Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction™ Walker

I ordered a pair of New Balance which didn't work out. I had worn New Balance for years but they changed their design. When I called Zappos to return the shoes, and ask for an alternative, the sales rep. said that most of his senior customers like ths shoe. They were right, the Brooks Addiction Walker are excellent shoes for walking, comfortable, stable, good looking. I am very happy with my purchase!

These shoes are fantastic! I have plantar fasciitis along with tarsal tunnel syndrome. These shoes really help and I can wear them with black pants. Would highly recommend them for anyone (especially if you need to wear orthotics).

First time buying this brand and followed the review that said they ran short, ordered a half size larger and they fit perfect. They are the most comfortable walking shoes I have purchased in quite a while. Liked mine so much ordered a pair for my husband who walks 6.4 miles 7 days a week.

These are the most comfortable shoes! They are like walking on air!

These shoes have been life savers for me. I haven't worn anything else for several years. I just bought the last pair in stock of my size. I am very sad.

I have a hard time finding ww black sneakers for work. These were a true ww and I would buy them again.

This is my second pair of these shoes and I love them. I have constant foot and leg pain and these shoes really helped relieve the pain. The support in them is great. They keep me from walking on the outside of my foot, which helps with the pain. My chiropractor suggested I try these and I have been so happy that I took his advice. Will continue to wear them as my all the time shoe.

These are the best walking shoes that I have had in 10 years! I should have gotten them a long time ago.

Most comfortable shoes ever. Every year when I wear them out I buy a new pair from Zappos. Wear them to work every day. Buying my 3rd pair of walkers.

Love this shoe for working out. My orthotics are very thick and fit perfectly inside this shoe. I have been purchasing Brooks for 5+ years!

I sent back a New Balance walking shoe, my usual brand, because they've been making the tongue so long it butts up into my ankle. Decided to give the Addiction Walker a try, despite the higher price. Move over NB, there's a new shoe in town. This Brooks was comfy right out of the box, with athletic socks on, with room for my custom orthotics and the tongue was just the right length. I have a new brand! Thanks Zappos for the fast service on returns.

These are the only shoes that accommodate my orthotic. Ghastly big (EE width), but they work. Second pair!

I found Brooks shoes were sold through Zappos via the internet. Since I had a pair,still in wearable condition, I asked for the same style and size. They were shipped (free!) and turned out to be too narrow. When I called about that, a dear lady suggested I try the next width. I sent back the first pair and the new size was sent quickly to me...all free shipping! They are perfect. In fact today I saw my podiatrist and he said they are excellent shoes. Hooray! Thanks, Zappos, for great service and fun communications.

These were recommended by my doctor, as I have arthritis and plantar fasciitis. What a difference they have made along with the recommended treatments, I'm finally walking without pain. I got the wide and glad I did, it gives me plenty of room in the foot bed, so if I want to wear thick socks I can with no problems, and my ortho inserts, fit perfect.

This is a great shoe! Very well made and very comfortable. I have circulation issues in my feet requiring me to wear a very wide shoe. These did the trick. I may order another pair. Zappos was excellent as always!

This shoe provides comfort and stability and arch support. I am rehabbing from a broken leg and this shoe allows me to walk without discomfort. The dips on the side are low enough that they don't rub on the ankle bone. Would have liked some other color choices though.

The best comfort for a foot injury! I have been purchasing these shoes from Zappos for years. After a terrible injury to my foot and ankle, after surgery, my foot didn't heal well. These are the only shoes I can wear comfortably. Drs told me I'd never walk again... I've proved them wrong with my Brook's Addiction Walkers! The only place I could get wide and double wide. This allows to minimize the pain to my surgical area. They don't rub against it. They are comfortable, well made, quality is utmost here and best of all, you get them from Zappos, which is the best company for any product they carry. Their customer service is unsurpassed, their delivery is unbelievable. I get my shoes two days after I ordered... and free!!! Where else can you get that awesome care?!

The strap is very comfortable, that was my biggest concern. It turned out the shoe was too skinny and it usually isn't a problem for me in Clarks. I had to return them, so sad.

Really good shoes - For me, these shoes are great! Good, firm, unbouncy sole with an exceptionally comforting heel. They are really good for walking yet can be worn out for dinner because they're not too garish or visible as exercise shoes. I am so pleased to have found this combination, wish I'd found it years ago!

Brooks are the best! This brand of shoes is the absolute best if you overpronate like I do. It is the ONLY brand I buy anymore because instead of having to hope the sneaker breaks in to be comfortable, they are comfortable from day 1. They come in 6W. I have to buy other brands in 6.5 M to come close to the same fit.

This is an amazingly good looking winter boot! They look good with everything. I bought my normal size and like previous posters said - I doubt I could wear very thick socks with these, but they are perfectly warm with regular socks. They are also super comfortable w/ no socks, which i sometimes do if it's not too cold. The first time i wore them, they did cut into my foot, but they broke in quickly. One downfall - no loops to pull them on. so until the leather really loosens up, they are difficult to pull on.

Excellent walking shoe - This shoe fits my foot very well and has excellent arch and heel support. I would highly recommend it to others.

Most Excellent Online Dealer I have ever dealt with! This was my first order from Zappos. I ordered two pairs of Brooks Addiction Walker shoes. The shoes were exactly as described and wonderful quality--as I expected from Brooks. The big difference for me was the extremely fast shipping from Zappos!!!! I ordered these shoes on a Monday afternoon and they were delivered to my door the next morning. Thank you so much for being so good to your customers!!!! I will be a loyal customer for a long time to come! Karen T

Great nursing shoe - As a nurse who does 12 hours shifts, this shoe is perfect. All leather so cleans easily, professional in appearance. I usually wear a 1/2 size smaller so go up 1/2 size when ordering for the best fit.

Outstanding Shoe! My Wife is on her feet for the majority of her workday and she use to complain about her feet hurting. I bought her these shoes and I haven't heard complaint one! She said she loves these shoes and I'm about to buy her another pair.
