They are more than I expected. Much more comfortable than the Addiction and Adrenaline series.

Provides great support for my feet! I work in a job where I am on my feet at least 8 hours a day and so it is important to have great shoes. This is my new Go To for that.

The best "walking" shoes I've ever owned. (Have bad knees, so running is no longer an option.)

Size is good. Feel kind of stiff, heavier than my last pair. Bought them for morning walks. After a brief break-in, I think they will be comfortable and last longer than my previous pair.

The overall construction is good but there is a flaw in the design of the shoe in the back. The ankle cup is not strong enough and collapses. Can't wear the shoe

Had to return. Not the same quality as the earlier "Beast" models. A real disappointment. I've owned several "Beast" models in the past, and always found them to be exceptionally comfortable and supportive. Not so with the Beast 20.

If I could give the Beast 20 zero stars, I would. It's not the Beast anymore. It should be called something else. This shoe is no better than an Adrenaline now that the medial post has been replaced by guide rails. Guide rails destroy my feet in every shoe that has them. I've ran in Beasts for almost 2 decades, but no more. I've tried running with other shoes over the years, but have always come back to the ole reliable. Not anymore. Brooks, I know guide rails are hip for sales, but they're not anywhere near as functional. Please, do the right thing and bring back the medial post in the Beast. You've ruined running for me without it.

This is a shoe I used many years ago to good effect for racing and so went back to it now needing a bit more support. (Currently fighting off Plantar fasciitis. ) The D width is a bit snug and stylistically speaking, I don't love the white bottom. (Once dirty, always dirty) For the very high price, I hope that they last to make that pricing seem reasonable, which it currently does not. Plenty of room for my high instep, which I like. Laces could be a bit longer to accommodate that and fancy lace patterns.

I feel like the Brooks quality has gone way way way down. We will see how long this pair lasts compared to the pair I have been wearing since 2017.

I've been running in the Brooks Beast for years. Still using my Brooks Beast 18's and whatever version came before that in triathlons and training runs. Since both are probably long past due for replacement, I ordered the Beast 20s. On my FIRST run (and second wearing) of 5 miles I got a blister on the back of my right foot. Keep in mind I have never had a blister from the two previous models. I suppose I will have to find another shoe that provides maximum support (for over-pronation), since the Beast no longer appears to be an option.

The size was perfect for my husband as was the fit. He wears orthotics and can comfortably wear his orthotics in the Brooks Beast '20 sneakers. We both like the Navy blue color and are very happy with the purchase.

Please don't stop making these shoes, I have had several operations on my right foot and these shoes are the only ones that work for me . I only wish you made a hiking boot with the same technology

Most uncomfortable shoe ever. I have purchased The Beast before and they felt great. I don't know what Brooks has changed the The Beast feels completely different. I will not be purchasing Brooks shoes again.

The price keeps going up and the quality has gone down. The tow box collapses and rubs on the toes. The heel box wears out early.

Running in the Army sucks, but these finally helped with the pain and knee issues.

I husband loves these. Brooks Beast is the only running shoe that he will wear. His size is 13. Please don't stop making these in the black/gray color combo!
