Brooks running shoes

Brooks Cadence (2012)

This shoe is similar to the Brooks Flow: Natural running shoes with more cushioning. The difference? This shoe is made for the runner who needs a little more stability.

Brooks Grit (2012)

It's an off-road version and feels more like the Cadence, without the softer lateral side. What really makes this a trail shoe is its outsole design and an upper that is more durable.

Brooks Flow (2012)

The Flow has more midsole thickness than the Brooks Connect. Look at this if you like the idea of a lower ramp and a minimal shoe, but aren't quite ready for take the ultimate "natural" plunge.

Brooks Connect (2012)

This is the Pure Project model that comes closest to a minimalist shoe, but the sole is still too cushioned to fit squarely into the minimalist category. It's natural running with a bit more cushion.

Brooks Glycerin 9 (2012)

Forget the literary overreach by Brooks on the technical aspects of this shoe. The ecstasy exceeds the utility. Just wear the shoe. It's a very good update of the Glycerin line.

Brooks Ariel/Beast (2010)

In contrast to the storming hordes proclaiming natural gaits and barefoot running, the Brooks Beast stands its post, on its wall. Overpronation? Not on its watch.

Brooks Green Silence

Brooks is not known for shoes that shout at you, but, the Green Silence is a bold and garish racing flat from an otherwise conservative - even classic - shoe company.
