The shoes fit well. I have been wearing the Brooks Beast model for several years and find this is the best shoe for me. I have tried several other brands along with other Brooks models and have determined that the Beast has the durability, features, and wearability I require.

30 years ago bought brooks beasts at the recommendation of an orthopeidic surgeon for treatment of pantar faciitis ("Scotty Pippen disease") and have bought another pair every one/two years since. Perfect in all respects. Never have experienced another related foot problem.

The Brooks Beast 20 in charcoal, red & white is a beautiful shoe! It’s structural support for my over pronation is very good. Deep groove bottom traction is spot on. My 4th pair of The Beast shoes and loving them!

Fit was true to size. Bought this shoe for the anti pronating feature. Hubby only had them a week but comfort right out of the box. Good shoes are always worth it. If your feet are not in the right position it throws the rest of your frame off. You may not be liking the price...I didn't either but what do you do. Bottom line take care of your feet - you don't know how great your feet are until something is wrong with them.

I over pronate, I am flat footed and weigh 240 pounds with past gout deformity. I am a heavy strider when I walk. The only athletic shoe on the market that I can wear. They average 300 miles or 3.5 months before needing replacement.

Bought these for my son whom is severely overweight and up until now has been sedentary. He started working cleaning movie theaters and his feet hurt every day to the point I was worried he would quit his job and give up. These have provided so much relief to him! They fit well, look stylish, and he prefers to wear these over his other shoes. Thank you, Brooks, for the Beast '20!

I had foot surgery on both feet, a fascitemy. I must now where special shoe inserts (insoles). These shoes allow me to remove the manufacturer insoles and put mine in the shoe. Additionally, I now wear out shoes really quickly and I have found the Beast version of Brooks shoes last the longest out of all the shoes I've tried. Periodically, I do try another shoe - particularly cheaper ones- and they last half or less the amount of time. This is a good shoe.

The fit and size of these shoes was perfect. They wore like iron and I just ordered another pair as I wear them every day with my orthotics and they are stable and comfortable.

The fit and sizing are wonderful! Learned of my teen child’s over pronation, and went straight to researching the best shoes and found these. My child is VERY happy! Superb in comfort, sizing, looks and functionality!

This is my second pair of Brooks Beast 20s - selected them this time in a different color. Excellent shoe, well made, and comfortable.

Been wearing Brooks shoes for years, sometimes Addiction, sometime Ghost and sometimes Beast depending on being able to find my size and width available when I need shoes. Overall Brooks quality and fit seem to be consistent and that is true for these shoes as well. I can begin wearing them right out of the box without worrying about breaking them in. I am able to put my orthotics in, no problem and go on my way. I wear these shoes for daily use and comfort, not for running.

It's a fine over-pronation running sneaker, but inferior to the old Beasts, and the sizing is off (small) by 1/2, and just sizing up by 1/2 is not the proper way to go. Also these are nowhere near the durability of the old Beasts. Overall, if you're between sizes in general, and don't mind purchasing shoes after about 150 miles, you'd like these. The drop is 10mm which gives them a nice look and you can wear them with jeans and it's ok.

Love the overall feel of the shoe. Very comfortable right out of the box. The arch support and toe room are perfect for my narrow feet. Love these shoes and will buy again.

Brooks makes great shoes.
My previous purchase was Under Armor shoes because Brooks was not available and I really regretted it.
From now on, I plan to just order Brooks
