I have multiple pairs in black and gray. That speaks to what I think of the shoe. All fit well but buyers might want to know that the gray shoe is consistently a bit wider than the black shoe. If that matters you might want to consider that during your purchase.

Ok, so I'm not really a runner -- I'm old enough that my knees can't handle it anymore, but I do power walking at least 3 miles a day. The Beast '20 is absolutely the most comfortable shoe I've tried, and that includes my venerable (and VERY well used) Beast '16s. The fit is awesome, but I strongly recommend that you follow Brooks sizing advice & order 1/2 size larger than your normal size. I couldn't read the tag on my perfectly fitting 16s, so I guessed a 10. The shoe fit well, but toes are extremely close to the front of the toe box -- great for casual wearing, but not so good for exercise, so I ended up ordering a second pair 1/2 size bigger and they're perfect!

This has been my one and only running shoe since 1990. In the old days I'd go through 2-3 pair a year. Nowadays 1 pair lasts 2-3 years. Great running shoes, saved my knees.

I am not a runner. i have had both knees and both hips replaced. These shoes are vital for my comfort and support. I am a PE teacher and I average over 20,000 steps a day. The Beast are a must for me.

These are the best pair of shoes I've ever bought. I've had problems with foot pain my whole life but these shoes allow me to get through an 8 hour workday where I'm on my feet the entire time.

Love this shoe, it is the 3rd one I have ordered. I use them for my 5-7 mile walks with my dogs . They are comfortable and very supportive. I walk 3-5 times a week, so I do wear them out after 9 months or so. I hope they never stop making this one.

I am a woman who has to order a man's shoe for size & width. The Brooks BEAST is a perfect fit for me & I have been wearing them for years, I wish Brooks made the BEAST in more colors and larger women's sizes.

Absolutely love the Beast. I have severe planter fasciitis and the Beast has been the only shoe that I can comfortably wear all day long.

I have exclusively purchased many pairs of Beasts for many years for their max support. I won't buy another shoe.

I first ordered this shoe in size 13 that I normally wear other Brooks models. They were too small. I returned the pair and ordered a size 14. These fit great. I don't run but walk aggressively and the shoe initially seemed to affect my stride. It seemed like my heel was striking the ground too soon. After a few walks this feeling went away and I find they are very comfortable to walk in. I am 70 years old and have joint issues: knees, hips and low back. These shoes seem to help, or at least do not aggravate these issues.

Very comfortable. Works great on my fallen arches. Really, really insipid but aspirational name though. "The Beast" shoud be called "The Old Guy."

Got these for my BF he's 6ft, 230lbs and he says he likes these shoes so far. He's had them for about two weeks and sometimes wears them to work too. He said they took his foot pain away so I'm guessing they're good. Hope this helps

Best shoe for runners with over pronation. The pain relief in my knees after changing to the Beast 10 years ago has been drastic.
