Pod Tec® : Podular Technology : Midsole/Outsole a configurations system in the mid/out sole to enables the shoe to bend and flex. | |
Pod Tec®, MC : Motion Control Podular Technology : The focus of this design is on maximum motion control and flexibility. | |
PureProject™ : A tribute to runners with a sense of adventure for a more radically redesigned shoes which are lightweight, flexible materials merge with smart design to naturally align your stride and empower every push-off. So unleash your feet full potential with the aid of the PureProject from Brooks. | |
Stable Pod : A midsole and outsole design engineered to set the foot up for an balanced position for an efficient heel to toe-off motion. Providing stability and responsiveness. |
• Upper • |
3D Fit Print : Strategically placed overlays printed on shoe upper to provide a light-weight seamless and secure fit. | |
Adjustable Saddle : A dynamic stretchy easily adjustable wrap saddle the perfect fit across insteps, enhancing feel and performance. | |
Element™ Lining : Place along the underside of the shoe's upper to aid in moisture transfer and comfort. | |
Heel Cradle : Rearfoot cradle optimises the fit at the heel and gives more direction and stability. | |
HVAC™ : Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning : Engineered to quickly and effectively move heat and moisture to the vented areas of the shoe for an easy escape. Thermo-conducting, silver-infused X-Static® fabric is placed in the shoe's hottest areas, creating a chimney through which heat is effectively run out of the shoe. The result is a dry, thermally balanced footbed and comfort on the run. | |
Hydrophobic Foam : Foam which doesn’t absorb water when wet, placed in the shoe tongue and collar lining. | |
Insole Board : A lasting board made of polymer alloy foam, formulated to resist compression and rebound more quickly than standard EVA, offering efficient cushioning and flexibility. | |
Internal Support Saddle : Located in the midfoot with the purpose of providing a more secure midfoot fit. | |
Last, Anatomical : Last which mimics the shape of foot's contours, to minimizes the usage of material to provide true support and a glove-like feel. | |

Last, Cushole S-257™ Combinaiton : Shoe last consist of S-257™ and a rearfoot fiberboard for rigidity with a layer of advanced foam for underfoot comfort. | |
Last, Strobel : The upper is attached to a thin material that is patterned on the shape or silhouette of the midsole. Traditional strobel lasts use a thin cloth material, while newer variations use a thin sheet of EVA for a more cushioned feel. | |
Mesh, Breathable : A feather-lightweight breathable mesh to provide a durable comfort around the foot. | |
Mesh, Element™ : A microfiber construction that provides strong protection against the elements in a light and quiet fabric. Element™ maintains full breathability and durable comfort. | |
Midfoot Wrap : Is asymmetrical and is filled in on the medial side to offer great support. | |
Nav Band : An elastic band which wraps over the instep to creates a much comfortable and assured arch fit. Offering additional support assurance when needed | |
Sockliner, BioMoGo® Profile : Placed underfoot and is made of for cushioning and forms a contoured support sensation. | |
Sockliner, Profile : Placed underfoot and is made of BioMoGo for cushioning and forms a contoured support sensation. | |
Sockliner, Ultimate : Polyurethane foam provides superior, durable cushioning. | |
Split Toe : Midsole design to isolate the big toe. Independently empowers the big toe to engage the runner's natural stability, creating a more efficient and aligned toe off. | |
Tongue Tied Lacing System : Lock the tongue in place to prevent migration. | |
Wanganui™ : This two-sided fabric technology creates an upper with the ideal combination of water repellency and moisture transfer. The upper's exterior consists of a nylon fabric treated with a durable water-repellant (DWR) finish for outstanding weather protection. The inside of the upper features an advanced polyester fabrication that quickly moves moisture away from the foot to provide dry comfort and temperature regulation. |
• Midsole • |
Ballistic Rock Shield : The shield is composed of a thermoplastic EVA sheath and placed under the forefoot to protect against stone bruising. | |
Caterpillar Crash Pad : Segmented impact absportion pad crash pad that customizes to the runners lay down, which offers the right amount of cushioning and stability for a smooth transition from heel-to-toe. | |
Dynamic Arch Saddle : Wraps over the mid-foot and its conneced to the midsole to provide superior control and support. | |
DNA™ : Provides a customized ride for runners of all sizes and speeds, dispersing impact and providing ideal comfort and protection as the pace changes. | |
DRB™ : Diagonal Roll Bar : High density foam positioned on the medial side of the midsole to reduce pronation. | |
DRB Accel™ : Diagonal Roll Bar : To promote natural movement and provide torsional midfoot support. | |
Dual Stability Arch Pod : Positioned at the bottom of the midfoot and offers additional stability at the arch. | |
E-Fusion™ : e-0™ : A new engineered outsole material that delivers unsurpassed skid and abrasion resistance compared to traditional outsole materials : e-1™ : Engineered to dampen and dissipate shock upon heel impact : e-2™ : A highly resilient compound with a superior spring rate. Positioned into the forefoot, the result is a toe-off that's truly explosive. | |
Extended PDRB™ : Progressive Diagonal Rollbar : Begins at the medial heel and extends through to the medial forefoot. PDRB is a tri-density BioMoGo construction which is designed to smoothly reduce excess pronation. | |
HydroFlow® : Liquid silicon-based system cushioning system chamber dampens shock at impact and dynamically disperses fluid at a controlled rate around the heel cushioning, stabilizing and rebounding on every stride. | |
HydroFlow®, Forefoot : Located under where the metatarsal head region of the foot rests in the shoe, used to attenuate shock and dampen forces. | |
HydroFlow®, ST : Located in the heel and is cushioning device which consists of a chamber filled with viscous fluid. Hydroflow ST is designed toLoacted in the heel to attenuate shock, dampen impact forces and provide addational heel stability. | |
Hyper Pod™ : Configuration sets feet in a balanced and efficient position from heel strike to toe-off, providing maximum stability and flexibility. | |
Ideal Heel : Heel construction which was designed to shift the foot contact points forward thus aligning the joints, to optimize better energy return. | |
MoGo® : Brooks claims, MoGo offers 40 percent more cushioning and gives a runner 22 percent more return of energy - the "spring" in one's step - than Brooks' former midsole. Substance 257. MoGo not only represents a giant leap forward in midsole material performance for Brooks, it also entails an evolved method of production. Compression Molded Preform (CMP) is an efficient, precise production process in which, rather than being cut out of large sheets of material in the traditional method, midsoles are cast in individual molds, resulting in 50% less waste. The CMP process also increases consistency by an incredible 200%. Less variability between midsoles ensures that runners can count on enjoying the same feel pair after pair. | |
MoGo®, Bio : Fully biodegradable midsole foam for footwear. Once a pair of Brooks shoes with BioMoGo has reached an enclosed landfill, it will begin to biodegrade. In roughly 20 years the midsoles will be completely converted by common soil microbes into useful humus and nutrients. That’s about 50 times faster than a standard midsole degradation. | |
MoGo®, Bio w DNA™ : Blended version of BioMogo & DNA smart cushioning which is adaptively tunes the cushioning and responsiveness to the specific needs of each and every runner : | |
MoGo®, Stacked Bio : Durable biodegradable, durable "tuned" cushioning ustom midsole which offers a custom ride that better corresponds with the runners gender and weight. | |
Omega Flex Groove : To enhance flexibility and improve gait efficiency- for the smoothest, most comfortable run possible. | |
Omni Groove : Groove technology in the forefoot offers a more compliant ride, enhancing both traction and toe-off. | |
PDRB™ : Progressive Diagonal Rollbar : Dual Density Post is bio-mechanically engineered to allow progressive pronation control. | |
Pivot Posts : Medial posting shaped to adapt varied terrain surfaces, which helps keeps the shoe from toppling over. | |
Pivot System : A 4 points of ground contact in both the rearfoot and forefoot stabilizing system acting as a full-suspension to help keep the foot neutral on uneven terrain. | |
S257™ : Substance 257 : Brooks unique midsole compound is formulated to resist com-pression and rebound more quickly after impact. | |
