These are the BEST shoes I have ever worn! I am not a runner, but I do a lot of walking, both outside and on a treadmill with a moderate incline. I have no feet issues, but these feel amazing!! You need to buy these shoes!

I am now allowed to transition out of a walking boot after having Tenex Plantar Fasciitis surgery. The doctor recommended a few different GOOD brands of running shoes to get to wear from now on. I got these Brooks and they are GREAT! I am out of my boot totally and a little earlier then expected, which I think is from having this shoe. The only thing that irks me is the expense of them. That is why I got this one, because the price was better then the other styles of Brooks. I am on my feet all day. I work in an Orthopedic doctor's office. I do casting, splinting and orthopedic braces.

They felt 1/2 size too big but I kept them. I will try different size next time.

They fit great and are super comfortable. I had a foot injury a few years ago and need arch support. These aren’t the most supportive, but they are very comfortable and my feet don’t hurt after walking quite a bit. Very satisfied.

Love my Brooks. I’m a surgical nurse and have worn other brands; Dansko, New Balance, but I love my Brooks. This style fits my high arch, wider foot perfectly.

I love these shoes! I needed a supportive but light “inside” shoe for around the house. I live in Florida and wear sandals far too much - not good for the feet on a continuous basis. These shoes are perfect. Soft and comfortable, light so I don’t feel like I’m dragging around heavy shoes. They look EXACTLY LIKE THE PICTURE. Soft gray with lavender trim. Actually pretty. The arch support isn’t much but an orthotic fits in easily.

I absolutely love them! Very comfortable, stylish and they match my work uniform! I walk about 3000 steps daily and my feet never hurt at the end of my shift!

I do not run, however I walk for about 3 miles everyday, up and down hills. The Anthem 2 is perfect for this. Walking briskly my feet bend easily with the running sole, plus there is just enough cushion. I switched from New Balance to Anthem 2, bought 4 pair in different colors. Love the styling, they look great, slender, clothe makes for a smooth look, plus lightweight. Please continue to make this shoe.
You have a satisfied customer who will buy more.

I love the look of the Brooks, but the fit wasn't what I expected. My toes hurt after 3 different times running in them. I hope Brooks will give me some options on a different pair.

I really love Brooks and how they fit my feet. This is my third pair (the first 2 being Ghost 10/11s) and I don't ever have a difficult time where I'm "breaking in" the shoes. They're reliable and great for road and trail running.

I love these shoes! They are true to size and not too wide! They are just so comfortable which is important to me because I have plantar fasciitis. These shoes are the perfect fit!

I have a hard time finding a running shoe I like- I have small, wide, flat feet. The Anthem 2 is exactly the shoe I?d been looking for. It?s nice and light and propels forward nicely. The toe box is wide and high enough that I don?t have to worry about pinching or rubbing. I put about a hundred miles on my pair before I was willing to review them, but I?m very pleased- I already bought another pair as my backup to work in once my race gets closer.

These shoes are perfect! Replaced my worn out Brooks with these (now just walking and not running after too many knee surgeries) and these made a huge difference. Would definitely recommend and you can't beat the price!
