I have always worn Saucony brand sneakers for running. Based on the reviews, I wanted to try a Brooks shoe. Maybe I didn’t get the right style for my flat foot, but it was not comfortable out of the box. I find that styles that provide a wider toe box work best for me. This shoe had great reviews, but unfortunately it didn’t work for me.

I keep tripping over these shoes. I’m used to it now after walking in them for months, but it was very annoying at first. I definitely won’t be buying them again. They’re okay. Not that great.

This was my first pair of Adrenaline shoes. I need Stability shoes that are cushioned, and I was happy in the past with the Addictions. These shoes had problems. The tongue was too thin (little padding) and too short. They were also too low in the heel, and overall weren't as comfortable as I like. They were true to size (I wear 11.5 and Medium width)..perhaps the problem was that I have a high arch, and this shoe may not be compatible with my arches. Disappointed. Especially because they are very attractive. I think I'm going to try a Wide width and see if that extra roominess makes them more comfortable.

This was my first experience with Brooks. They're one of very few that have all black shoes without the white at the bottom. I have wide feet and they did have a break-in period. Even still, they were a smidge snug in the toe box. Other than that, they were great.

I really wanted to like the shoes. I liked the appearance and the cushioning of the shoes. Unfortunately, they were just a little bit too wide in the forefoot for me. I started having a lot of arch pain because I had too much movement.

Disappointed with 19s. I bought 18s til there were no more. Have run in Brooks for years. My feet don't change so why change the sneaker? If you want to change the style and work on the knees then make another model. Toe box is smaller with the updated style. Now my toes are bothering me and they never have. Way more shoe in the back compared to front. Sigh. Now what to do.

The fit is good but this particular gray color just looks too old and drab. When I walk by them I keep thinking my dad left his shoes here. Will probably return.

These shoes just don't have the support they had last model year. They are fine, but switching between my old pair of 2018's and these, I can see the difference in my pronation using a mirror in front of my treadmill. I've run just over 50 miles in these and the difference in support is night and day.

After wearing out 2 of the GTS 18, I had some very achy feet. Figured it was time for a new pair and ordered the 19's. They hurt my feet just as much as my worn out 18's. Just too hard, too much support or something. Returned and ordered the ghosts instead.

Nowhere near enough support for me. Brooks keeps making each new generation of shoe softer and less structured. I need more support than that.

I am not a fan of the mesh athletic shoes that are so popular right now. For my feet that overpronate, they do not have enough support. I used to love Brooks Adrenaline but had to switch after the disastrous GTS 18. These GTS 19's are much more supportive and comfortable than the 18's, but with my flat feet I need more structure. I chose the SAS Tour Mesh instead. It has enough leather around the arch area to provide good support along with my custom orthotics. Thanks, Zappos, for your generous shipping & return policy!!!

The shoe is very cushioned on the bottom. I felt like I was walking on a mattress! However, the shoe seemed to run small for an 8.5. Also because of the thick sole, it didn't seem as flexible as other shoes with a less thick sole.

At first, these Brooks Adrenaline GTS 19 felt odd on my feet. I have wide feet and I bought the size I've always been (6 1/2) with a wide width. I think I should have ordered 1/2 size larger. They feel tight on my feet. I really need to find a pair of sneakers that don't hurt my feet when doing Step Aerobics classes - which is what I need most of the support for. Most sneakers make one or both of my feet feel numb until I have worn them for 2-3 months. These don't make my feet numb but my feet hurt after a 1 hour step aerobics class. Does anyone have any suggestions for this type of workout?

I have worn the GTS in the past GTS 15, 16 and 17. The 19 runs narrow in the heel - causing heel pain - and the toe are is also narrow. I will be on the search for a different shoe to walk and jog in.

Very disappointed. The support is lacking from the Addiction that I am used to. They feel big and floppy on me and I have tripped over my own feet several times. Giving them away and going back to the Addiction.

I wore Adrenaline 18's and loved them but stupidly wore them 1/2 size smaller than I should have. I thought moving up to my correct size would make them even better, but my toes were constantly squashed from not enough depth in the toe box. It may just be me because I have feet problems. Was disappointed because I love the cushiony support of Brooks shoes and the pronation help with the Adrenaline in particular.

I will begin by disclosing that my feet are narrow and low-volume. I wear a 9 1/2 normally, and a 10 in running shoes. Last year's pair of Brooks Adrenalines fit me perfectly, but are absolutely falling apart a year later. I don't run, but walk a lot and wear them to the gym as well. This pair fits well in the heel and the instep, but the toe box is much too roomy, especially for a narrow. For perspective, last year, my Adrenalines were a medium and while the toe box was certainly roomy, it wasn't as roomy as the narrow this year. Clearly, Brooks has changed their design of these shoes, and I will be returning them. Also, as a side note, the color is rather obnoxious--bright purple and orange--but if they fit, I would have kept them.

I ended up buying New Balance 860v9 and they fit like gloves!

What the description fails to tell you is that the "print" is CAMOUFLAGE -- not my style, returned these. I think these fit better than the Adrenaline 18- more overall footbed cushioning.

I put moderate arch because there is a little, but very little. The whole sole of the shoe is very cheap looking! It doesn't look much different than what I would expect to find on a pair of shoes at Payless. It is so far removed from the Brooks quality I have had over the past twenty five years. I guarantee you I will never spend another $130 for a pair of your shoes. You should be ashamed.

I've worn Saucony's for several years and wanted to try out Brooks because of all the fans. Bought these because of all the great reviews, but they didn't support my flat feet at all. After trying them out, my heel ached in a way it doesn't even with my oldest shoes. I think they're good shoes, just not for overpronators. After I tried these Brooks and a pair of Hoka One Ones, I went online and bought an older model of Sauconys and they're definitely the right combo of support and comfort for me. Sauconys are just so ugly! lol But comfort and support will triumph every time for me. Thanks, Zappos, for making the return process easy for hard-to-fit people like me.
