More about Brooks

Why is Brooks a WIR DENKEN UM brand?

The running specialists’ vision is to provide the best running gear in the world while significantly reducing the company's own environmental impact and creating positive social change. As a WIR DENKEN UM brand, Brooks stands out in the following ways:

- The company is committed to accountability throughout the supply chain

- It is aware of the impact its business activities have on the environment and systematically analyzes and prioritizes risks

- Brooks prides itself on ecologically friendly, resource-saving production

Climate neutrality by 2040

Brooks plans to become carbon neutral in all of its business operations in just under 20 years - 10 years ahead of the goal of the Paris Climate Agreement. The company has already taken an important step in the right direction: recycled materials. Brooks partially converted its collection of functional shorts, tights, shirts, jackets and run bras to recycled materials in time for spring 2021. The company intends to process only recycled materials as of 2023. Brooks believes that waste generated during the production of footwear is partially decided during product development. That is why the running specialist focuses on innovative designs and more sustainable materials such as biodegradable midsoles, sustainably grown cotton and certifications like bluesign® and OEKO-TEX. Brooks goes even further and inspires people to lead active and healthy lives with their motto, “Run happy.” Brooks uses its Run Happy events to support social organizations and promote diversity, equality and inclusion in sports and everyday life.

"We believe that one run can change your day, your life, even the whole world."

Running is a gift. Run Happy.

Every day with a run is a better day. Every run pushes you closer to the best form of yourself. And you always end your run in a better place than you left behind.

Brooks is the happiest running shoe manufacturer on the planet, developing and distributing performance running shoes, apparel and accessories in more than 50 countries worldwide. Brooks' aim is to inspire as many people as possible to run and be active. This aim is supported by the "Run Happy" philosophy.

The planet is our home.

Over 100 million people run outside, so it's important that Brooks also cares about the world we share. That means to work on minimizing the environmental impact, making a positive social impact, and being transparent in areas where they can still improve. Brooks always gives something back and provides reasons for people to keep moving.
