I have tried many brands of running shoe for pronation. The Adrenaline seems best for me. Excellent finish and seemingly excellent quality control. Adrenaline 21 seems lighter and seemingly more toe box room then prior version.

I really like the Adrenaline GTS and I'm glad they are made in wides, however, the color choices SUCK, especially for wide options! How many negative reviews does Brooks need on colors before you wake up to what your customers want?

Brooks are amazing. I discovered them after having extreme foot pain. I went to a store that offered gait tests, discovered that I had lost my arches. They recommended Brooks and Hoka. I chose Brooks based on looks alone. Let me tell you, that was the best decision ever. My foot problem was resolved in just a few days. I currently own the adrenaline XX. I completed my first half marathon in them October 18. I'm really wanting to try the adrenaline 21. Maybe one day soon.

First, I have to disclose that Brooks gave me this pair of Adrenaline GTS 21s to test for free (Thank you Brooks!). For some background I am a casual runner who runs 3 to 4 miles three times per week. Because of COVID I mostly run on my tread mill. I also participate in an occasional 5 or 10K as well. My shoe size is a 10 with a normal width and the shoe color I received was gray with blue accents. I exclusively run in Adrenalines because of the support they offer. Like all my other Adrenalines these too offered plenty of support as well as cushion. The shoe is lighter than previous models which is a big plus. The toe box also appears to be roomier. I was a bit concerned about the material they used to create the upper because it was so light. Would this material hold up? It appears the material is durable and reinforced in the areas that need reinforcing (toe box). I don?t think I will be seeing my toe poking up through the top of my shoe in a few months. Like other reviewers I was not a fan of the color but it looks like several other options will be available. The fit, cushion, roominess, support and weight are all pluses. Overall, the shoe is an improvement over previous models. Sometimes you are afraid that the next model of Adrenaline that comes out will actually be worse than the previous model but this never happens. They just keep getting better!

Let me start by saying I am not a runner per se but I own at least thirty pairs of brooks which are worn daily for extended walking, clay court tennis and just daily general use. I should also note that these shoes were sent to me by brooks free of charge in exchange for writing a review. I should also note that I am seventy two years of age. All that said, I find the new brooks GTS21 to be a fine addition to the brooks running stable. for me personally, every pair of brooks seem to have been made for my foot. the saying "fits like a glove would come into play here only they fit like a foot glove. Two key elements jump out on these shoes for me. One is the ankle stability. when the laces are tight, the foot feels locked in place with little chance of turninig your ankle. the second is the cushioning in the heel probably more important to a walker than a runner but was instantly recognizable. I would clearly buy a pair of these especially a limited edition model which makes up the bulk of my brooks shoe collection

I am an avid runner and run about 20-25 miles a week. I had to replace my worn out Glycerine and thought of experimenting with Adrenaline 21. It's as if it was designed for my feet! I have issues with stress on "ball of foot" and needed a pair with stability and right cushioning to support the road/concrete pavement trails. I would recommend half a size larger than the current size, with my narrow feet, it worked just perfect!

I have run in Brooks shoes since I started running marathons six years ago. I have run in both Adrenaline and Glycerin models. I go for support and comfort. I recently received a pair of Adrenaline GTS 21's from Brooks for free in exchange for my honest opinion. I find the GTS 21 to be similar to earlier Adrenaline models. It is very comfortable and I feel stable running in them. They feel less "cushy" than Glycerins. Adrenalines lead to a more "grounded" feel for me. Whether I choose to run in Adrenaline or Glycerin, I appreciate the fine quality that Brooks has provided for my six years of runningten total marathons including three Bostonsthanks for the support and comfort! I'll be wearing Brooks as my running journey continues.

In regards to Review the Adrenaline GTS 21, size 10.5 Men color all black, I did receive these for free to test out the new style of Adrenaline
I am an avid runner, run about 35-50 miles a week, Mainly wear Brooks shoes for running.
I can say these did not disappoint.. The shoe is very comfortable and I feel I can run further as I deal with Plantar Faciitis and with the new style I notice my feet did not bother me at all, enough cushion and padding to keep my feet in place and excellent support.
They are true to size, super comfortable, I find even after my run I keep the shoes on around the house and running errands.
The only Con would be the color, like I said these were a free pair to try, I received all black, I would have liked color, even if the sole had white on the bottom.
I would highly recommend this shoe, I usually have 2 pairs that I switch out, they are the GTS style as this is the best style for anyone with any sort of foot issues, I will be purchasing the new style for sure.
Thanks again for letting me try these out! I am super excited to continue to run without any foot problems.

I just received a pair of the new Adrenaline GTS 21 shoes, which Brooks provided free of charge, and have run and worked out with them for the last week. I am very impressed with these shoes. I usually wear Glycerin's but appreciate the extra support in the Adrenaline's. They provide a very nice cushion feel and, overall, are a very fine, quality shoe. I will order a second pair very soon.

I was fortunate to be invited by Brooks Running to test this pair of shoes free of charge. It looks beautiful with a very sleek design. I like the color also which is greyish white. It fits my feet very well and I feel very comfortable wearing them. I would say compared with my other shoes, this pair looks more beautifully designed. I tested running for five minutes and everything looks perfect. It will be a great addition to my stock of running shoes.

I would like to thanks Brooks for sending me a free pair of Adrenaline GTS 21's to try and review for them. After wearing them for several different activities, I'm giving them a "Thumbs Up". I like the way they fit, especially with the guide rails for stability. Also the little extra room in the toe box helps make them very comfortable. I've been wearing the Adrenaline shoes for many years now, and they just keep getting better!

Brooks running sent me a free pair of their new Adrenaline GTS 21 to try out and then give my honest opinion. They are a good looking shoe and very comfortable. I normally use the Beast or the Addiction as my shoe of choice because of the extra support. I was pleasantly surprised at how stable and comfortable the Adrenaline GTS 21 is. I typically run on gravel roads or a treadmill, depending on weather. The Adrenaline GTS 21 worked well on both surfaces. It provided good stability on the rougher surface. The shoe is so light, It feels like running on air when I was on the treadmill. I am looking forward to putting a couple of hundred miles on the shoe to see how it holds up compared to the Beast. Its fit and look is first rate. I have been using Brooks shoes for running and my regular day to day activities, exclusively, for the last 10 years. I used to get plantar fasciitis once or twice year. My podiatrist recommended Brooks to me, and I have not had an episode of the plantar fasciitis since. I am impressed with the Adrenaline GTS 21.

I buy 6-10 pairs of Brooks a year so when I was contacted to test a free pair of the new Adrenaline GTS 21 prior to release, I was quick to accept. I typically log 200-300 miles a month so comfort is my main concern with durability a close second.
I have worn the Adrenaline GTS 21 for 60 miles this week and have seen an improvement in my minutes per mile and reduction in foot issues, especially after a long workout. I was initially concerned as the size 13 2E appeared narrower than previous models, but the upper structure of the shoe has more flexibility, feels lighter and is more comfortable than the previous models I was wearing. I probably will not wear them when trail running, but they are now my first choice for asphalt. Although I need more time to assess their durability, I anticipate stocking up once they are available for purchase.

Since Brooks put in the Guide Rail design the shoes are awful. Took a great shoe and ruined it. I have ran in these since the inception. I cannot tell you how disappointing. From running in the Guide Rail System, I developed Metatarsalgia.
