Disclaimer: I have not had the Brooks Beast since around 2009 I picked up the Beast 20 because I needed more support and comfort and went on a long run and then a walk and so far these are great! Very good cushion and bounce with the right amount of support

I've been wearing Brooks Beast shoes for about 10 years and have been pleased with fit, comfort, style and quality. However, I have not been able to find a comfortable shoe amonst your current offerings, the Beast '20 included.

I am not impressed with the quality. I am a first time user and its been about two months since buying the beast 20. Already the insole is coming apart on the right shoe. I was not expecting this considering the price should equal good quality. Pure disappointment as I had high hopes for these shoes.

I'm hard to fit, size 14 4E. As soon as I tried them on , I knew they were great. Very comfortable. A KEEPER!!!
I'd also recommend:
Beast 18 and Nu Balance

Looks good but honestly should have kept the old design I'm a bigger guy and these soles where to soft and allowed to much flex and didn't look near the quality as previous years!! I was really disappointed and that is why I have since returned them! Please go back to the old style or make some durable shoes for big guys again please!

Very comfortable but not as supportive-not as clunky more like a part of your foot

This was my 12th pair of beasts, and I feel disappointed enough in them that I just returned them. Sizing runs smaller than past beasts, in width and height of the uppers. Hoping as some others that Brooks goes back to fit and design of older models, and maybe some better color choices.

I purchased the Beast ?20 running shoe. I have been purchasing the Beast models for several years. The show is lighter and has the same great feel and support as the other models. I encountered an issue with the shoe which was fraying slightly around the ankle. The customer support could not have been better. They replied immediately to my concern and shipped me a new pair of shoes. It was a 5* experience. If you have a choice on where to buy your shoes, I would buy directly from Brooks. I am throughly impressed.

I have purchased several pairs of Beast shoes through the years. Always been good for me. Also, I hve a narrow foot but the medium fit is fine with a good sock. My only compaint (not big) is that the new styles does not have the extra end of toe (on top over the big toe) covering that those in the past had.

I have worn the Beast for, maybe, 10 years. My '18 model is a total disappointment. The material the upper is made of provides no support at all. The soles have broken down causing supination... a condition I have never experienced with any other shoe. I will likely never buy a Brooks product again.

Great support for my flat feet and comfortable fit. I'm not a runner. I'm an old pronating, flat footer who is walking for health. I need the extra support to avoid joint pain in previously broken ankle, and for heel spurs.

I loved the shoes, but have YET to be able to wear them. My shoelaces were too short. I wrote and your great staff sent me new ones, but they were SHORTER than the first ones that didn't lace correctly. So, then I wrote AGAIN to order the longest ones you could send. I'm a size 11.5 and probably a 13 would work or at least let me lace them up. From that point, I've heard NOTHING.

I have been wearing Brooks Beast for about 15yrs and the current model 20 is the best set of the Beast that I have ever worn! They stand up to me and my frame and exercising and continually asks for more.
