Customer Reviews Brooks Adrenaline™ GTS 13

I had a pair of Adrenaline GTS 12 (the previous model of this shoe) that fit great so I ordered the same size in this model. Unfortunately the 13 fits very differently as they are much bigger than the 12. I can use them for everyday use, but when I tried running in them they slid too much and caused my calves to cramp up. Just be careful ordering shoes without trying them out first, even if they are the exact same model.

Purchased shoes 2 months ago and now the toe stitching is coming apart. Shoes are comfortable, fit great and feel good. But if I'm going to pay this much for a pair of running shoes I would expect them to last longer. I really like Brooks shoes and my last pair didn't have this problem. Maybe it was just a one time deal. Not sure if I would purchase another pair again. Overall disappointed.

I'm no marathon runner, but I do put up several miles per week. It was time for new shoes so I decided to try Brooks for all that I have been hearing of them. I used the Shoe Selector on their website and came to Zappos to order them. It's a fine shoe that fit like a glove. My problem with them is they are hard. There is pretty much no padding in them. It felt like running in dress shoes. Not for me.

The tread is just disintegrating right off the bat. I don't like the way my legs feel during and after. The GTS 12 were superior in my opinion and I'm not sure what happened but I do not like these particular shoes but have loved the previous GTS's.

I like the look of these shoes and they are very comfortable. The one huge gripe I have is with the sole - in the back the layer pieces of rubber come un-glued. This doesn't seem like a big deal, but when I am driving and my heel is against the carpeted floor mat it sucks when I need to go from the gas to the brake because the stupid flap gets hung up. I work with a guy who has these same shoes and the same problem. Brooks, start making your shoes in a country with quality control and I will start buying them again (even if I have to pay a little more for the quality!).
