The latest and greatest has arrived from Brooks this month in the form of the Adrenaline GTS 9 and the Glycerin 7.  The new models feature minor tweaks and updates in fit, while remaining fairly consistent with prior versions in terms of function.   One cool eco-friendly bonus feature is the introduction of “BioMogo” which is “the world’s first-ever biodegradable midsole for running shoes.”
