Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

Very comfortable sneaker, it is excellent for supporting my walking routine.

To me it?s just not a comfortable shoe. I have tried wearing them several times and still just not comfortable. For what they cost I feel like there are much better options out there. I tripped and fell the first time I wore then and it put a bad scratch on one of the shoes so I can?t return them.

I had read prior reviews. The fit did not seem any different. This shoe seems a bit more streamlined in appearance though it weighs the same. It does take time to break in. It still seems sturdy and stable. The strings could be longer. And you could give it a little color, it seems so bland. I can see where you trimmed the rubber on the toe.

Excellent for those that toil on their feet, especially retail workers on concrete floors. Don't mess with the moneymakers (your feet!), spend the money. They are worth it. Just wish they weren't so visually sedate.

Love the walking shoes, fit, comfort are exceptional. One wish is for a more stylish design.

On my feet at work all day. Couldn't do it without these.

So far they are ok. Everyone was building Brooks up to me. They aren't as comfortable as everyone let on. I walk 5 to 10 miles a day. I usually buy New Balance and they last me a year. Well see how long these last.

I bought this shoe based on a pair of running shoes by brooks that very comfortable. I'm only walking in them. And it read that it was slip resistance . Comfortable? Yes. Slip resistance? NO. I work in a restaurant and am always looking for a comfortable slip resistance shoe. This isn't it. I will wear for walking the dog

The shoe does not breath. It's very hot.

Squeaks under the laces. Loud creaking/squeaking with every step! I will be returning them,

I have had numerous Addiction Walkers in the past. I usually get them every 6 months. However the last two and especially the last pair aren't even close to what they used to be. Not near as comfortable and the cheaper upper leather squeaks terrible when you walk. I'm a mail courier and my clients have even made a comment. " We hear you coming a mile away ." Please return to the old version with real leather uppers instead of plastic.

The sole is more slippery than the old Addiction Walker. The loop on the tongue is too close to the end of the tongue so it is difficult to lace and unlace. The loop should be back down the tongue like on the Addiction Walker. The upper is made of something that does not allow the laces toward the toe to stay snug before finishing the lacing. The upper feels cheap and seems less strong than the Addiction Walker. I wear a size 13A shoe (buy a 13B because nobody makes a 13A) so I have 2 choices for athletic walking shoe, Brooks Addiction Walker 2 or New Balance. Due to Brooks not having the size I buy I was forced to buy a New Balance model. The New Balance sole is even more slippery and I fell as a result. Both the Addiction Walker and Addiction Walker 2 have better standard arch support than New Balance. Both are more comfortable than New Balance. The Addiction Walker was a 5 star shoe. The Addiction Walker 2 is only 3 stars but is the best choice I have. Flat shoe laces can cut into the eyelets and I have literally have cut through an eyelet before I learned not to use flat laces. I think round laces are better and would like to see them in future shoes. I walk 4 miles, 5 to 7 days a week, completing the walk in 1 hour in all but icy conditions. I have been doing this in Brooks Addiction Walker and Adiction Walker 2 for over 10 years.

STOP your subtle changes to a product that sells well. All you usually do is make it worst!. The older version fit much better and was way more comfortable

what used to fit like a glove,(the only sneaker that fit so well) no longer does since your revamping it to #2. You could have changed many parts of the shoe, why did you mess with the fit. It couldn't be due to a lack of sales because every time I bought them I had to wait a month at least for it. Put the toe back the way it was.
