Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction Walker 2

For many years the Addiction Walker was my only footwear but I was cautiously optomistic about the changes. The inside blue cushion is good but the sizing is off somehow - I'm usually an 8W but now my great toes hit the top/end of the shoe! 8.5s feel clunky and my orthotics slide forward. Wish some of Brooks many designers would adjust the sizing part back to the old way.

It was very comfortable but not slip resistant on a commercial kitchen floor. Wow! I went to Brooks because they make an awesome sneaker. These gave me support but could slide across a floor. I wouldn’t recommend for kitchen work.

I was worried about changes in a shoe I have worn for 15 years. They were the only shoes that don't hurt my feet. I loved the comfort of the new Brooks Addiction Walker but the toe room is too short. Unfortunately I will have to return them. I really don't think the next size will work, but I'll try because I really depend on these shoes.

Sadly too tight/small in the toe box even with the EE.

I am so glad these came back in my size. I always have 2 pairs as I walk to work in these almost everyday.

This shoe size 8 is the exact same length as my older 7.5 Brooks leather walker - so I have to return - since my foot grew. I also do not like the insert - the arch is too high - good arch support does not means it supports your arch, but does not mean it is so high that it hurts and your arch is support your body weight. I called and unfortunately Brooks no longer sells replacement inserts since with a different insert it could be quite a good shoe - or if you have high arches - I have average.

Tried half size larger since my regular size felt way too small. New order felt better overall, but was too large on the heel and I kept slipping out. Will return also this pair and give up on this model.

Was very disappointed about the new style, feel, and smell! It smells as if it was plastic instead leather. Okay, I know it's not a stylish shoe but why making it worse that the original shoe was? However, I return this shoe for a larger size and try again. These shoes look gigantic! But I need to fit in orthopedics and it also seems to be the only slippery resistant shoe I can find.
