Brooks: All About Running.

Brooks is a brand with only one thing on their mind: running. Their passion for logging miles and shaving off seconds comes through in their footwear; Brooks shoes are some of the most trusted sneakers in the world designed by those dedicated to running.

The Journey to The Beginning

Though they’ve been around since 1914, it took nearly a century for Brooks to realize their passion for making running shoes. During the 20th century, Brooks made all things footwear, from bath shoes to ballet slippers, and baseball cleats to roller skates. It wasn’t until the rise of running as a sport in the ’70s that Brooks got into the running business. In 1974, they created their first true running shoe: the Brooks Villanova. Fast forward to 1999 and the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 1 is on the market and changing the running game. Riding the momentum of this success, Brooks took a bold stride into the millennium: from then on, they would only focus on running.

Further, Faster, Healthier

With their mind set on miles, Brooks began pumping out inventions, developments, and products made for the trail ahead. Meticulously designed to meet the runner’s needs, Brooks running shoes are filled with patented technology built to compliment the body’s biomechanics for faster times, further distances, and healthier bodies. While all Brooks shoes are able to level up any run, a few key models boast the latest technology from Brooks.

Adrenaline GTS 19

The Adrenaline GTS is a tried and true legend, and the latest iteration gives the icon an important upgrade. The Adrenaline GTS 19 features Brooks’ GuideRails holistic support system, a midsole technology that helps to align the feet and the knees for a natural stride while limiting excess movement.

Ghost 11 & Levitate 2

The Brooks Ghost 11 was given the Runner’s World Editor’s Choice award for a reason. Brooks’ Segmented Crash Pad ensures a smooth heel-to-toe transition while you’re tearing through your route.

Equipped with DNA AMP, Brooks’ most responsive midsole cushioning, the Brooks Levitate 2 is built to give back all the energy you put into your run. The midsole absorbs the impact of your step for a comfortable ride while also returning that energy back to your stride. The Levitate series isn’t only great for hitting 5K PRs though. The Brooks Levitate 2 LE features a smooth suede upper and glossy midsole for a stylish shoe that can also hold its own with any comfy chic outfit.

Happy Miles Ahead

Over the years, Brooks has expanded their shoe selection to support runners wherever their routes may take them, from roads to trails, track competitions to evening walks. In short, if you can run on it, Brooks has a shoe made for it. Brooks also makes running apparel, so they can make sure their athletes are comfortable from head to toe. For Brooks though, there is always more they can do to perfect the running shoe. Since their dedication to the sport in 2000, Brooks’ sole focus has been on tomorrow’s run, and how to make it better.
