Research & Innovation
From our lab
Since 1914, we’ve been driven by our relentless curiosity about how humans move. Our engineers study the motion path from foot to knee to hip, for in-depth understanding of body mechanics. We use everything we learn in our research to help keep you moving faster, longer, and healthier.
To what moves you
For us, movement is the key to feeling more alive. So, whether you’re heading to a finish line, a fresh perspective, or a feeling — let's run there. Here’s how we put our philosophy in motion.

Our scientists partner with researchers around the world to study how the body moves when you run, from upper body rotation down to ankle movement. Then we take that hard-won knowledge and put it at the center of our gear design.

Wear testing
We interview thousands of runners to find out what they want and need. Other runners push our gear to the limit over hundreds of miles, offering crucial insights along the way. Because after all, the final test is whether it makes you happy.
