Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

I've worn these shoes for years but the new version hurts my toes with the same size I've always worn. Keep hoping it's just the new wear but not getting any better.

Coming apart at the toe less than 1 month old

runs too small and too narrow. will return them

'One-star' is not an accurate assessment but there doesn't seem to be any way to choose N/A. The shoes are too small and I can't wear them. I ordered size 8 1/2 because that was the size of my previous shoes (Etonic) although I understand of course that sizes do vary between different manufacturers. In any case, I appreciate your Happy Feet policy (or whatever it's called) and I will be returning them.

I've been buying these shoes for 15 yrs. I loved them and recommended them to everyone. Just bought a new pair and was shocked. Negatives: The shoe changed. Harder (stiff) soles... and slip prone (smoother). Not for snow states. Slightly smaller toe box. Walkers need a little give in the toe box area. If you are on you feet all day this isn't the shoe for you. Positive: Style upgrade. I would not recommend these shoes going forward.

The Brooks Addiction was my favorite shoe for years. It had great padding good arch support with heavy duty leather. Sometime in 2021 Brooks changed the specifications for these shoes. The new version has cheap looking stamped-out leather. It is also a lighter weight shoe without the padding of the original version. Much less protection for your feet. What a disappointment.

Unfortunately I had to return them as the fit was terrible, which surprised me in that I wear the running shoe.

Shoe was returned as right shoe sole did not fit properly in either pair of the two pair that I order

not true to size - too tight

Had to return them since after 15+ years of wearing these shoes they are no longer true to size. Another victim of shrinkflation.

I was upset excited because I have a pair of brooks shoes for my everyday use and wanted a pair of them with the same comfort but just something I can use for work as a server. I have to go into and out of the kitchen multiple times a day and every time I walked into the kitchen it felt like I was on ice. Needless to say I'm rather disappointed. Why can I find any comfortable shoes that do half way decent and being slip resistant.

Unfortunately, this shoe was a bad choice for me. It felt like I had a 2x4 strapped to my foot. I broke the shoe in over two weeks, but it never felt right. Near blister on my right heel, bruise on my left second toe, and always stiff.

Very disappointed ,you have obviously changed the Inside of the shoe the arch is different my husband tried to wear them but feet hurt him tremendously we will be returning the shoes He has been wearing these shoes for many years and we be ordering them every year or two and they've always been the same we recognize they look different immediately but thought maybe it was cosmetic but the first day that he wore them they hurt his arches which we've never experienced before you're going to change the shoe you should call it something else He wore them for a week and it's only gotten worse so we will be returning them

My old pair of Brooks walking shoes are better than a new pair. The material didn't feel like leather. The bridge of my toes were too tight and they squeeked. Sent them back.
