Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

I was excited to try Brooks since it was reputable name. I alternated these with another pair of shoes for work to see which was best
I initially chose my alternate and wore for about a monthe...despite not causing any issues I decideded to give the Brooks another try. I developed an initial knee and shin pain which progressed into plantar fascitis in both feet. I tried stretching g and exercise thinking it was just my aging body and weight. Nothing was working so I decided to buy a new pair of my go to NIKES. By the next day my pain began to improve.
Brooks...disappointing. maybe ot was the model.
I'd also recommend:
NIKE

I walk about 30 miles a week, every week. These arrived May 18 and I started to use them full time right before the holiday. It's less than a month and they are done, totally depleted and junked, and the entire month was filled with support issues due to poor craftsmanship and/or design. I called Brooks and customer service stated that these are not cushioned or supported for my use, yet they are advertised as maximum comfort for extended walking. The plus side of the product is the arch and no slip sole.

Shipping box arrived promptly. Opened it with great anticipation. Put on the shoes and could just barely get them on my feet. Double-checked the size. 15 wide, my standard size but they felt like 11 narrow. Sat at my computer with them on to get used to them before taking a walk. Took them off when I started losing sensation in the left leg. Thought about ordering 15 double-wide but doubted those would fit either. Shoes are obviously well made but seem designed for narrow adolescent feet not my old guy's flat, long, wide feet. A true disappointment.

So ugly and uncomfortable. Bought for work because I needed a pollishable shoe. HURTS the joints because the sole is as hard as a rock.

Bought two pairs, narrow width -- two weeks apart. 1st one was size normally worn, 11.5 narrow. Was too short, plus big toe rubbed against front of shoe, width was good. Ordered another pair only 1/2 size larger, 12 narrow, same thing. Couldn't order 1 size larger (13) because it would cause it to be too loose. It seemed like the perfect shoe for walking, not running or hiking.

Unfortunately, these were horrible and unlike any Brooks shoes I've owned. They squeak while you walk— and that never goes away, which makes them unusable. A less dramatic problem is the lack of breathability.

Pro: ankle and heel area firm and non-slipping. Con: sole does not bend which makes toes hurt.

The 1 & 2 Star reviewes are legit. Tight fitting and stiff. Not worth attempting to break them in. If you have any kind of foot conditions, I wouldn???t recommend these. I will be returning them soon. I have bought and recommend the Glycerin GTS 21???s. Much better comfort.

Maybe the most uncomfortable shoe I've ever wore. I love the other Brooks shoes I have but these are heavy and stiff.

They look good and were comfortable but started to fall apart within 10 days. Tried to get ahold of Brooks and no response

I have purchased several Brooks sneakers in the past with great results. However these were extremely uncomfortable from the start and after giving some time for them to break in. They were still unacceptable. They went back. I needed some shoes for work that were fully leather. Now i am gonna try a different brand

Hurt my back after a day of wearing and we're NOT SLIP RESISTANT i could pretty much slide in a water spill not okay, DO NOT LABEL A SHOE SLIP RESISTANT if it's not!! I trusted brooks and they have completely failed on this one!!

I have been wearing Brooks Addiction for about 25 years due to its comfort and support. This is the first time I have been disappointed. The upper on this model is stiff and uncomfortable. Plus, they are noisy - they squeak as I walk. What have you done with the Addiction models I loved in the past, Brooks?

I have worked in these for more than 8 hours on my feet for 3 days, not in sucession, but several days apart. The shoes are very uncomfotable, with my left foot developing a callus on the bottom.

this shoe looks good, made good, but is not a size 11 that I need. Very disappointed as I like the quality of its construction.

I ordered a 14 wide and these shoes are way too narrow. I have been trying to break into them for about two weeks with no luck. They were ordered for work, due to the constant standing, walking, but now looks like I'll have to order another pair, elsewhere.
