Can't say enough about Brooks athletic shoes. Comfort, style and fit are perfect. I usually have to wear orthotic inserts with other brands but not with Brooks. Thanks Zappos...can't beat next day delivery!

I bought a half size bigger per the web site recommendation and it is slightly too big. I wish I would have bought true to size.

I work 12 hour shifts in an ICU and I need comfort and stability. This shoe is perfect for me. No need to break in. They're comfortable from the start. The sizing is spot on for me as well.

I was so disappointed in the women's Adrenaline GTS 21. I wear a 9 narrow and you can never find them in my size if you don't buy as soon as they are available. The color they pick for the 9 narrow is always ugly and has no style. I am still wearing the GTS 19 and it has great support. I feel like the GTS 21 has no support and feels like wearing a house shoe! Why can't we have more choices in the narrow sizes?

I am a 6ft tall woman, 280lbs...I also have poster tibial tendonitis...this means that I walk on one of my tendons. Yes it is painful if not in a good shoe. Normally i wear a 12W. I have tried new balance, but the last few years they have fallen short of producing a decent shoe for me. These shoes are wonderful! Great look (love the colors!) about them...also great arch support, even with my orthodics! My feel don't feel nearly as tired, or sore or worn. Thanks Brooks & New Balance!

These were a replacement for my Adrenaline 18's and they do not disappoint. They have the same fit (order up a half to a full size) but also had a bit more stability. A nice improvement in my opinion.

I have a high instep so I have to leave the last hole or TWO unused and tie them below. The size I ordered is half a size larger than I actually take and the fit is perfect so I guess these particular shoes run a little small.
Lovely shoes! Feel great.

As it says on the description, you want to go half size above your normal size. This is my 5th Brooks Adrenaline GTS pair, and this is my favorite design yet. I have normal heels with wide toe box. Wearing shoes such as Sperrys and Converse are torture to my pinkie toes. If you have the same problem, try this pair. Your feet can finally breathe.

These fit smaller than the Ghost 13 that I tried at the same time. Had more cushion and support than the Ghost, but were not as comfortable overall.

I purchased Adrenaline GTS 21 six months postop posterior tibial tendon surgery. I tried other brands for foot pain but still had a great deal of pain. I am not a runner. The shoes are a great fit & support. Wish I had known about them sooner.

To start off - I'm generally considered a neutral runner. I actually overpronate *very* mildly on my left foot, and tend to weight weight the outside of the right foot more heavily - but only very slightly. The first Brooks shoes I bought were the Ghost 13, and while I loved them, after a few weeks I started getting knee pain and noticing that it felt like my foot kept travelling on my right foot and would almost feel like it was riding on/falling off the inner edge of the sole. After having to take 3 weeks off with knee issues, and the suggestion of a friend, I gave the Adrenaline's a try and have never looked back. I actively feel the guiderail keeping my foot from travelling over the inner edge like it did the in Ghost. I'm up to about 85 miles in these shoes and am about to order 2 more pairs for backups I love them so much. My local run shop pretty much told me I'm neutral and they'd never recommend the Adrenaline's for me, but what works works. I truly feel like the guiderail system Brooks uses would work for anyone. When you need it, the gentle support is there to correct without overcorrecting. When you're neutral - you don't notice it at all. I like that these shoes are well cushioned and protect my legs, while also providing the right amount of energy and feel of the pavement. 10/10 could not recommend more. They do run a little big. I usually wore an 8.5 in the Ghost 13 and Glycerin 19, and am generally an 8.5 most running shoes. But these were way too large, so I have a size 8 and they're perfect.

I am a regular Brooks customer and was very sad when the Bedlam 3 didn’t fit like the Bedlam 2. This shoe is a happy replacement. The fit is good right out of the box. I wore them all day 2 days in a row from mile walks with my dog to errands and work. Love them.

My 4th pair! The wide size allows extra room for toe box. Have been a runner and now avid walker for over 40 years so am aware that you have to grab up the running shoes that work for you!
