Kicksology is your all-access pass into the fascinating, colorful
world of running shoes-and what makes up a perfect pair of kicks.
Sports journalist and veteran shoe tester Brian Metzler takes
runners and kicksologists deep inside the $10 billion dollar
running shoe industry with a behind-the-curtain look at what makes
iconic running shoe brands tick. Kicksology follows a shoe from
inspiration to store shelf to show how innovative ideas evolve into
industry-wide trends and fads. Metzler tours shoe labs where
scientists advance our understanding of shoes and running mechanics
as well as the domestic and overseas shoe factories where the
world's favorite kicks are assembled. A dedicated shoe nerd and
running junkie, Metzler shares his love of great shoes in this
fascinating look at the intersections of shoe culture and history,
science and storytelling, intel from the innovators with
on-the-ground insight from top runners. Kicksology is filled with
information as entertaining as it is surprising, tapping into the
passion runners have for their kicks and feeding their curiosity
about what makes a great shoe.
