As somebody with very FLAT feet, I would like even more support than this shoe provides, but it is OK and I will probably keep it. It runs a tad short, but half size longer would be too long.

Loyal Adrenaline wearer since 2005 and these are just too ugly. I don’t like any of the color options and my local store always encourages that the color doesn’t matter but I just can’t, even with the better selection here. I’m going to risk keeping the Brooks Launch because they are also wide width, lightweight and a better style.

I always wear an 8 but these are to small for my feet. I'm going to try an 8.5 to see if that will work. Not crazy about the color or the style. The 18's are much more stylish than the 19's. I almost thought about going with Asics due to the look. They look bulky and aren't attractive at all. Since I didn't get an opportunity to wear them due to them being to small, I can't address their comfort level.

They hurt my feet and I wore them for less than an hour...and I was sitting for most of the hour. I’m disappointed.

Fit very nice. Felt like a lot of support and not too heavy. They also aren’t super lightweight either. Only used them inside so far. Looking forward to using them on the road in the spring.

These are very comfortable and came at right time when I am having some issues, new to me, of over pronation on my left foot. I wear custom orthotics and they fit well in these. They run a little large but I have wide foot and the next half size lower was too narrow, even in the wide width. Really good for workouts at gym, fitness center which I have to do daily, and general everyday wear.

I first bought the GTS 17 Nov 2017 and LOVED them for the comfort, stability and cool design. I play pickleball inside on hardwood floors and outside on tennis courts 4-6 days a week 2-3 hours at a time. They were great and stood up to the abuse for about 9 months. Now the tread is shot and it was time to replace them. The GTS 19 seem fairly close in design and are comfortable but don’t fit as well as my GTS 17’s did right out of the box; however, I have only worn them for a week now.

This is my first pair of Brooks and so far, they’re great. I’m not a runner anymore but needed a good pair of shoes with great arch support for a ruptured Plantar Fascia and these have not disappointed. My feet are happy so I’m happy. I’d definitely buy them again

I’ve been wearing these for about a week now and I really like them. This is my first pair of Brooks as I usually wear ASICS. But, after reading the other positive reviews I purchased these. I went a half size up just to ensure there was enough room in the toe box for walking and running. The width feels great. I don’t have wide or narrow feet so these hug my feet just right. The only minor thing I’ve noticed is the arch support is a little light, not enough to make me dislike the shoe though. Overall great purchase.

The 11 wide was just a bit short, but the 11.5 wide fit perfectly.

Like the look of this shoe. Looks better in person too. Feels great to walk in as well. I ordered the 10.5 2A.which is the perfect shoe athletic size for me as a rule. Great support for overpronation. These babies are narrow enough and long enough. But... I have the big toe up turned dilemma. While this is hereditary and not much of a problem until you try to buy shoes. The toe box is of the right width but a tiny bit low ceiling for an upturned big toe or Hallux Hammer Toe. If the toe box is too low ceilinged, I will rub a hole with my big toe right through the shoe. But otherwise it is a great shoe....

The shoe fits my true shoe size, which is 11, and is much cushier and provides more comfort than the GTS 18 model, especially in the toe box. I am returning it because the black fabric on the black sole just looks to boxy on my foot. Will reorder in the two-tone style (lighter sole) as that appears to have a better visual look.

I have been a fan of Brooks since 2001, but after wearing out my Transcend 4, I haven't been able to find a pair that fits my feet since and have begun looking at other brands. These at first felt great, but after wearing them around the house for a few hours, my feet were aching and tired. I think it was due to difference in cushioning from heel to ball of foot. Ball of foot cushioning felt flat. I am not a runner, but walk a lot and am on my feet a lot. If you are a runner, this may not be noticed as much. Also, my toes felt squished after a bit of time, so the toe box didn't have enough room for me. These were returned reluctantly because at first they seemed great.

Ordered half size up and should have gone a full size up. Felt like thy had good support and would be comfortable in the correct size. The color options weren’t the best compared to other styles in this same brand. Ended up returning and going with the Ghosts.

I have to have D width and these Brooks Adrenalines are just right in width for me. Cushioning is excellent but I just wish it were a little less of a heel to toe drop. Otherwise good shoes.

I love the colors! I usually wear and 8 but ordered up a half size (8.5) I’m glad I did because these run small. I’ve noticed with most athletic shoes anymore they run small? These shoes have excellent cushion for running and can’t wait to break them in! Overall I would recommend these shoes!

These are very cushy.. bouncy when you walk. I do find that they lack a little support in the heels, meaning they aren’t very solid. If they could mix the 17’s and 19’s together, they’d be perfect. The laces need to be longer also. I have a skinny ankle/heel and would like to use the top lace hole, but there isn’t much extra lace. I think these might run a half size big. They work for me though. I ordered the blue/turquoise color and really like it.

Felt comfortable out of the box. Foot bed feels a bit hard after walking around a while. Easy to remedy with an insert. Happy enough with them.

Very comfortable. I ordered 1/2 size larger in sport shoes and that was perfect. There is still room to insert an orthotic if I need to. My feet felt well supported in these shoes.

I was yearly getting the Adrenaline ASR model for trail running which offered better weather proofing options and material, slightly different treads. I was upset to see this model no longer being an option from Brooks this year and am still hoping they bring that model back. Overall comfort is for sure very good, more cushion than before. I am already getting wet toes in just walking on pavement right after a rain storm, a few rocks stuck in treads, and also the shoe strings may seem like a minor thing, but previous ASR's shoestrings were more durable. Wet shoe getting back in my car slipped off the brakes so I know there is a tread difference. Never had that before. Overall I'm satisfied with the shoe and comfort. For some reason it does feel like less arch support than my ASR models of the past, but I'm happy with my running experience so far in these. I still may start looking at other brands now that offer a true trail running shoe even after being a loyal Brooks fan for many years if I can't deal with the wet toe thing now. They are comfortable and my knee problem, tarsal tunnel, and plantar fasciitis have not been aggravated yet. I would still like Brooks to bring back something more suited for a rugged trail.

This my second pair of Adrenaline GTS 19's .I find Brooks to be comfortable and supportive.I try to walk 5 miles per day ,I was surprised that the fabric around the toe started to fray so soon also the sole is also wearing .I found it's easy to slip when walking or running this is very disappointing .

I was very disappointed with this pair of Brooks. I've had them for 3 months and there's already a hole from my big toe. At first they seemed very supportive, but now the support seems to have broken down. I've had other Brooks that I loved and they lasted a lot longer. Personally, I would like to see a stronger material around the front of the toe box.

I have used other Adrenalines that last a lot longer. I got two pairs of the 19s and the two pairs Lasted as long as one pair of any of the other models. The support seems to breakdown quicker. I am not sure if I should try the 20s or just find another shoes. The 18s were so good!
