Sports Nutrition from the USA and Where to Order It

Any physically active person, any gym-goer, and especially an athlete, needs good sports nutrition. The kind that gives you strength and contains all the essential micronutrients. There's just one problem: in Russia, such nutrition is outrageously expensive. Three to four thousand rubles for a large jar of whey protein!? Thousands of rubles for a pack of gainer? Nearly a thousand for a few servings of amino acids? And if you're bulking up or prepping for a competition and need to eat 6-8 times a day? You could go broke!

Jackets and Down Coats from the USA: Which Are the Best?

Quality clothing in America is very affordable (especially compared to Russia). Even Nike and Adidas products, if you just go to their US website, will be sold for 30-50% less. And for some brands, like DKNY, the difference reaches 200%. The same goes for outerwear. If a great down jacket sells for 50,000 rubles in Russia, you can buy the same jacket in the US for $250-$300. The savings are very substantial.

It's better to buy new collections before winter, but the biggest savings come in spring and summer. Almost every store here runs very serious sales. Sometimes they reach 90%. For the price of one warm jacket, you can get ten!

 

The country is home to many top brands that don't ship their products to Russia at all (so they are only sold by resellers). We've picked out a few of the most famous ones for you, whose products you definitely can't go wrong with.

PUMA. TOP 10 best sneaker models available to everyone!

The world leaders among sneakers are considered to be Nike, Adidas, and Puma. Nike and Adidas emerged as a result of a rivalry between brothers in the 1940s. Adolf and Rudolf Dassler founded the Dassler Brothers Shoe Factory in 1924, but 20 years later the relationship soured, and the pair split up: the first founded Adidas, the second founded Ruda (before changing the name to Puma).

How to order authentic sports goods from America to Russia

Many people are surprised by this, but you can still freely order goods from America to Russia. This applies to gadgets, clothing, and sports equipment. Directly from stores like Decathlon, Amazon, Finish Line, and eBay, you can buy many sports items that aren't sold in Russia. There, they cost much less than they ever did in Russia, and you are guaranteed to get the real product, not a Chinese knockoff. Everyone knows that if you need good sports gear — whether for skiing, golf, hockey, basketball, or diving — many quality items can only be found on the American market.

On top of that, buying in the US has recently become even cheaper. Especially if you're getting clothing, footwear, or equipment priced under $300 per item. The limits have been lifted and duties reduced. The customs threshold used to start at 200 euros per package; now it's 1000 euros. That's why buyers of, say, expensive electronics have started using mail forwarders much more often.
