This shoe fit a little better than the adrenaline 15's. I did not purchase the 16's because of the reviews. These feel lighter and the toe-box seems a tiny bit roomier, but not by much. I still love this shoe because of the stability it gives. So far, I've run 4 to 7 miles each time I've worn these. No big issues, except it seems my left big toe rubs a little. It could be the thick socks. I'll try different types of socks to see if the fit improves. Otherwise, these are super comfortable.

These are the most comfortable sneakers I have ever had. I use them for walking and find that my feet are not at all tired after four miles. Highly recommend!

Over the years I feet seem to have gotten wider and I was so happy to find this sneaker available in extra wide in the toe box. Still fits nicely in the heel, but gives my toes the room they need.

My wide feet with a narrow heel are hard to fit. However, this particular style of Brooks Adrenaline fit, even with an insert. Finally, a pair that fit! I'd advise go up 1/2 size, as with a lot of shoes these days!

I spend a lot of time walking around town for my job. I love the Black-Ness because it's less drama when I actually spend time in the semi-conservative office.
My feet are wide and the shoes accommodate accordingly.

I love Brooks Adrenaline for my over pronation. I just wish the style was better. These were the least objectionable. They arrived quickly and fit perfectly. So much easier than trying to find the style in my size at a store.

I waited too long to buy another pair. When I compared the Brooks that I had been wearing with these GTS 17 Adrenalines, I realized why I returned to this model. My feet had been abused from any years of running 5K's and doing other aerobic exercises (with other brands). My feet need these shoes.

I have been wearing Brooks transcend 2 for a couple of years. This shoes (GTS 17) feels little less cushioning than my transcend, but still feels quite sufficient. For this shoes, I was able to buy wide. And when I wore it for the first time out of box, it fit my feet like a grove. With my transcend (normal width), my feet start to feel pressure & hurt after several hours of wear, so I couldn't use it for my work (nursing, 12 hours shift). But with this shoes, I can wear it for 12 hours on my feet and it's so comfortable that I even forget wearing. I am extremely happy with this shoes, and seriously considering buying another pair. I used to wear Nike and Asics, but cannot go back after Brooks.

I wore Asics for years, but in the past several years, they simply were not as good---not nearly enough support, not true to size (getting more narrow), etc. I've tried many shoes, but these Brooks Adrenalines are the ones I was looking for! I walk or jog every day, several miles per day, mostly on logging trails.

I love this shoe. I haven't liked the Adrenaline since the 14, until this version. I normally wear an 8-8 1/2 in shoes but a 9 in Brooks. The 9 fit with room in the toe box. The shoe has support, but also cushion. I bought a pair to run in and a pair for work. I work as a nurse and need a shoe that will support my feet for 12 hour shifts.

I was tempted to order a half size larger than normal based on the reviews I'd read, but I'm glad I didn't. I am actually stepping out of the shoe in my normal size when I work out. They are more than roomy in the toe box for my WW foot, and I wonder if I wouldn't have been better in a single W, but I didn't realize how big they were until I wore them to the gym. They are still functional for moderate exercise in the gym, but I can't wear them for anything more strenuous. I am disappointed in this shoe, but never in Zappos.

This is Brooks Adrenaline GTS 17 is, without a doubt, one of the best running shoes I have EVER purchased. I LOVE the Brooks shoe and have a different pair, the Brooks Defyance 9, that I wear around the house with no fear of slipping on wood floors! So, what are you waiting for? Try the Brooks line, and you will never want another running shoe!

Wonderful shoe! I recently got orthotics due to repetitive stress fractures and tears while being active. These shoes feel like I'm walking on pillows! I actually ordered these and a pair of New Balance as they were both on the recommended pair of shoes given to me by my doctor. I ended up returning the New Balance. Never heard of Brooks before, but I'll definitely be buying more pairs in the future. Great shoe!

My first pair of Brooks and I Love these shoes. The were perfect right out of the box. I have a flat foot and need both stability and a larger toe box. This shoe has both. I replaced a discontinued Mizuno wave nervina. This shoe is also beautiful! I like it so much I am ordering another pair!

This is my 2nd review of this shoe, different sizes. Recommend going half size up! GTS is a lifesaver of a shoe for pronators! But GTS model is smaller in toe box and overall length the past few years. I wear a 7 1/2 med and decided 8 is definitely best in this model. Comfort and control perfect, shoe light and flexible, the print on this one looks like newsprint and is so cool! GTS models seem to sell out fast and if you love New York, you will want this shoe! Zappos customer service the best!

Love the color and the narrow size, but decided I need to go a half size up, so will do that.

I inherited my mom's big clown feet. Usually I wear an 11 but got a 12 in this pair.
They feel great and my feet don't look huge. Would have preferred different color choices, but it fits and that's what really matters.

I think I must have a higher arch than I used to as these did not fit like my previous pairs of Adrenaline's. Loved the color and obviously good support. I'll wait for the 18's I guess!

My feet are happy once again! I have been wearing Brooks Defyance for many years, but since their latest version (#9) came out I have been on the hunt for something that would give me the same comfort and stability as previous versions. The Adrenaline GTS 17 is that shoe. It has good stability which helps guide my feet while running. While it is not as "cushy" as the Ghost 9 or Defyance 8 it is still comfortable and has a great arch support. I will be buying several more of these shoes before Brooks goes and messes with another good thing. I typically wear a size 9M but order 1/2 size larger in Brooks.
