I have been wearing the Brooks Addiction walker for over five years. This last shoe I ordered, the
Brooks Addiction Walker Two is not the shoe I have been wearing. I have returned this shoe. I could not walk more than two or three miles and my feet were killing me. I do not know what changes you have made in this shoe, but it does not work for me.

This is such a cheap revision of a solid supportive shoe. The tongue is to short to use all the lace openings and a large piece of material is inside which rubs on the top of the foot. The lace openings stretch and would probably break over time if shoe was laced tightly. The material is do soft it lacks support.

I have been a Zappos customer for over 20 years. I actually called them and spoke to a supervisor. I explained how the Brooks were not wide much less extra wide. These shoes are overpriced and are simply not as advertised. Cheap materials that don't fit. I will send them back and demand that Zappos try focusing on customer satisfaction rather than profit. Anyone who has been a customer over 10 years must know the quality has dropped while prices soar. Zappos, with their purchasing power, can no longer lay the responsibility on the manufacturer!

These shoes are not even wide less extra wide. This is NOT a Brooks problem; Zappos can have their manufacturer make anything they wish; they choose not to do so. The last three pairs of shoe I have purchased, I had to send back. It is apparent to me, Zappos is not longer customer oriented and hasn't been in the past 2 years. Customer since 1999.
I'd also recommend:

long time user Addiction Walker. Recently bought Addiction 2. Very disappointed in the shoe. Did not offer much cushioning when walking or lateral support. Will not purchase another pair. Should Brooks discontinue the Addiction Walker, will probably look to another manufacturer for my next pair of walking shoes

Unfortunately, not an improvement over the excellent original. Quite the opposite Brooks have ruined the longstanding, hugely popular Addiction walker. The footbase is shorter, toes hit the end in one's usual size. The tread that used to make the Addiction suitable for light hiking is gone replaced by an absurdly slippery sole. The tongue feels cheap and less breathable. And all of this without mentioning the hideous aesthetic of this disappointing down-date. The original Addiction Walker was my go-to for years and years. Now must search for something else, alas.
