Customer Reviews Brooks Ricochet 2

This shoe is perfect for my running needs. I love it!

I purchased these shoes for everyday running errands, and wearing to stores. LOVE THEM! I have narrow feet and they fit perfectly. I really like the design of the front tongue area being one entire piece instead of separate. Makes life easier. Would buy these again!

These shoes were super comfortable in my first workout with them (a cardio workout indoors). I love the tongue-less sock-like design. It creates such a great fit. And these colors are amazing. I love having pretty shoes! Can't wait for it to warm up a bit to run in these outside!

These are very comfortable. I won't need as thick of a sock in them.

Ran 5 miles in them right out of the box (with my own insoles). Felt great and my pace was definitely faster compared to running in Ghost 12. I was a little uncertain about the upper when I first put them on but they felt comfortable with an evenly secure fit for the entire run. I always size up a 1/2 size with Brooks. These ran consistent with other Brooks sizing.

I enjoy the feel of the support on my feet. It makes for a feel-good run. The color is great! But....I long socks is a must!! I made the mistake of wearing low cut ankle socks during my first use of the Ricochet 2. By the end of my mile run, the bottom of my feet felt great, no lower back pain, but I seen how the back of the shoe (the inside lining wear the assisting pull tab is) had rubbed the top/back of my foot raw. I wore band-aids & long socks for my next morning run then eventually gave the shoes a rest til the top/back of my foot healed. Once healed & long socks worked for a much better running experience. Only reason I didn't give 5 Stars.

It is a little weird having a shoe with no tongue but they are very comfortable

Very comfortable and I like that they are stylish. I do wish they came in a wider size because they might fit my foot better. When choosing what shoe I wanted I had a hard time giving up style of shoe for a size wide shoe. Even though I probably should have gone with a wide shoe, so far, I haven't had any pain from running like I did with the Nike shoes I had before these. They have really great support.

Wishing that these came in wide width. Shoes are very attractive and comfortable, but are a bit snug on the sides of my feet.

I really like them, but I have wide feet and I think the shoe is rubbing my big toe when I run. The shoe is very comfortable and I love running in them except that one problem. I love the sock like fit at the ankle area.

Very comfortable but difficult to put on because they have elastic rather than a tongue.

I wasn't sure about the mesh fabric but after wearing them for a few runs, I'm enjoying them. They are light and comfortable. The only thing I don't like about them is the "elastic" around the ankle. It's tight at times depending on the thickness of socks you are wearing.

I love Brooks shoes. I am not a runner, but a waker. I need the support Brooks shoes give. I decided to deal with my over pronation and picked the Ricochet. The first day out my more effected foot was not happy. Second day out, I was working with it and man did they feel great. They are comfortable and very supportive. I really like these shoes. The glove like fit is true. The first time they may be hard to put on if you aren't use to this type glove fit. The shoe itself is not confining. I bought a 1/2 size up for my ingrown toenails. It was perfect. No tight toe box!!

Run just a little small, but still can wear with thin sock.

Nice comfortable shoes. My first training with them was 8k and this shoes gave ma blister after this on a tight foot this is why 4 stars. But they feel really good after few more runs

I like these for running. They feel minimalist in terms of support, which I'm fine with. I'd agree with other reviewers that they are on the narrow side. My feet are narrow and these fit fine, but i can imagine they could be a bit difficult to get on if your foot was average/wide due to the sock like top. I have used PureFlow for my last few pair of running shoes but the latest version of those didn't fit like the others and I need a new running shoe. These are working well so far.

This has been a great lightweight summer shoe. I wanted a lighter pair just to throw on and walk the dog, or get a lap in between all the Pandemic zoom meetings. I dont think I would take it on a longer run (past 4 miles) my feet really prefer a little more stability for that. I love the color and metallic rose gold, really fun!! Kept my boring quick summer walks a little more exciting and also looked great when running errands!
