Retro Ad – December 1985 – Brooks Chariot

“Can 2,000,000 feet be wrong?”

The Brooks Chariot was an extremely popular running shoe in the 80’s and is survived by the Brooks Addiction, which is still going strong today.

At the time that this ad was published, Brooks had sold over a million pairs of the Chariot, and a Runner’s World survey showed that more people ran in the Chariot than any other shoe! I know there must be some of you out there that have worn these, let us hear your story.

  1. July 10,2012, I am proud to say I still have a pair of Brooks Chariots. I bought 10+ pairs from the running store on-line many years ago. I am sorry to say ,this is my very last pair. I am 61 and I have a lot of fond memories over the years with these shoes. I am loyal Brooks customer but I am sad to say that this shoe is no loger made by Brooks.
