Why We’re Confident Enough to Give Away Our Anti-Chafe Cream for Free

At 55 Miles, we believe that the best products don’t need complicated marketing—they just need to be experienced. That’s exactly why we’re willing to give away our Anti-Chafe Cream for free when someone leaves a review on Amazon. It might sound bold, but this confidence comes from thousands of miles of testing, refining, and personal experience on the trails.

This isn’t a gimmick, and it’s not a short-term tactic. It’s a core part of who we are and what we stand for as a company: build the best products possible, give value first, and let the results speak for themselves.


The Story Behind 55 Miles

55 Miles wasn’t created in a boardroom or drawn up on a business plan.
It started in the mountains, on long training runs, during races where everything hurts, in moments where friction threatens to stop the adventure. It started because I needed something that actually worked.

I’m an ultra-runner. I’ve run everything from local marathons to long mountain ultramarathons that push your body through 8, 10, and even 12 hours of movement. And in those miles, one thing becomes clear very quickly:
If you can’t protect your skin, you can’t finish the race.

Chafing is one of the most common reasons runners quit ultras. It takes people out mentally and physically. A hotspot at mile 12 becomes agony at mile 40. A little irritation early can ruin the back half of the race.

So I started experimenting.

I tested blends during long runs, on hot days, cold days, days with river crossings, days with 10,000 feet of elevation gain, and days where my gear rubbed so badly that I knew I needed something better.

For over a year, I mixed ingredients, melted batches, compared formulas, and did A/B tests on both feet or both sides of my body.

One side got a competitor’s blend.
The other side got mine.
Hour after hour, run after run, race after race.

And every time I improved the formula, I took it back into the mountains to test it again.

Eventually, I landed on something I trusted so much that I stopped using any other brand.

That’s when 55 Miles was born.


Why Our Anti-Chafe Cream Is Different

There are a lot of anti-chafe sticks and creams on the market. Some work okay. Some melt too quickly. Some feel like wax. Some leave a weird residue. Some burn. Some don’t last for more than 5 miles.

The 55 Miles Anti-Chafe Cream was built differently—because it was built for ultrarunners, not for marketing shelves.

Here’s what makes it stand out:

1. A Thick, Long-Lasting Formula

Designed to stay on the skin even during hours of movement, sweating, heat, and humidity.
No thin, watered-down formulas. No waxy film. No greasiness.

2. All-Natural Ingredients

Simple. Clean. Effective.
Made to protect the skin without irritating it.

3. Tested in Real Conditions

Not in a lab.
Not on a treadmill.
But on trails, mountains, mud, rain, and long runs that push you physically and mentally.

4. A Formula That Prevents the “Burn”

One of the biggest fears people have is applying anti-chafe after irritation begins.
During testing, I even applied ingredients directly to raw skin (not recommended—just testing!) to see which ones caused burning.
Our formula was built to stay gentle.

5. It Works for Every Athlete

Runners, hikers, cyclists, triathletes, gym-goers, and anyone who struggles with friction—this blend was made for all active lifestyles.


Why We’re Giving It Away For Free

The simple truth:
We know it works.
And when someone tries it once, they’ll feel the difference immediately.

But in a saturated market, with so many brands and gimmicks, people are skeptical—rightfully so.
A free product removes the hesitation. It lets people experience the results personally.

Here’s our belief:
If you try 55 Miles Anti-Chafe Cream once, you’ll come back again—not because of marketing, not because of hype, but because it works.

We cover the cost of the product.
You just cover shipping.
And you get real, long-lasting skin protection that could save your next race or training session.


Our Mission: Protect Athletes From Preventable Pain

Chafing and blisters are two of the most common—and most preventable—issues in endurance sports.
They stop runners from finishing races.
They ruin training cycles.
They steal the joy from adventures.

Our mission is to end that.

We want athletes to run farther, hike longer, and enjoy more movement without worrying about skin breakdown.
We want people to look forward to miles, not fear the discomfort.

Every product we make, including Anti-Chafe Cream and Blister Blocker, is built around one idea:

Movement should feel good.


Why Reviews Matter (and Why We Don’t Fake Them)

Amazon reviews help new customers know what to expect—and help us improve the blend.
But here’s something important:

We don’t pay for reviews.
We don’t buy reviews.
We don’t pressure for 5-star reviews.

We simply give the product away and say:

“Try it. If it helps you, leave a review. If it doesn’t, tell us why.”

That honesty is crucial.
It’s how we continue improving.
It’s how we keep our brand grounded in real athlete experiences.
