Customer Reviews Brooks Adrenaline GTS 19

Would be a great shoe like previous versions but the fabric around the toe wears out quickly. I've gone through 2 pairs and could see my sock around my big toe after a couple of months (around 150 miles). Way too expensive to wear out that quickly.

GTS 18 was my first shoe and it was awesome. I rock with as 4E it makes for a challenge trying to get color. But that shoe felt so good. I tried the GTS 19 and I have to say the change for me was not good. Going to try and find GTS 18 on my next purchase.

I had to return the GTS 19. I have purchased the GTS 17's and 18's And were satisfied with he fit of the previous models. The 19's run slightly bigger and the size 13's felt too roomy. I'm fearful the size 12 may be too small.

I have Brooks Adrenaline GTS 16's and they have been the best shoe I've ever owned. I love them! Unfortunately, they are literally falling apart now. I purchased some Adrenaline GTS 19's online in the same exact size and was unable to wear them. I wore them for a very short time in the house to see how they would feel, but in that short time my foot got so sore I had to take them off. They didn't feel anything at all like my GTS 16's. I returned them and ended up buying some Asics. Very disappointed!

Had many pairs of these shoes in the past, great support. Not sure the newer model will benefit me. My left ankle rolls in slightly. Without a firm post, the guide rails do not shift my ankle back in a neutral position. I've run in them a few times and I get a little pain in that ankle joint. The shoes feel great when I put them on, but I feel it's more suited for a neutral runner. Brief excerpt on Brooks Adenaline: While support or stability shoes have historically solved only for overpronation with a medial post, this GuideRail technology shifts the focus of support from your foot to your knee. Brooks explains GuideRails like bumpers on a bowling alley: A medial bumper guides your foot back to a neutral position if it rolls too far to the inside, while a lateral (or outside) bumper does the same if your foot rolls outward. My opinion is that the design team from Brooks botched this shoe as a support shoe. The best bumpers will not solve the motion control issues for runners who overpronate. I would give this shoe 2 stars for a support shoe, but 4 to 5 stars for a neutral shoe. Please bring back the adrenaline with a firm medial post.

This is the pair that is separating inside at the toe. Just wrote a review on the other pair I bought

Like many, I was a huge fan of the Adrenaline GTS 18 and found the GTS 19 to be a step down. It feels a half size too big and the support actually hurt my ankle. The width was perfect but the shoe felt like it was turning my feet slightly inward. Thank goodness for the excellent return policy. I exchanged these for the GTS 20. Hopefully the 19 was just a fluke!

True to size, and super light. Had all the colors one could ask for. Keep up with the black on black on black option on other shoes for us less flashy and needed for work folks. Great show but as a extremely flat footed person they just didn't agree with me. I need more support and cushion. So it always going to be me and the Addiction, Beast or Transcend. Nice looking show and light like I said but sent back and waiting on the next Addiction to drop. Brooks are the best as a whole hands down though.

Overall, the shoes are satisfactory. I was put off by the garish white color of the soles; gray would have been classier looking, although the white soles might be helpful if one were running or walking on a dark night without a light.

This is my second pair of the GTS 19's. Prior to these shoes I had 3 pairs of the 18's and I am not a fan of whatever changes were made between the two models. The designs are fine but the actual structure of the shoe/sole is not as comfortable nor does it hold its shape as well as the 18's.

I have these shoes a shot since I have flat feet and the running store evaluation said it's more ideal for me to wear shoes with support. I don't like these shoes at all. It may just be me since I've only worn neutral cushion shoes like the ghosts and have never had any issues. I'm giving it 3 stars since the shoes aren't bad but supportive shoes aren't really comfortable for my flat feet
