Brooks has partnered with renowned fine artist and illustrator, Lisa Congdon to design this Spring’s Run Proud Collection.
The 2022 Run Proud Collection currently has a few items in it already and the fall expects more options.

“I wanted my designs to bring forward the idea of being yourself. I drew the illustrations by hand to create a composition that mimics the rhythmic elements of a dynamic landscape. And the colors from the progress flag gave me the perfect palette to bring energy to the designs. It really was an honor to create a design that speaks to queer joy.”
Personal note – the Levitate Stealthfit 5 is a great shoe (Run Oregon review), and the Run Proud Collection version has me obsessed. Want.
Beyond the gear, Brooks and Lisa sponsored a field day last summer for Camp Brave Trails (CBT) – a organization and youth camp dedicated to building up the next generation of LGBTQ+ leaders. Campers partook in actives ranging from designing cabin flags to leadership workshops for campers/staff. In addition, Brooks presented a monetary donation to CBT’s Capital Campaign, a campaign to support a new campsite for youth. Checkout photos of last summer’s festivities.
The Run Proud Collection is one that is great and worthwhile for a lot of reasons. We recommend checking it out!
