prAna Staff Review

Prana is known for both climbing and yoga wear. I think Climbing and Yoga go hand in hand. To be a stong climber, you must be not only stong in muscle, but balanced in the mind. Not to mention flexible!

My favorite piece of Prana wear is the Mojo short. I like these so much I bought 4 pair and cycle through them as they get dirty in the summer. They don't hinder movement while I'm climbing, are super comfortable, and are stylish enough for work (at the Northern Lights and Spire climbing center) and for a night out on the town. While I'm a minimalist at heart, this is one piece of clothing worth having a few of.
