The Brooks Glycerin 7. Updated for 2009. The Glycerin offers a plush comfortable ride with exceptional cushioning and great flexibility to allow for a smooth heel to toe transition.
Suitable for a neutral runner, the Brooks Glycerin 7 (in brief) uses the double layered MOGO midsole. Sandwiched e-fusion in the heel and forefoot will deliver a the ideal blend of cushioning, comfort and support. More details below.
Plush gets plusher when the new Glycerin® 7 hits the ground—running, of course. With two layers of BioMoGo stacked in the heel and shock-dampening e-1 material sandwiched between, the Glycerin® 7 is already a luxuriously cushioned ride. Add to that another layer of BioMoGo (see below) in the forefoot for extra softness and resilience, and this high-end neutral shoe takes home the plush prize.
Brooks’ BioMoGo is the world’s first fully biodegradable midsole foam for footwear. Once a pair of Brooks shoes with BioMoGo has reached an enclosed landfill, it will begin to biodegrade. In roughly 20 years the midsoles will be completely converted by common soil microbes into useful humus and nutrients. That’s about 50 times faster than a standard midsole degradation. (Traditional Ethylene Vinyl Acetate™ [EVA] midsoles can last up to 1,000 years in a landfill.)
Brooks believes that truly sustainable companies are built one step at a time. We have already taken actions down this pathway, but we know it’s a lifelong race. BioMoGo is the latest innovation in a string of more eco-friendly footwear materials and practice introductions, including our Compression Molded Perform (CMP) midsole manufacturing process, HPR Green rubber, and the reduction of PVC. We’ve earned the respect from our industry; leading running magazine Runner’s World granted Brooks its 2006 Runner’s World International “Innovation Award” for our environmental stewardship efforts. We’ve undertaken the long but important process of looking at all aspects of our business and finding ways to make them more sustainable.
