Until we all run on equal ground
The shoes and gear we develop, the experiences we create, and the partnerships we build should contribute to a more inclusive and accessible running community.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion
We believe in the power of a diverse running community that includes people of different races, abilities, genders, ages, sexual orientations, body types, and circumstances. We are pursuing practices that will achieve equity in our business and our sport — so everyone feels a sense of belonging as their own, authentic selves.

- Achieve at least 50% women representation at all levels of Brooks US employees by 2025
- Reach at least 30% BIPOC representation at all levels of Brooks US employees by 2025
- Maintain our Human Rights Campaign “Corporate Equality Index” of 100 / 100
Community engagement
The run can do more than improve health — it can improve well-being. We hope to create this positive change by listening and engaging with runners in their communities.

- Dedicate more than $5M per year in cash and gear to social impact programs
- Focus on partnerships that make the benefits of the run accessible to everyone
Responsible sourcing
An ethical global supply chain starts with factories and suppliers who share our values and our commitments to worker well-being, sustainable workplaces, and safety.

- 100% of Tier 1 factories achieve and maintain a verified Higg FSLM score greater than 80 by 2025
- 80% (by dollar spend) of Tier 2 factories achieve and maintain a verified Higg FSLM score greater than 70 by 2025
- 100% of Tier 1 and 80% (by dollar spend) of Tier 2 factories achieve and maintain a verified Higg FEM Level 3 by 2025
