Love these shoes. I walk/jog 8 miles everyday on the boardwalk. Good stabilizing shoe. Comfortable and supportive, although I do use additional light orthotics. The cuff does not rub and wear like other styles. The bottoms wear out and crack after 2- 3 months.

These feel great. I am just recovering from peroneal tendon surgery and I have chronic plantar fasciitis. These are the only shoes I want to wear.

Best out there. This is my second pair! The last pair I trained for and ran a half marathon. Only bought the second pair for another color!

Fit is very comfortable, a bit more room in the toe area than expected

I really like these shoes. What caught my eye was the contrast in materials from the inner part of the foot to the outside. They feel great. I only wore them once with the original insoles. I always change my insoles to ones for plantar fasciitis so I can’t say much about the Forbes but they were comfortable for the few hours I wore them. They are super light so after being on my feet for 12 hours I can hit the gym and run in them as well. They are also airy and my feet don’t get hot like they do in most shoes. Would buy the Bedlams again.

True to size but toe box is a bit big for a narrow foot

This is the best shoe for me. I have tried numerous brands and shoes and this by far is the best. I don't have knee pain anymore and it helps with my pronation. It's a very comfortable shoe too!

My husband and I LOVE this shoe. Its comfortable and has lots of support. The guide rails assist my husband's pronation problems and even though I don't have those issues, the stability and cushion help with my plantar fasciitis and shin splints. This is a great shoe.

This is my first pair of Brooks and I only bought them to humor my husband. We walked 7+ miles/day at Disney and I expected to have screaming feet but I did not thanks to these shoes. They aren't all squishy and air foam like some brands promote, but they are comfortable, durable, supportive and great quality. My choice is Brooks from here on!

The best shoe for me! I had a four year bout with PF and this is the only shoe I can wear. Just ordered my 7th pair. I run and do Camp Gladiator in them.

My feet over-pronate pretty badly and these shoes have been the most comfortable shoes I've had in years. No knee pain or shin pain and they look good too.

These are very lightweight but structured and supportive Not very cushiony so they are very springy. I like to alternate between knees and my glycerins to make sure I get enough cushiony softness on my heels. I think these are super high-quality and every time I put them on I love them even more! For the record I generally cycle through an intermediate half marathon training schedule a couple times a year to train for spartan beast races.

LOVE these shoes. Have several foot issues and major problem with my one ankle after car accident. The comfortable stability is awesome! As I look down at my feet when walking, I can see how stable my stride is, and that helps my ankle to stay in line and not overpronate. Have gotten several compliments on the look of shoe.

Hands down the best Brooks shoes I've ever worn!! I used to be a fan of the Ravennas but then the style/structure kept changing and they started to hurt my feet. I have a lot of chronic knee and shin injuries so a good supportive shoe is essential!! I decided to switch to the Bedlams in the peak of training for a half marathon and they've been AMAZING!! I plan to stock up on one in every color.

I have been a long time Brooks wearer. The Glycerin was always my go to. When the Bedlam came out I originally ordered them for my husband because of his supination. He loved them so I decided to order a pair for myself. I have a neutral pronation so the stability wasn't an issue but I have issues with Plantar Fasciitis and shin splints and these shoes helped substantially with both. I am now on my 5th pair. I hope they don't change them.

I love running in Brooks. I have high arches and they are one of only two sneakers I can run in comfortably. These offer great stability and support! It’s a plus that they’re cute too. I’ve come to realize not all brooks sneakers are “cute”, but the support is amazing!

I loved the look of these shoes. The shoe is sort of like one piece across the top, so it doesn't tie as tightly as a normal shoe with a tongue. Therefore, it fits bigger than I expected.

I have a wide foot and bed a shoe I can run in as well as workout in the gym with. This shoe has a wide toe box which is a perfect fit for my wide foot. Very comfy
