Comfortable and durable slow jog\/fast walking shoe that is available in a narrow (B) width. Because the shoe fits so well, I am able to exercise longer and regularly to keep high blood pressure in check, which is important.

The Adrenaline GTS 9 is a great fit and support for me. Med arch size 10 D. The stock insoles are pretty good and I have not needed to change out to my custom insoles. These shoes give me the support and comfort I need for the longer jogs on the treadmill (4-6 miles). Or for the 5K runs with no foot discomfort. I used to be a Brooks Beast user, but now the Adrenaline series are my favorite.

They are a very comfortable pair of shoes. They look good and are great for working all day. I have a flat narrow foot and have fit better than most.

As a more-than-moderate pronator, I have found the Adrenaline GTS series to be the best pair of shoes to prevent joint pain. They are light, comfortable, and supportive. I wish the price tag wasn't so high, but I have yet to find a cheaper shoe that does the job and I'm not willing to switch.

Absolutely fantastic shoe, I have a narrow foot and have had serious trouble finding a running shoe that is comfortable and the right width and these definitely fit the bill. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

The Adrenaline GTS 9 are some of the best fitting athletic shoes I've had in a long, long time. They are also the first pair in several years that don't aggravate my shin splints. I am a large guy (6', 300+ lbs), so athletic shoes that hold up to my abuse are difficult to find. I formerly wore "The Beast", but recent changes to their design have left me disappointed the last couple of pair. I tried the Dyad 5, which were very disappointing for support. I'll be buying more pairs of this shoe!

Great wide width fit -
I have a wide foot, not a high volume foot - the 4E is perfect. I typically end up with a full size large to get the width, not with these. Great cushioning and modest support, I run pretty neutral but enjoy a shoe that isn't too mushy.

I have pronounced bunions and bought this shoe in a 9 wide. It fits great. I usually wear an 8.5, but had to go up a size in this shoe. I also bought the Saucony Grid Omni 8 and they are great, too - but the Brooks Adrenaline are more comfortable to my foot which is narrow except for the bunions. I have moderate pronation and this shoe has great support. My arches are medium and this doesn’t feel like it’s over or under supporting them. With a narrow foot, the heel slips a bit for me, but with some special loops on the final eyelets, I can make the ankle and heel tighter. Brooks designers: I’d love to be able to buy a wide shoe in something other than blue and white!

I placed an order for my husband for Christmas. The funny thing was, when he opened them Christmas morning, the shoes were a woman's 10 1/2! Zappos helped me replace the shoe for a man's with speed and ease. Now my husband's running happy! Thanks.

This is my 4th year wearing the Brooks: Adrenaline GTS. A 3 mile a day 5 days a week walker, these shoes have provided great comfort, support and durability.

I bought these for my husband who runs about 4 miles daily. He weighs 225 (these shoes are recommended for heavier runners). They are lightweight and comfortable and airy. He loves them and they also help correct his slightly off footfall. Definitely a great purchase!

My son has had two pairs of these shoes now. The first he wore daily until he outgrew them and they held up wonderfully; we would not have replaced them had they not been too small. He finds them comfortable for daily wear and for running (although he doesn't run long distances so I can't comment on their utility for serious runners). The shoes are neat and compact in appearance.

Awesome shoe. I have Plantar Fasciitis so a good shoe is important. This shoe is great! On my 3rd pair. Incidentally, other shoes (like Rockport) my size is 10.5 - 11.0. On these, I have to order size 12 so Brooks must run smaller. I tried going with Brooks in 11.5 (2E) but those shoes were too small, so I returned for size 12 and it fits perfect. By the way, Zappos return process couldn\'t be easier. I had my replacement size 12 within 1 week after discovering the size 11.5 didn\'t fit.

This was the first order I have made with Zappos and I have been really pleased with the entire process. I am deployed overseas at the moment and needed a new pair of running shoes to handle all the treadmill running I have been doing of late. My last pair of Brooks (Ghost) were very comfortable, but broke down rather quickly. I read the the reviews on the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 9 and have been really surprised at the comfort and durability of these shoes. I run roughly 3-5 miles daily on old treadmills and these have held up really well for the 1st month so far. Thanks Zappos for the speed of getting my shoes to me; it has made a big difference!

These are perfect shoes. I was long a fan of the Asics Nimbus but the current generation doesn\'t fit me right anymore. I struggled unsuccessfully to find an alternative that fit as well as those older models did. A friend recommended the Brooks and they are phenomenal right out of the box. You can\'t go wrong with these. I also recommend going to their website to take the quiz to find out which shoes work best for you.

I want to start with a few words about Zappos. They are great! I wouldn't buy a pair of shoes from anyone else on the internet. They have a great selection, great service, and fair prices. If you have any problems or need to do an exchange, no problem. They will go the extra mile and do whatever it takes. What more could you ask for? Now, for the Brooks. I'm not a runner. I purchased the Brooks to wear at work, and in the gym. These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had on my feet. They are very light, yet they provide excellent support with a great cushion. They are well constructed, and they have a super look. No more Nike or New Balance. I'm all in on the Brooks!

Great walking shoe -
I needed a shoe to aid in my continued recovery from a posterior tendon rupture. I chose this particular shoe, as it hugs comfortably the mid-section of my foot, and expands nicely to accommodate my wider front foot while it also cups my narrow heel adequately. When I wear the shoes for rapid walking on paved surfaces, I have discovered that my arches tire less and I maintain a natural gait without evidence of pronation. (Otherwise I have a severe pronation problem.)

So far, have found no other brand that measures up.

This was the successor to the Adrenaline GTS 8, which I had purchased before. Shoe fit very well and color was just what I wanted. Zappos service was very fast. I've usually purchased either Brooks or New Balance tennis shoes for their comfort and performance. This shoe felt great right out of the box!
