I have very wide feet, and recurring plantar fasciitis so the Addiction is a good shoe for me if I add an orthotic. Very comfortable and stylish. Brooks' usual good quality.

I have feet that are about as flat as a board and I am severely over pronate. Brooks are the only shoes that I have ever found to be comfortable for me. Particularly the Beast and Addiction. I wore out my previous addiction 11 shoes and purchased these addiction 12. They feel just as good, although I kind of liked the colors of the previous model better. Great shoes. They have a customer for life.

My husband has flat feet and can't wear very many tennis shoes without dealing with comfort issues. I talked him into trying Brooks because that is the only kind I wear since trying them and he loves them. Purchased his size in the extra wide and they fit just right and now they are almost all he wears!

I have flat feet, hyperpronation and ligament laxity on both of my feet. I put in orthotics and still have plenty of room. I workout with these shoes, and use them for daily walking too. They are comfortable, they help with my foot pain. The front of the shoes are nice and wide. I'd highly recommend these shoes, they are nice and hold up well. Far as style and colors, they are nice but a bit lame. The all black shoes is kind of nice and goes along with darker jeans. Wish they made nicer cooler shoes for people who need wider shoes with stability. :) I just ordered a 2nd pair since my first one is getting a little worn down.

I was introduced to the Brooks Addiction by a podiatrist, to help with over pronation. I've have about 6 pairs or the walkers and 8 pairs of the more running style. It is the shoe I was 70% of the time. I have feet bordering on 6E, but the 4E does the job for the most part. Sometimes the toe feels a little snug, especially with custom orthotics. They are comfortable enough to walk the 5-20 miles I average a day. They wear out a little fast, a pair generally only lasts me 8 months or so. But I do walk a lot.

By far the best shoe! I work for Fedex express and I am always running up and down driveways or stairs! The shoe has really good support and it's really comfortable.

I love Brooks sneakers and the Addiction 12 is great. Very comfortable and great cushioning. They come in a wide size to help with pronation. Highly recommend this shoe.

Very comfortable with good arch support. My usual size is 9.5 4E. I tried a size 10 and they were too tight. Had to go to a 10.5 4E for a comfortable fit. This is my second pair.

I am not going to run a marathon or save the world in these shoes, but rather go to the gas station and watch a Sooner's game. I am young, but already have a knee replacement, so comfort and style are paramount. These shoes are comfortable for walking and look subdued enough for work. I am sure I will buy another pair when these are ready for retirement.

Great solid shoe. Extremely comfortable and spacious enough to accommodate my orthotics. The white hump on the inside of the shoe is a little old person like, but the comfort makes it worth it.

Great fit, for heavily pronated feet. True to size and width. On the pricey side, but comfort on the feet.

Favorite shoes ever! I have used and liked adrenaline series and tried these due to pronation. They are very comfortable and not too stiff.

I wear size 15 A shoe and have difficulty finding walking shoes. I tried the Brooks Addiction Walker in a narrow(B) and was very pleased didn't need to add in additional support or filler. I wanted a pair of mesh shoes for cooler summer walking and choose the the Brooks Addiction 12. Again very pleased. Comfortable and size is good. I look at the lace eyelets and question their strength but time will tell. Love the shoe(s)

Very comfortable. I ordered up one-half size, and probably should have ordered wider; they seem to fit a bit small. I put in the Smart Feet insoles for more support.

I have bought the Brooks Addiction 12 shoes four or five times now for my son who wears a size 16. He thinks they are comfortable. We like them because they are black and don't make his foot look bigger than it is. His quote is "I like these shoes. I want Zappos to keep selling them."
