I am soooo disappointed in this shoe. It is not nearly as well made as the former style and already has a hole where the top tie is. The former style was well enough made that I could wear it comfortably for work, for church or for hiking... It fit all occasions. The striped sides on this one don't work as well. It was dressier in style than this one. The old ones had a strong piece for that tie that never ripped. I have gotten bruises where this one cuts in under my ankle bone. They also squeak when I walk. I have looked all over the internet for a pair of the former ones but none exist. I have purchased 3 pairs a year for many years and they always fit well and were comfortable and lasted, and now I have to search for a new shoe from another brand. I would come back to Brooks if you brought the old style back. I spoke with my podiatrist and he told me many of his patients are not satisfied with them either. I stumbled on this review by accident and felt Hopeful in writing it that you would bring back the former style. Thank you for listening.

Be better if they could have air holes
On the inside of both shoes, I took mine to shoe repair guy to get air holes put in them .

I have he'll Spurs and work seven hour days on my feet these shoes work so well for my needs. The only down fall is the price. I'd like to replace them every3 months just to insure the best comfort but can't afford that.

I am disappointed that the shoe has changed to much. It has to much room in the hills that I have to lace them tight. There is no cushion in the tongue so I have developed a sore and burns from the rubbing. I have been buying them for years but I am looking at other brands to replace this shoe. I am not happy with the changes made to the shoe.

I have ordered two pairs of these shoes every year since I developed plantar fasciitis in 2015. I have custom insoles that have worked great for years. I am grateful to be able to order them and not have to go shopping every time I need shoes. I wear no other shoes!!

I had read previous reviews so I sized up 1/2 size when I ordered and they fit great. I use orthotics so there was no arch support after I remover liner until I put my orthotic in. I have worn Brooks Addiction Walker for years because it works to put my orthotics in. I do really like the new material, don't know how well it will wear yet but will try it for sure.

These shoes are wonderful. I have problem feet-they are narrow and I need a very good arch support. I use orthotics and these shoes accommodate them very well. I love when my feet feel good and they do when I wear these shoes.

I have ordered the same shoes for 4 or 5. Years. I liked the previous Addiction Walker better. I have to wear these shoes most of the time and the smooth leather looked better to me than the ridges.

These shoes run small. I normally wear a 10, but in these shoes I order a size 10.5. They fit well. I have had several pairs of the Addiction Walker. They accommodate my orthotics, and help with overpronation. They are sturdy, wear well and offer great overall support.

The narrow fit and length are good. I have had a complete ankle replacement. These shoes aren’t pretty, but have great stability and support. With Powerstep Inserts, they are the only shoes I ever buy.

A big disappointment! I have worn these sneakers for years, replacing each year as I am a daily walker. This pair has too wide of a toe area, I buy the narrow, plus the support is not good. My feet hurt after an few hours. They are not the comfortable walking shoes of the past.

This is the first shoe I will reorder soon, as it has a wide enough toebox that my feet did not have to break them in. They were flawless.
I will probably buy another pair soon.

They are so comfortable and my feet do not hurt after standing on my feet during my clinical rotations in nursing school. I did have to purchase a 1/2 sizer bigger because they seem to run small.

Absolutely love them-don't change a thing! They give me the support I need, while also having just the right amount of cushioning to be comfortable, and the toebox area is much appreciated!
