Our verdict

The Brooks challenge toolbag 1 is a solid shoe, and it's a standout among all other stability shoes in my arsenal. It's bouncy while others are stiff and it's cushy too! If there's a letdown to it, it's probably its weight. But with its tried-and-true performance on the road, it's one I can move past. Ultimately, it's THE shoe if you want a reliable daily trainer or a 10K PR!

Brooks challenge toolbag 1 review

modelo 66360520 Brooks Adrenaline Gts mulher stability shoe is what Brooks promised, and that’s exactly what the Bedlam 3 delivered. The DNA Amp cushioning is just right, and its responsiveness is excellent.

If you’re someone who’s looking for zapatillas de running Brooks neutro talla 47.5 or maybe even a 10K PR, this one to check out. At an MSRP of £160, it falls into the Brooks England Sacoches Scape Small 10-13L these days, but I think it’s worth it.

The Brooks challenge toolbag 1 is billed as their springiest shoe yet. Since I am a “show me, don’t tell me” kinda guy, I needed to see for myself. The proof’s in the pudding, right?

Stepping into the Brooks challenge toolbag 1, the shoe had a pretty rigid feel in the sole. I was sceptical, to say the least. Laced up and out the door is where the magic happened.

A weighted foot strike gave way to a more cushioned feel and the energy return of the promised spring in your step. It was a welcomed surprise, and my runs in the Brooks challenge toolbag 1 since have been nothing short of enjoyable. The DNA Amp sole of the Brooks challenge toolbag 1 definitely delivers.

The fit of the Brooks challenge toolbag 1 hits the nail on the head. The upper has a super soft and pliable weave. The fabric wraps the foot securely and comfortably. Meanwhile, the material has a nice airy feel to it, perfect for these hot summer days.

The ankle collar is wafer-thin and moulds to the ankle superbly. I like this snug sock-like feel, and personally, the excess padding that other brands fluff out the ankle collar with is unneeded in my humble opinion.

The toe box nails that sweet spot of just enough room to feel comfortable but not feeling sloppy and duckish. I’ve grown accustomed to roomy toe boxes in my jeu concours i run brooks gagnez un we dentrainement avec stephane brogniart, Brooks mens wide running shoes.

As mentioned, the promise of a springy step is totally delivered. The DNA Amp technology provides enough cushion to save your knees and ankles, while at the same time providing ample energy return for a quick foot turnover. I was a little put off by the 11.25 oz weight.

I guess I’ve been coddled into the luxury of an era of 7 to 9 oz running shoes. By any measure, these are not heavy shoes. The extra weight could likely reflect a higher quality of construction and material that will stand the test of time compared to the ultra-light shoe.

The sole of the shoe has a minimal tread. This seemed to suffice on the dry asphalt, cement and high school track surfaces that I tested this shoe on. The abiding weather as of late has not given me the chance to run on wet surfaces yet.

The GuideRails technology gives the Brooks challenge toolbag 1 a very stable ride with great lateral control. I tested these, in part, on a track and they cornered with secure control.

The sole surface area is nice and wide and provides a sure footing. The heel counter has a rigid plastic reinforcement that house the heel nicely.

The tongue and lace guides have some unique features that I like. The reinforcements for the laces are split, allowing for a supple anatomic fold on the top of the foot while running. The laces are flat, and consequently, the lace hole is too. It’s the little details that go a long way.

The staggered lace hole est creates varied points of lace tension and pull to create a more secure stronghold around your foot.

The tongue itself is unique. It starts about midway down the upper and is attached to the rest of the shoe with a small 1-inch wide swath of fabric. I was a little confused by this and wondered why they didn’t just go with a one-piece booty style upper?

Either way, the super-thin tongue doesn’t get in the way and is anchored in place by a long lace conduit that virtually eliminates tongue migration.
