I am not a runner. I wear this shoe to help with severe knee pain. They help to keep my knee in line, which allows me to walk with more comfort. I have tried several shoes and keep coming back to the addiction. They are a quality shoe that lasts.

Basic style but, that is fine since I have been looking for a comfortable, sturdy walking shoe. This Brooks model fits the bill. A little stiff so think I’ll need to do some breaking in, worth doing to get good arch support. Thank

I have purchased and have worn these shoes for 15+ years. I like this new style even better than the Addiction Walker I.

These I like and wear on a regular basis. There was no "breaking in" time with this shoe. Do they come in white? I have the black and tan colors now.

Because of my life long flat feet, at 70 I now require very comfortable walking shoes and these fit that requirement perfectly. With these shoes I don't require any further modifications to the shoes. Very comfortable

I am a walker--not a runner. Best walking shoes in years. I had used the Ariel for a long time but found the recent iteration was not working for me. I am so glad I opted for the Addiction. First shoe, in a long time, where I do not need a separate orthotic. I am over-pronator with weak ankles and advanced osteoarthritis in both knees. The Addiction walkers are supportive and comfortable from day one. Have done several 6-9 mile walks with happy feet. Will be buying another pair soon to keep on the shelf for when I wear these out!

I like my shoes. This is the second pair I've had. They are comfortable and accommodate my wide feet. I should have purchased 2 pair when I originally bought these.

I got extra wide. And for the first time in almost 10 years I was able to stand and walk at work all day without being in a lot of pain. Don't get me wrong, feet are still sore after a long day. But 95% better!! I'm so thankful for this shoe and my friend who recommended Brooks. No more new balance!

This is a great solid shoe for walking. I like a firm feel underfoot. I have never bought the Addiction walker before, having considered it very unattractive. This suede version looks pretty nice, though!

I have been wearing the leather version for years because they help my arthritic ankles. The suede version is much cuter and there is more air flow and less sweaty feet. I have them in all 3 colors, and if there were more colors I would buy them too. One strange thing I have found is that the black is roomier in the toes than the other colors.

When I got the first pair, I realized I needed more room in the tie box. The representative was very helpful with getting a return changed to an exchange. This pair works much better and I really liked the style and the color.

This is the first time I’ve purchased the suede version of this shoe. It looks more modern. I was surprised I had to order a full size larger. The shoe is very comfortable and satisfies my foot doctor. I did notice my feet are sweaty after wearing for a while so I wonder if the suede version is less breathable.

The shoes were delivered super fast. I had been wanting to re-purchase Ariel as I needed maximum support but they were in stock, so I ordered these Addiction and discovered they are just as supportive. They feel so good on my feet, with no break in period needed.

Best shoe ever! The most supportive shoe I've ever worn. I recommend buying a 1/2 size larger. My only complaint is I wish there were more color options.

Love the way they fit. I did get 1/2 size up from my NB's They hug the heel and good support on the instep. Also like that they are lighter and the color is nice. I am a walker, and they work well for walking.

My feet have had many issues and a couple surgeries due to years of dancing, running, and injury. I have had to cease those activities but continue to walk regularly. These shoes provide great support, and wide toe box which doesn’t rung.

The toe box is roomy enough for the wide front of my foot, and the extra hole for ankle tightening lacing means that they do not slip on my ankles. I have high arches, which are supported. Cute for sensible shoes, and seem like they will be fine walkers (just got back from 3 miles.
