Description
View the Video Description for this product! (Please note that the color shown in the video may no longer be available.)- Free your run and take the time to really feel the terrain by slipping into the PureConnect®.
- Part of the PureProject™ Collection from Brooks®.
- Recently awarded "Best Debut" in the winter 2012 Shoe Guide of Runner's World magazine.
- Brooks developed five unique features called the Ideal Technologies (Nav Band, Toe Flex, BioMOGO DNA, Ideal Heel and Anatomical Last) that are featured in every PureProject shoe. Combined, these technologies are designed to promote an efficient, natural stride by encouraging a more forward foot strike, which places the runner over their center of gravity, helps align the body and reduces harmful stress.
- The lightest shoe in the collection. Built for the neutral runner seeking a minimalist running shoe that places little between the runner and the ground.
- Highly breathable open mesh upper.
- Ultralightweight synthetic overlays provide light structural support.
- Elastic Nav Band wraps across the instep for a secure, glove-like fit.
- Lightly padded tongue and contoured heel cup for added comfort.
- Lightweight foam insole offers light underfoot plush.
- BioMoGo DNA is a blend of earth-friendly BioMoGo and responsive Brooks DNA, and has a gender-friendly cushioning design, making for a dynamic ride.
- Midsole Offset: 4mm.
- Extended Toe Flex - The split-toe feature augments forefoot flexibility and promotes the big toe to engage the runner's natural stability and power during push-off.
- Ideal Heel - The heel is slimmed down to encourage contact points to shift forward, aligning the joints and creating optimal energy return.
- Built on an anatomical last, the shoe's shape contours to your foot, promoting support and a glove-like fit.
- Measurements:
- Heel Height: 1 in
- Weight: 6 oz
- Product measurements were taken using size 8, width B - Medium. Please note that measurements may vary by size.

These are great shoes! I am a marathoner and have little natural padding on my feet. These shoes allow me the barefoot motion with a little padding. Women's color choices are questionable as the blue is ghastly. I am concerned about temperature in summer with darker shoes. We will see...

These shoes are super narrow and the back rubbed my heel raw when running long distances. I have run in Brooks shoes for years and am really disappointed with this product.

I usually run in the VIVOBarefoot shoes, so these shoes felt like I had balloons under my feet. I ordered a half size up which I highly recommend. Many people have said that the heel rubs, but I didn't have a problem. I usually have a problem with the heel rubbing too, so I don't know why a lot of people are. Although they are very cushy, they are very light and my feet were very happy when running. I'm used to minimalist shoes, so when I read that these were minimalist I had to try them. I believe they are far from it. I felt like Tigger running. Very bouncy. But after about 500 feet I got used to it. If you're looking for a shoe that has amazing cushion and lightweight, I would go with these. But if you're looking for a minimalist shoe, these are a little too cushioned for that.

I just got these after starting a running program at age 50. I love these shoes. They are super light and very comfortable. I usually wear an 8 and the 8 felt just right. I have an average width foot.

Three words: Best. Shoe. Ever! I love these Brooks! They are so lightweight, and even cuter in person. There is so much cushion in the sole, it's incredible! I wear a size nine and I think they make my feet look smaller than most other tennis shoes do. In one day I got several compliments on them. Another benefit - great arch support. I usually wear custom orthotics to support my collapsing arches, but these shoes do the trick all by themselves. However, the insole is removable is someone wanted to wear different inserts or orthotics in the shoe.
