I brought 2 pair and they last about 6 months, they stopped giving military discounts, so Nobull does give military discounts . Brooks are the only shoe company that does support the military veterans

Been wearing the Beast for many years (more than 10) mainly for walking and daily use. They are the absolute best shoes if you need support. Before finding the beat I tried a lot of shoes due to foot pain and now the Beast has made walking fun again. My only comment about the new models is the top of the toe box needs to be larger and have more protection because men have strong toe nails.

This was my first order with these guys I love the shoes extremely comfortable but the materials are terrible I've barely had these a month and they are tearing apart on the floor inside and I don't run these are just daily walking for the price I thought the materials would hold up to basic walking

Because I'm a Clydesdale (190 lbs) I thought the Beast would be beneficial. Although it does have guide rails which add to stability it is sorely lacking in cushion. Felt like I was running on plyboard cutouts on my 3 mile test run. Chose to run the Napa Marathon in my GLS 22s, which had 500 training miles on them but still have ample cushion. The Beast also drove my big toes into the side of the toebox. I returned them.

I have worn these before and currently wearing a pair about 5 months old. I like this shoe because it has a thick sturdy sole which gives me the support I need. Very comfortable for me to wear theses Brooks Beast all day.
I'd also recommend:
Danner Boots have been my best.

This was my sixth and last pair of beasts. They are very comfortable shoes, but I scuffed the fabric on the toe, and it ripped. I thought they should be able to stand a little rubbing without hurting the material. I will keep wearing them because functionally they are great, unfortunately they don't look too good.

I always buy and wear Brooks. These are probably the most comfortable ones yet. Tons of shock absorption. I'm on my feet all day and lift heavy objects. My feet don't hurt at the end of the day. I wear a size 13m.

The fit is great. Generally I buy the black ones they are my walking shoes. I have inserts that are made for me so I like well supported shoes that have room for my inserts which these do. I also like a lot of toe room which this shoe is great. The grey ones seem to be a bit bigger than the black ones.

Maybe a 5 star over a little time. Senior citizen review. Felt a little too snug compared to current same shoe, size and width (i.e. it's a Beast '20 also). It was just time for a replacement of the same shoe (about a year old). I'm a walker, not a jogger/runner. BUT, this has been a wonderful shoe in the past and expect it to loosen and feel like my old same shoe in short time. This is my third pair of Beast '20 and have been using the earlier versions for at least 5 years. Size 14 4E ...not one of the selections in this review.

My third Brooks order, first Beast ‘20 order. Ordered a 9.5 4E. Left shoe was impossible to put on. It’s as if it were a half size narrower. The right shoe slipped right on after loosening the laces a bit.

Great shoe! I've been wearing these since 1992 when I was going thru the academy. Great support! I've never had a problem with any of the Brooks Beast I've bought!

By far, the most comfortable, best fitting and longest lasting shoes I've ever owned. I am a nurse by trade, and on my feet quite a bit. I'm also a 6' tall, 280lb guy. The insoles of the Beasts are like no other insole I have been able to find. I wish I could buy the Beast insoles separately, but apparently, those are in "short supply" like everything else in the world today. Beasts are recognized by the APMA for promoting good foot health, and certified by PDAC as a diabetic shoe. They're made to last and provide comfort and support along the way. A+

I have worn brooks sneakers for years. This is my first time ordering beast. I hate these shoes so much. My feet hurt after I wear them. Also I had to buy a shoehorn to put them on because the backs of the shoes fall into themselves. And they did that since the first day. I wish I could return these immediately.

Just not a good personal overall fit and feel. Not as comfortable/supportive as the Adrenalin. Will definitely go with a different model.

The shoes are made wide all over. Finding another pair as wide and as comfortable may not be possible. This is the second pair I purchased, as they are my new favorite shoes.
