very comfortable, runs true to size, exactly the comfort and stability I needed. I run on both dirt road and cement trails and my foot would pronate in with the slope of the road and I would have foot pain. Not anymore!

I have loved Adrenalines for years and this model is no different! It provides the perfect level of comfort and support. I get compliments everywhere I go. Note: I wear an 8.5 in every other shoe brand but I am a 9.5 in these.

I love the fit of these shoes. Only dislike is the tongue of the shoe is narrower than previous GTS and is slightly less snug

I'm a newer runner (neutral gait) and have been running in Ghost 13s. After noticing some knee pain and talking with a specialist, they recommended I give the Adrenaline's a try. The way they explain it, the GTS system is unique in that if you're a neutral runner and gaiting correcting - you'll never notice or use it. But when you get tired and your form breaks down, or as you perhaps don't have the best form because you're still building that strength and correctness, this type of stability shoe will help support you. He said once I build up more strength that the ghost's may work just fine but for now, to do the majority of my running (especially when I'm tired or on long runs) in the Adrenaline. They seem extremely comfortable, but run bigger than my Ghost 13s did. I'm a true 8, my Ghosts are an 8.5 and I originally ordered an 8.5 in these. They ended up being about .25" or so bigger than my Ghost, so I sized down to my normal 8 and they are perfect. Time will tell on the knee/stability aspect, but I'm optimistic!

I will be returning these. The sides are much higher than my previous pair- which will run on my ankle. Plus the toe box was much too wide for me. Interesting how much the fit has changed since my 19 pair.

Love the runner! From the time I took them out of the box and put them on, they were great. Perfect fit and width I needed. Would highly recommend this shoe. I have had difficulty in finding shoes that fit that I could walk comfortably in. I finally found that.

The only shoe that works for me! I always need arch support and this is the perfect shoe for that. It is very comfortable and I can walk miles in it. Plus I love the grey and light blue color!

The Adrenaline GTS is my go to shoe. I find the cushion sole and heel counter for stability to be the best whether I?m in the gym or on the road.

Love these shoes. Comfort, style, support, stability.. everything I need as an over pronator. I still have to use inserts to help my support, but these shoes have performed phenomenally, and exceeded my expectations.

I am not a runner, but I really like the Brooks Adrenaline for a stability shoe. This is my third pair. I was disappointed with the color. The picture made them look black and red, bit they are charcoal and mauve.

I bought these because I was looking for a good running shoe since last fall as my normal running shoes were practically falling apart. Once I started running in these I noticed that my toe didn't rub up so much against the fabric of the shoe and create a rash like my other shoes had. I also noticed that my knees, ankles and hips weren't as sore as they usually are. I thought it might just be because I haven't been pushing myself as hard as I was before, but I'm pretty sure the shoes are just really good for my joints. They also support my high arches really well. I think the arch might be back a little further in the shoe than my foot has, but it's still nice to have the support. I ordered half a size smaller than my normal size and it fit just right.

It has a lot of support for the ankle, but it's not as comfortable as described. I wish brooks wouldn't change their shoes every year. Find something you like, it's gone the next time you want to buy it.

I would love this shoe except that the tongues are too long and chaff my ankles no matter what sock I wear or how I lace them. I'm really disappointed in the design. I don't know who tested them but can't be the only one they bother. I'm considering cutting off the end of the tongues so I can at least use them for a while.

I walk 4-7 miles a day. Usually replace my sneakers 2-3x a year. And I rotate. These are soooo comfortable. I am going to order another pair as a back up!

It is an ok alternative to the ASR trail shoe. I wouldn't want to take it on any technical trails (it's not a trail shoe), but it seems to be fine for road running (ie my knees aren't hurting too badly). I miss the ASR, please bring it back!

After wearing these for a few walks my hips were killing me.
I'd also recommend:
Kayanos , for cushioning . Otherwis, my Kayanos only last 2 months.

I?m 62, with flat feet, a bad ankle, and vertigo. I needed walking shoes with good support. Brooks seemed to get the best reviews, and these shoes had a nice look. Now I wear them all the time and I couldn?t be happier. I can walk again, with no pain.
