The Honda World Motocross team has been supplied with footwear for its athletes Evgeny Bobryshev and Max Nagl for training along with all members of the team for working in by running brand Brooks Italy.
The incredibly stylish shoes that are lightweight, robust and comfortable have been developed by the iconic Brooks brand, which was formed in 1914 in Philadelphia, USA.
Brooks is known as a leading running shoe manufacturer, supporting numerous world-class athletes, and can boast a number of patented technologies in their specialist shoes. Brooks’ range of footwear is available for men, ladies and children, as well as training clothing specifically designed for running. Brooks’ company strapline ‘the perfect ride for every stride’ is certainly a strong philosophy that will benefit the team’s athletes during their race preparation and training.
Brooks’ design teams work on each area of their specific shoes including their groundbreaking cushioning material that provides a customised ride for runners of all sizes and speed, along with a range of midsole technologies. The company’s attention to detail and belief in the quality of their products mean it’s an ideal partnership with the Honda World Motocross team.
“We’re really pleased to have started this new partnership with Brooks Italy, as Brooks is known as one of the leading running brands in the world, so it’s an ideal situation to be working with them for our athletes. The team’s new footwear looks great, and I am sure the riders will both enjoy the benefits of these specialist shoes when they are training across various terrains,” said Honda World Motocross Team Manager Lorenzo Resta.
Bobryshev and Nagl will benefit from a range of Brooks’ products for their extensive training schedule off the bike, and the team has received some great red and black shoes for working in for the remainder of the World MX1 Championship season.
“It’s great we’ve been provided with the Brooks footwear for training, travelling and at the races. It is a quality brand that’s well recognised by athletes worldwide, so it is great to know we are using the very best products. From my point of view using footwear that is right for the job is important in training, because it reduces the chance of injury and makes the training much more efficient in the right places,” said Evgeny Bobryshev, Honda World Motocross racer.
“We believe that the physical preparation and specifically the running is the key to success for most sports and especially for those of endurance,” said Marco Rocca, sales & marketing manager at Brooks Italy.
“For this reason and to increase the visibility of our brand, a true leader in the running industry, but with great growth potential in the general sports market, the patnership with Honda is strategically important, and as motocross fans, this truly excites us a maximum!”
