For me they were 1/2 size smaller than my normal size, had to order 1/2 size larger. Very comfortable and attractive. Not as narrow and many shoes which is great for me. Great shoe

I have run in Nike Pegasus, the entire Asics 2100 series, and Mizuno's Wave Creations and, like most other shoe companies for some unknown reason, these brands decided to narrow the toe box on their shoes. I was pleasantly surprised to put on the Brooks GTS 18's and find them nice and roomy. There's plenty of room in the toe box for my wide feet, yet they are also supportive throughout. The only knock on the shoe for me is a little slipping in the heel while they're breaking in. That resolved after a few hours of wear. The cushioning is apparent without making the shoe squishy feeling. I was so happy with fit and feel of the Brooks Adrenaline that I picked up a pair of the Ghosts a few days later...if you are looking for a cushier ride, go with the Ghosts; if you want more support, the Adrenaline is your shoe. If you need something narrow, pass on either of these.

This place is my second pair. I love them, very comfortable right out of the box, great support, very light and looks cute. I have bunions and plantar fasciitis and my feet feel great in these sneakers!

I purchased these shoes because I stand a lot At work. They are very comfortable. I put my arch support inserts in them and they are perfect for me. I do have a bunion on my right foot and they don’t seem to cause any discomfort.

I am recovering from a broken ankle so I wear a brace. These shoes have made my life easier as I bought the Wide and they fit perfectly with the brace and my other foot feels great too. They are very stunning shoes and so comfortable. I feel like I'm walking on clouds even with the support they give me.

These felt amazing ! I bought them for a trip to Las Vegas/ Grand Canyon. We walked over 10 miles and never felt any pain at all. My husband ordered a pair of Brooks ( the Beast) and he is satisfied as well. I wish they made work shoes that feel this comfortable : )

I purchased the GTS 18 in wide width - they are probably my 6th pair of GTS runners. These are definitely constructed differently to previous versions of the GTS shoe - they feel lighter, and have more mesh in the upper. I have no idea if they will wear as well as the previous models (I tend to put my toe through the upper over time), but so far they are comfortable (just feel a little less weighty than before). So far, I'm very pleased with my purchase.

This shoe is amazing! Like walking on clouds. This is my first pair of Brooks and I can see why they’re so popular. Can’t wait to do all my classes and activities in these! I’ll be wearing them for just about everything, except running. I feel they’ll be great even though I won’t use them for running.

I have problem feet, and these are the first athletic shoe that do not cause me pain. I can walk for hours in these things without an orthotic, whew. Love the purple/black I got. Very vibrant. I can not say enough about these shoes. I workout in them daily and walk at least 3 mi in these with ease. I am usually and 8 in athletic shoes very rarely an 8.5 (nikes mostly). These fit perfectly in an 8. If you are a runner I can see where an 8.5 may be more to your preference. I have a "normal" arch and normal to maybe a little bit wide feet. I do have a bunion on my left and had no issues with the width of these. I also over pronate and these are a dream. Definitely give these a try. I love them.

My daughter normally wears an 8 but got an 8.5 so that as she runs, her foot has space. This was recommended by local shoe fitters that are running experts. She loves this shoe and this is her second pair of them. She stopped having knee pain after she started wearing them. (She also had insoles for them sold by the shoe fitters.)

I’ve been wearing Brooks Adrenaline for years and love them! I love the new colors and as always, the support and cushioning are like no other. Excellent shoe.

This is my third pair of brooks GTS. I’ve had the 13 and 15 as well. Very handsome sneaker in the teal blue tone. Looks great working out and with jeans. I originally bought the 8.5 but felt snug and returned for a size 9. I was on the fence whether these were as nice as my previous pairs of brooks but this week I spent two days of travel (car, train, bus, and plane) wearing them. And they were very comfortable throughout. No rub points or blisters. So I think these are now my favorite pair of sneakers.

I don't ordinarily like or wear sneakers. Saw a woman wearing these and, from behind, I thought she was wearing boots with white and black soles. Bought a pair in size 8. Loved the look but they were too small. Returned them for an 8 1/2. They fit perfectly and look even better than hoped. Just bought a 2nd pair as a backup. LOVE THEM!!

I usually wear an 8.5 and based on reviews, I ordered a 9. They seem to fit better than my adrenaline pair from last year in an 8.5; they were really tight and never stretched out as I thought they would. I’m happy I went a half size bigger. These are great shoes for stability and pronation.

Love the neutral colors & overall look. Have gotten lots of compliments on them. I normally wear a 9 in shoes & the 9.5 fit great. I always have to order half size larger in Brooks. Lightweight but very cushiony. Comfortable right out of box.

Having run in the Brooks Adrenaline for the past seven years, I must admit I was a bit skeptical of the new 2018 design. I run cross country in college and purchased a pair seveal weeks ago. They feel great. I have over 150 miles on my current Adrenaline GTS 18 pair and purchased this pair as a backup. It is the best stability shoe I have ever run in.

I ordered a men's Brooks in a 7 EE (I'm a 60 year old female with a wide foot) but this women's was actually wider. I returned the men's and kept this pair.

These run very small. I am a true 7 in shoes and running sneakers and had to re-order a half size up upon getting these. Once I had the 7.5’s they were awesome. I run about 30 miles per week and these have the support and arch I need as well as the width for my wider foot. Also love that the laces have a lot of stretch to them which helps get the lace-up just right. The grey/black print color looks beautiful in person, it’s basic with a fun twist. Highly recommend!

My first pair of Brooks and they have great support and cushion to help relieve my knee pain so I can exercise and walk comfortably. Love these shoes!

I am an older woman, and these sneakers look very attractive and less flashy than some other colors. I have worn Adrenaline GTS 18 before, but have found recently that my toes are hitting the front of the shoe. I realized that my feet may have become flatter with age, so this time opted for a half size larger which fit perfectly. It was something I did not think about until a read an article suggesting shoe size might change with age. Some others may need to take this into consideration when they complain about the shoe!

Love this shoe! It's more expensive than I would normally pay for a tennis shoe, but the design and comfort makes it worthwhile.
