Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

I walk around four miles a day on average and have worn Brooks Addiction Walkers for the past four years. I guess the powers that be at Brooks decided to abandon their loyal following for the sturdy, stable, reliable original and transform it into a glorified sneaker that might be suitable for a younger audience but is wholly inadequate for the senior crowd. Version 2 is wobbly, bouncy and insubstantial by comparison. And the narrow is so wide in the toe area that my foot began cramping, as I had to tighten my muscles to achieve stability while walking. If the company has not destroyed the tooling for the original model, I hope they'll consider producing it again. In the meantime, I'm defecting to New Balance for my next attempt to find a suitable walker.

They feel good I add power step insoles in the shoes cause I'm on my feet alot and it helps with my arch support

My feet suffer terribly from overpronation, bunions, hammertoes and osteoarthritis in my feet, and the only shoes I could wear for years and I chose beige. However, Brooks no longer offers its Addiction Walker in beige -- they only offer black and white. i refuse to wear white shoes which only makes my already troubled feet stand out. The other Addiction Walkers offered are made of perforated suede which does not give as much support to my feet. This year, I'm going with New Balance 928 v3 in beige.

The fit was great. I’ve been getting 11’s and the toe’s were pinching down onto my big toe. When my husband suggested I get 1/2 size bigger to allow for my inserts I put in I did and the fit is great! No pinching of my toes, and they are great!!!

I will always keep buying these shoes. I love how comfortable they feel. I have co-workers that buy these same shoes and they say the same as me. So much comfort and stability at work. I hope I can always get these shoes
