I loved this show but it pressed on my Achilles and rubbed below my ankle. I was afraid they would be uncomfortable after a few minutes of wear so I returned.

I did not think that the Revel 2 was as comfortable as the original Revel. I have two of those. I wear them every day because of a problem with one of my feet. I walk about three miles every morning for exercise and alternate the three pairs of shoe. The 2 just don't feel as comfortable when I have finished my walk or had them on for a long period of time.

I really like them but I find they still hurt my feet :( I think I do better with the Adrenalines. That will be the next pair i get.

These are my first pair of Brooks. They are definitely comfortable. However, they are already coming apart, literally at the seams! I walk daily, but can't imagine they can't keep up with me, or that's it's the reason they're coming apart. Very disappointed.

This was my first pair of Brooks running shoes. I don't know what I expected but they are okay. I wanted something with a little more cushion and lift off from heel strike, which I can say these don't provide. I normally wear a size 6 shoe, got a 7 in these. Plenty of room, my feet feel comfortable and protected. Gonna see how they do and decide if I want to switch.

I expected these shoes to be more padded; to provide more spring during my runs. Unfortunately this was not the case. They provide support, but it's meager.

I didn't like the revel 2's. Too hard and hurt my feet just wearing them in the house! If your looking for comfort on long walks get the Revel 3's! They are great!

I have worn the Pure Flow 6 and 7, love both as they feel like they were made for my foot. Since I haven't seen an 8 come out, I decided to try something else. No, didn't like them at all. Please continue to make the 7 or come out with an 8. Also would like to mention I wear my shoes nearly all the time not just to work out, so at 74 I really don't like the wild color combination. That is another reason I have enjoyed my Pure Flows!

This shoe is true to size. It is very comfortable and light in weight. There is plenty of support around the arch,especially when tightening the laces. I wish there was more cushioning in the insole.I would give it four out of five stars.

I’m not a pink person but thought this little bit of pink would be ok. But that, coupled with the fact I didn’t like the crocheted look of the fabric, led me to returning them. I got the Glycerine style instead and I like them much better. Both styles are very comfortable.

I have a new pair of Ghost 11 that I love. Needed another pair and decided to go with a less expensive Brooks. Unfortunately, narrower on my foot and my toe touches the end. Do not have this problem with my same size Ghost 11. So will return. Love the purple color and the fabric exterior tho.

These fit well! The only reason I returned them is, as I’m a girl, they looked a little too much like “dad shoes” so I decided to return them! They were comfortable though! I’m going to be trying another pair of Brooks Sneakers, for sure!!

These shoes did not have enough cushioning for me. Not as comfortable as the Brooks Glycerin or the Brooks Ghost..

I’m very disappointed with the new model of Revel. Does not feel as comfortable or as supportive for my flat, pronating feet. In my opinion, Revel II is not an improvement of the original model.

I read that most people order running shoes larger than their true size. I ordered these 1/2 size up and there was just too much room in the toe box. I think it may have been because this model is constructed of a knit material. I just felt like I was sliding side to side with any lateral movement. They would probably be great for straight running. Just order your true size!

This is a very attractive shoe & it’s quite comfortable for casual walking. Too firm for running. Also my heel moves side to side because of the looseness. I’ll keep them because they’ll be good for traveling & “dressy” comfort.

Not as supportive or cushioned as I was hoping for. I much more prefer ghost line. I’ll add it in the mix for shorter runs but definitely not for runs more than 4-5 miles.

Fit was too short in the toe box. Exchanged for the same size to Brooks Cloud and these shoes fit just right.

Reviewed at Brooks Running
This was my first ever pair of brooks and let me say this might also be my last pair. The bottom of the shoes are simply TOO hard. I tried running on them on the pavement and I could feel every step either on my shin or my knees, I hate to say these shoes caused the pain, but I've never experienced that with Nike. I haven't try them on my trail runs, maybe they're better for the trail, but if you live in the city and intend on running mostly on pavement, I would stay away from these.

The shoe is comfortable and looks great but my daughter has only been wearing them for a month and the material is already unraveling on the sides and holes are forming.

The Revel 2 shoes are very comfortable and one of the best tennis shoes for running/walking that I have tried. HOWEVER, after about 1-2 weeks of wear (walking/running 3-4x per week), the top part around the ankle started peeling and the cushioning eventually coming out. There is NO rubbing with shoe and foot in this area so I don't know why it's happening. I contacted customer service and they sent me the same pair of shoes and they did the same thing!!!

Brooks has been my go to brand. I loved the women's Heritage Vanguard. I had hoped the Ravel 2 would fit as well. Unfortunately it didn't. I am a standard 6.5M and all my Brooks are this size. However I found the Ravel 2 to be large on me and very wide. Also the arch hit me in the wrong place. I was disappointed because the shoe is good looking and light. I returned them.

The Revel 1 was one of my all time favorite running shoes. These felt quite different-- not bad, but not as cushy, lighter and stiffer. Fit was good though, and the colors (orange, black and white) looked great. I ran in them for two weeks, and after the first few runs the front left shoe started to squeak. It felt like there was a pebble embedded in the treads, but no pebble. Some kind of defect in the plastic or foam. I'm returning and will try a different model.
