I will NEVER buy another pair of Brooks shoes or apparel EVER AGAIN

Because I'm employed by Brooks.

Now tell me why the OP can't say his name? Because he is not being truthful about this thread.

I noticed they have a LOT of brand ambassadors on social media. Are you one? It came across a little corny.

I haven't bought their product in years. Used to, but their products don't fit my needs.

I have no connection to the posters above, but why is someone fired up OP is suggesting his own personal boycott? Acting like he insulted the Queen or something. The guy has a right to not buy a product if he doesn't want, without getting flamed.

Then don't buy the product, why are you posting about it....who cares?

Employed by Brooks? No conflict of interest there (wink, winK, wiNK, wINK, WINK!!!!)

What aspect is OP not being truthful about? People are saying the exact same thing on twitter. AFAIK, you can't sue someone for saying they won't buy a product ever again.

YOU ARE A LIAR. You haven't bought uniforms from Brooks in at least 4 years. They got out of the team business in 2013.

You are either

1. A disgruntled employee

2. A competitor

3. Nick Symmonds

Not a liar, here's my supplier:

and you posted that because why? you're insecure and looking for a response of approval or you are another shill for the site?

Is it not ok to just state an opinion and/or personal thought? And you felt the need to look for a reason behind it because why?

But ASICS is for hobby joggers and chicks who want people to believe that they can run.

Exactly. I'm pretty sure this thread is bombarded with petty little social media ambassadors protecting their company, so they can continue to get their 2 pairs of free annual shoes for their 400 hours of work. Lmao.

Yeah, like ONE person not buying from Brooks is going to affect them in the long run.

Come on now, LoneStarXC! It's the butterfly effect in action!

I'm pretty sure you mean the domino effect. Unless Ashton Kutcher is going back in time and changing who the CEO of Brooks is.

Fake news. I’ll be running d1 next year.

One of the more annoying things on letsrun are these types of exchanges

Person one: i hate brooks, will never buy them again

Person two: ok you must work for Nike

Person three: says the brooks employee

Person four: wow a lot of Nike shills up here

Can’t someone have an opinion, however lame it might be, without being intimately involved?

Now that's a movie I would go see ??

Person 1: Tom Brady Sucks

Person 2: okay Rex Ryan

I feel the same as op, but then I haven't bought brooks anything in years. What was the last shoe that brooks made which was actually good? The t racers were good up through t6, but after that everything has been gimicy or super cushiony.
