US’ Brooks Running powers ahead with 17% Q3 surge
The company accelerated global expansion efforts, growing year-to-date (YTD) revenue by 23 per cent in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) and 82 per cent in Asia Pacific and Latin America (APLA) over the same horizon last year. Brooks’ unwavering focus on runners continues to strengthen its position on the global stage as the running category expands worldwide.
Brooks Running has posted its ninth straight quarter of YoY growth, with Q3 FY25 revenue up 17 per cent, fuelled by double-digit gains across all regions and channels.
EMEA revenue rose 23 per cent and APLA 82 per cent year-to-date.
Strong footwear demand, immersive brand activations, and product launches such as Cascadia Elite boosted performance and market share globally.
The global running market continued to grow in Q3, driven by strong demand for performance running footwear. In the US, where adult performance running footwear increased 13 per cent in Q3, the company achieved highest market share at national retail, Brooks Running said in a press release.
YTD through Q3, Brooks held three of the top six adult performance footwear styles sold at US national retail. In France and Germany, where in Q3 performance running footwear grew 9 per cent and 23 per cent, respectively, Brooks outpaced both markets with 15 per cent growth in France and 29 per cent growth in Germany.
“Our entire global team wakes up every day thinking about the runner—how they move, what they feel, the experience they desire and expect from their Brooks gear,” said Dan Sheridan, CEO of Brooks Running. “I am super proud of the way Brooks is executing, even against a backdrop of continued economic impacts and uncertainty. More people around the world are running and choosing an active lifestyle and Brooks is central to their health and wellness goals.”
In Q3, Brooks launched five footwear styles in three core performance categories—cushion, trail, and speed—fuelling a 17 per cent growth in YoY footwear revenue. The brand also previewed the all-new Cascadia Elite, a shoe that’s helped propel Brooks’ elite trail athletes to 12 first place finishes and 30 podiums this season. Core franchises continued to post gains with Adrenaline GTS up 20 per cent and Glycerin up 29 per cent while full-price products grew 21 per cent.
Through its ongoing relationship with runDisney, Brooks launched limited-edition product at the Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend in September.
From the Brooks House of Mountains at Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) in Chamonix to the Brooks Hyperion Houseboat at the TCS Sydney Marathon, Brooks brought its unique energy to the global running community in Q3 through a series of immersive brand experiences at iconic running events.
In Tokyo and Berlin, Brooks opened its signature Hyperion Houses where runners could try on new products and experience the brand in real life, added the release.

Italy’s Moncler Group’s 9M 2025 revenues hold steady at $2.13 bn
Moncler brand revenues were €1.55 billion (~$1.8 billion), stable at constant exchange rates compared with 2024. In Q3 2025, revenues reached €514.2 million (–1 per cent cFX YoY), supported by sequential gains in both DTC and wholesale channels, Moncler Group said in a press release.
Italian Moncler Group has reported revenues of €1.84 billion (~$2.13 billion) in the 9M 2025, flat at constant exchange rates.
Moncler brand sales totalled €1.55 billion (~$1.8 billion) and Stone Island €288 million (~$334.1 million), with both showing sequential improvement in DTC performance.
The Americas and China outperformed, offsetting softer EMEA and Japan results.
Asia’s revenues increased 3 per cent cFX to €752.6 million, driven by continued strength in China, partially offset by softness in Japan and Korea. Revenues in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) declined 4 per cent cFX to €581 million, affected by subdued tourism flows despite a slight sequential improvement. Americas’ revenues rose 2 per cent cFX to €219.6 million, with Q3 growth of 5 per cent cFX driven by double-digit DTC sales.
Moncler brand’s direct-to-consumer (DTC) channel grew 1 per cent cFX to €1,255.4 million, maintaining stable performance through Q3 despite macroeconomic headwinds. Wholesale revenues fell 5 per cent cFX to €297.8 million, reflecting Moncler’s continued focus on distribution quality and network optimisation.
As of September 30, 2025, Moncler operated 294 directly operated stores (DOS), a net increase of seven since June 2025, including a new boutique in Austin and an expanded SKP location in Beijing. The brand also managed 49 wholesale shop-in-shops, five fewer than the previous quarter.
Stone Island recorded revenues of €288.1 million (~$334.1 million) in 9M 2025 (–1 per cent cFX), with Q3 revenues flat year-on-year. Performance was shaped by a robust DTC segment and a wholesale decline due to shipment timing differences between quarters.
Revenues in Asia rose 13 per cent cFX to €74.2 million, driven by strong momentum in China and Japan. EMEA declined 4 per cent cFX to €196.2 million, as robust DTC growth was offset by weaker wholesale sales. The Americas fell 11 per cent cFX to €17.7 million, though both channels improved sequentially in Q3. The DTC channel advanced 9 per cent cFX to €145.1 million, accounting for over half of total sales, while wholesale revenues dropped 9 per cent cFX to €143.0 million due to shipment timing differences but showed sequential improvement during the quarter.
Stone Island operated 92 directly operated stores and 11 wholesale mono-brand stores as of September 30, 2025. Notably, the brand relocated its flagship store in New York City during the quarter.
Meanwhile, in the third quarter (Q3), group revenues totalled €615.6 million (–1 per cent cFX YoY), with Moncler and Stone Island contributing €514.2 million and €101.4 million respectively. Both brands demonstrated sequential improvement in their direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels, reflecting effective execution amid subdued market demand.
“As we close the first nine months of the year, we remain focused on executing our strategy with discipline, agility, and a strong sense of direction – aware of the challenges around us, but even more committed to the opportunities ahead,” said Remo Ruffini, chairman and CEO of Moncler Group.
“Our recently-launched communication campaign Warmer Together celebrates the values that have defined Moncler for over 70 years—love, connection, and a shared sense of warmth—brought to life through the friendship of two legendary Hollywood icons,” added Ruffini. “These same values come to life in Casa Moncler, our new headquarters and a key milestone in our journey. More than just a space, it is a powerful expression of our culture—where creativity meets innovation, and where our people come together with strong energy and a deep sense of belonging to shape the future of our brand.”
Moncler continues to prioritise organic growth, direct engagement through its retail network, and the elevation of its wholesale distribution. The company also published its 2026 Corporate Events Calendar, available on its website under the Investors section, added the release.
“As we close the first nine months of the year, we remain focused on executing our strategy with discipline, agility, and a strong sense of direction—aware of the challenges around us, but even more committed to the opportunities ahead,” said Ruffini.
