Customer Reviews Brooks Beast '20

Much better design, less bulky - more modern looking.

Great support, just wish there were more colors to choose from.

Had them a week and they good cushion and seem to be holding up well. I also like the weight.

As a heavier runner I love these shoes. I'm 240 lbs and always have calf and shin soreness/pain from running. I've ran in keyano's, wave creation, wave rider, adrenaline, cumulus, etc. this is the first shoe I don't feel like I bottom out in. A month ago I bought the adrenaline 21 and beast 20, I've only ran in the adrenaline 3 times and likely won't anymore because they have too soft of cushioning for my weight. It's hard to find any running shoes that feel like they can hold up because most running shoes are built for people less than 200 lbs. I am going to buy another pair so I can alternate like I intended to do with the adrenaline's but fell in love with the beast. No more shin splints no more calf fatigue.

Love love love! My son uses these for walking around in a warehouse 8 hours a day- extremely supportive and pain free feet!

The best support hands down! My husband is not a runner but has suffered his entire life with fallen arches. We have gone so far as to have custom made shoes with no relief. Sales Associate steered us to the Beast 9. We've been solid Beast customers ever since. Stability is the best in the business. After I broke my foot, my doctor recommended them for me. I wish they were around a lot earlier, I'd probably still be running today.

Assume shoe with tremendous design characteristics. Been having problems with my planter fasciitis and after wearing the shoes almost a week most of the pain is now gone!

These shoes are very comfortable. Purchased the wide width and the shoes fit well. Would buy these shoes again

These shoes are great. I am an older (68) and somewhat heavy runner (235 lbs) with an over pronation issue. Although I liked my previous two pairs of Ghosts, I wanted to see if the Beast might provide a little more support. So far, I've logged about 100 miles in my new Beasts, with my longest run being 8 miles, and I absolutely love them. No more ankle soreness.

These seem like decent shoes, but I ended up returning them and buying a pair of Adrenaline 21. The Beast 20 fit great in the toes and mid-foot, but the heel was too big, I've never had a shoe with a wide heel like this. It may be great if you wear orthotics but with my regular socks there was too much movement.

The shoes are nice but I had to add some padding to make them more comfortable. I still had to get over the price.

I have been wearing Beast shoes for many years and I am disappointed with the last pair I purchase ('20s). The '18s that I had were great and held up very well. This current re-design seemed to take out the structure that made the past shoes very stable for this large man. I dont run but I wear them every day for everyday shoes, and the '18s I had lasted over almost 2 years before the soles broke down under my weight, now I have has the '20s for a year (a year I barely left the house mind you) I am already looking to replace them. Please bring back the heavy duty Beast!!

The Beast is the only shoe that lets me run for any appreciable period of time, due to my overpronation (described to me as "the worst I've ever seen" by two different people). I tried the Adrenaline 19s and they worked ok for a while, but the 21s failed me for some reason so I'm back to the Beast. I ordered two pairs in early 2021 because of concern Brooks might discontinue the shoe. PLEASE DON'T!

These shoes provide great support and cushioning. This is my third pair. I would recommend ordering a 1/2 size larger than you normally wear. They run (no pun intended) a bit short.

I can't say enough positive things about these running shoes. They have great support, very light weight and look stylish. The sales person at the running shoe store helped me with these 5 years ago, and the Beast '20 is much better.

Not as cushioning as I thought they would be. Taking longer to get used to them than any pair of the Adrenalines that I have had. Not satisfied but getting used to them. Time will tell. Fit seems right.

Just feels great on my feet

The Beast shoes are outstanding! They go great with my job, which requires walking at least 5 miles a day. The "Beast" are very comfortable and look very good, and I've got many positive comments about them. I recommend Brooks shoes for everyone, especially those that have problems with their feet.
