Green Silence is one loud racing flat

The new Green Silence from Brooks isn't just a flashy competition shoe. It's also got one of the smallest (carbon) footprints of any shoe on the market.

Key green features:
  • BioMoGo, the world's first ever biodegradeable midsole for running
    shoes
  • 75% of the shoe's materials are post-consumer recycled
  • Biodegradeable insole and collar foams
  • Laces, gillies, and reinforced webbing are 100% post-consumer recycled
  • Water-based adhesives are used throughout
  • All dyes and colorants are non-toxic
  • Packaging is 100% post-consumer recycled
