I wear some 8 & some 8.5. I ordered these in 8.5 & they fit perfectly. Love that they have no lines or stitching that run over my bunions. Not over the top supportive, but easily work for light wear. I had to purchase the navy/teal/mint because it was the only color available in my size. Will purchase a pair in one of the greys if they become available. Very glad to have found these.

I have arthritis in the top of both of my feet, as well as fallen arches. These shoes are very supportive and comfortable. They also look great! I wore them while being a tourist in Chicago and these shoes really supported my feet throughout the day. They are my “go-to” shoes for exercise, too. Love the look of the white/black/gray so much I ordered a second pair! This shoe is highly recommended for people who need good arch support. I found them when I was fitted for shoes at a specialty store.

Brooks

These are great shoes, they are comfortable and fit my foot well. I wish I had tried this Brooks style sooner. Will definitely be buying more.

These are the best running sneakers! They are great quality. I don't love the looks of Brook sneakers, but I can tell the company is working on it. This style is definitely better than ones in the past. I try other brands but always come back to Brooks for running!

I've worn a size 5.5 2E in Brooks running shoes for the past decade. I had to get a size 6 2E in this GTS 18. The GTS 14 was the last of the series that fit my foot which is wide in the front and normal width at the heel and a lower than average ankle bone (the sides of many running shoes are too high and cut into the bone, rubbing the skin off even when covered with socks). I would rate the arch support as more than none but less than moderate. The bottom of the shoe is flat. The insole is soft -- pushing down on arch with a finger flattens it. I use the New Balance stability insole in this shoe which has a firm arch support (hard molded plastic piece so it does not flatten). Firm arch support relieved knee, hip, and back issues years ago and haven't had any issues since using such support. I've logged about 35 miles in this GTS 18 so far and have not had any issues. Would love to see it available in my size in more color options (I got the navy/teal/mint).

I Love these shoes, they're all I buy anymore. I need the stability shoe as i have low arches and over pronate. These are a nice shoe because I get the stability for my arch but don't feel like it's pushing on my arch when I wear them. Love the new black/white color mix patterns the past few years.

I bought these shoes for my daughter. She is an avid walker and runs some too. The other shoes she was wearing were good shoes (New Balance), but she developed blisters on her feet while wearing them. When I read about these shoes, I realized that she pronates when walking or running and needed a shoe that would help stabilize her foot. She loves these shoes and says they are very comfortable. Her feet have finally healed!

These are a perfect for my very wide foot (2EE).
I did have to return the first pair and order 1/2 size larger. They are comfortable and attractive in teal and navy.

After wearing Nike running shoes for walking for many years, I switched to Brooks for better designed shoes with much better support. The Brooks Adrenaline GTS 18 is a solid running shoe requiring no break-in time. I have injured my ankles several times and need trainers with excellent stability. The Adrenalines are incredibly stable while providing a perfect amount of cushion (not too soft). And the shoes are quite stylish. I recommend these Brooks Adrenalines to any woman who walks (or runs) and craves stability with comfort and style.

I just love these shoes. I liked them so much I purchased a second pair. I have a lot of arthritis in my feet and along with the orthotics I wear I feel as though I am walking on clouds. My toes have enough wiggle room and my heel is well supported. I would recommend these shoes for anyone who has problem feet. My only wish was that they had other colors for me to select other than the teal color.

These are the best walking shoes (they are technically running shoes) I've ever owned. So comfortable. I have problems with over pronation and lack of padding on the balls of my feet, so it hurt to walk on cement in regular shoes. These shoes have wonderful padding that isn't too soft but is completely comfortable no matter what surface I'm walking on. My podiatrist also checked the pronation correction and said it was good. That means I don't need to wear orthotics in these shoes. I also want to say that, if you don't know what shoe to choose for your foot issues, just call Zappos and talk to one of their excellent sales reps. They are extremely knowledgeable about which shoes will fill the bill for you.

I really liked this shoe from day one. I use another brand of orthotic, which fit very well inside the shoe. There was not a break in period with this shoe. It was very comfortable from the start. My foot is slightly wide, so those with a narrow foot may have to adjust the laces to accommodate.

I love Brooks shoes! I ordered wide this time and it seems to be so much better. I always seem to blow out my shoes on the side over time. I wore these shoes right out of the box to a 12 hour shift and the next day on a couple mile run. Super comfy!!

These are my go to tennis shoes for walking, exercising and running. Great for flat feet. Excellent arch support for anyone who overpronates, extremely comfortable, and very stylish tennis shoes. I'm a huge fan of this Brooks shoe and give it a solid 5 stars!

I love these shoes. I have been buying the Adrenaline GTS for quite a few years and love them! As with most running shoes I order a half size larger than I wear in most other shoes.

I love these shoes! I’ve worn Brooks for years and although the look has changed the comfort and stability is still there. This color goes with everything. True to size. I’ve not run in these yet just wear them when I strength train. Great shoe!

I am 72 with high arches & wife feet. I wear a 61/2 wide and have been wearing Brooks for several years. I have never been disappointed and the shoes last a long time. The only problem I had this time was choosing which style I wanted. I finally chose the charcoal with black & pink as the markings. These are the best wide shoe I have found and I would recommend them.

These are my third pair. I have a narrow foot, so my options are limited to people with normal width feet. The sole is a bit hard at first, but once it is broken in, it's great. I put power steps in for arch support as the shoe does not provide enough support for me. I run about 50 miles/week and they hold up well.

My feet have several problems including bunions, being flat and wide as well as hammer toes. These shoes take care of all those - comfort as soon as tried on. No problems with touring involving walking several miles. I’ve ordered another pair in brighter colour. These will be used for trip to Europe in September.

I just love the adrenaline series by brooks, they can do no wrong in my book. Of course, always order a size up since they tend to run small but they are so worth the money!
