Brooks Glycerin 8 PROFILE
Cushioning gets cushier in the new Glycerin® 8. Brooks DNA makes
its debut and raises the neutral bar by delivering a customized ride for
runners of all sizes and speeds. Working with BioMoGo, Brooks DNA
responds to your every step, dispersing impact and providing ideal comfort
and protection as the pace changes. If asked for the secret to your
improved endurance, just tell ‘em it’s genetic.
Brooks DNA – Individual molecules connected in strands and chains
that react to the amount of force placed on the foot.
BIOMOGO – We’ve taken the long-lasting cushioning of our MoGo midsole
and made it environmentally friendly. How, you ask? By adding a
non-toxic, natural additive to the MoGo compound that encourages
anaerobic microbes to munch away once it hits the landfill.
DRB® ACCEL – Enhances tunable torsion of the midfoot. Shank-like
thermoplastic devices vary from single units of a set modulus, to dualunit
versions of varied modulus (tuned with higher stiffness for medial
support, the lateral side less stiff to smooth the ride).
