The 2026 runDisney Springtime Surprise Brooks Shoe Collection

Glycerin 23 Genie — $185

This is the premium pick of the bunch. The Glycerin 23 takes inspiration from the magic lamp, with metallic finishes on the outsole and starry graphics running along the midsole path. Genie himself is featured on the heel.

Available in men’s sizes 7–15 and women’s sizes 5–12. Wide widths available for both (subject to availability).

Ghost 17 Winnie the Pooh — $170

One of the two new duo-inspired designs for this event. Tigger is featured on the left shoe, Pooh on the right. Honeycomb path detailing and honey pot accents run throughout. Based on the “Winnie the Pooh” works by A.A. Milne and E.H. Shepard.

Available in men’s sizes 7–15 and women’s sizes 5–12. Wide widths available for both (subject to availability).

Ghost 17 Chip ‘n’ Dale — $170

The second new duo design. Black stitching on the left shoe represents Chip, red stitching on the right represents Dale. A fuzzy tongue and fur-textured Brooks path add character detail throughout. It’s subtle but clever.

Available in men’s sizes 7–15 and women’s sizes 5–12. Wide widths available for both (subject to availability).

Ghost 17 Mickey Mouse — $170

A returning style from the core runDisney lineup. This one features a contrasting color palette with 3D details, including a tufted Mickey Mouse silhouette on the heel and a raised knit Brooks path on the side. Finished with Mickey’s signature.

Available in men’s sizes 7–15 and women’s sizes 5–12. Wide widths available for both (subject to availability).

Adrenaline GTS 25 runDisney — $165

The most affordable option in the collection. A gradient blue-to-white colorway with subtle Mickey Mouse and runDisney details throughout. One important heads-up: this style will NOT be available for onsite pickup. Orders placed at the Expo will ship to your home address.

Available in men’s sizes only: 10–15 (subject to availability).

Lace Badges — $20

A fun add-on — a 4-pack of shoe badges with charms for each race distance at the 2026 Springtime Surprise Weekend. They tie right into your shoelaces.

When and How to Buy the 2026 runDisney Brooks Shoes

Shoes go on sale Thursday, April 16 — the first day of the runDisney Health & Fitness Expo. A virtual queue is in place for that opening day, so you’ll need to join it to get access. Make sure you know how to enter the queue before you arrive.

The purchase limit on Day 1 is 2 pairs per design per adult purchaser — that’s a maximum of 10 pairs total. All styles will be on display throughout the Expo before they go on sale.

The Expo runs April 16–18 at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World.

Which Shoe Is Worth It?

If you’re running Springtime Surprise Weekend, these limited-edition shoes are a great way to commemorate the race. The Chip ‘n’ Dale and Winnie the Pooh designs are genuinely creative new releases — not just recolors of old styles. The Genie Glycerin at $185 is the splurge pick, but it’s a striking shoe with real design detail.

Just have a plan for the virtual queue on April 16 if you want the best shot at your size.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had.  Will most definitely be using him again.   He took care of everything and kept me on track.  Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything.   Can't thank him enough.   He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
