I ordered them and unfortunately they showed up stained yellow and discolored. I was advised to return them for a refund and place an order again, but they still showed up in the same condition.

I really wanted to like these. It is so hard to find a size 12 in a narrow width. The length was good, but my heels slipped up and down, even with the shoes tied uncomfortably tight. Also, it felt like my feet sat too deeply in the shoes. Perhaps they are made to take another inner sole.

Bought these March and didn't start wearing them until April and by June 13th both soles had come apart. So, if you are walking around a lot I do not recommend these. I got roughly 11 weeks out of them. Otherwise, I liked the look and feel

These shoes feel like a dream and I've walked many miles since I got them. However, the first time around Zappos sent me dirty shoes, they had clearly been worn outside. Their returns are not as easy as they were years ago, and I am pretty disappointed. They used to enclose a return label, but because I was sent dirty shoes that were clearly used, I had to call them which is never convenient. If I am paying this amount for shoes I expect them to be brand new. I won't order from Zappos again, seems like they don't check items that were returned to make sure they are fine to sell. If I wanted used shoes, I would go to the thrift store. Zappos did make it right, but it should not happen in the first place.

Thanks, Brooks designers, for keeping a leather shoe in your line up. This shoe is supportive when on your feet for many hours at a time. Also they are easier to keep clean and sharp looking than fabric shoes. And they stay drier when walking in wet grass, etc.
Narrow shoes are much more comfortable than trying to make do with medium widths. The Adrenalines I purchased at the same time are nice and comfortable for shorter periods only. The GTS leaked like a sieve walking in wet grass. My feet we completely wet within steps. And they are difficult to keep clean.
Ill buy Addictions again.

I get 10.5 wide size Addiction Walker 2 Velcro. Sometimes on my right foot the shoe feels slightly narrow by the area where toes meet the foot. But I love these shoes! Have been only wearing these shoes for 10 years +. Wear them daily.

Overall shoe very stiff, may loosen up with wear. Leather feels more like plastic than leather. Not the comfortable walker I used to buy. I have only worn the shoes twice, however, as I said they may loosen and become more comfortable with more wear. I wear an 11.5 shoe with medium width. These are a bit tight in the toe box. Also need a shoe horn to get them on.
My suggestion, go back to your old design.

These shoes were just what I for hoped for, except they squeaked. I contacted Brooks, and they suggested I unlace them and let them air out for 24 hrs. It didn't help, so 'm returning them.

Love! They do not need to be broken in they are sooo comfortable from Day 1. I love that they can be used for exercise or also for a casual stroll. I'll be taking them on my Europe trip.

Did not fit particularly well and is not especially comfortable, compared to older versions that I have bought over the years. In addition, these shoes make a terrible squeaking noise when you walk, and it's not worth waiting to see if the noise fades with time. I returned them.

Great shoe. I wear 10.5 N, which is hard to find. I also have to put a lift on the left shoe, which works on this shoe. I have them in black and white, about 3 pairs each, for winter and summer. Thank you

Great shoe, just a little too stiff and confining. It's a great shoe for the person who wants absolutely no movement within the shoe. Fit was accurate. I wear a 10.5 N in dress shoes, but in this brand, I'm an 11 N or M in this brand. Narrow would have been too tight.

I have had purchased Brooks Walker before. These shoes were truly a disappointment. It is not a show that I would walk five miles in like my previous Brooks walker. It's totally far from the mark of a good walking shoe. The shoes did not make my feet happy. I need happy feet to walk.

I have incredibly flat feet. At work, I wear Dankos pro lites, the only shoes that seem to work. But for walking, I obviously need something more secure. Enter the walking addictions. Are they stylish? No. Do they support my feet in all the right ways while getting a walk in? Absolutely. I almost love how ugly they are - I probably won't be wearing them out, so they'll last for my walks. I bought the black and since I'm in-between sizes (8.5 -9) I went with the larger size, since that is which reviewers recommended. Glad I did. I found the medium width adequate for my feet (which also feature a protruding bump below the small toes on each side.) I don't require an orthotic so I can't speak on those with these shoes. For me, they're great as is. Can't loose with Zappos. If they're not what you're needing, send em back!
