The Brooks Women's Ravenna 2 Running Shoes is perfectly tuned to your needs, with just enough support and new Anatomical Brooks DNA to adapt to each step you take, for customized cushioning and energy return. The 3D adjustable arch saddle conforms to your foot for an ideal instep wrap and a caterpillar crash pad smooth’s out the landing zone, moving your foot efficiently through heel strike. Lace up and optimize your every stride.
The midsole features Anatomical Brooks DNA, full length BioMoGo, Diagonal rollbar (DRB®), DRB® Accel, full length S-257 Cushsole, and a universal contoured platform.
The outsole features HPR Plus, forefoot stable pod construction, and blown rubber forefoot.
The upper features Profile Sockliner, Air Mesh, synthetic overlay materials, and moisture-managing Element linings.
BiMoGo midsoles debuted in the spring of 2009 and set the bar for green innovation in the footwear industry. Here’s a quick refresher course on the award-winning technology:
BioMoGo is a non-toxic, natural additive that encourages anaerobic microbes to break down the midsole into reusable byproducts once it his an active, enclosed landfill.
Traditional EVA midsoles can last up to 1,000 years in a landfill. BioMoGo breaks down 50 times faster.
BioMoGo midsoles will save 29.9 million pounds of landfill waste in roughly 20-25 years.
The Brooks DNA technology pioneered a whole new performance paradigm, by defying the laws of physics. Brooks DNA provides custom cushioning to each and every runner by instantly reacting to each step, delivering just the right amount of resiliency for your size and speed. When there is low impact the polymer chain interactions are loose and flexible. When there is medium impact the polymer chain interactions start to strengthen. And, when there is high impact the polymer chain interactions are strong and tight.
The Diagonal Rollbar (DBR®) is a high-density post at the medial arch that is engineered for pronation control and creates a smoother transition from the midstance phase into the propulsion phase.
The DRB® Accel is a shank-like thermoplastic device that provides torsional rigidity to midfoot, enhancing support while allowing the heel and forefoot to act independently.
The S-257 Cushole is a durable, energy-efficient midsole compound utilized as an insole board for even more cushioning and flexibility.
