Reviews
Kicksology is a fascinating read, giving us an insider's look at the running shoe business that Metzler has been involved with since college. It is that obsession with all things relating to shoes that gives Kicksology its breadth and depth and the reason it has been drawing national and international attention., In Kicksology , we too can run in Metzler's shoes and gain access to his hard-earned insights. The result is a fascinating journey., Praise for Brian Metzler and Kicksology "No one alive knows more than Brian Metzler about that great modern indulgence: the running shoe. Kicksology captures the science, the sagas, and the surprisingly tantalizing backstories surrounding a subject that's as personal and passionate to true believers as any religion. If you've ever laced rubber to your feet for a run, you'll be captivated by this delightfully probing book." --Christopher McDougall, author of Born to Run "If there's a such thing as a living encyclopedia of running shoes, it's Brian Metzler. Not only does he own more shoes than anyone I know, he knows more about them than anyone I know. His passion for running shoes, their history, evolution, and application is unmatched and speaks to my sole." --Mario Fraioli, The Morning Shakeout "It takes a true running shoe geek to write an informative and entertaining book about running shoes. That's who Brian Metzler is, and that's what he gives us with Kicksology . Like the proverbial kid in a candy store, Metzler samples each new shoe--minimalist, maximalist, zero-drop, VaporFly, and so on--with unabated enthusiasm. He also interviews the researchers and designers behind each shoe to provide crazy stories and new insights we haven't heard before." --Amby Burfoot, 1968 Boston Marathon winner, Runner's World editor at large " Kicksology is a great survey of the modern history of running shoes. A must-read for anyone in the sneaker game." --Matt Powell, sports industry analyst "In Kicksology , we too can run in Metzler's shoes and gain access to his hard-earned insights. The result is a fascinating journey." --Laura Clark, American Trail Running Association "No one has more knowledge and passion about running shoes and the industry than Brian Metzler.

If you've ever laced rubber to your feet for a run, you'll be captivated by this delightfully probing book.", Brian Metzler's knowledge of the running shoe industry is as broad as it is nuanced. Kicksology is a great broad-based dive into the industry's evolution since its inception without getting too strung up on detail and technical language. I found it very accessible, and I expect that a layperson with an interest in the shoe business will find it similarly easy to access., If there's a such thing as a living encyclopedia of running shoes, it's Brian Metzler. Not only does he own more shoes than anyone I know, he knows more about them than anyone I know.

He presents the untold stories of running shoes: where we are, how we got here, and what the future holds for your feet.
