Looked for a max support option. Good for overpronators. However, found the toe box construction (of my pair anyway) uncomfortable. The area where the material connects to the front tip of the sole gathers a bit, which caused the interior lining to warp after a couple weeks of use. The denting rubs against the toes making them uncomfortable to wear for any long period of time. They've become a backup to a backup.

Great walking shoes for people that don't run, but walk for fitness. Great support and an all around great fit! Love the development in the "Beast" line

I've been wearing Beast's for the last 5 years, for general daily use plus AT section hikes, and now my 2022 NoBo AT thru-hike...2200 miles.
For my thru-hike, each pair lasted 400-500 miles which is pretty average for any type AT thru-hike shoes. These shoes performed incredibly well in all weather and terrain conditions. They were grippy on wet rocks, dried quickly, provided good support and comfort. The point of failure with every pair was the upper separating from the sole along each side of the toe box.
I will continue wearing these daily plus for future hikes.

I have owned Brooks Beast shoes for quite some time, and several iterations. I got going with them after I was diagnosed as an over-pronator by a running shoe shop. When I started looking for some replacements, I was initially concerned that the line had been replaced and I was going to have to find what the "new" line was that had the same characteristics. After shopping a bit, I ended up at the Brooks flagship store, where, amazingly they still had the last version tagged as "Beast". They fit and work just as they always did, so I'm delighted that I spent the time to find them!

I really like the Beast. Great support and wears well. They really helped with my tendinitis and plantar fasciitis. Highly recommend.
The only nit I would add is that the laces are too short. I use a heel lock and there's just barely enough. Can you lengthen them in the future?

I have been wearing the Beast for over 10 years now. This shoe is the only way I am able to run due to my flat feet. Thank you!!

I like that the fit is reliable. I can just go online or into the store and ask for the proper size and width and be confident the fit is seem less.

I wear the Beast at the recommendation of my podiatrist. I have severe foot problems with pes planus and degeneration of my ankle joints secondary to pronation. I have had multiple surgeries including partial fusion of my left ankle and find that the orthotics fit easily into the Beast and the support helps to keep me going all day long. This is my daily shoe.

My 2nd-time wearinllg these shoes, my left big-toe came out very bruised, especially under the nail. To the point that I might lose that toe-nail. As this is not my 1st-pair of Brooks running shoes, I'm disappointed with that.

Very surprised! Have ordered this exact size/style previously. This pair was a definite change. Felt smaller in toe box of one shoe. Compressed feel under soles too.

I have been running in the Brooks Beast since it first came out in the early 90's. Long past time for Brooks to update the colors, seems like they haven't changed in years.

This is the ultimate for street running it has the best support for high mileage and helps stabilize your landing, along with a great cushion. I never run with anything else since 2000 it saved me and enabled me to complete my training for the NYC 2000 marathon - never have been without since.
