I ordered the same size and width, 12 2E Beast, and it was too short and too narrow.
The previous shoe, Beast 18, 12 2E, was much more roomy and comfortable.
I will try to find a size larger in the same shoe at a store to try on.

It was great except that the toe wore through after about a month. I transitioned them to my yard work shoes since they are comfortable

I've been running in Brooks shoes for over 20 years. Brooks running shoes are very comfortable and feel better on my feet than other brands of running shoes. I like the Beast because it is supportive and well cushioned. I also like that a few years ago, Brooks made the Beast a little lighter than earlier models.

Comfortable and light weight. Only issue is that each step produces a very notable squeak.

I've worn the beast for nearly fifteen years do to needed support for severe flat foot. It is the only sneaker that will properly support my feet along with orthotics.
Can't find them in stores and my wife found them. Being on my feet all day requires me to keep the sneaker on.

Best supporters shoot for my pronated, flat feet on the market and best cushioning. Needs new colors update for 2023.

They're OK but I miss the support of the 2014 model. These tend to wear out quickly. Still a good shoe.

This shoe has been extremely comfortable from first putting them on. Good support and excellent cushioning. I am not developing hurtful callouses like I was in my previous Nike running shoes.

Very comfortable shoe with one exception. I have worn size 10 for years. This shoe for whatever reason is built a shorter than my Beast 14 or my New Balance 840V's. It was pinching my toes a little so when I held it up to my other 2 running shoes, I did see it was actually shorter by about 3/8 of an inch. The great people at RoadRunner swapped them out for me no problem. I went a half size longer. I was also expecting a roomier toe box but since my foot is not real wide, I am a D they should be fine. One point for those of you that are used to Brooks Beast model is that these are lighter than prior models. I am looking forward to a long life with these like I had with my Beast 14's.

This is my 10th pair of Brooks Beast, and they all have been good shoes; I expect my newest pair to be the same way. The shoes were delivered on time, and were of good quality, so far as I can tell now.

I have old time runners knee in my left knee because I tend to overpronate my left foot. These shoes keep my foot nice and stable and comfortable. No knee pain. I'm an old guy and just go out walking the dogs for 45 minutes each day, but it's nice to be able to do that, and it's because of the shoes that I can.
