Customer Reviews Brooks Ravenna 11

I've had a new pair of the Ravennas every year for at least 6 years now. When I'm training for races, I'll average ~25 miles/wk. Still a great shoe that checks all my boxes. They are lightweight with great support. I agree with other reviewers-at some point the ankle base got lower in this shoe so if you prefer a more sturdy fit in the ankle this may not be for you. Also the laces that come with the shoe have a bit of stretch to them. Neither feature is bothersome to me. I appreciated a more subdued feminine color style with this model. The last model color choices were terrible.

Original ordered Ravenna 11 in USA 7.5 but had to exchange for a size 8 even though my Ravenna 6 were a 7.5. I loved my Ravenna 6! The tongue on the Ravenna 11 seems longer & narrower, but still a nice shoe. Yes, I'd recommend.

I was skeptical at first. Felt like there should be a bit more padding under the front of the foot. But as I got used to then, I fell in love. They do help propel you to run further. They were okay in a walk as well.

Wonderful shoes. I use them for speed walking, and they are really working out well. Having tried a pair of Brooks walking shoes that were just a little bit too short in length (I'm usually a perfect 9.5), I ordered these in a 10. The only thing I would say is they might be a tiny bit loose, so I maybe tie these just a bit tighter, but that is all they need to work. I prefer the lighter feel of these running shoes as opposed to the walking shoes I bought and returned (no questions asked, just like they say!!) Great shoes, I walk maybe 25-30 miles a week, and the Ravenna 11's are getting the job done, with zero foot problems. I'd definitely buy them again!

I have had and continue to have each generation of ravennas for the last 6 years. I love the fit and the feel. I have to size up one half size, but this is typical with running shoes. They are flexible and supportive. They are and continue to be my trusty go to.

Initially felt stiffer than the 10's but now that they are broken in, I really like them! Tongue holds its position well and doesn't slide. Overall, they feel more lightweight.

Fits great, very comfortable to walk or run, looks good, washes easily without shrinking, etc.

I love my Ravennas. The fit is great. The blue is my favorite color so far.

I alter back and forth between Ravennas and Adrenalines. This update to the Ravenna is fantastic. Overall slim and lightweight shoe and very sleek looking. Good for the faster run days. I would recommend these for a half marathon or less distance.

So happy with my shoes! They are supportive and sturdy. I am, hard on my feet and with primarily walking 4-8 miles a day with an occasional run, these shoes provide the support I need. My legs and back feel great!

These shoes are very comfortable to run in. Feel very supported and my shin splints have decreased since I started using these brooks running shoes

Comfortable. Keeps my knees and hips aligned. I am a walker, not a runner, but these have just enough correction that I am comfortable being active.

I love this shoes, wear this everyday while walking my dog. Feels so comfortable

These shoes are great. These are the 5th pair I have purchased. I have a wide foot and they fit great. They also have the absorbency I need to keep from getting sore knees and shins.

I ran in Launch for 4 years and liked them but had chronic shin splints. I was advised to switch to a support shoe (my feet start landing funny in longer runs when I get tired and need extra support) so I tried Ravenna and I'm hooked! Zero shin pain for 8 months. I'm always worried when a new version comes out but I feel that these are even better than the 10's. Holds my heel a little better and hugs my feet. Feels great even on an 18 miler which I was surprised about. Good for both speed and comfort/cushion. Can't say enough good things about these!

Love this shoe! Super light weights and flexible but also very supportive. I use them for running but also gym workouts and everyday life. My favorite pair of Brooks so far and I LOVE the color. I regularly get compliments. Hopefully Brooks will release in more bright colors. These are awesome!

After going through many brands and different styles, these are the first pair that has eliminated my foot pain. I'm training for a 1/2 marathon and have no soreness after my long runs. At first I thought they felt harder than I was used to, but I got used to it within three runs. The guide rails on the sides are just enough to keep my foot in place if needed but not so much that it moved my foot. I wish I could order more of these to have as backup!

I walk a lot and need support for high arch. I like the Ravena 11 so far and they are very light weight.
