Jennifer Garner Packed Brooks Sneakers During a Trip to San Francisco

Jennifer Garner clearly knows how to take cardio to the next level.

While visiting San Francisco for her business, Once Upon a Farm, the actress and entrepreneur found time for a workout on a downtown rooftop. A recent Instagram post showed her doing plyometrics with the iconic spire of the Ferry Building just a few feet away. It’s the kind of shot we might expect of Sydney Bristow getting ready for a mission in Alias.

Garner was wearing navy blue leggings, a loose gray tee, and her trusty Brooks sneakers. The 52-year-old is a known fan of the running shoe brand — we’ve clocked her wearing its footwear before in several colors, including lilac and pink tones.

The ones Garner had on for her rooftop workout were the Brooks Glycerin 21 sneakers. You can get them for $160, but we found even better prices on similar Brooks sneakers on sale right now.

Brooks Sneakers Inspired by Jennifer Garner

Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22 Running Shoes

If you’re looking for a more affordable option, the Adrenaline GTS 22s have more than 17,000 five-star ratings at Amazon and are currently $85. These running shoes cut a slim profile and Brooks recommends ordering a half-size up from your dress shoe size. 

Buyers rave about the support they offer. “They look great and feel great after being on my feet all day,” wrote one reviewer, who said they wear them during nursing shifts. “They have the perfect amount of cushion… and [are] a great value as they do not break down quickly over time.”

Brooks Glycerin 20 Running Shoes

These Brooks Glycerin 20s have the same amount of cushioning as Garner’s shoes, and they’re designed for lasting comfort during long-distance runs and workouts. One shopper who wore them on a trip to Europe where they walked roughly 250 miles said they had no blisters. “I navigated all sorts of terrain and looked good doing it,” they added. “I cannot believe the quality for the price.”

Brooks Ghost Max Running Shoes

Another popular style, the Brooks Ghost Max running shoes are also on sale in multiple bright hues that remind us of Garner’s Glycerin 21 sneakers. These have the maximum cushioning level that the brand offers, but are neutral in terms of support, making them suitable for most wearers. 

A look through the customer reviews will show a lot of people calling the sneakers the most comfortable shoes they’ve ever worn. “I am a 64-year-old female that walks 3-5 miles daily,” wrote one. “These shoes feel like I am walking on a cloud.”
