Brooks Touts Growth in Q3 as Demand for Its Performance Shoes, Apparel ‘Remains Strong’

The company said it has achieved its 13th consecutive quarter of revenue growth.

The Seattle-based athletic brand said Thursday that its continued momentum across international markets, product categories and the growing global running community led to the milestone.

Brooks noted that it delivered 12 percent revenue growth through the first three quarters of 2026 as demand for its performance footwear and apparel remained strong worldwide. (The private brand, a division of Berkshire Hathaway, does not disclose dollar amounts.)

Year-to-date through September, Brooks grew in all regions, increasing 9 percent each in the Americas and Asia-Pacific (APAC) and 24 percent in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA). Growth spanned Brooks’ portfolio, with footwear revenue up 11 percent and apparel increasing 18 percent year-to-date.

As for what shoe styles are winning, Brooks noted Hyperion Elite franchise grew 68 percent year-over-year in the third quarter of 2026, reflecting growing demand for its performance racing range.

Trail also remained a standout category for Brooks, growing 44 percent in Q3, driven by Ghost Trail and the 20th anniversary of the Cascadia franchise. Brooks also introduced Ghost Amp in Q3, an all-new offering featuring SpringRamp technology combined with DNA Hype Peba-blend cushioning that reimagines energy-return in the forefoot.

Led by the Adrenaline GTS 10 and the reintroduction of the Brooks Vanguard, the brand’s lifestyle category continued to gain traction, delivering triple-digit growth in Q3.

Collaborations with AFEW and Alex Zono reimagined signature Brooks styles across heritage and performance silhouettes and drew strong consumer demand, with the Alex Zono collection selling out within six hours in Korea.
