I am disappointed in this shoe and had concerns that it was a knockoff. it seems to be more "plastic like" and not leather. As a nurse working long hours, I have worn the addiction shoe for almost 25 years, so have had many pairs. I feel like my feet sweat more in these than the other addiction shoes I have had, except for the runners. Perhaps I need to go back to the running shoe. That does not feel as if it offers as much support, as =in prior addictions.

I bought 2 pair because I loved the way the old version fit and felt. They fit differently than the previous version. I had to return and get a different size. They are not as comfortable either. Maybe I shouldve got an even bigger size and bought insoles

I was skeptical when ordering because I had so much luck with the first Addiction Walker, however I am happy to report these work great. I work in healthcare and I am on my feet 10-12 hours a day. Due to heel spurs I wear an arch support, and need a wide shoe and toe box to accommodate it. They fit me fine, no break in period. I'm ordering another pair today!

This shoe runs shorter than previous versions. Wish I had ordered 1/2 size bigger. Hurts my toes.

I really like them! They are a little lighter in weight than the originals. Same size and fit.

Feels good on my daily walk but looks really clunky, more so than my original Addiction Walker.

The shoe is more stylish than previous model, but Addiction 2 is too spongy and the heel slips. I think the main problem is the squashy new inner sole. The support just isn't there. Had to return. Please bring back original Addiction. ...which is a fabulous walking shoe.
I'd also recommend:
Only wear Brooks athletic shoes!

I love my Addiction Walker 2, I buy these every year. You have to buy a half size larger than your normal shoe size because they are made smaller, plus I order D wide. These are the only shoes that help me with Plantar Faciatis. Very satisfied with quality of the show.

Was hoping that the TOP of the shoe would be redesigned... the back part was fine.. I tried the Addiction Walker 2 and they seemed to have a different "fit" so I returned them.. thanks... joan

I love them. I think the tread is much better. I would still like to have Brooks use this footbed in a hiking/high top version to wear on rainy or snowy days. Thanks!

The shoe is an excellent fit . It has space for my orthotics.. it is very comfortable, and I never had to "break" them in!!! I have some different issues with my feet but these shoes are comfortable all day long!

Not as much support on the outside of the foot as the original. I'll need to buy the original and just throw these away.

I have been wearing these shoes for over 20 years-it has been the only shoe I found that was comfortable on my foot --no longer the case. It feels like they changed the cushioning inside and lowered the toe area so it is no longer comfortable. They also squeak when I walk. Very disappointed. Not sure how I am going to replace them.

Addition to my previous review. Tried to make these work. But, as said before, the heel slips and the shoes seem too large. Importantly, I'm adding a note about the inner sole....which seems to be the major problem because it is spongy and bouncy - much different than the original Addiction. Just doesn't work. Very disappointed.

Loving these Finally found a white leather sneaker that works with my orthotics ! It?s cute too! The toe box is little on the narrow side for an EE but not a deal breaker. the narrow heel is perfect. Keepers!
