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.

These are very low cut around the ankle, consequently they are do not fit snug enough for a narrow heel.

I used to be a loyal Asics Gel Kayano girl. Anytime I needed new running shoes, I'd just order the newest Kayano. The last few in that series haven't been up to snuff though. The toe box was too small and there just wasn't as much overall support as in the past.
I did a little research and went with the Brooks - fantastic switch. These shoes have plenty of room in the toe box and offer great support. And as a bonus, they are sleeker and more attractive than my old Asics, making it a good switch all the way around.
I'd highly recommend. These ran very true to size for me.

Love these shoes. I wore Brooks Dyad 8 prior to these and these are even better for EE width and support plus much more stylish. Im ordering a 2nd pair.

Very comfortable shoe. I have wide feet so the roomy toe box is great. I usually wear Asics and these seem to fit the same. I would say true to size.

Great support, fits just like my other brooks running shoes. I bought the grey-on-grey hoping for a subtle, neutral look. The fabric is more textured. With the right outfit it could look kinda futuristic, but with my big feet and neutral palate it just looked orthopedic.

This is my second pair of Brooks and I'm spoiled for any other shoe. I walk 3 to 4 miles everyday and these are a dream to walk in. Comfort is great whether I walk on cement or blacktop or dirt - it's all good! If you're looking for a good walking/running shoe you've gotta try this one. Two thumbs up from me.

I work 12 hour shifts in a hospital. I find these shoes to be the most comfortable for my size 12 feet! This is my 3rd pair. They hold up well, and my feet never hurt after a 12 hour shift when I wear these shoes.

This is my third pair of Brooks, and have loved them all. I have the Adrenaline GTS 12 and the Glycerin 14. I usually wear a size 8 in dress / casual shoes but order 8 1/2 in athletic shoes.

Needed the width on Brooks without going to the mens (since the styles are not so great this year:(), but it's too loose. Even with the insole and a custom made one worn at the same time. I am a 9 1/2 wide normally. It was a good deal wider than the mens.
Too bad. Great shoes though

Ok.Ok.OK! Back in the day I gave the GTS 12 a shot and hated them. After years of wearing Salomans (which are awesome) I decided to try this new model. I loved the dark navy. I usually wear a 7 so I ordered a 7.5 due to the reviews. They fit great. Boldly I ran 21 miles right out of the box. I love these! Great cushion! Lightweight. I also ordered my usual Saloman Sense Pro (which are lighter than the GTS). Now I own to great pairs of shoes!

If you are already in the Brooks Adrenaline, these are pretty much the same. I was "prescribed" version 11 of this shoe after a fitting with a physical therapist and have worn the latest versions ever since. This is a very supportive running shoe for over pronators. This is the first version that I ever actually liked the style of, so it's a big improvement. I wear an 8.5 in regular shoes, and I wear these a full size up to account for foot expansion on distance runs.

First of all, I can't say enough about Zappos customer service in helping me find this show. My podiatrist recommends this shoe for my arch support needs and I couldn't be happier.

I broke my ankle three months ago and required ORIF surgery. Since then, I am only able to wear athletic shoes. New Balance were my go-to previously. My New Balance were not cutting it anymore. I tried various brands trying to find a shoe that I could walk comfortable in and would help with my uneven gait due to the surgery. Since discovering Brooks, I can walk without a limp for the first time in months. The stability they provide is amazing. I don't need to change the insoles which had been a necessity in all the previous shoes I tried. I am so impressed with these shoes I ordered more colors.

I get compliments on these shoes every day I wear them! I have a leg brace and these provide the perfect level of support, width and stability. I will buy these again and again!

I work on my feet and have tried many different shoes. I have wide feet and high arches. I am pretty happy with the wide rendition of these shoes. My feet aren't quite as sore at the end of the night with these. I wish there was just a little more arch support and heel cushion and with that I would be completely satisfied. Overall, pretty pleased and I have high standards.
