Customer Reviews Brooks Beast '20

excellent support really alleviates knee/back pressure

I have had the Beast 14, 16, 18, and now the 20. The beast is the only shoe I can wear without my custom orthotics because they are so supportive (I have very flat wide feet). The 14 model has always been my favorite....until the BEAST 20 came out! I was hesitant about the lighter weight worrying they sacrificed support but honestly they are just as supportive if not more and very comfortable. The style is also vastly improved without the bulky look of older beast models. I liked them so much I bought a pair in both colors for the gym and every day wear. Thank you Brooks for making amazing products!!! Only thing that would be nice is if they made the Beast in more colors that were a little more stylish. This is the only shoe I wear so more options would be great.

Very comfortable shoe for my callous heels & well worth the price. I?ve been wearing the ?Beast? for 5 years and I will be a lifetime buyer of this particular shoe.

Comfortable right out of the box as always. I no longer run so I can't comment on running performance. Love the styling! Great support.

Not a runner. I'm a bartender and these help me a lot with all the stop and go and twist and turn

Great shoes, heavy but the best support

I bought this shoe because my primary doctor, who is herself a long-distance runner, recommended them. And so far I couldn't be happier. I was starting to develop plantar fasciitis, and within a couple of days, my symptoms all but disappeared. Thanks for making such a great product.

I have worn Brooks since 1978, and have always worn The Beast, great shoe, can't say enough about it. Can one buy the cushion support insoles separately?

Felt great the minute I put it on. Runs true to size(10). Changed from the new Addition, in the earlier 12 and below they seemed small and I went to 10 1/2, the 14 was true to size and too large and soft. Love the Beast. I hope it has durability built into the new price.

4x width are hard to find. Especially when you are a overpronator. Thanks Brooks!

Great shoes!!! Have two pairs!!

I absolutely love the Beast. I have been wearing the Beast for the last 6 yrs. They keep my knees feeling better. I do not run but do a lot of beachbody workouts and these work great. I wish there were more colors to choose from.

I have plantar fasciitis. I feel less pain on my heel and felt less tired than before. I wear the shoe for walking and standing.

Best running shoe for a big man with flat feet!

Great foot support in a comfortable walking, running shoe.

Comfortable! Great for walking long distances.

Best walking shoe ever! I highly recommend. Great service & service personnel are Awsome!

I have used this shoe for 35 years. I have tried other ones, and I don't even bother now. It is simply a fabulous shoe.

To be fair, I don't use these shoes exclusively for Running. I have used many other book shoes for trail running etc., but I am an orthopedic surgeon, and use the issues mainly for long periods of standing in the operating room. They have an increased cushion, which is fairly firm, and it significantly reduces the fatigue and strain on my lower extremities. I've been very happy with the shoes, compared with others, and so far have not shown any signs of wear after many 10+ hour days in them.From a professional standpoint, and Brooks shoes have much more support than most other brands, and have a much longer lifespan.
