I love the pure flow 6! Much improved from it's predecessor. I went up half a size and the fit is great! If you didn't like the pure flow 4 or 5 I would say this shoe is definitely worth giving another shot.

I'm loving these shoes! I wear a 7.5 in regular shoes but usually take an 8 in running shoes and these are no exception. They have some arch support which is perfect for my foot. They are super lightweight and comfortable. I'm also a fan of the look of these-they aren't too clunky like some running shoes can be. I've had them about a week and a half and have worn them for running, walking, and cycling. I'm not sure about durability long term but I'm happy so far.

After trying several different pairs of sneakers for wearing to workout at the gym, these are the ones that won. They are comfortable, supportive, and fit well. But most important to me, they are breathable and keep my feet cool (I hate having hot feet!) The style is nice too!

LOVE the way these look, but sadly, they don't provide enough support for someone with Plantar Fasciitis. Very bummed, because they are a rare running shoe that is not 3 or 4 super ugly colors. I am returning them, with a heavy heart.

I decided to give PureFlow another try after a couple years of ill fitting Brooks shoes. These are AMAZING -- like running on clouds! I am so happy with this purchase and the colors are very cool, too. I hope they continue on this streak of fantastic fitting shoes!

My feet are so happy! This is my third pair of pureflow shoes, and they have great support and cushioning. Great for running form and for working on my feet all day. I love the grey/blue color too, not too flashy/neon like most running shoes.

Oh, Brooks . . . you never fail to make my feet happy!! My feet slipped into these shoes as if the shoes had been custom-made for me. I typically wear a wide width, but these seem just fine--though I haven't tried them with socks. There are no weird plastic parts or any other pieces that interfere with toes or sides of feet. These shoes are just super comfy! Now, I bought them for walking in Europe rather than running, so I can't testify to how they work as running shoes. I'll try to update the review after my trip, but I have high expectations for these beauties!

Love these shoes! I had another pair of Brooks GTS in a size 8 before, and they were not comfortable. I tried on the shoe in an 8 1/2 but it was way too big. The 8 turned out to be too small, and the 8 1/2 would have been too large. The 8 in the PureFlow6 is "just right."

I LOVE Brooks!!! I was originally directed to this brand within a running store and am so thankful for the recommendation, I don't think I'll ever purchase another brand. They are soooo comfortable. I had the Glycerin style previously but wanted something a less bulky and these do the job. I also love that these are offered in neutral shades. I bought these a 1/2 size up from my normal street size.

Brooks Pure Flow shoes are my absolute favorite!! I've tried to branch out and give other brands of athletic shoes a try, however, none ever measure up to Brooks. They're well worth the money. This is actually my 2nd pair of the Pure Flow 6's because I like some of the newer colors. Keep it up Brooks! I recommend these shoes to anybody looking for stylish, comfortable, supportive, and lightweight athletic shoes.

I love the Pure Flow 6! The peacock color was really pretty. The shoes are really comfortable right out of the box. And guess what? I'm currently still wearing my old Pure Flow 3 sneakers.
One of the Pure Flow 6 sneakers was ripped in the back- I would have kept them if I could have repaired it myself but they are too pricey to take a chance. The only reason I didn't reorder another pair is I'm cheap when buying shoes for myself. If it was anyone else in the family the new pair would be on the way. I will break down and get myself a pair, nothing seems to work for me except Brooks.

Best shoe EVER! My freaky feet love these shoes. Roomy toe box that tapers to a very comfortable heel. You won't be sorry, go ahead and order!

I am like the Princess and the Pea when it comes to shoes - deeply sensitive to any discomfort. I have waited a while to write this review to make sure my initial impressions endured, and they have: these shoes are very, very comfortable!
I usually wind up with a blistered heel and/or the toe area is too tight, but these shoes were just right practically straight from the box. I have worn them for a couple of months now, and they are still very comfortable. I did add a "cloud" liner on top of the original insole since I prefer that texture, but no modifications are truly needed.
I should mention that I ordered these in a size 7.5 when usually I am a 7, and I am glad I did not go any smaller than 7.5. I probably could have even ordered a size 8 if I wanted that extra bit of space, but the 7.5 was fine. So order at least a half size up, or even a full size up if you want that more spacious feeling.

I have bought these same shoes every time a new one is released and these are by far my favorite. Perfect for running.

Great sneaker, lots of cushioning but be aware, they run small in length. I am always either a 7 or 7.5 but the 7.5 was way too small. Went up to the 8 and it's a perfect fit. Glad to have free returns with Zappos!

LOVE the purple peacock design, so cool! These are more like the older Flow styles (like the 3 and 4 models.) WAY better than the Flow 5's. Feels like more support and cushioning. Plenty of room for toe splay and comfort in the front of the shoe. The 7.5 was a tick tight, and the 8 seems a smidge big but went with that so I don't possibly rub my big toe in the 7.5 Good arch support.

LOVE LOVE LOVE these! However I am unsure on arch support as I have to put SuperFeet in all my shoes. Beautiful grey color that goes with anything I wear.

This is one good looking shoe. I've always loved brooks running shoes, but these take comfort to a completely new level. They're lightweight and will cushioned. Very nice shoes.

I love these shoes. Normally I wear an 8 1/2 but after reading the reviews on size I got a nine and they are perfect fit. I run about 10 miles a week so not exactly training for a marathon but have plantar fasciitis and desperately needed a shoe that made running more comfortable and these do the trick. I find the toebox to be very roomy and i have wide feet. Lightweight, bouncy and very cute.

This was my first pair of Brooks. I need a wide toe box and have been wearing mens shoes for years now, but really liked this pattern on these shoes. These are marvelous! A nice wide toes box, my toes are not cramped at all! I finally just might be able to wear women shoes again!

These might be the Brooks shoes I've ever run in. I love low-drop shoes but prefer some cushion. Although my feet are a pretty average width, they swell when I run, so the test is always when I get to about mile five. So far, so good, no pinching or discomfort of any kind! I love putting Brooks shoes on, they always feel like slippers when I first put them on, but these also tolerated the impact of running really nicely. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do on longer runs!
