Brooks Running Shoes and Apparel
From its humble beginnings making ballet slippers and bathing shoes in 1914, Brooks Running, commonly known as simply Brooks, has evolved into one of the biggest names in performance footwear and apparel for runners worldwide.
While the company spent its first 60 years focusing on footwear for other sports like baseball and football, Brooks began shifting focus toward running shoes in the early 1970s before dedicating its future to technical running exclusively in 2001. Starting with inaugural models like the Villanova and Vantage, Brooks has continued to innovate and push the boundaries of sneaker technology.
Brooks is now known for making shoes that offer speed and a lightweight ride, revolutionary MoGo and BioMoGo (the world’s first fully biodegradable midsole) technology and comfortable running shoes that don’t sacrifice durability.
Brooks Shoes Every Type of Runner
Looking for a performance-driven, everyday running shoe? Check out the Brooks Ghost 13. This versatile men’s and women’s sneaker offers a smooth and comfortable run thanks to features like the DNA LOFT cushioning extended through the midsole for ultimate heel-to-toe transitions.
If you’re an avid runner who’s constantly pounding the pavement, consider shopping the Brooks’ Adrenaline series. These technical running shoes are built with GuideRails technology and an engineered mesh upper to provide structure and protect the most injury-prone parts of the body – especially the knees.
For casual runners in need of a lightweight addition to their sneaker collection, both the Brooks Launch 8 and Brooks Levitate 4 offer soft, breathable uppers and midsole technology that deliver quick starts and optimal energy return.
Brooks Running Apparel
Until the 1990s, Brooks was a shoes-only brand, but that changed in '97 when the Run Happy company entered the performance apparel industry. Today, long-distance runners to early morning walkers can shop high-quality, durable, and stylish running tops, tanks, sports bras, shorts, tights, and more that coordinate well with the Brooks running shoes on their feet!
