As always, a great shoe. Nice cushioning without being heavy. I keep buying them!

I really like everything about this shoe, but one thing. It runs narrow. I originally ordered the same size and width that I have always used, but this time I had to send them back and order one size wider. Now the little toe is tight to the side of the shoe. From what I have read recently this seems to be a problem that comes up quite a bit. I guess if I had a very narrow foot they would be great. Had to send these back also.

After a disappointing experience with New Balance, I am happy to be wearing Brooks again. I have a very wide foot (4E) with a high arch and these Adrenaline GTS 17s fit like a glove, no break-in period necessary. I hope Brooks has solved their QA issues with the GTS 16, which starting falling apart after a few months.

Like many brooks products, they are excellent in construction. They work on the streets great too. Very pleased with these shoes.

I had to return because it was too short. I almost always order a full size larger than my street shoe. Based on others' reviews I decided to try only a half size larger, but I should have stuck with my normal practice. I am giving the shoe five stars simply because I liked it out of the box and it seemed to have quality construction, but I haven't run in them yet. Waiting to receive the proper size.

Love these sneakers! Finding stylish, well-fitting running shoes in wide widths has always been a challenge. But these sneakers look and feel amazing. I always look forward to the miles ahead as long as these bad boys are on my feet!
The width and size felt true to size. The arch support is incredible! I have very flat feet (close to no arch) and these shoes truly help improve my stability and comfort, as I put in the work.

Love these shoes - just bought a second pair. They feel stiff out of the box, but very comfortable insole and uppers when put on, and actually feel light during a run. I wear orthotic inserts under the insoles, and these shoes have enough room and "give" that they feel good even with inserts.

After returning several pair of ASICS that were too tight -- even a size bigger and a size wider - these GTS 17's fit great. (10.5, 4E) They feel a bit heavier at first, but the sole feels like it will wear very well, and they were great on a 5-miler this morning. I hate paying so much for shoes I will wear out quickly, but you get what you pay for.

I love Brooks shoes. Was disappointed with the 16 because the sole would start peeling off within 3-4 months. Not typical for Brooks. Hoping Brooks fixed that on this shoe.

This was my second pair of Brooks. I like them as much as my Brooks Ghost 6. Feel great when on my feet for long periods of time. Even though I do use these for jogging, most of the time I wear them for when I'm on hard tile and concrete at work.

My son loves these shoes! They are the only ones we have been able to find that fit his large/wide feet and hold them up. His feel are as flat as can be!

I originally ordered a size 10 which is my norm. Upon receipt I noticed they were tight and I compared to my older ASICS Gel Kayano 20s. They appear to be a good 1/2 size smaller in length which my foot confirmed. The Brooks line has eclipsed ASICS in my view as the latter changed the last and it no longer provides a comfortable fit. I'm looking forward to getting the GTS 17 in size 10.5.

I have had very large bone spurs removed from both my big toes. I am a martial artist, as well as someone who does a bunch of plyo, jump rope, running and all sorts of crazy movement. My biggest test of a shoe is whether or not I think about them while I am training hard. The GTS Seventeen is, perhaps, the best training shoe I have used. They are my second pair of Brooks, and each pair gets better. For anyone with any kind of foot issues, who also works out or runs hard, you can't beat them in my experience. Even if you don't have foot issues, but want a fantastic shoe, these will not fail you.

These are great shoes that have a firm foundation. They stabilize the foot and help prevent pronation. BUT as others have written here, they run small. I usually wear 9 M but finally found that the 9.5 EE actually fit best without squeezing my feet or rubbing my toes. Given Zappos great return policy I was able to essentially try on several sizes in order to find the right ones.

I've used adrenalines for 3 years now and never want to go to anything else. I've experienced all different brands and styles and nothing has worked for me except my brooks.

My husband loves this brand of sneakers. First, they come in his size--16. Second, they are the most comfortable sneaker he has ever worn. His back and legs don't hurt after hours standing on his feet in his woodworking shop. They are well worth the money.

Good support, but they run 1/2 a size small. So upsize for an adequate length.

I've put over 35 miles on these shoes in 2 weeks and I feel like I made a great investment for my ankles and arches. I have been running on graded surfaces, mainly asphalt and running trails. I was coming off of a sprained ankle recovery when I bought these and had a slow recovery prior to using them. Honestly, have not had any joint issues since.
