Customer Reviews Brooks Ravenna 10

These are good solid shoes, and the look is great. Plenty of room in the toes.

Loved the feel and style of my old pair of Ravenna (they are blue). Unfortunately, they started tearing about four months after I got them, which I've never had happen with a Brooks shoe. Would like to try another pair, but the colors are wretched. Cannot believe that you have designers who think the current color schemes are attractive. Also, do ANY of your shoes have decent grip in the rain? Years ago, they did, but not anymore. You're in Seattle... make shoes that can handle wet pavement.

Good, light construction. Decent size toe box. Light support

I have bought your Pure Cadence for years and really loved their fit. That being said, when it wasn't available I looked for an alternative. I love the look of the Ravens ,but the fit is not as good . It seems to be too big but my heel and toe fit correctly. The ball of my foot area seems very spacious making it feel like my foot can move around. The Pure Cadence seemed to hug my foot and these certainly do not. I'm not sure what to do for my next pair after this experience. Hopefully the Pure Cadence will come back.

I love Revennas but these don't seem to have the comfort I'm used to. The last couple pairs have not been my favorite. Maybe I'm just getting older and shoes don't have the same comfort. I like the color and I'll probably come back but may for another shoe.

I like the lightweight feel of these shoes. However, the arch support seems a bit off, and the guide rails technology seems to add foot pain where I never had before in previous models.

I've ran in the Ravenna for years now and LOVE them but with this one, my feet keep going numb as I run which has never happened before. I'm in the process of trying different tying methods to see if it helps but I'm fearing I'll have to buy another shoe even though I just bought these. I'm not sure if they have changed something (like how narrow they are) but pretty bummed so far.

I don't like the new styling as much as I liked the older ones, and hate the color options. The peach/pink shades are horrible; you would never use such colors for men. The fit and comfort are fine, which is really what's most important, but if I'm going to invest good money in running shoes, I don't expect to hate how they look.

After trying a few different types of running shoes, Brooks Ravenna became my go-to shoe beginning with Ravenna 2 through Ravenna 10; however, and this is a big however, the Ravenna 10 falls short of what Brooks has delivered in the past. The new design with a closer fitting foot is terrible as the "tongue" of the shoe is fixed in place with Ravenna 10 and I am now experiencing pain when running that I had not experienced previously, especially across my the top of my foot and even my knees. I thought something was physically wrong this running season and then I looked closer at the shoe to try and what adjustments I could make and discovered that the tongue placement was a part of the new structure. Update Ravenna 11 with the standard shoe tongue, please!

I have weird feet and my standard has been the Nike Pegasus since the 28 model. I was pleasantly surprised by the Ravenna 9. (It was the first time I ever tried this model). The shoes were supportive but still felt light. I could use them for long runs but also thought they felt speedy enough to race 5Ks. I thought they were going to be the model I would alternate my Pegasus with. I can't explain it but the 10s just don't seem to meld with my feet as much. Sometimes they hurt my feet. I don't know if I just need to break them in more... I will still use them as a training shoe for runs 10 miles and less but I don't see them as a race shoe (5K to marathon).
