Brooks Running has reported a 14 per cent increase in revenue during the first half of 2026 as strong international demand and rising sales across key product categories lifted the performance running brand.
The revenue in the Americas rose 9 per cent year over year, while sales in Europe, the Middle East and Africa surged 39 per cent. Revenue in Asia-Pacific increased 10 per cent. Brooks also posted a record second quarter, extending its momentum as the global running market continues to expand.
Product performance was a major contributor. Sales of the Adrenaline GTS, one of Brooks’ flagship franchises, climbed 19 per cent in the second quarter. Trail running was even stronger, with trail footwear revenue jumping 71 per cent, while sales of the Cascadia franchise rose 58 per cent. Accessories increased by 29 per cent.
“Around the globe, running continues to play an increasingly important role for people prioritizing health and wellness in their lives,” said Dan Sheridan, CEO of Brooks Running.
“At Brooks, we aim to give runners the very best product and experiences to pursue that. Our first-half results reflect that focus and the incredible work of our teams globally.”
Brooks is also pushing further into lifestyle footwear. The emerging category delivered near-triple-digit growth in the quarter, following the company’s showcase of new products at Paris Fashion Week.
The brand maintained its top position in US specialty running footwear for a sixth consecutive month and remained the leading brand in Germany for adult performance running footwear priced at €90 and above.
In May, the Seattle-based sportswear company also recorded its best fiscal quarter yet, following a “record-breaking” 2025.
