Toe box is roomy. Overall the show is clunky

I don't run but have used them for walking. They have been very comfortable. They work very well with my Foot-Ups which I need to correct my toe drop. I wear them while doing exercising as well. Very nice.

I love the comfort of this model. It's my 4th pair of Addictions. However, this pair is different from all the others, because these shoes squeek with every step. I can't hear it outdoors, but indoors, when the sound can bounce back to me from the walls, they squeek ... even on carpeting. At first I thought I just have to "break them in", but I have about 20 miles on these shoes and they still squeek. This never happened with any of the previous Addictions. Were it not for that, it would have received five stars.

Comfortable, light, and good fit. Could be used for a dress shoe. Some abrasion on top of toes after initial use, but more likely from individual foot characteristic than shoe design.

Great shoe for work where I'm on my feet 8 to 12 hours daily and 10,000 to 18,000 steps a day. Slip Resistant for the perfect grip, great shoe for for people that have to have all black shoes at work. Only downfall, they aren't the most durable but where I work they make it about the average time.

I found them hard to put on for an 11. My perfect size might be 10.5 Wide, but that was not available. That aside, once I force them on, they are very stable, which is what I was looking for. Great Brooks quality. . . When I was younger and jogged a bit, Brooks was my shoe of choice. Thus, the four starts and not five. . .

I have wide feet and wear orthotics. This is one of a handful of shoes that work for me.

I am a delivery driver and walk a min of 12,000 steps a day and these shoes are the only ones that last the longest. Most shoes I have to replace after 3 months but these last me about 5-6 months. I have to have a polishable leather shoe for work. I will continue to buy the brooks addiction walker 2s for work.

We are required to wear closed toe, closed heal (no mules), slip resistant, leather body shoes for work. I also am on my feet all day, so I needed comfortable too. These shoes checked all the boxes. I am a woman wearing the men's style for the D width.

Shoes fit great. Bought them to help with heal spur and they have eliminated that problem. the only issue I have after wearing them for 3 weeks is they make a squishing noise .

The sqeaking is a little irritating.
Is there anything you can do about that?

The shoe is comfortable good on the knees but quality is questionable I bought 4 pair so far and will buy again but one pair lasted a month the toe of the shoe came loose. I would still buy

I use these for work I need to have something that is all leather and black. I usually wear the Brooks beast because of flat feet and I need more arch support. These fit the bill. I wear size 15 in everything and 15 in this fits fine. Indeed they are old man shoes but I don’t care they satisfy my work requirement and they don’t hurt my feet.

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.

I really like the feel and support of Addiction walker 2 shoes. The only downside is that they were creaking loudly the first week I wore them. The creaking is getting quieter. Almost returned them except that I really like the support they give me.

The reviews I read by those who had been wearing addiction 1’s lead me to delay trying these 2’s. Truth is there not the same but they’re good. My 15 M’s are a good fit.

I deliver for an Amazon DSP so I'm walking on concrete, up and down stairs, and climbing in and out of my van all day, usually about 150 stops per day. These shoes are more comfortable than most work shoes I've had. I've had mine a week now and my back, legs, and knees don't hurt as much as the boots or shoes I used to deliver in. In the next version they could add more cushioning though, I think Hoka has these beat by a lot in that department, unfortunately hoka doesn't have slip resistant so not Amazon approved.
I'd also recommend:
Hoka, Timberland Pro
