I usually love Brooks, I've owned dozens of pairs, these however I will be returning. The heel cup is too low and my footstrike in these has given me a very new to me phenomenon of plantar fasciitis. Not saying they are bad, just don't work for me

I've seen lots of reviews saying they are not as good as the original Addiction Walker. So far I can't tell the difference. I'm glad they run small because when I get the bigger size my orthotic insole fits perfect. Need to make more walkers instead of all runners.

They don't seem to have the support as the 1st Addition Walker which I'd been buying for years. My feet are sore when I get home. They also squeak when you walk.

Fits great the only issue is I thought they were leather like my old shoes. Didnt find out till I recieved them they weren't. But still very comfortable

The fit and support were excellent. I have been wearing Brooks and only Brooks for many years at the recommendation of my doctor.

When the shoes were delivered, I immediately opened the box to look at the sneakers. Much to my surprise they were not new, with the shoelaces tied, the back heel slightly dirty and with minor scuff marks.

I am getting a replacement as the 8 medium size came in like a narrow 7. It is my constant go-to shoe. It has never come in miss-sized before, probably someone put the wrong label on. I have Ehlers Danlos and Lipidedema so I need the stability of this shoe. I wear a white and black pair yearly.

This is my second pair of this shoe. The first has been wonderful for stability which helps control complications from hip and knee arthritis. I would have rated this show 5 stars based on my experience with the first pair, but, the second pair feels a bit shorter in the toe. Because my foot is wide in front and narrow at the heel, I feared the next size up would be to loose on my ankle.so my plan is wear only thin socks and keep the size I ordered. Others may want to consider ordering a half size up.

I'm flat-footed. Brooks addiction enables me to walk all day pain-free.

Super duper white - but they'll get dirty soon enough and tone down. I wish they were all leather, but they are not. Would be nice if they had some vents or hikes for breathability. I'll put up with those cons for the support and comfort. Really great- I usually wear 8 1/2 wide- I got a size 9 and have a great amount of wiggle room for my toes which is what I wanted. It's nicely built up in the arch area and the soles have a wider footprint through the instep which gives me confidence walking on different surfaces - grass, pavement and trail.

Shoes came in a box which was not correct size for what I ordered. Shoes inside exhibited the correct size and width but felt a full size too small. In addition the shoes looked like they had been worn, the laces looked twisted as if they'd been previously tied. There were small stones imbedded in the soles which looked like the shoes had been worn out of doors.
I still would like to have the Brooks Addiction Walkers 2 in the correct size which would likely be an 11 wide, but Zappos only offered me smaller sizes.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance

Have worn Brooks Addiction Walkers for years and prefer them to any other shoe for my feet, particularly because I use orthotics. I think they are now running a bit smaller so I ordered a half size larger and it works fine. So far, no foot pain when I walk. Also ordered the same shoe in white but stuck with my regular size and use a less cushioned sock. I would like to loosen up both colors in the ball of the foot for more toe room. One thing I really like about the white pair is that the soles are now non-slip unlike my previous pair which could slip on smooth surfaces.

Solid shoe for heavy walking. Provides stability and supports balance. A huge plus for those with narrow feet.

I LOVE these shoes! I wear them everyday with so many outfits! I'm a college track athlete and need extra supportive shoes to walk around in during season when my legs hurt and these have been perfect! Do not change anything and keep producing this shoe! I will keep buying!
