Brooks Running

At Brooks Running, our core philosophy is 'Runner First.' We believe in the transformative power of the run and are dedicated to inspiring people to run and enhancing their running experience. For over a century, we have pushed the limits of motion science, engineering, and technology to create the best running shoes, apparel, and accessories that help runners go longer, further, faster, and happier. Our company culture is what defines us and bonds us together, driving our success. We live this culture daily through our brand values: Runner First, Word is Bond, Champion Heart, There is no “I” in Run, and Keep Moving. This means we always solve for the runner, do what we say we will, give it our all, are generous with our humanity, and find a way to keep moving every day, because joy is kinetic.

Our global headquarters in Seattle, Washington, is situated right along the Burke-Gilman running and biking trail, reflecting our deep connection to the running community. We also have a significant presence in Amsterdam, serving runners in over 50 countries worldwide. We are committed to sustainability and corporate social responsibility, actively contributing to initiatives like gender equity and BIPOC representation, and setting ambitious goals for recycled materials and waste reduction. We foster a collaborative and authentic environment where employees are encouraged to bring their passion for running to work. Many of us are runners ourselves, and we find that running brings us closer as a team. Our dedication extends to understanding the biomechanics of human movement, with our research lab meticulously studying how to prevent injury, enhance comfort, and improve performance. This research informs the development of innovative technologies like our GuideRails® support system and DNA cushioning, designed to optimize each runner's unique stride. Ultimately, everything we do, from the gear we design to the experiences we create, is aimed at helping you achieve that feeling of being more alive that a good run provides.
