Brooks Shoes -
I have very flat feet. These shoes are very comfortable and I no longer have to use the inserts provided by the podiatrist.

A good shoe -
I work as a paramedic for an ambulance service. So I do a lot of walking on concrete floors and also in varying terrain. Add to that the facts that I'm a "Large" individual and have very high arches. SO shoe selection is VERY important for my comfort and safety. I've been wearing these for 3 years and have been quite pleased with them.

The Addiction Walker has proved itself to be the answer for several foot problems that have plagued me for several years. Its broader and higher toe area and comfortable arch and heel, along with appropriate orthotics have made me mobile again. It provides good support for my feet and ankles and wears very well. I would recommend them for anyone with arthritis, plantar fasciitis, or just for those in need of good supportive walking shoes.

The best I've worn -
This is a great walking shoe. If you walk every day you will love the fit and feel of this shoe. The only complaint I have is the upper construction. I have had problems with some of the stitching coming loose. This shoe is a winner when it comes to comfort.

How I walk with neuropath -
1 am diabetic and have neuropathy that affects my feet and toes. These shoes are the only ones I have been able to find that helps me walk with any degree of comfort.
My podiatrist recommended New Balance shoes. I tried them and did not find the fit and width to be true to size.

Great Walking shoes -
Brooks Addiction Walking shoe feels great on my feet. I am on my feet for 12+ hours of the day. I walk water slides and on cement most of the day. Very comfortable and felt true to size. I would order another pair. I recommend this shoe to anyone on their feet a lot.

Very stable supportive shoe -
This shoe is very stable and supportive. Excellent arch support. Quality of leather is excellent. The only thing I found was that the right shoes toebox is slightly narrower than the left when looking down at both feet. I’m just very meticulous I’m sure the average person wouldn’t notice it. It’s not enough for me to return them because they are so comfortable.

Brooks Addiction Walker -
In the past three years I have had both of my feet broken and was introduced to Brooks Addiction Walker shoes, by my Doctor, and I wear them every day to walk in and for most every other occasion. I have found them to be extremely comfortable and easy on my feet. I highly recommend these shoes to any body that is on their feet all day long. I had my foot measured and was wearing size D in width but in the Brooks I needed to order EE's. And the length I had to get 1/2 size longer. This is my second pair and thank you Brooks now there are Black, Brown, and White to choose from.

This shoe fits and wears well -
This is a great shoe for me. I walk on tile and concrete floors all day. I have a narrow fairly flat foot and use orthotics. I have tried various shoes and the toe box was always too tight. I have worn this shoe in various colors and it is the best shoe for me year round.

Excellent every day shoe -
My office recently regressed from casual to business Casual. So I was looking for something to replace my Brooks Addiction 7 Casual Shoe. I have moderate pronation so I needed a show that would be good for pronation. This walking has proved to be perfect on both counts. Also it is rather nice looking and passes for a business casual shoe at the office. I would buy it again.

Very quick service and a very good shoe. Fit and comfort are 5-stars. Only thing I can find to complain about is the left shoe squeaks when I walk.

This is a great shoe -
I purchased these for my son. Since he has been wearing them his knees are not nearly as painful as they were.
This is a really good shoe for the price.

Brooks Action Walker -
These run a tad small so be aware. They are comfortable and have a nice bounce when walking. It's a nice shoe for the price.

A Rare Find-
Not a beauty but probably the most comfortable made by anyone today. When I have to wear a better looking shoe and my feet are killing me, I don't just take off the shoes but then put on the Brooks to restore and refresh my feet. 10 stars.

Most Comfortable Shoe He Ever Wore-
We have a terrible time finding shoes to fit my teen-aged son's feet because he wears a size that most manufacturers don't carry (12 1/2 EEEE). I was very happy to see that Brooks makes shoes in this size, and even happier when my son said, "This is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn." I do have to say that he didn't find these to be very stylish for a teen to wear, but he kept them anyway because they felt so good.

This shoe saved my job-
This shoe is amazing. It is everything it says it is. I work for long hours standing on a hard concrete floor in a commercial kitchen. The support and pronation control keeps my feet from being sore and stiff. The shoe wears well and lasts a long time.

Excellent-
I have been using the Addition Walker's since 2001. I recently purchased the brown Addiction Walker and they are terrific when walking on regular streets. The heel is softer than other soles and the flat wide soles keep my foot from twisting. I walk one to 2.5 miles daily. I recommend this shoe.

Great Shoe -
This shoe is fast becoming an annual Christmas present for my older son. He is a heavy, flatfooted man who works on his feet all day. These shoe provide him lots of support and pain free feet. They are a bit clunky looking, but that is not too noticeable since they are solid black.

I can walk without pain!
I have been diagnosed with Morton's Neuroma, a painful nerve condition caused for me by too many miles of rollerblading in too narrow skates. The Brooks Addictions came in a wide enough size (4E) and with high enough volume to allow for an orthotic.
I was skeptical that this simple approach would work, but it has! I do a lot of walking and there is little to no pain.
In regard to the look, they are fine. I can get away with them at work even when dressed up. If I had my 'druthers, I'd wear a differnt style, but this is a minor inconvenience to be able to walk without pain again.

Brooks Addiction Walter -
This is a great shoe. It is second only to the Brooks Synergy 2 in comfort, and I can wear it all day. Great in wet weather, but also breathable in summer. I have a second pair in another color so I can wear them more often. The brown is a very good color, subtle and not gaudy. This is a great shoe for traveling, too, for complete comfort and support in all sorts of weather. I have a narrow foot, and the narrow width feels just right. Zappos' service is the best.

Comfortable shoe for wide widths-
More comfortable than other wide-with walkers, including New Balance. I use the brown and black as my work shoes. I own a janitorial business and they are great if you are on your feet all day. The only problem I have is the availability of this shoe in white. They are always out of stock.
