Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

I loved the roominess of the Wide option. Two things I really disliked - the weight of the shoes, they're heavy and have zero cushion! Which I thought was odd because they're "Walking shoes" and you would think those two specific things shouldn't be an issue.

It's comfortable but very clutsy looking.

I am a huge brooks fan, it's all I have run in for the last 6 years. So when I needed a comfortable, all-day shoe for nursing school, they were the obvious choice. I chose the Addiction Walker because of the boasted support, slip resistance and meeting the dress code requirements. While they are slip resistant and hold up well to water etc (hence the second star), they are so uncomfortable that I can't wear them, even after several weeks of trying. They seem to be angled in a way they tilt my feet forward so my toes are crammed and my heels have a big gap - I find myself hitting my heal on the ground to shift my foot back in shoe. Also, whatever the support is, it's not arch support, my arches ache badly after just a few hours of wear. Finally, there is an odd tightness at the top of my foot, doesn't matter how I adjust the tightness of the laces.

Very comfortable upper but it's the hardest shoe I have ever worn!

Awful shoe runs small, heavy, leather makes my foot sweat all the time. Not flexible Sorry I purchased them.

Too small. Been waiting 2 weeks for return label to be mailed. Return labels should be included. At least with a first time purchase. No printer

These shoes squeak terribly. And, this is not the first pair with this problem that did not exist in older pairs. Returned them all.

The shoes feels bulky and heavy when going on a long walk. I am not sure if I will keep them yet.

These shoes squeak. The tongue needs to be something besides leather.

Shoes squeak constantly when I walk. The leather material does not move well with my feet. Need larger selection of narrow widths. Prefer the Ghost 14 pairs of shoes I have had before even though I am NOT a runner.

I thought they would have a higher arch as in adrenaline. Not happy with these. Even thinking of returning them.

This Brooks wasn?t for me. First try on felt great but the longer the shoe stayed on, the tighter the toe bed became to the point I couldn?t wait to get the shoe off. It may have been due to the leather and lack of any air flow and my feet swelling slightly while walking? Not sure but I had to return them. Brooks?s great return policy will keep me buying their shoes!

These do not work for me. Very bulky and were too big. That's the problem with ordering online. they are not carried in local stores. However, I am wearing Adrenalin GTS22 in wide and LOVE THEM. Introduced and fitted at Canyon Ranch Tucson. Ordered a second pair online from Brooks as soon as I returned home. Now waiting for the new version to arrive soon, I hope

The original Addiction Walkers fit perfectly. I'm not able to wear these at all. So sorry to not be able to bc I loved my old ones!

I need a narrow width very hard to find for any shoe today. It looks big on my feet, but that is my 11 1/2 shoe size. Please keep making it as it fits perfectly. JMB

I bought these shoes for my wife and she did not like them. She said that they were too heavy and resulted in knee pain, so we returned them. The return policy is very flexible so I certainly appreciate the guaranteed satisfaction policy. I have purchased other Brooks running shoes and I'm very satisfied.
