Sasquatch Collection by Louie Gong (Nooksack)

Run with nature.
One with nature.


Tread mindfully and in step with nature in the limited-edition Sasquatch Collection by Louie Gong (Nooksack). In Louie’s interpretation, Sasquatch serves as a reminder that when we run with respect for nature, it will reveal itself to us.

Tread mindfully

Brooks believes in the importance of taking the time to appreciate the natural environment that surrounds us and acknowledging that we run on Indigenous land.

When we no longer look at the land as something to conquer, but instead as something to respect, protect, and learn from, we show respect to Indigenous people and help protect the land for generations to come.

Don’t conquer. Connect.

This video was filmed on Snoqualmie Land with permission and in collaboration with the Snoqualmie Tribe Ancestral Lands Movement. Listen to three different runners reflect on their learnings from the Movement and how they are connecting with the land they run on.

Run responsibly with Brooks
