My old Brooks were at least 5 years old and these feel like a great replacement. Comfy and supportive for my pronation and high arch. My husband thinks I chose the wrong color - basic black. My old Brooks were bright pink. I love my new ones!

I love these shoes. They seem to be best for a bum knee and ankle.

I hate doing this, because I've run in Brooks for the better part of the past 20 years and usually in Adrenaline. However, the fit and heel cup on this shoe are terrible. I've run in the shoes 5 times, and every time I get up around 2-2.5 miles I have blisters on the back of my heel over the Achilles and on the sides of my feet under the ankle bone. The shoe feels like it has no padding at all in the cup. I've never had such issues with a shoe before and I think I'm going to toss them or give them away, they're that bad.

I usually wear size 8N in regular shoes. I bought these in size 9N because I intend to use them for walking longer distances. I've walked 4.5 miles in them a couple of times so far. They have a bit of an arch, but not too much for my flat feet. It will be a while longer before I see how well they support my ankles that roll in. I know that these are not the strongest of the stability shoes, but so far they seem adequate. Wish they came in more than one color in the narrow width. Wish more size narrow shoes were available overall.

The best sneakers I’ve ever had. Light & comfy. But durable! I use it on the floor for a 12 hour shift.. I’ll get another pair for running too.

I always buy Brooks Adrenaline. Sometimes I wait too long to replace my walking shoes, and my feet and ankles get sore after walking 1-2 miles. As soon as I buy a new pair, my feet come back to life, and I can walk for miles!

First of all Brooks is not offering any exciting colors in extra wide, so I have to settle. This pair of adrenalines make my feet ache. I am going to give them one more day. Walked this morning with aching fet and when I took of my sneakers my feet were in pain. Don't really know why, as ther were no apparent pressure points, just overall discomfort.

The medium was too narrow and the tongue of the shoe had stitching on the side that bothered me.

I have another pair of Brooks Adrenaline GTS 21 and I measured the ones I just received from Zappos (and returned), and they were definitely shorter, and MUCH narrower in the toe box area. They were marked the same size and width, but definitely were not.

Much better than the adrenaline 20, more comfortable and closer to the 19’s

I have narrow feet and these are one of the few pairs of athletic shoes that comes in 2A. I usually wear a 9 in other shoes but have to select 9 1/2 in athletic shoes. They fit good and are comfortable to walk in for 4 to 5 miles. I am very happy with these shoes. I wish there was more of a selection for narrow widths.

Very comfortable sneaker with good support. Did get a small heel blister while fist wearing them but fine now. Love the sneakers. It’s probably my fifth pair of same style. Good for walking and running.

These are the worst Adrenaline shoes I have ever owned. I?m constantly getting blisters on my heels. I have worn Adrenaline shoes for years and this design was not an improvement. I?m changing to another brand until these are improved.

I have received so many compliments on the look of these shoes! I follow up with the compliment by telling them how extremely comfortable these shows are and how much I love them!

After wearing asics gel kayanos and being disappointed with the style, I was recommended Brooks adrenalines and was assured by many websites that they have great arch support, just as good as asics. After wearing these shoes for one day, I can assure you, they do not have good arch support. My feet have suffered from plantar fasciitis for years and I so wanted a stylish shoe that also relieves my pain. Sigh... Now that I have worn these shoes for 9 hours, as a nurse, I can't return them and they are about as useful as a paperweight. Back to ugly asics I guess...
