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.

Not as comfortable as I had hoped. I need more arch support

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.

I think I was hoping for more of a cushion type of walk... they are not horrible, I'm just use to the Beast and these are different

I enjoy that they are motion control and come in wide sizes but I wish there were more colors to choose from.
I bought two pair about 2 months ago and they are already separating at the toe.

They are comfortable. I have a normal width foot but my toe bed area is wider and heal narrow. I wear a size 8 to 8.5 depending on shoe style. I ordered a 9 in this shoe as recommended on your site. My toes still seem a bit squished, making them less comfortable. I guess I should order a 9.5 but that seems really big.

I have worn Brooks Addiction Walkers for years. I was really looking forward to the new version. After wearing the new Addiction Walker 2 for a couple months I really wish that I could still order the first version. I ordered several pairs of version 2. Too small, too big. Wore one pair for two months. They look like I have worn them for years rather than months. Second pair is holding up better but not the quality of the Addiction Walker 1 version. I like the better tread on the soles. Sorry but that is about the only thing that is better. Please work on version 3 and please make a better quality product. I depend on these shoes and wear them every day. After years of depending on Brooks for comfort and fit and quality I just hate to change brands and find a better made shoe.

The toe box is too narrow. The last pair I bought was wider and did not crowd my toes.

This is about my 5th pair of Addiction Walkers, all the same size. These new ones felt fine in the beginning, but after about a week my toes were hurting because they seemed too short. I called and traded for a half size larger and now they seem okay for size. I liked the quality of the leather on all the previous ones better than on these. Does not seem as durable. But I'm grateful for Brooks' policy of being able to exchange them for up to 90 days without charge. Hope you continue making great shoes!

I wore these through four years of nursing school. Then I handed them down to a student. They are extremely comfortable.
