Brooks Ghost Lite Sock
Great fit that stays put, with just the right cushioning and supportive arch comfort. Perfect for runs or long walks. The only drawback? The fabric isn’t as soft as I’d like — a bit scratchy against the skin.
Pros: Excellent fit, good cushion, comfy arch support
Cons: Fabric could be softer
Brooks Run Bra Dare Crossback 2.0
Excellent fit with great support, and the straps are super comfortable — no digging in, even on long runs. My only suggestion? Print the size inside the bra. Once the tags are gone, it’s easy to forget!
Pros: Excellent fit, great support, comfy straps
Cons: Size not printed on bra
Brooks Propel Mesh Hat
This hat is a winner! The adjustable string is super easy to use and stays secure, the mesh design breathes beautifully, and it’s incredibly lightweight — you barely notice it’s there.
Pros: Easy, secure adjustment; breathable; ultra-lightweight
Brooks Women’s Chaser 3″ Short
These shorts are fantastic for running — the fit is perfect, the underwear lining is super comfortable, and the flexible fabric moves effortlessly with every stride. I also loved the back waistband pocket, which was surprisingly handy. My only complaint is the placement of the zippered pocket — it’s quite deep, so heavier items like keys hang low near the seam, which can feel awkward.
Pros: Perfect fit, comfy lining, flexible fabric, useful back waistband pocket
Cons: Zippered pocket hangs contents too low
Brooks Launch 11
The Launch 11 delivers a smooth, energetic ride with great rebound and solid arch support. Cushioning is spot-on, especially around the heel and Achilles — soft, comfortable, and just where you need it. My only minor gripe is that the shoe felt a bit stiff out of the box, but it loosened up nicely after a few runs.
Pros: Good rebound, solid arch support, targeted cushioning, soft heel/Achilles comfort
Cons: Slightly stiff at first
