Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

They do not fit like my prior Tan Walkers, and they look so CLUNKY in Black. Will not buy more.

It's a decent shoe. Comfortable and sturdy but not very durable unfortunately. I average about 7,000-10,000 steps a day and they breakdown after about 3 months.

Not as cushioned as I would like and little stiff (inflexible). Overall, still a comfortable shoe.

Alittle tight to start off with but loosened up nicely

no where near as comfortable as the last model.

Don't think they are sized properly. Starting to think Brooks is more name than quality.

The shoe fits and feels great. The problem is it's ugly!!! Looks like like an old mans orthopedic shoe. You must be able to fix the appearance of this shoe!!!! If you can I would rate it a 5.

The shoes feel about the same as the previous Walkers but it seems that the materials have been " downgraded" . The shoes are really noisy indoors. They really squeak guide a bit.

Great comfortable shoe hands down! The negative part is that the upper toe box and the ball of your foot where you crease every step the leather material is deteriorating and makes the appearance of the shoe look bad.

I like the comfort and support these shoes offer, but they squeak with every step. I prefer the older Addiction model that had a mostly mesh upper. Was much lighter and quieter.

Wish the cushion was a little softer

This is my second pair and I don't think these new ones have the same build as last years. I really don't think these are going to last as well as the old ones and I wore them right into the ground. I wish I could be more specific, but it's tough. These are already losing some of the fit around my foot. I am still looking forward to the day when I can buy a pair of support shoes and not have to add an insert to make it as high arched as it needs to be.

This shoe is more narrow than the previous model and is stiffer. I also liked the looks of the previous model better.

Shoe is too heavy for me...Have a hard time acclimating to the weight of it......

My shoes are not Slip resistant at all! I work in the food industry and almost felt multiple times :( It sucks cause it is a confortable shoe

Its looking like I need to return this shoe as it seems to be aggravating my back problems. It definitely was "different" at first, but I walked around in it and after a 2-3 weeks it definitely broke in. Still not the same as walking around in an athletic shoe. But, like i said, its aggravating my back.

I'm wearing them for two weeks now, and even that are ok, I was looking for more cushion. I need it a higher hill and these shoe lol like it has it but is just not there.

I have worn these shoes for many years and have had at least 10 pairs. This pair seems to be shorter than the rest. I am debating returning them for a half size bigger.

The quality of the shoe is excellent. The issue is the smell of the shoes that comes from inside from one of the materials, they cant be worn because of the foul smell. My son has a pair of Brooks shoes and has the same issue and its only from Brooks products.

I prefer the leather uppers and the style of the original Walkers. The Walker has been my go to shoe for years. That may change now with the Walker 2. I certainly would not have purchased the Walker 2 if the original had still been available!

OK walker shoe. Left heal pain began anew after using the Walker "2" for about 3 weeks. More pain than off-the-shelf NB 1.0. Yes, size your W V2 @ least one size bigger than normal shoes in your possession. I may try a running shoe next time to use as a walker. "Waxed" laces are nice. Nice moderate tread for walking.

Shoes are 1/2 of what I was looking for . They give me the support but not so much cushion. These are my 3rd pair of Brooks. I have the Anthem 2 and the Anthem 3. The 3's are my favorite. I'm a 72 year old man. 5'7 145 lbs. I walk an average of 2 to 3 miles daily on asphalt roads in a neighborhood that is a mix of flats and hills. I bought the walkers in anticipation of wearing them as a comfortable shoe when I wanted something that didn't look like a tennis shoe. I think the sacrifice in comfort/cushion comes from the hard sole.

Where is the Addiction Walker? I much prefer the previous Addiction version to this new one. Every aspect...overall comfort, support, look, assortment of colors is lacking in the new Addiction Two as compared to the original Addiction. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!

I miss the stronger support of the original model of Addiction Walker.
