- Part of the PureProject™ Collection from Brooks®.
- Recently awarded "Best Buy" in the March 2012 issue 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.
- Built for the neutral to mild over-pronator looking to step into the minimalist category without losing the comfort of reliable cushioning and support.
- Breathable air mesh upper.
- Lightweight microfiber synthetic overlays provide structural support.
- Wide Elastic Nav Band wraps across the foot, providing arch support without the underfoot bulk.
- 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.
- Center strike pod helps guide the foot to a natural landing zone.
- Midsole Offset: 4mm.
- 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: 8 oz
- Product measurements were taken using size 8, width B - Medium. Please note that measurements may vary by size.

I love these shoes! I've been working out for almost 2 years and every time I try to wear shoes I throw them off within minutes of beginning my workout and workout barefoot. Not with these. This shoe has a wider toe box and it's springy. I'm more of a minimalist shoe person and can't stand big heel to toe drops and all the extra cushion running shoes give you that cause pain. No pain when I'm running and no numb toes. These aren't the most minimalist shoe on the market by a long shot, but I do sure love them. Just wish they had better color options. I use them for PUMP/Asylum/P90x2/running. Love them. Thank you Brooks for making a great shoe.

I bought these to replace a pair of Brooks Green Silence (which I loved). I was looking for a minimalist shoe for Crossfit. These shoes do not work well for weight lifting or squats because it changed my balance. I had to take my shoes off. The shoes are snug and don't breathe well. I wouldn't buy them again.

Since I have had foot pain for years, these are the first shoe I have not used an orthotic. Love the roomy toe box! Was surprised that the heel was low...but liked it. I hope Brooks keep making shoes with these qualities! Put them on the first time and for some reason, took off running. Not all that far, you see I'm almost 70.

Just bought these shoes after months of trying to find a light shoe with good cushioning. These are great! I teach group fitness mama, run and lift weights and this shoe is great for all of my needs. The size runs a little small, but I always get workout shoes a 1/2 size up anyway. I add an insert to all of my shoes too and the fit is still very comfy. Good wide toebox so my feet feel good with all the side and lateral movements in class. Colors are great too. I know some people like the plain, but I'm loving all the vibrant choices. Happy feet again and as always, loving Zappos' quick and awesome customer service!

Wow. These are the best running shoes I've tried in my short (2-year) stint as a runner. They're definitely minimal in terms of feeling light and neutral (I don't feel like there's too much shoe trying to correct my foot). At the same time, there's good support in the arch and the upper holds my foot in place without feeling constrictive because of the flexible band over the top. My favorite feature is the cushiony bouncy sole that makes even my runs on pavement super comfortable and since I got them, my creaky knees and toe numbness have all but disappeared. I do feel like these run a tad small (I'm usually a perfect 5.5, and the PureFlow 5.5 is just barely long enough for my toes), so if you're between sizes, order up.

I recently started to run naturally. These shoes have good cushioning in the forefoot for forefoot striking. I have found the shoes to be less constrictive than the Brooks pure cadence. I have also found them to have more cushioning than in the Brooks pure grit, which I also like. I believe that of this shoe collection by Brooks there is a shoe that everyone could wear.
