Running shoe built for the neutral to under-pronator who requires an enhanced cushioning.
Rebellious run shoe that delivers the brand's celebrated fit, feel and ride that's ideally suited for the biomechanically efficient runner.
Moisture-Managing upper and linings are constructed with Element™ technology which protects you from weather conditions via its superior microfiber construction while offering a lightweight and breathable feel that is both comfortable and durable.
Upper is enhanced with synthetic overlay materials and an internal support saddle.
HydroFlow® technology enhances midsole cushioning and shock absorption with the added placement of dynamic gooey fluid units in the heel and forefoot.
Chemically engineered to biodegrade without the use of oxygen (landfill conditions), full-length innovative BioMoGo is not only an eco-friendly midsole compound, but it continues to provide a soft yet stable cushy feel that offers increased cushioning and energy return.
DRB® Accel is a shank-like thermoplastic device that enhances tunable torsion of the midfoot while providing added support. This dual density version tunes the medial area more stiff for support and the lateral side less stiff for a smoother ride.
Full-length, durable S-257™ Cushsole offers a flexible and cushioned ride while saving you energy.
Engineered Stable Pod Configuration enables the midsole and outsole components to set the foot up in an efficient and balanced position for maximum stability and responsiveness from heel strike through toe-off.
Blown rubber forefoot maximizes durability.
Longer-lasting HPR Plus™ outsole that features a highly durable and abrasion-resistant rubber.
10.00 oz.

These shoes are very comfortable. The Zappos return policy and services are great. I highly recommend people, especially who have trouble finding shoes of odd sizes/widths, to try zappos.com web site. They will become a happy customer like me.

Great shoe! I have trouble finding narrow running shoes, I have tried NB, not for my feet. Asics, much better in the heel, but a little big in the shoe box. Now I have found the perfect shoe for my narrow feet. Brooks Defyance 2 has both the narrow heel and narrow toe box. Perfect fit!! I will definitely buy more!

Reviewer: Anonymous from NYC

Please ignore my star ratings since I was unable to get the right fit with these shoes. I was substituting my great Brooks Radius 7, and Brooks suggested considering this shoe (since the Radius have been discontinued). However, the regular width D was too tight (compared to the Radius), and the wide version EE was too wide. A good fit is critical for running, so unfortunately I was unable to replace my Brooks Radius 7 with these.

I am an overweight neutral runner--high arch. The Brooks Defyance are well-made shoes with great support. I have run in them several times with comfort. I did a 5K last weekend in them with no problems. I recommend them to others.

Reviewer: Chad C from Glendale, Arizona
Overall:3 stars   Comfort:3 stars   Look:5 stars

I bought these because I can’t find the old Defyance model. The Defyance 2 are just a bit less wide in the toe box and I ended up with bad blisters on my pinky toes. I had to stop running in them. They are much better looking than the old Defyance, but just the wrong fit now.

Shoe Size: Felt true to size
Shoe Width: Felt true to width
Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support

Solid neutral shoe - I found that I have a neutral foot that doesn't require substantial arch support. For such feet, this is a good choice. I use it for routine casual walking (and the Defyance, very similar) for fast treadmill walking. Be sure to use the back lace holes to prevent rubbing at the heel.

Defyance Rocks - Great shoe, relatively lightweight, good support while running; Zappos is the best for customer service and ease of doing business.

I just had to write and say, wow! I am so impressed with you, Zappos! I was so delighted when the shoes that I ordered less than 24 hours ago showed up today on my doorstep, even though I had chosen the standard free shipping. I wasn't expecting to see these shoes until next week sometime. You guys rock! I'm so excited to wear my new shoes to work tomorrow! Thanks for making my day!
