With over 75,000 miles recorded in my logbook since 1980, No shoe matches the Brooks Beast. It is simply the best. If I thought the Beast would be discontinued, I would buy 50 of them. Enough said.

I have tried wearing these and the bottom of my feet are getting calloused. Also, my feet get very tired if I wear them too long. I tried them for about five days.

My husband loves these shoes - especially after his total hip replacement. However, finding a size 11, 4E width in area stores proved an exercise in futility. On Zappos.com, I discovered them in the right size, ordered them, and had them by the next day - which was a big rescue since that day was the day before Christmas Eve! He loves the brand so much, he has these Beasts in both blue and black now. He's a big-boned/well-muscled Viking kind of guy who is tough on clothes and shoes. Used to be he'd buy heavy clunkers of athletic shoes just to have something he could wear for over a month without them disintegrating. The Brooks Beast apparently can handle any beast on a long term basis, and they look sleek and sexy even in such a large size! They are incredibly lightweight. Perfect for any Sasquach to flit through the underbrush and elude the press. My husband now goes to the gym regularly to try to rehab that hip, and I believe these shoes contribute to his enjoyment now of what was a former dread.

Great for the 'larger' runner. I am 6'5", 220 pounds and these are the only running shoes I will use. They have enough cushion and stability to keep my knees from hurting (due to overpronation). I cannot recommend these shoes enough!

The Brooks Beast is great for people with wide feet or with problem feet due to diabetes 2, etc. I had never seen the shoe with black accent, and think this color is very cool. Most importantly the Beast, for me, is like walking on pillows. Real comfortable.

I'm a bigger guy who runs about 5 miles/day. By big I mean 200 lbs and I'm 6 ft tall. I run in Beast and GTS shoes. These are certainly noticeably thicker in the sole than GTS. They provide quite a healthy cushion. The only downside is they are heavier than the GTS, but I am sacrificing weight for my knees. Finally, these shoes have a more durable sole than the GTS for some reason. It takes me much longer to wear these out. Overall, these are expensive, but well made shoes. I'm on my 2nd pair now. Personally, I don't care for the styling at all, but that's not the point of these shoes.
