Second pair of Beast shoes I've bought. I wore 18 previously and they are amazing. They meet my needs for double-wide sizing and provide great support. I love the look. I kept waiting and waiting for 20's to be released and grabbed them directly from this site as I couldn't get them from any local retailer fast enough. Brooks are amazing and this is truly my go to shoe
And no - I'm not a paid endorser! I'm an overweight husband and father of 3 boys who wants to get in shape.

Super comfortable, and with great support. I'm a walker, not a runner, and this is as good a shoe as I've worn

Very comfortable, soft insert. I use an orthotic insert for plantar fasciitis. The shoe is whisper quiet without the insert but squeaks loudly with the insert installed. I cut away the rear portion of the insert and added some foot powder to achieve 90% noise reduction. This also allows the heel to rest ~8mm deeper into the shoe for good ankle support.

This is the first time I have worn any other shoe then NB. I love the Brooks Beast. The cushioning is fantastic. I am a big man, and the comfort and support I get from the Beast makes this shoe the best I have ever worn. I ordered size 11, with 2E width. The fit, for me, was perfect. There really was no break-in time for these shoes. They were comfortable right out of the box. I suppose the only complaint I would have is that there are only two color choices. However, fit is more important to me than color. I will order Brooks athletic shoes again!

I haven't actually worn them yet. I have a relatively new pair of Adrenaline 19's that I love. Comfort, durability and support!!

I have been getting a pair annually for at least a decade. I get them for the unrivaled support and this year's version is definitely the best yet. If you need lateral support, there's really nothing like a Brooks Beast.

I don't run but work as an RN and on my feet for 12 hour shifts. These are the most comfortable I have found. I require a 4E width so I have to buy mens and they fit perfect.

I?ve had multiple surgeries on my foot and ?The Beast? is the only shoe I?ve found that is comfortable and has support too. This is my third pair.

The Brooks 2020 Beast is a great shoe for my walking exercise. It's light weight, very supportive and has excellent traction. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a comfortable shoe to walk in.

Even though I am not a runner, I have worn Beasts for years. They are the only shoe that offers the kind of support my feet need. The Beast 20 lives up to the reputation already established. I recommend them highly.

-Product was above what I expected ...pleased ...very comfortable. -But I must add, the Staff is superb. They helped me through the process of selection. We communicated on a regular basis; frequently multiple times per day. -Shhh... don't tell them I am a heavy older gentleman that walks a lot and runs very little. But I am getting better at running longer distances. They treated me like I was an experienced runner! -I'm looking to purchase a 2nd pair. Brooks Beast '20 rules...

The "tongue " can be slightly longer, so that I can hold on and pull it easily to place it in the proper place.

I'm 72 and while not a runner I do spend time on our treadmill, walking outdoors, stationary biking, and of course normal daily activities.
My physician recommended Brooks shoes many years ago when I was dealing with plantar fasciitis. It cleared up within weeks of wearing the Brooks Beast.
I've tried other brands of shoes but always return to the Brooks Beast.
I need the extra wide fit of the Beast which fits me perfectly.
I wish my local Brooks dealer carried my size but online ordering works for me. More color choices would be appreciated.

I have been wearing the Beast for years. I have posterial tibial tendon dysfunction in my left foot. The Beast is the only shoe I have tried on that would stabilize my ankle motion. I recently had new orthotics prescribed that are somewhat thicker than the previous ones. The new model Beast (20) is good. It is lighter, but still has the needed stability control. However, it seems a bit narrower than the previous model. I have to spread the laces out to maximize the space in the shoe. Otherwise, the balls of my feet and my toes get numb.

My husband is an athlete in his 70's who enjoys walking on a daily basis at a local outside school track. He tried the Ghost 12, but had run in the Beast many years ago. He loves them!
