I have worn the Brooks Beasts for the past several years and loved them, but their price has risen dramatically and it is impossible to find them on sale in my size. I looked for an alternative and found the Brooks Addiction 11. I have only had them a few weeks but they seem as sturdy and tough as the Beast but at a cheaper price. I will see how they hold up over the long haul, but so far, so good. They are very comfortable shoes. My experience with Brooks shoes is that they run a little short and tight so you may want to bump up half a size or so.

These are men's shoes, but I am a woman. So with that said...This is my first pair of Brooks shoes. I used to wear New Balance shoes, but they started fitting weird, so then I tried Asics, which were great, but I decided to give the Brooks a try after reading many reviews and my husband's recommendation. These Brooks are my latest Addiction!

Doctor had me get the womens Brooks Addiction 11 for my severe over pronation condition. They were great. I wanted a black pair and did not like the look of the womens black Addiction walkers so ordered the mens Addiction 11. I had to figure out the sizing, mens vs womens, but got the job done. Love these super supportive shoes!

I have only owned and worn these shoes for a week, but so far, they are very comfortable and appear to be solid and well made. Very satisfied with this purchase.

Zappos is the greatest company to deal with...bought sneakers in December 2014 and never wore. Too small. They exchanged them for a larger size, give me back a refund because priced changed and I returned the other sneakers and because price was lower. Bought 2 sneakers and received them the next day...and customer service rep was so helpful. I would highly recommend Zappos to everyone.

I've been wearing the Brooks Dyad for several years. Thought I'd try the Addiction for a change, plus they're less expensive. Excellent shoe with great support.

I've owned previous version (Addition 10, 9, etc.) and always have enjoyed the stability and cushioning - in fact, when I see the shoes at a good price, I'll buy 2, and rotate them during my heavy training months when I run every day. Color of the Grey is better in-person - has nice silver piping that doesn't show up well on the website picture.

If you have flat feet/overpronation, I highly recommend giving brooks a try. I wear walking/running shoes for work because I'm on my feet all day and have flat feet. I need all the support I can get. Within a week of wearing the brooks, I noticed a significant relief in joint pain in my knees, hips, and back. They hold your foot in a way that allows your joints to be properly aligned and your muscles are in a more effective position. I'm not a doctor or anything but I know I've felt a huge difference since switching to the Brooks.

These are very comfortable. They are a little on the heavy side for running shoes. They could have used a longer pair of laces.

After going through 2 pair of addiction walking shoes I switched back to running shoes.The walkers are more expensive and have poor traction. These fit as well,are just as comfortable,cost $30 less and have great traction.

Only used them a few times so far, but they feel very supportive, rugged and sturdy. Maybe I'm used to my worn out ones, but these are very comfortable and feel like great protection. I'm very happy with these shoes. My old pair was Brooks also - they make good running shoes. Highly recommend.

I switched from the Beast 12 model which I liked. These shoes are heavier but provide better support which should help with my metatarsal pain. The feel both narrower and shorter in length than the Beast model. Hoping they will stretch a bit in time. I like the look.

These shoes are very comfortable from the minute I put them on. Great quality, and shipped the same day, and they ordered on a Sunday.

My size is 7 but I ordered 7.5 as I was told that your feet expand while running. Tried running on my treadmill, fits great and feels comfy with a good cushion. Color is black so need to get some darker socks unless you are okay with contrasting colors for shoes and socks.

I have a large, wide foot and also wear orthotics. Most shoes do not have enough room in the toe box for my feet. These have ample room and are great. I only wish they had some better styling. but I'll take comfort over style any day.

Great fit, right out of box. My foot is Narrow and the B was perfect. I work in a restaurant and this was perfect.

I bought these for my husband as a birthday gift. He has issues with his right IT band and needs good support when he runs. He absolutely loves these! He had the Addiction 10's before but says he thinks these are even better motion control than those. I would recommend for runners who pronate pretty severely, as my husband does.

I got the shoe in three (3) days! But the laces did not match length wise. Other than that the shoe is comfortable.

These are very comfortable. I usually wear a 10½D but in this shoe an 11½N fit perfectly. It took four pairs to find the right fit. With Zappos' great customer service that was not a problem. I cannot speak to the durability since I have only had them one week but I can tell you that they feel like walking on a cloud. They seem to help with overpronation also!

I have always been pleased with Zappos. This is a great shoe, and the delivery was more impressive than usual. I ordered it on a Saturday and it arrived Monday morning. Wow!

Recently increased my running milage due to a new job in law enforcement, I injured my knees using a different pair of sneakers and pushing myself too hard. After some research, I found out I have issues with overpronation. These sneakers are a perfect if you have issues with flat feet, I couldn't believe the difference, they are super supportive. I will be buying more shoes by brooks for sure.

I have worn the Brooks Addiction for many, many years. They are the best shoe for me. They are a good anti-pronation shoe and with my custom insert provide great stability and comfort.
