I have purchased Brooks Addiction for years for my very flat (overpronated) feet. Great arch support, though I find they wear out faster in more recent years. This year's model was a tighter fit, needed to order a half size up from my usual, which seems to work so far.

I am a Brooks Fan but I’m not thrilled with this pair. They have already started to get holes in the upper ankle material of both shoes after only putting 15K on them. They aren’t the most comfortable Brooks I’ve worn either. They will have to be replaced a lot faster than they should be. Not worth the money for me.

Disappointed is my Rating for both Men's and Women's (got one pair in Men's size since I couldn't find one of colors in Women's size). Men's size fit better n toe box, cause women's size was too wide in toe box and heel, causing too much play. I wear a medium width in women's, but narrow would have been too tight in arch. Both women's and Men's were disappointing in cushioning for heel, and in arch support . I had 2 pair of Addiction 13, and they were FABULOUS!! You guys ruined a winning shoe, and so I had to return both. Also, color selection was extremely bland and limited.

These "Brooks" are only a few months old and I only walk 3 miles a day and the left shoe inside toe lining is coming apart at the seams, literally. The toe lining comes undone and when I put my foot in the shoe I can feel it and it creates friction. I have to stick my hand in the shoe to press the lining back up so I can get my foot in comfortably. Inevitably however the lining comes loose again on my walks. These are clearly knock offs. Disappointed Zappos, You've always been super reliable. But not anymore. I spend more to get more. This photo does not do justice but its hard taking a picture of the inside of a shoe.

I love these shoes but after less than six months, they're splitting along the fabric on the inside of both ankles. This seems like a quality control problem as there hasn't been any abrasion in that area. I've written to Brooks about the problem. I'm disappointed because these are the only athletic shoes I find comfortable.

I like the shoe and it is comfortable. But I purchased it on Oct. 10 this year, and as of today it is falling apart. I have worn Brooks Addictions for years and never had a shoe fall apart so fast. I walk 3 to 4 miles a day.

Very comfortable, even with my bunions. Primarily for dog walking, I buy a new pair every year without a problem. Style & colors change slightly each time but never enough to make me look elsewhere. Love 'em.

I wish they changed colors a bit more, but otherwise I buy a new pair every year. My Podiatrist says these are the best. I don’t run, but I have very severe arthritis in my feet, plus flat feet, so the doctor likes to see me wearing these.

I have narrow feet and have been wearing New Balance 990s athletic shoes for a couple of decades. Got tired of the same shoe and wanted to find a new style for a change so decided to try Brooks, because they offer narrow shoes, too. Also, my first "athletic shoes" were Brooks, purchased in 1975! The first time I wore these Addictiton 14 I felt WONDERFUL!!! I am a senior, barely, and have osteoarthritis and my WHOLE BODY FELT BETTER IN THESE SHOES. I highly recommend them!

I have plantar fascilitis and these sneakers give excellent support. I also find them firm so they work well when taking walks through woods or uneven ground. Very comfortable

After wearing a walking boot on my right foot for over a month it was with relief and joy to transition to regular shoes again with my new pair of Brooks shoes! The fit is fantastic and both shoes feel amazingly comfortable on my feet, especially the right foot. An added bonus have been the compliments I’ve received from others who like the stylishness of my new shoes - as do I.

This is a great sneaker if you have flat feet and want firm support. I have several pair of addiction 14 because I walk a lot everyday. They provide the critical support I need for comfortable walking.

I buy these shoes post an ankle/foot injury because of their stability and because they fit the orthotic I must use. As my injury healed I just couldn’t give up these shoes as I just love them. One for going out and another for working outside and getting dirty.

This is a great shoe with a wide toe box. I tried the Hoka One One, which is also a great show, but does not have a wide enough toe box for my sorry feet. Great support, and nice looking. I use an my own arch support so can't speak to the one that comes with. My options are limited so I hope they keep making these!

Get rid of Plantar Fasciitis with this shoe! I can walk 3-4 miles and not be in pain by the end of 1 miles. No need for inserts either.

I purchased these shoes for walking. I have plantar faciaitis and other foot problems. These shoes are very comfortable with great arch support. They have also resolved my knee and back problems.

I have worn Brooks Addiction running and walking shoes for 40 years. I have tried other shoes and these are the best I have found for my feet. Always comfortable with good support.

very comfortable. they are way more snug then what i am used to with brooks shoes. same size i always wear but if you wear them like you are supposed to, they conform to your feet and you'll get used to it.

I bought these for my wife and she swears the Addiction is the greatest shoe she has ever worn. Coming from her that's a bold statement.

I've been using running shoes for aerobic walking for 30 years. New Balance, Asics, and now Brooks. I have to go with the brands that offer a narrow shoe as my feet are a 4A width. Please make women's size 11.5N more available in your Addiction and Ghost. They're so hard to find.

I have really bad plantar fasciitis and these shoes help a lot. They obviously don't fix my issue because only stretching and meds can do that but they make my feet feel a whole lot better. Totally worth the money.
