What to Look for in Brooks Running Shoes
Your Brooks running shoes should match your needs as an athlete. Consider the movement of your foot. Runners seeking to counterbalance an inward or outward roll of the foot need shoes that provide support for their foot type. Also, consider whether you want extra cushioning or a minimal, lightweight style for more natural contact between your feet and the ground.
Maximize your run with Brooks shoes designed for your gait, running style and running environment.
- Neutral Brooks Shoes: Help maintain your natural gait with an increased level of shock absorption along your course.
- Stability Brooks Shoes: Optimal for runners who experience a moderate inward roll of the foot. These shoes offer added midsole cushioning and support that help prevent the arch's tendency to collapse.
- Motion-Control Brooks Shoes: Maximum stability designed to prevent an exaggerated inward roll of the foot.
- Brooks Road-Running Shoes: Light, flexible and designed for paved or packed surfaces. Look for footwear that will provide cushioning and support during repetitive motions.
- Brooks Trail Running Shoes: Designed for off-road runners who need additional support and traction. Look for abrasion-resistant materials that will stand up to rough terrain.
