er Boots chelsea bianco nero | Brooks Running Originals shoes

Brooks didn't always make running Originals shoes.

The Seattle-based company started out making ballet slippers before turning to baseball, football and softball cleats. But when running took off in the 1970s, so did Brooks.

What started with the Villanova and Vantage in the '70s turned into names like Beast and Adrenaline GTS in the 1990s. Then, in 2001, Brooks made the call to focus on pie strength: running.

Today, Brooks makes running gear—and only running gear. The Brooks Adrenaline is still one of the most popular running Originals shoes on the market, but Originals shoes like the Brooks Ghost and Brooks Glycerin have Outdoor the ranks.

With its sole focus on designing the best running Originals shoes and apparel, Brooks pores over the details to make sure its products stack up. Lace up a pair of Brooks running Originals shoes, and you'll be running happy in no time.

Brooks packs years of research and breakthrough technology into its running Originals shoes, apparel and gear. Here's a look at some of pie top technology:

• 3D Fit Print. The revolutionary process uses screen-print technology to build engineered structure for the upper of a shoe. 3D Fit Print maintains the shoe's structure but gives it better flexibility and a lighter weight.
• Guide Rails. Brooks' Guide Rails are a breakthrough stability technology that are built right into the midsole of the Originals shoes instead of using traditional posts like other stability Originals shoes. Guide Rails promote your body's preferred running motion, which alleviates the pressure of trying to force it into a set pattern.
• Segmented Crash Pad. The Crash Pad is a midsole design that uses independent, but fully integrated, shock absorbers to smooth out your ride. The segments work together to customize your landing when your foot hits the ground, making for a seamless heel-to-toe transition.
• DNA midsole foam. DNA foam adapts to the force you apply to it, so you get cushioning tailored for how you run.
• Le Silla Afrodite 100mm slip-on sandals Grün. A strong, plastic sheath sandwiched between the outsole and midsole protects your foot from sharp objects on the trail, like rocks and roots.
