I ordered my regular size, 8.5 W, but it wasn?t wide enough. I returned it and ordered Dyad which is a little roomier.

The feel less sturdy than the last pair I bought. The fit is fine and they are comfortable.

Have been buying a new pair every three months, Have a very narrow foot. The leather stretches out quickly. This new design uses the same lacing idea that the SAS extra narrow walker does. The SAS shoe did not work, could not help but walk right out of the shoe after a half hour. This might begin to happen with the Walker II. Then I might have to try New Balance who uses a 'last' that is not friendly to my feet. I wish I was born with wide feet. Time will tell.

I bought these shoes because they were suppose to be the best walking shoe for plantar fasciitis. I have been wearing them now for several weeks with no real improvement, so I am a bit disappointed. They were pricey but I thought it would be worth it to get rid of walking pain. Was going to contact brooks for a possible price adjustment.

I returned the shoes, they were to tight. I believe I need a size Med. Hope you can make the change in a med size and a neutral color. Thank you again.

I think the shoe size runs small. Or the design is such that it pushes my toes to the front of the shoe. Other than that they are comfortable.

My feet often hurt. I bought the wide , but had to buy the widest width later. It hasn't helped. The balls of my feet hurt constantly, because the padding has thinned so much from walking on them for years as a nurse. My podiatrist recommended Brooks, so I got them. I used to wear Brooks, when I could afford them, but I also wore orthotics. I wear an insert the Dr gave me, but it doesn't help. I've been disappointed with Brooks shoes for a while. The last pair I wore, a different style, wore out in the front toe after only a few weeks wearing them. I think your quality & value have gone down quite a bit.

The product was well made, however, I had to return it. After not having plantar fasciitis for more than 6 months, I had a flare-up after wearing these shoes for 2 days.

The fit seems large and the shoe is heavier than I expected.

They seem to be wearing very quickly. I suffer from supination and purchased these shoes because of the roll bar and they claim to assist with they. I haven't even had the shoes for a month yet. However, they are comfortable.

I have worn this walking sneakers for many years. I bought a new pair recently and noticed it had a new cut. It's narrower than the old style and are too short. My big toe never hit in the old pairs but they do in this one. I can't wear them long during the day and won't buy them again. Sorry.

I am still not sure about the shoe, it does not feel good walking around the house in. I am looking for a winter shoe that I can walk in. This is a size a 11 and the left foot does not seem right.

This new version does not fit like the last one. I love the last version of the addiction walker, but the new one hurts my feet. It's a well made shoe, but just can't wear it; disappointed.

I like the original Addiction Walker better. Seems I'm between sizes in this Addiction 2 - ordered a size larger than I'm used to and it was still too short, and the Narrow that I'm used to was too tight. Ordered the next size up in a regular width and it's a bit too long, and feels a bit stiff/hard where my instep meets my heel. I've put inserts under the Brooks insert, which has helped with the fit, but they're still not quite right. I'm keeping them because I haven't been able to find anything else I like in a white leather walking shoe, but I'm disappointed compared to the way I used to feel about the Addiction Walker, particularly for the price. If you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

These don't last as long as they used to, especially the soles. The sizing is a little shorter, and I really miss the beige color. They're still better than some of the others, though.

I think I will like them after I have had a chance to wear them for a while. I have had other Brooks shoes and have liked them. That is why I decided to try the walkers.

These are not nearly as comfortable as my Adrenaline 18. Brooks Running, PLEASE, PLEASE, make Adrenaline in size 5.5 AA. I only ordered this pair of Addiction Walker because they were the only ones available in my size.

I thought these would be comfortable to work in because I do a lot of walking but they are not very comfortable the inside are hard and don't have that soft insole like the other brooks.

I have worn Brooks Addiction Walkers for decades; it has been an automatic reorder for me. This time around I had no choice but to order the Addiction Walker 2, and I am sad to say that I must find another shoe. It simply does not have the support that the previous AW gave my feet. The resulting twinges in my feet after an hour of exercise have sent me back to my (very worn out) old pair. I hope that I can connect with another brand soon. I give these Addiction 2 shoes a 3-rating because they are probably better than many other shoes, but unsatisfactory for me compared to the original Addiction Walker.
