Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction™ Walker

I absolutely love these shoes. After ankle surgery two years ago, I am still having a hard time finding shoes to fit. These make my feet and ankle feel great!

Comfortable shoes with great arch support that fit my narrow feet perfectly. Just what I needed especially while recovering from a broken foot bone. Plan to wear them a lot even after the foot is healed.

My feet in bad shape with arthritis neuropathy and bone on bone. Found I needed wider shoes and insert. The brooks are helping a lot will order more.

These shoes, so far, seem to be a good replacement for the sturdy, good fitting, comfortable shoes that New Balance used to make but no longer do. These shoes have all the qualities I need to stay comfortable on my feet all day long. Great support on my back also. They fit true to size and width which have become a serious problem with a lot of other brands. I don't mind paying a hefty price for shoes as long as they deliver the qualities I'm looking for. Thank you Brooks and thank you Zappos.

I've been running since 1983 mainly in Nike Airs because of heel spurs---This shoe is perfect--just walked 5k right out of the box --even put in my kevlar orthotic--sooo very comfortable--taking it to Europe for 3 weeks!

Good shoes but no orthotic friendly. When I tried them with the orthotic, my foot came out when walking. Too bad because they felt right to the length and width.

A beautiful walking shoe. Excellent leather, well constructed. Many loose threads in the fabric of the lace holes. If I were to keep them, I would have trimmed them and I believe without damage. It has a hard heel area below the insert, creating a very firm effect. The insert creates a cushiony cradling surface. I needed to remove the inner sole for a stronger arch. They felt great when trying them on, but then they felt stiff wearing them around the house all day. But then after a week. I made the decision to return. But if you have a true medium arch, I highly recommend them.

Wow! Comfort and stability. I just came out of New Balance 857s and my feet were a mess. The heel was so wide that my feet were sliding all over the place and after a few months the shoes became completely unstable I was limping. I put these on and I have new feet! I had an older pair in Suede and I said let me try the sneakers. Huge difference from New Balance. Try them.

I needed a pair of walking shoes that would help my over-pronation and I ordered these. They are a little stiff but they feel really good on my feet. I had a pair of Brooks that was a size 8 and after a while, it seemed that they were too short so I ordered these in a half size larger. I have plenty of toe room now and I highly recommend these shoes.

These are excellent well made shoes. I wear a custom orthotic as I have very narrow feet. This is the shoe my doctor recommends. I don't even have to break it in. Excellent shoe for everyone.

Brooks shoes are the best for support and comfort. These shoes are not stark white which is great so they don't draw attention since I wear a 10.

Great company to work with. I have ordered many times and am always pleased with product and procedure. Thanks Zappos.

It is simply the best for stability and comfort. I use an orthotic for arch support and overpronation and it is perfect. I keep buying them year after year. I wish they were cuter, but it doesn't matter. They are the best.

I own two pairs! I have bunions and overpronate. I love to walk on nearby trails and my shoes do get dirty so I bought a 2nd pair to wear when I am trying to look a bit cleaner. They are worth it. I have several pairs of other walking shoes and I will not wear them except for around the house. These are the best shoes for my feet.

Very comfortable. I usually have a problem with getting shoes that fit true to size, but these are perfect.

These are a keeper for my 10W high instep feet. I also have slight pronation. I hurt my heel a year ago and need shoes that will help reduce pain when walking. These feel great and I tested them by walking very fast down a long carpeted hallway. I was between these and Drew Flash II -- both are good, but in Drew the heel rises out of the sneaker more when I walk, and they are too roomy for me in the toes. Brooks felt comfier for my feet.

Perfect fit on my 10W, high instep feet! They do feel a bit too hot inside, but for those of us with difficult feet, foot temperature is the last thing that could make me return shoes.

Love these shoes. Tennis shoe that looks a little dressier. Stable for walking.

Love these shoes. I used to buy to 2E's and have them stretched so they would be wide enough due to large bunions and just plain wide feet. I just had extensive foot surgery and I am so happy because I just ordered a new pair and they fit perfectly -- no stretching needed. These shoes are perfect in every way. Bought the black and coming back for the white.

These shoes were recommended by my doctor for plantar facaitis in my foot. They are very supporting and have helped. My doctor recommended I order a half size larger than I usually wear and also to get the wide width.

I knew the right size because I have another pair which was fitted in a shoe store. They're 1/2 size larger than I usually buy. Very comfortable. I had plantar fasciitis and these feel great.

I've been wearing these for years now. As a nurse I'm on my feet a lot and you can't beat these shoes for comfort and support.

Love the shoes, most comfortable I've had in a long time even after "minor" toe surgery. Delivery very prompt.

When I first put this shoe on, I thought is was a little snug, I have a very wide foot. However, in no time in all, they are just perfect. I also, needed a non-flexible sole and this shoe fit the bill. I would reccommed This shoe to anyone.
