Too stiff. Should have stayed with the Glycerin. If I hadn?t tried them twice I would have returned them. I only walk ( 3.5-3.8 mph) don?t run. Probably will stay with the Glycerin for distance walking and only use the Walker for rare short slow walks.

I’ve worn the addiction walker shoes for a very long time. When the switch was made to the walker 2, the I had to go up a half size in shoes and a size in width but these are as good as ever. I am on my feet and walk a lot for my job. These shoes do a great job helping my feet feel good after a long day of walking.

I've purchased this shoes at least 15 times and it's been the most comfortable shoes to wear for being on your feet more than 8hrs. The only downside, would be the cost. Service was excellent and on time.

Ok this is the third pair of this walking shoe Ive purchased but I noticed I was slipping a little on wet surfaces outside. Then I saw the design of the sole has changeda lot. Wish they had maintained the old design , as I never had that issue with previous walkers in the same make. I guess in future I will ask to see the sole before purchasing, or look at different models.. although the trend seems to be geared more to running shoes now . You could consider theres a large number in the senior market looking for good walking shoes.

After trying them a week, they have good arch support in walking. I walk around 5 miles a day, and so far have enjoyed wearing them. I know that on my long walks, I will get adequate support in walking.
They are a bit heavy for runners, it have found no problems with casual walking.
I also am pleased that they look dressy and can probably substitute for a semi-dress shoe if needed.

It is a great walking shoe. Support is excellent. Break-in time a bit longer than the original but is still pretty quick. It also is wearable with thick hiking socks during cold/wet weather so hiking boots aren't necessary then.

Love the shoe but...the sides used to be all leather but now they are part plastic. Please get rid of the plastic and return to all-leather.

Always supportive and comfortable. Great fit. These are my work shoes for the therapy sport fitness center where I work and its easier to get through my day with them. Also Im type 2 diabetic so foot care is important.

Husband likes them a lot. He needed a very comfortable shoe that he could get away with wearing with suits. These look close enough to leather dress shoes to wear to the office. He wears a half size bigger in Brooks than his other shoes. They fit the same as his Brooks Ghost athletic shoes.

I have experience with the Addiction Walker 1 shoes which I would rate 5 stars. The Addiction Walker 2 series seems to be slightly narrower than Addiction 1. In general, Addiction Walker shoes require several months of break-in to enhance the comfort. So, I haven't used the Addiction Walker 2 series long enough to compare to the old version for maximum comfort. Additionally, I may modify with custom sole inserts. The quality seems fine.

Per my orthotics maker this is the tennis shoe I should be wearing and it and version 1 have been great.
Just don't hide the version with laces in your ads.

Same fit as the mesh version. Good support and cushion, with sufficient room in toe box to put in custom orthotics. I wish they came in some other colors and suede material. The black and white leather versions are not so stylish, but they are so comfortable you have to forgive the looks.
I'd also recommend:
Chacos for sandals. Only Brookes for walking!
