Dopey Running Costume Assembly

Assembling your Dopey inspired running costume is pretty self-explanatory...

Embrace the Sparkle with Sparkle Athletic Running Skirts:

The first step to creating the perfect runDisney costume is to select your Sparkle Athletic skirt. Capture the essence of Dopey by choosing a Sparkle Athletic skirt in shades of lime - our Neon Lime or lime running skirt would be perfect! The shimmering fabric will add the perfect touch of sparkle. Plus, the lightweight fabric of the skirts will keep you comfortable throughout your race.

Find a Magical Top:

Complete your Dopey inspired look by selecting a lime running top to pair with your chosen Sparkle Athletic skirt. Consider something that is moisture-wicking, & we'd suggest you opt for a design that allows for ease of movement while running. 

Finish Off Your Look with a Running Visor:

One of our visors is the perfect way to complete your runDisney costume. The visor will not only shield your eyes from the sun but also add a touch of sparkle and magic to your running attire.

Dopey Running Costume Accessories

No runDisney costume is complete without a sprinkle of fairy tale magic. Consider adding an accessory (or two) to elevate your running ensemble:

• matching lime running shoes (while they aren’t necessary, matching running shoes really are the “icing on the cake”) - if you can't find lime running shoes (or prefer wearing your favorite pair), you can cover your shoes in lime KT Tape, or opt for lime shoelaces to add a pop of color.
• {one} pair of lime compression socks
• {one} belt & buckle
• {two} gold buttons
