(I?m a walker, not a runner) For me, Brooks Adrenaline make walking doable. I?m a 55-year-old female post left ACL reconstruction and meniscectomy with extraordinarily high arches and weak ankles. But for Brooks? adrenaline model, I can?t say I?d be walking 3-4 miles a day four or five days a week. This shoe with guide rails keeps my ankles stable which keeps me mobile. Now, because my arches are so high, I do also use inserts; but these shoes are super supportive and comfortable, and they work great for me!

I love these shoes. They were recommended by my podiatrist a few years ago.

These are my second pair. So very comfortable and supportive I bought black for the first time,I usually get a light color. These are cool enough with the light weight fabric. They are a winner.

These shoes are very comfortable to run in, and provide support for my ankles and feet which overpronate. I have wide feet but the normal fit fits my feet fine. I have experienced almost no blisters and rubbing since I started using them (about 3 months ago). I like them so much I have purchased a second pair to wear at work when I am on my feet all day. If you run frequently in rain, I found that they get waterlogged in heavy rain and take ages to dry out. If you like light running shoes I find that the do feel a little clunky on your feet, maybe not so suitable for speedwork or softer surfaces. I also find that my feet heat up a lot, so if you don't like warm feet, don't get them.

I have an Adrenaline 19 pair which really fit well and was my go to for arch support and comfort. The Adrenaline 21 is different and not as comfortable.

Amazing the difference going up a half size and getting a wide instead of a regular makes in the fit. Don't know if my feet have grown and spread or shoes are getting made smaller (I think the former) but these fit wonderfully. Just enough support. I mainly just walk and these are quite comfortable. This is my 3rd pair of Adrenalines. I like them much better than the XX's. Support feels better, in the right places without being stiff or rigid. Feet/ankles/knees don't hurt anymore after my walks. If you're having trouble finding shoes that fit - go up in size.

They are lightweight and very comfortable! I like the cushion. The cushion in the heels feels like it springs back up with each step which is a plus. Shoes did not need a break in period for me.

These shoes fit great right out of the box. I hope they keep this model of the GTS for awhile. I wear them in wide width and they feel great!

I’ve purchased this shoe before and for some reason after only wearing it for a short while they are already loosing their shape and support. This did not happen with my old pair which I still wear.

I get a new pair every year. The quality is consistent and I love them.? They feel great on my feet, they wear well, and they look good. What more could you ask for?

I bought these shoes for running because I am a runner and needed better supporting shoes. They are amazing quality, super light and breathable, and overall the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I could wear these shoes and never take them off. I am about ready to buy a new pair! So worth it!

I am not a runner, but an old lady with very big feet. I am grateful that this shoe came in a size 13 for women. I have worn men's Brooks and they are too wide and leave me unsupported after a few weeks. These are comfortable and do a much better job of keeping my left from sloshing around in the shoe. Please keep making size 13 for women with big feet, like mine.

I really wanted these to work out, having been devoted to this shoe line since the GTS 17s. But unfortunately the 21s have introduced a flexible toe box, and a weird extra bit of fabric where the toes meet the rest of the shoes, and that area has been giving me blisters for weeks. I even exchanged my shoes for the exact same model, in case I got a defective pair at first. But I'm having the same problem with the second pair so it's looking like I'm going to have to skip the 21s and try again with next year's model.

Brooks fit my feet better than any other brand. The comfort and value are great. This particular shoe has guards to keep my ankles aligned

LOVE LOVE LOVE these! I'm a slow runner and I'm prone to so many injuries. I've had surgery already so I have to be careful with my footwear. These are hands down the most comfortable and versatile shoes I've ever purchased. They have so much comfort and handle runs so well. In addition, I use them for Zumba to absorb those shocks from jumping around so much. I cannot recommend these enough!

Fit is spot on! I like the wide because it gives my foot head space enough room to feel comfortable, without the floppy feeling.
