Brooks Heel Drop Chart [2023 Updated]
Hey there runners and fitness enthusiasts!
Imagine this; you’re all ready to hit the road, with your sneakers on and a sense of excitement in the air.
But wait a second—have you ever wondered about that detail in your shoes that can have an impact on your running experience?
That’s where the concept of “Heel Drop” comes into play and we’re going to delve into it in this blog post dedicated to Brooks running shoes.
Alright lets break it down. Brooks isn’t any brand when it comes to running shoes. They are like the experts in creating footwear that provides comfort, style and helps you run like a champion.
However there’s an element that we’ll discuss today; the Heel Drop. It’s essentially a measurement that has the potential to completely alter how you run how comfortable you feel while running and even your overall performance.
Here’s what we’re going to do; we’ll take an in depth look, at all those Brooks shoes that you adore.
We’re here to give you the lowdown, on the types of running shoes from the options like the Revel to the more robust and durable Adrenaline GTS. We’ll share information on the heel drop (how raised the back of each shoe is) their weight and when they perform best.
Whether you’re training for a marathon enjoying a run, in nature or simply looking for a jog we’ve got you covered.
What is Heel Drop?
Heel drop, also known as Heel-To-Toe (HTT) drop, midsole drop, or offset, is the difference in height between the back and front of a shoe. This difference is measured in millimeters and can be anywhere from 0mm (completely flat) to 12mm or more.
The heel-to-toe drop of a running shoe affects how you run and how your foot hits the ground.
Running shoes with a high heel-to-toe drop (8-12mm) encourage your heel to hit the ground first when you run. This gives more padding and support to runners who naturally land on their heels.
On the other hand, running shoes with a low heel-to-toe drop (0-4mm) encourage the middle or front of your foot to hit the ground first. This can help you run better and lower the chance of getting hurt.
It’s important to know that there’s no “right” heel drop for everyone. The best heel-to-toe drop for you depends on how you run, what kind of feet you have, and what you like.
In the next part, we’ll show you a Brooks Heel Drop Chart to help you pick the right pair of Brooks running shoes for you!
