These were nice a comfortable, but my heel slipped a lot. This is a major problem for my long narrow feet (12 AA). Also, the right foot looked like it tilted inwards a little. The shoe is light because it is mesh.

I GOT DELIVERY TODAY & I ORDERED THIS SNEAKER BECAUSE OF THE FIVE STAR RATING. I AM DISAPOINTED IN THIS SNEAKER BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH CUSHION. I WILL KEEP THIS SNEAKER AND ADD MORE CUSHION. THE MIZUMO WAVE SKY THAT I PURCHASED LAST SPRING IS A BETTER SNEAKER. DON'T KNOW HOW ANYONE CAN SAY THIS IS A GREAT SNEAKER TO RUN/WALK IN?
I'd also recommend:
MIZUMO WAVE SKY IS A GOOD SNEAKER. USE TO BUY ASICS, BUT THEY HAVE ALSO STOP MAKING ENOUGH CUSHION.

They fit perfectly but no support. Loved the color. Wish they had more support. Sending back.

toe box was too narrow..comfortable except in the toe box. I have bunion and I overpronate. Not much support for the overpronating..and the toe rubbed in the 1st minute I put it on. Returning..

The strange thing about this shoe, which is lavender and grey, is that it is the same model, same size as my New navy and aqua Adrenaline 19s, but it is quite a bit wider in the toe box. It is wide enough that to get a snug fit the fabric buckles as I tighten the shoelaces., It also feels slightly longer. Yet it does not seem wide enough to be a EE up from the D I ordered....so probably not mis-marked. This is a real disappointment because I have worn Brooks off and on for about 25 years. I can depend on them. Wahhhh!

I've tried 2 updated models of Brooks so far, and both are less than satisfactory (just tried Ghost before these - sent them back already). These Adrenaline shoes seem quite narrow and "smooshed" in the toebox compared to other Brooks. The top of the toe box was pressing down on the tops of my big toes - the length seemed fine, it's just they seemed very narrow from top to bottom if that makes sense. It also felt a bit narrow width wise to me (I wear 8 medium width). The cushioning was OK, and the arch support seemed fine, but the fit overall was not what I was looking for. I also don't understand why Brooks put only one lace loop on the tongue in these 2019 versions of their shoes.. and the skinny flat laces - terrible idea! Sending these back as well, going to try something else.

I have a high arch and have heard these are great shoes. I tried them but did not work for me. Asics are the only shoe I can run in without arch pain.

I need to replace my well traveled GTS18s and was happy to see the 19s came in Navy. Since I was familiar with the shoe, I only looked at the first picture on the site. So I was very disappointed to find the white lined accent on the toe-it took the shoe from neutral to “This looks stupid”. If there’s such an obvious difference in the look of the shoe from the previous version, that should probably be in the main picture. But maybe that’s just me. Anyway-Back they go. The search continues

Very comfortable and really nice looking sneaker but I felt it lacked sufficient arch support for those who are severe overpronators. Unfortunately they had to go back. It's very hard to find a comfortable black running sneaker with an ample toe box, it seems.

She tried them out for a week. Did a bit of running around the neighborhood and they were not a match. A break-in is required. There was some rubbing in the toe box area. The cushioning is thick, but not plush.

Cute and cushy shoes but toe box seems smaller than my old Brooks. Main problem is the built in roll bar across the ball of the foot , just didn't like the feel.

I got this shoe hoping that the new model would fix some of the complaints about the GTS18.--notably the narrow toe bed and the lack of cushion. While it does fix those issues, the result for me is that it feels a lot more "clunky" than the GTS18. The wider toe bed and the bigger sole leave me tripping over my feet. I felt like I was fighting the shoe to keep my feet walking straight. If you liked the GTS 18, you may struggle some with the newer model. If you don't like the 18 because of how narrow and hard it is, give the 19 a try. It may be more your cup of tea.

I love these shoes for the support and comfort. What I don't like is from the 1st run the bottom slips all over the place. If I'm running on a somewhat wet side walk or even a dry one, I can lose my footing and have my foot slip our from under me. My husband has the male version of this shoe and does not experience this.

I am a very loyal Brooks's customer, but these shoes are very poor quality. I have worn them for 2 months and are already worn down and falling apart. I has my GTS 17 a lot longer before breaking down. Thinking of switching brands because of this quality and not lasting long.

Shoe fit well and was comfortable but the sole completely wore through to the cushioning. I don't run, normal weight, and primarily walk less than 10 miles per week on roads/sidewalks and have had these about a year. I currently have about 3 or 4 pair of running shoes that I rotate (based on color) so these shoes probably had about 100-200 miles of walking on them (I know hard to believe based on the picture). Looks like a lot more and I've never had a pair of shoes wear down this way. But, I actually didn't even notice it until the shoe was turned over. Replaced with GTS 20 hope they last longer!

So disappointed in this shoe. I loved my last Brooks but these have a terrible design. The back is way too high and digs into my ankle. I have tried everything from different socks to lacing the shoes differently with no relief.

I purchased this shoe at a local running store at the clerk's recommendation. Past shoe reviewers and previous versions said great for flat review so I went for it. Even several online reviews said it was good but lo and behold a few months later - my shins are hurting. I come back to the website and now see that they are meant for medium to high arch. They were incredibly comfortable when I bought them and I thought it was a great new match but I guess not.

I have run in brooks gts 13 thru 19. The 19 I had to return. And I knew it from the first run. I gave them another chance. After 25 miles I gave up. I like 18 (though I can't find them. Perhaps it's the new glide rails. Idk. But this shoe isn't for me

These shoes are not Adrenalines. It's not a bad shoe, it's just not the shoe I've been running in for the last 15 years. I knew the instant I'll pulled them out of the box this was not the same shoe. Even the sizing was off. The sole is kind of mushy, and pronation support is just non-existent. But I thought I'd give them a try anyway. Two months later I needed a steroid shot in my hip for bursitis.

When I first purchased these in May/June 2019 they were labeled for flat arches. I purchased two pairs and loved them initially. After running in them for a few months I had awful shin splints. This was not the case with the 18's. Upon looking at them today I see they are now advertised for medium to high arches. Had this been the case months ago I would not have purchased them. I used to love this style shoe and the brand because it had multiple options for flat feet. The updates to the 19 & 20 now means Brooks has one less shoe for flat footed runners which is very disappointing!

I've been wearing this style for 6 years and for some reason this model doesn't seem to offer as much support and hurts my shins and knees. I hope 20 is better.

Arch wore down quickly. I used to only buy Brooks adrenaline bc of the support but now they don't last nearly as long as they used to.
