These shoes are very comfortable. I walk about 6 miles a day and need extra support as I am recovering from multiple leg injuries. With these shoes I am back to normal walking with no discomfort. I don?t run, but I am a very fast walker and I love the stability and comfort of these shoes.

I have had a pair of these in white for my job as a nurse and I no longer suffer foot pain.
Now I have this pair for everyday getting around and I am hooked.
I like being able to get a 2E width.

I have been wearing Brooks Addiction walkers for the past 2 years .I walk/stand on concrete 10+ hrs a day at work. I couldn't do it without these shoes. They make my day bareable! They are true to size,have ample toe room,and are very affordable.

Love these shoes. They give me the extra support I need for my fallen arch, wear well, and are quite comfortable. I wear these for all but formal occasions.

I walk in these shoes, and I do not close to run in them. For my purposes these shoes are great.

I use my Walkers as work shoes. I do a lot of standing, walking, and crawling around in aircraft fuel tanks so I abuse the area where the rubber sole wraps up the toe of the shoe. The bond line between these two pieces never fail!. My shoes, after two years of service, may not be pretty any more but the soles and the uppers are in perfect working order. All I do is change out the removable inner sole. Best work shoe I,ve ever owned.

I walk about 10 miles a day at work & this was the first sneaker I found that didn’t irritate my plantar fasciitis. I buy 3-4 pairs a year.

Excellent shoes for my 12 hour shifts as an RN in the hospital! No slip and the only shoes that keep my legs from aching by the end of the day. Very comfortable.

I have 3 pairs of Brooks Addiction. These shoes are so supportive and comfortable I wear them all the time. The arch support is better than any other walker.
Please don't stop making them!

I'm a senior citizen, love these shoes, large toe box, my orthotics fit perfect and I never have to "break " them in! They are comfortable from right out the box!

My podiatrist recommended these along with Superfeet Green inserts as an alternative to bunion and hammertoe surgery. The relief was immediate and long-lasting. No surgery! My feet feel wonderful. I also have a pair of Addictions runners and they work equally well. These leather ones are great for rainy weather and more formal activities like work.

I wore New Balance shoes for 15 years before discovering Brooks Addiction Walkers. I have a narrow foot but need a deep and wide toe box to accommodate my toes and my bunions, as well as needing a thick sole. After New Balance redesigned the 840 line, I spent a small fortune on stretching out the shoes. The shoemaker couldn’t stretch the leather any further, and my feet and bunion were still killing me. Then I discovered Brooks Addiction Walkers, and I am now pain free.

In general I love these shoes! I have a lot of bone pain in my feet and toes and could never find a shoe that would be comfortable until I wore these. They were the recommendation of my doctor, and I am so glad that he had me get them. They give me the support that I need and their firmness helps so that my bones are protected. I would like for your company to make the same addiction base that is on this particular shoe and add your other types of breathable tops.

They were for my wife she is on her feet all day long and a high piece restaurant. She said they were very comfortable the only issue that she had was that they are very slippery around water. Other than that she's very happy with them

Very well made shoes and my husband loves the Brooks Addiction Walkers (with his Mortons neuroma). I love Brooks ghost and have about 3 pairs of those. These shoes were very heavy and stiff which was only a problem because they hurt my ankle bone where they hit. Quality is great; they last a long time (husband's shoes) and appear very sturdy.

I love these, they are warm in the winter (the leather) and they kind of look like yeezys!
If you pair them with fashionable choices they look more streetwear and less orthopedic!

The only shoes that don't make my feet, ankles, knees hurt. I buy a new pair every 4 months due to how much I walk at work as a Medical Assistant.
FANTASTIC shoes.

I bought these for my sister who had diabetic neuropathy, and these shoes were recommended to help with her walking issues. She had purchased a previous pair and loved them, but couldn’t find them in her usual store. I told her about Zappos, and ordered them for her, and they were less expensive than ones she had purchased on sale at a department store.
