Wow. Who knew my feet and knees did not have to hurt at work? - I use motion control running shoes but never thought about walking shoes at work where I walk A LOT on concrete and my knees tend to hurt due to bad over pronation and flat feet. I stumbled across this shoe, read the reviews and gave it a shot. All I can say is WOW. My knees do not hurt and I have more energy at work now. Just a great shoe for the over pronator.

Brooks addiction walker shoes - We were very satisfied with the shoes; they were very comfortable with good support. The only complaint I might have, is that they were a little heavy. Was very happy with the very fast and free shipping. I do not usually buy shoes this way; will not hesitate to do it again.

Best fit for my odd foot - My wide foot with narrow heel is hard to fit. Most shoes will have your heel flopping in the back, or a smaller size will still rub in back but squash the ball. This shoe is great. I had a professionally fitted shoe, and then ordered the next pair from Zappos. It was a perfect fit.

Wonderful at work - I work 12 hour shifts, mostly standing and walking, and I bought this shoe hoping it would help with foot pain and fatigue. It has performed wonderfully. After wearing these shoes all day my feet are only slightly tired and have NO pain.

Happy Feet - Absolutely the most comfortable shoe ever for me right out of the box. Maybe partly 'cause I could get the wide width with Zappos. Use them for long walks...only had them for a couple weeks but, so far, can't say enough good about them. Ended up buying a second pair.

Better than New Balance - I have been a New Balance lover for years. All of my previous walking shoes have been NB. However I needed something sturdier for my flat feet and that held my orthotics... These are sturdy shoes and felt heavy when I first put them on but once I got used to them they were great. They run SMALL so I had to get the men’s shoe and go a size and half larger for them to feel comfortable. If you don’t wear orthotics maybe you can go one size up. It’s a good sturdy shoe and they don’t cost as much as NBs either

I am addicted to Brooks!! These are great shoes for walking on the concrete sidewalks of NYC. They certainly cushion my feet from the stress of the power walk from the office to the train. I had no reservations about ordering a second pair when finally needed to replace them.

Brooks Addiction #153 - Fine looking and fine fitting shoe. A little costly, but I guess price has to be raise to cover free shipping to and from. Nothing is free in this World.

Great shoe - I have had this shoe before as it was recommended to me by physical therapy personnel as I was recovering from a badly injured foot and ankle. Outstanding support (I have flat feet) and comfortable. VERY true to size. That's why I bought another pair.

Other brands recommended by reviewer: Anything from the same company.

Like so much bought another - My son had these for 9th grade and loved them (he has to have plain black shoes for high school). They are comfortable, and flexible, and apparently cool enough that he wanted another pair this year, because unfortunately, his feet are still growing. He is a size 12, his foot is average width. These are comfortable for 12 hour days, no problems at all.

Brooks Walking shoes - solid, light, and comfortable - I have plantar fasciitis and a heel spur; Brooks shoes have been the best for me. This shoe, in particular, accepts orthotic inserts well and provides a solid, flat, stable foundation. Nice enough to wear with a nice pair of Dockers, too. The people at Zappos are just fantastic...best customer service anywhere, Johnny on the Spot when you've got a problem, too!

Brooks addiction walker - Having worn the Beast and Synergy versions for about six years I needed a new walker. The Addiction is a solid, all-black, comfortable shoe for all day on concrete. I tried the NB mw845 and the Addiction worked better with my orthotics. Do all shoe for shorts and casual dress.

Excellent! It’s rare for me to find the right shoes because of my bad feet. This Brooks style fits perfect. Almost feels like I'm walking on air. Zappos you are one of the best companies I've ever dealt with. Excellent products fast service thank you! I'll be coming back for sure!

Supreme Comfort For Walking - Between the motion control and cushioning provided, the Addiction Walker is a comfort indeed. I take a 2 mile walk on concrete sidewalks every day and these shoes make it possible. I'm on my third pair and plan to replace them every 6 months for as long as I'm able to keep up my present pace.

The best flat ever!!! I have worn and loved flats for years and was excited to see this one. I now have 4 pair! I bought 2 pair in my usual size (8) and they are tight, but with a little more wear (I have not worn them much) I expect them to stretch to be quite comfortable. I also purchased 2 pair in 1/2 size larger (8.5) and they were comfortable on day one and soon stretched to feel like slippers. I wear my black 8.5 pair every day and love, love, love them. I would like to order several more pairs in the larger size just for back ups and the future, but Zappos seems to be out of stock in that size.

The perfect walking shoe! I'm a large frame heavy build man and this is the only walking shoe that does not hurt my feet. Believe me I've tried them all and always suffered from heel, knee or hip pain. I also wear these shoes at work and they are great because I also have flat feet. This will always be the shoe for me. I highly recommend them.

Good Work Shoes - I stand for my entire shift at work. I need a comfortable and supportive shoe. My feet were very sore from the shoes I had been wearing. These shoes have proven to be very good in providing sufficient support. My feet are no longer sore at the end of my shift. (I installed additional gel supports, but I always do that with my shoes). I did have to exchange them for a 1/2 size larger, and one width wider than I usually wear.

Dear Zappos, I just wanted to send a quick note to tell you that I will be a loyal customer for as long as you exist! I have never once had a bad experience with Zappos.com and have found even returning a product is pain-free. Many people find buying shoes online to be a process that is a hassle based on shipping costs and not getting a chance to see the shoe actually on their foot, but you have done a tremendous job not only making shipping easy, and FREE, but also providing a number of angles for a shoe online so it can best be represented without physically holding it. I have purchased numerous shoes, sandals and boots from Zappos over the years and have never once been disappointed. Most recently, I was upgraded to expedited shipping for free on my most recent purchase, which again pointed out why I love Zappos so much! My educational background is a degree in marketing as well as an MBA focused in strategic management, which makes me extra critical of things like customer service as well as other business functions. Zappos always comes up as my example of companies who are doing things right and charting their own path to success. I recommend your site to people all the time and hopefully they will experience the delight I have come to know as 'the norm' when dealing with Zappos. Thank you to everybody there for their hard work, dedication and emphasis on the customer. It is not going unrecognized and you have me hooked for life! Well done and I look forward to many future purchases! Most Sincerely, Ryan S.
