Customer Reviews Brooks Adrenaline GTS 19

Super impressed with the new Adrenaline. It used to be my least favorite in the Brooks lineup because it always felt so hard and stiff. This new Adrenaline is between the Ghost and Glycerin and I really like the black/white color option. I have a very medium width foot and these fit perfect in my normal size.

I have worn Adrenalines for years. This time the sole seems just a tad squishier...which I don't hate, but like the more firm sole a bit better for my foot comfort. The grey color looks great in person-sort of silvery.

First, I don't like shoes. If the world was a safer place to go barefoot, I would all the time. Unfortunately, I live and work in the real world with sidewalks, dirt, all kinds of germs, and other nasty stuff like spills, broken glass, and trash, so I must wear shoes. These are pretty good for shoes, okay worthy of 4 stars. Decent arch support so I have no pain and because I buy a half size larger than my foot, I have plenty of toe room. As an added bonus, they come in all black making them great for work. I'm 64 and comfort is way more important to me than style, but these are cute-ish and look okay with my work slacks. I'll be buying another pair so I can rotate because I wear these every day.

I've worn Adrenalines for years. This 19 is the BEST yet. LOVE the toe box. It is enough wider so that I don't have to order the wide for my wide feet! The problem for me is these COLORS. Have never seen such a terrible color choice. The " grays" that are actually white and black threads woven together are just awful. They look more white. Someone at Brooks needs to work on the color choices. I even ordered a Cascadia just for the great color combo but the FIT and support cannot compare to the Adrenaline. Too bad for those of us who love great color combos.

I wear these with orthotics and they are very comfy. Stability is good so far. True to size. I use these for everyday use as.

Looked at 'running shoe' sites to find shoes for my problem feet and these kept being recommended. I ordered the grey/black/purple, and the L shoe in my normal size 10 1/2 felt a 1/2 size small (I already 1/2 size up for running shoes). So I ordered an 11- but I switched colors to the black orange purple- and they were too big! Thankfully I know how these things go and I ordered a 10 1/2 at the same time as the 11 and lo and behold they fit. So I guess I'd say the first color combo runs small. Also, I'd say if you like something enough keep ordering until the size is right.

Fit was great, the color on the other hand was too flashy for my taste

I ordered two shoes so I could try the difference. These, Adreniline GTS 19, are lighter weight shoes which was appealing. They are very comfortable on my very wide high instep feet. However, there was no sense of arch support for me. Not that it was bad, but it just was empty in my arch. And after walking a bit I noticed that I felt I was walking down hill even though it was level. The other pair was the Addiction 13. They are heavier and stiffer. I ended up with these because in the gym, these held my feet firmly in place.

These shoes are comfortable but feel too big when I wear them. Recommending downsizing.

I have to wonder if Brooks uses different vendors to make different color shoes? I have the navy 19's and they fit perfect, but this color doesn't seem to fit as well. The same thing that I noticed with the adrenaline 17's. Some colors fit really good and others were tight in the toe box or felt different and not as comfortable. That is what happened with this color. Seems too wide in the toe and doesn't fit as well as the navy pair that I got in March. I would suggest that if you get one color and don't like the fit, try a different color - not a different size. Some things are just beyond explanation and you just have to go with what works. I kept this color/pair of shoes, but will not wear them as much as the earlier purchased pair, maybe in the fall with heavier socks.

Very good fit. I was apprehensive as I've tried other Brooks sneakers with shorter fits. These shoes are light as a feather.

Actually after sizing up a half size (usually true 7.5) so I tried a size 8. Felt fine, fairly cushy, all was fine until I went for a walk. Not enough Cush for the ball of my foot, my toes starting aching as well, tingling like there wasn't enough room. If I didn't want a shoe for walking (possibly standing only) it was fairly comfy.

The Adrenaline GTS 18 and 19 seem smaller than previous years. My normal size is an 8, but I’m running shoes I’ve always been an 8.5. But the past two years I’ve had to upsize to a 9.

These sneakers fit true to size and width. The toe box had plenty of room. I wished I could have laced them for better ankle support.

I am still conflicted about this shoe. I've worn the Adrenaline GTS for years.... the 19 is different; wider in the toe box and in the heel. I feel as though it does not have the same amount of arch support. Overall I would give it 3.5 stars.

True to size, I like the style, I feel like I’m walking on memory foam, i don’t want to take them off.

I've been wearing the Brooks Ariel for 5+ years now, but I didn't like the changes to the 2016 version, and found that the most current version felt just like the 2016 version, so I opted to try the Adrenaline GTS 19 instead, seeing that it was also recommended for overpronation (bonus: it's also cheaper). The shoe looks much more attractive on than the Ariel does--slimmer profile and not so bulky--but it still feels like it has nice arch support and the right structure to help prevent overpronation; it has a comfortably snug fit too, whereas my later version Ariels always felt loose, no matter how I laced them. I'd been wearing a 9.5W in the Ariel, based on reviews about it running a little small (I usually wear a 9 in shoes, and often get a wide if the shoe is not leather), but I chose to try a 9 regular in the Adrenaline and it's fine--I could probably have gotten away with a 9.5 and had a little more wiggle room, but the 9 is comfortable. I walk a lot--I'm not a runner--and these are comfortable for walking. I got the Blue/Aqua/Ebony color and it's really fun and bright, but still easy to pair with all of my different color workout tops and my black workout bottoms; I love that there are so many color options and not just stereotypical White/Grey/Pink.

I returned Saucony Pro grid that was impossible to fit into and went back to the old standard, Brooks. I had Brooks Adrenalin before but it was a heavy clophopper and with neuropathy that did not work so well. I took a chance on Adrenalin GTS 19 and started out with a double wide EE and a 10.5 for extra toe box room as my feet swell and my flat feet is a big problem as I age. I was surprised that it fit perfectly. I will see how it goes when I put in my orthotics. But I did try them with socks. Right now to wear is futile with 99% humidity and weather in TN unpredictable. I wear Keen sandals for support in summer. Thank you Brooks, for giving us the option of EE width. The only color that stood out was the black with purple and coral. I can live with that.

These are the perfect sneaker, looks wise. Exactly what I was looking for. They had the right amount of stabilization, I could get my orthotics in them and they made my feet look nice. Unfortunately, they did not have a lot of cushioning. My previous sneaker (ASICS Nimbus Gel 17) were like slippers from day one. These were on the hard side and they didn’t seem to have a lot of spring in the step. Was so disappointed because they are a beautiful white and silver shoe. Not many shoes come in white anymore. (Hint to manufacturers- make at least one white version of each model! I hate the neon colors and the crazy color combinations.)

I’ve had Brooks shoes before with no problem but when I put these on after a short time the top of my foot hurt and the bottom of my feet felt like they were on fire. They are comfortable initially but after a short while my feet just hurt. Sadly I’m returning, but they are cute.

It’s frustrating that they change this shoe every year. The 2017’s were my favorite, but these are ok, but they feel wide, too wide in the toe box for me.

First time with this shoe, usually buy brooks revel. This shoe has a much larger sole. It is very comfortable when jogging but strangely feels kind of hard when walking. Overall, I like it.

I loved how these felt for my body. It kept my knees stable and felt so good. Unfortunately, the heels gave me blisters. I wore them for a few weeks thinking I could break them in, but the blisters never subsided.

I couldn't tell whether it was the width or the length, or maybe it was both, but either way, the shoe was too tight even though I ordered a pair in my usual size. Had to send back. Otherwise though I could tell it would have been comfortable, had it been true-to-size.

I wanted to like these so much but they were definitely at least a half size too small. I decided to just return and hold off on trying a half size up next time. However, if I decide to buy running shoes again soon I would buy these again but in a larger size.
