Summer is when memories are made, but school is where the real work gets done for our future. Brooks Running's latest collection celebrates all of the teachers and coaches ahead of the upcoming school year.

Earlier this week, Academy Sports + Outdoors, one of the leading sporting-goods brands in the industry, has announced its latest collaboration with Brooks Running on the latest installment of their Brooks Hero collection. The collaboration with Academy follows the Brooks spring-inspired collection that was released in March.

Designed to recognize the heroic spirit of teachers and coaches, and the positive impact running can have on mental health and wellness, the new Brooks Hero collection features a shoe just for women, the “Ghost 16.”
