Before the Adrenaline GTS became a household name, Brooks was already deeply invested in biomechanical research. The early iterations focused on traditional motion control, using rigid posts to correct overpronation. However, Brooks' engineers and sports scientists observed that this approach could be too restrictive. The breakthrough came with the understanding that support shouldn't fight the runner's natural motion but guide it intelligently. This philosophy led to the development of the proprietary GuideRail® Support System. Instead of just focusing on the foot, this holistic technology focuses on the knee—the most injury-prone joint for runners. The system provides support only when needed, allowing for natural movement while preventing excess hip and knee movement that can lead to injury.

Evolution Through Listening

The Adrenaline GTS lineage is a testament to Brooks' commitment to continuous improvement. Each new version has incorporated feedback from a global community of runners, professional athletes, and podiatrists. The midsole technology evolved from basic EVA to advanced DNA LOFTBioMoGo DNAEngineered Mesh
