Customer Reviews Brooks Beast '20

Way to small and I take a size 11.5 shoe!

They fit very well for my foot. I don't like a very high arch and it was just right. They're very comfortable shoes with good footbed cushioning. Great looking shoes for day to day use, but I'll be using them for jogging only so appearance doesn't matter. very pleased with them. As usual, Zappos customer service was great.

I am devastated!!! WHAT A SHAME!!!! I have worn the BROOKS BEAST exclusively for nearly 20 years!!! And that was PURCHASING 3-4 pairs of Brooks Beast EVERY YEAR for nearly 20 yrs! It was THE ONLY SHOE I could wear. I am in stage 4 of PTTD - Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction - a very debilitating disease - where my bones in arches never developed and my tendons ruptured and I had a total midfoot collapse in each foot. Fallen arches in each foot. The Brooks Beast were THE ONLY SHOE that saved my mobility. I was devastated to find out when I received my new pair of Beasts that Brooks had CHANGED the ONLY SHOE that I could walk in! Everything that was SO AWESOME about Brooks Beast is GONE! They NO LONGER have the unbelievable ARCH SUPPORT that they used to have! My feet now turn in and collapse in these new Beasts! I cant believe Brooks took all the ARCH SUPPORT out of this shoe! I have ruptured posterior tibial tendons in BOTH FEET and those Beasts were like braces holding my fallen arches up! It was nothing short of miraculous - I tried every other running shoe out there and the Beasts were a miracle for me! I was able to stop wearing braces after 5 yrs once I went into Brooks Beasts. I have cried and cried not having any shoes that hold my fallen arches up now. I am only able to leave the house about 1x per week now. I really think the Brooks Company is MISSING this whole segment of society who wore those BEAST SHOES NOT FOR RUNNING PURPOSES- BUT FOR THEIR ONLY SOURCE OF MOBILITY! Brooks Beasts have been the Go-To Shoe referred by ORTHOPEDIC DOCTORS - Surgeons - Orthotists - Podiatrists - Orthopedic Techs - Physical Therapists! I am BEGGING YOU BROOKS CO - PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back the ORIGINAL DESIGN OF YOUR BEAST SHOES - NOT for Runners - but for those of us who have been LOYAL CONSUMERS of your Brooks Beast for our orthopedic problems - our foot deformities - our ONLY source of MOBILITY!!!! I will do an ad for you of the MIRACULOUS MOBILITY your ORIGINAL BROOKS BEAST shoes have given me and countless others! Look at the reviews everywhere - I am NOT the ONLY ONE who DEPENDED on those shoes foe our mobility. I will do whatever I can for your company if you would just bring the ORIGINAL BEAST BACK! I'm telling you - you are MISSING a HUGE segment of clients who were DEPENDANT on those shoes! I will be a Sales Rep for your Company to personally visit ORTHO DRS and CLINICS and HOSPITALS w/the great results of restored mobility in those Brooks Beast shoes. Another concept for your Co is calling it an orthopedic walking shoe for those w/arch disorders. Create them in Solid colors of BLACK- BROWN - WHITE - GREY - MAROON for professionals to wear to work! I am a REALTOR and had to wear them w/my suits and skirts! So solid colors for professionals would open up another avenue for sales. I know an attorney who also wore them. and a female Judge who wore them under her robe. Solid classic colors are NEEDED for those of us in professional jobs - NOT JUST RUNNERS! PLEASE contact me - I have so many ideas for you to expand sales in this area! I am heartsick I can no longer work in my profession w/little mobility now. Please help your FAITHFUL CUSTOMERS - there are soooo many of us in this situation- bring back the ORIGINAL DESIGN of the BROOKS BEAST! Will be forever grateful!!!

My right big toe is rubbing against the shoe which is uncomfortable.

The 18 was a great shoe bought many pairs and was extremely happy with them The new 20 is poorly constructed and cheaper material reducing the support the 18 had Hopefully Brooks will learn from reviews and go back to what works to sell shoes to consumers I would love to purchase the 18 design and quality

The sneakers would’ve been good if they weren’t sent to me already worn so which means they were misfit because they were all stretched out there were no tags there was no paper in them the laces world on Schroon so now I I am not happy with Zappos at all as far as them sending me somebody else’s shoes or shoes that have been try it on and try it on and try it on there was a waste of my time is wasted their time

The shoes felt good but when I wore it and walked with it, the right front forward side where my large toe is was tight and it injured my toe due to the nail being pressed into the flesh. This needed a mini medical procedure to remove the nail. I have not used the shoe more than twice!!

The quality compared to the last Brooks Beast has nose dived with this pair. It also fit so much bigger that I can't even use them.

I have 5 pairs of Brooks shoes that are size 12 that fit well. These shoes are sized 12 much larger than what I need do not fit well. I wanted to return them but I miss placed the receipt and you will not except them without the receipt. Not happy will not recommend your company for on line purchase. I had plan to buy more as some of my other shoes are older.
