This is my third pair of this year's newest, the Brooks Adrenaline 17s! Love the supportive, comfortable fit throughout my runs. I was an Asics Gel Kayano fan until I tried my first pair of Brooks Adrenaline shoes 3 years ago. I haven't bought another pair of Asics since! Brooks running shoes are very durable and look new through many wearings. Try a pair!

Good looking shoe, but a little short on toe room.

This is the perfect running shoe for me. It has a firm heel cup, a generous toe box and comfort cushioning. I can also substitute my orthotic for the insole. I have a low arch. I normally wear a 9M, but in this shoe, I wear a 9.5. Fits great!

Love the Brooks Adrenalines. Very comfortable! When I try to run in anything else, I end up with aches and pains.

Overall I am pleased with this shoe. It is a little snug with my own orthotics, but I find wearing the shoe is comfortable. It has good support for pronated ankles, and has a "comfy" sole. The sizing is smaller than New Balance, which has been my "go to" brand for many years.

Very poorly made, it's like you're wearing socks with a plastic sole.

I love these shoes! I was a dedicated Asics wearer but their toe box just kept getting narrower and narrower. I ordered a wide width in the Brooks shoe and it has more room than the 2E Asics. As an age 50+ runner with flat feet I also appreciate the arch support and the well-padded soles. These were comfortable right out of the box and they're the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. Will definitely be buying Brooks athletic shoes again!

This is my favorite Brooks shoe. I take a wide width, so am a little disappointed that the color choices are so limited for the wide widths. Other than that, the fit is great, the support is good, an overall good shoe.

I never tried Brooks before, but took a chance on the recommendation of other reviewers. I have to say, I agree with them: These shoes are comfortable right out of the box. In addition, I love the fun colors...I call these my unicorn shoes. For some reason, many shoe manufacturers think a wide width means the wearer wants to dress like the stereotype of a grandma, but not Brooks. Anyway, I love these shoes and I will definitely buy Brooks again. I got the EE due to a large bunion, but did not order up in size as some reviewers did. They fit perfectly. So happy to have a fashionable and comfortable shoe. Highly recommended.

Wow! The worlds most perfect sneaker. I over-pronate, so it's important that I have a sneaker that corrects for that tendency. I've had quite a few pairs of Brooks sneakers over the years, but THIS PAIR is by far the best one yet. It's PERFECT. I've never said that about a shoe or sneaker in my my life.

At first I wasn't sure about these shoes because of the crazy colors. But when I opened the box they looked neater then I thought that they would. Some of the reviews that I read said to get half size bigger. I was glad that I did. They are really comfortable. I have a lot of trouble with my heals and these shoes feel wonderful!

I've been in the Brooks Adrenaline GTS for a few years now. This model is even better than the last. I love this shoe but it is really nice to go on Zappos and get to pick out the style I want in it as opposed to being stuck with the style that the local store happens to have in stock. It fits just like previous versions of this model - I always get a 1/2 size up from my normal shoe size. This allow for plenty of comfort in the toe but it still grips my narrow heel well. Big improvement on this model from last is the shoelaces. They are shorter and don't require double knotting to keep them from trailing on the ground.

I have just started my running journey and really did my research on the best running shoe for flat feet. This shoe highly surpassed my expectations! One month in running 3-4 times per week, 1 5k completed and these shoes haven't let me down yet. Great support, great fit, wide toe box. Exactly what I wanted!

Finally a color I like on these shoes! My physical therapist put me in Brooks Adrenalines a couple years ago because of over pronation which contributed to my sore knees. Have to say, these shoes have been much better for me!

I have been wearing Brooks shoes for many years because of multiple foot problems (pronation, neuropathy, planter fastitis, arthritis, etc.) I decided to try the GTS17 in view of what others were saying about the toe box being bigger than lasts years model; I had tried that style and it was tight and uncomfortable. This GTS17 fit perfect right out of the box and I love the gray color and feel! I bought an 11 1/2 Medium which is the usual size I buy in Brooks shoes and they fit great! They are a little lighter weight than my Brooks Addiction 12's and the new Ariel 16, and are perfect for walking for exercise. Love these shoes and am glad I can alternate with the Addiction 12 and Ariels. I am in shoes from morning til night because of my foot problems and these shoes are a dream! Zappos is terrific for their fast service and friendliness as always. Love this company!

Nice shoe, but they run small. I normally take an 8 1/2, and size up 1/2 for athletic shoes, so I ordered a 9. It's too small, and I probably need a 9 1/2. But there's not enough arch support to warrant sizing up. I'll look for something else.

Best running shoe for a narrow foot. Great fit and overall comfort. Zero break in time. Have retired 15 previous pairs.

I loved the look and support of these shoes, but felt that the size 11 was just a bit too small, and I have never needed to go above an 11 to fit a shoe before. Sized at least 1/2 size too small, IMO. I ended up keeping the Mizuno Wave Catalyst 2, which looks, supports, and feels just as good, and is exactly true to size for an 11 M.

I have always worn asics, but when my physical therapist recommended Brooks, I thought I would give them a try. I found them to be very comfortable. I was even able to wear them without my orthotics which is really a testimony to their support. The color of the pair I purchased was also a deciding factor. I have the metallic charcoal black, which goes with everything including outfits that are not meant to be workout clothes. In the future, I will purchase Brooks!

Really great colors and comfy out of the box. Lately I have read a lot of different reviews that suggest ordering a half size up, and when I do they are too big. This shoe however really does run a 1/2 size small. I strongly suggest ordering a larger size.
