Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction 14

I guess they are ok. I did not like them as much as my other pair. They feel narrow toward the toe. I need more room. Will try a different tennis shoe when that time comes.

Fit reasonably well per usual... but why do brooks soles squeak so much?

The shoe is true to size has a wide toe box and padding. I walk between 7-10 miles a day and thought I would try this shoe over a Ghost. This shoe seems big on my foot. Slips in the heel. My legs get so tired walking in these. I keep thinking things will get better with time but its been 2 weeks and I dont think my shoes are in sync with me. Next pair I will go back to wearing a Ghost.

I didn't notice any real arch support but i bought inserts for that just in case. I really wanted to keep and like these! Unfortunately, every time I wore them (inside on my treadmill), I felt really flat-footed in these, especially the left foot. I had to put on some other shoes and try running in them to make sure I wasn't imagining it!

I’ve had multiple foot and ankle surgeries and have worn Brooks shoes for the past 15 years. My right foot is size 6.5 B and my left foot is size 6 nearly B. I wear my shoes with Thorlo padded socks, custom full orthotics, and ideally a foam insole so I need to size up. I wanted a fabric upper for the hot Arizona summer, so I ordered this style in a 7.5D (based on wearing Brooks shoes and reviewer comments). It was the correct size, but the shoes were not deep enough to work with thick socks and my orthotics. Plus the fabric upper did not feel supportive enough for me.

Super cute sneaker, loved the style and very comfortable. However after just a couple of weeks, they literally started bursting at the seams. The topline of the collar (the area that goes around ankle) on both shoes started tearing and coming apart. So they were returned for another Brooks style.

I have tried to like these shoes but just do not. I strongly dislike the light color (but that's all I can find in a narrow size) and the shoe is just too roomy., unlike my Ghost 13's.

These have absolutely no cushion and are very stiff. The color is pretty retro too.

Tried this for pronation. Not bad but I need a wider toe box, and felt there could have been a little more cushioning under the ball of the foot/forefoot. Also, the rim of plush padding around the interior upper edges of side and back felt good, but accentuated that the shoe was cut just a little too low for my taste. Ended up going with the Hoka Arahi 5 which felt more balanced all around.

The arch support in these is pretty much non-existent. Very disappointing, as I've worn multiple versions of the Addiction and loved them but now have to find a new shoe.

I wear an 11 Narrow (2A) and I ordered the Addiction 14 and the Adrenaline 21 to try. I am returning the Addiction 14 because it feels wider and less supportive through the midfoot and my heel slips badly from the heel when I walk. The Adrenaline is the better shoe for my foot so I kept that one and would recommend it over the Addiction for the narrowness of the heel if you need a narrow heel in a shoe.
