Global presence: Brooks has its worldwide headquarters in Seattle, right along the Burke-Gilman running and biking trail next to Lake Union. It also has a flagship retail store called Brooks Trailhead. Additionally, their gear is used by runners in over 50 countries, with a second home in Amsterdam.
