My husband was very happy with them. They are very cushy and supportive. He ordered another pair.

The shoes is are fantastic , I would say these pairs are the best for my feet. The only thing I can say we need more attractive styles or colors. I notice it limited on selection. I'm ready to buy more for different outfits; I can only do so much with three colors.

Buy half size up and a 2E version if you have flat and wide feet as me and you won't regret! I walk 3 miles everyday on these, they are super comfy! loads of support and cushion.

Shoes are normally a problem for me. I am 66 yo, female and wear a 14D. This is my second year with Brooks. I brought my new shoes with me to get orthopedic inserts due to stress fractures in my metatarsals. The doctor was openly praising the quality of the shoes I had chosen.

These shoes were recommended after a complete foot and running motion exam at the FBI Academy 19 years ago. Unequivocally, the best running shoes I've ever worn. Support and comfort exceptional. Makes running enjoyable!! If you have flat feet and over-pronate, this shoe is for you!!

The shoe is great, however, the price is too high. Brookes never puts the Beast on sale. All their other shoes are put on sale, however, there is never a sale on the Beast unless they are coming out with a new release and then there MAY be a sale. Why is that???

Everything is fine. Just like the two generations of Beasts I bought before it. But the color (gray) and (lack of) style make it look like an old man's shoe. Of course, I am an old man, but previous beasts almost looked cool. My favorite is the black and red pair from two generations ago.

I like the feel of them, but I did like the gray bottom layer from the last version better than the all white bottoms of this generation.

I don't like them nearly as much as the Beast 18. The back over the ankle is weak. I especially don't care for the white sole. The get dirty too easily. Previous versions of the Beast have been awesome for me. One of the best shoes I have ever had. I still have 2 pairs of the Beast 18 that are my favorite.

I have worn the Beast for years. I am a big guy that wears them for walking. New model is more comfortable than ever with the stability I need, with the only criticism being the back of the shoe is more comfortable, but lacks structure making them a bit of a hassle to put on. I was also disappointed that I could not get the shoe at my local running store and use the gift card I had been given for them...was told they couldn't get them, but did order them for me from Brooks (but couldn't use the GC).

After seven months my big toe starts to come through the fabric. In another two months there will be a half inch hole. The shoes may last a year, but with a hole with my big tow poking through. I will be looking for an equivalent shoe without the hole. The blue shoe pictured is 7 months old. Hole is starting to show. The grey shoe was used 10 months.

I order everything for my husband, and he wears between 16-16.5 shoe and wide. Very hard to find this size. Zappos is our go to store for his shoes. He wasn't sure if these were quite long enough, so work around the office for a day. They were very comfortable and he is keeping them. Very happy to find his BIG feet something stylish! Thanks Zappos for carrying BIG foot sizes and wides..much appreciated!!!
