The Tempo's are now my favorite Brooks shoe ever. I've ran in a lot of different Brooks over the past decade plus and they all have been great. These are even better. I've only had mine for a few weeks but from what I've read in reviews these hold up well overtime which is also a plus.

Not the product for me, but it performs exactly as advertised and engineered. I purchased these to switch things up I prefer the more cushioned glycerines. These Hyperion Tempos are firm, stable, and responsive. These shoes are exceptionally light weight and very stylish.

The shoe is so lightweight and soft but not too squishy. It has a fast and dynamic feel.

Very comfortable shoes. Wore these about a week and ordered a second pair just in case Brooks changes them in some way.Lightweight but very sturdy with a just right cushion. Most amazing is the fit and feel that literally reduced all foot and calf pains and left me far less fatigued after long walks and runs, Big surprise was they are also great walking shoes. Fully deserving of the high ratings that customers have left. Great shoe...highly recommend!!

These have been one of the better pair of running shoes I have tried. They check a lot of boxes and hit the sweet spot for me.
They have a great balance of cushion but still allowing some road feel. They are light and responsive and I can use them for anything from a 5k to a half marathon. They look like they might be a little light on the grip but I haven't had any problems with slipping and have run on a variety of road conditions.
I have run over 200 miles on the first pair and they are still going strong. I have enjoyed running in these so much that I got a second pair as a backup option. I tend to prefer a shoe that is lighter, responsive and has less bulky support around the heel and ankle.

Incredibly light and comfortable. I feel in complete control of how my feet hit the ground, and the impact is nice and soft.

Light and comfortable. True to size. With some Brooks I'm a full size above my normal shoe size but with these I'm a half size bigger.

Love the DNA flash midsole. This is my second pair and had to get the nightlife colorway. These are so much fun to run in. Soft, responsive and bouncy all at once. Lightweight upper is tight and comfortable. I want to buy a lifetime supply. Have only run them up to half marathon distance. Probably wouldn’t recommend for anything more

Shoes are light as a feather with good foot support. I do recommend getting at least a half size larger than your normal size. I assume runners would love these but as a walker I like them too.

I have always run in the adrenaline gts and tried other brooks shoes. This shoe might be my new go to shoe. Super light. Fits equally comfortably as brooks adrenaline ordered same size. I?ve done tempo and interval workouts with this shoe and it feels amazing. I?ll need to use them for longer runs but I imagine they?ll be just as comfortable for those.

They're my first ever real running shoes I've ever invested in and it's worth every dime. I use to run in another pair of cheaper shoes from a well known brand and while they were good, they weren't fit for long runs. These do the trick and they're really comfortable.

Crazy how switching your shoes can (mostly) effortlessly increase your speed! As soon as I got this, I swapped in my orthotic insole, went for a run on my usual trail and I busted splits I never thought I'd break in the middle of a windy winter! No break in period needed, I literally hit the ground running in my Hyperion Tempo and it's been love at first run. Glad to have found my new speed and race day shoe!

Not much to add to what other reviewers are saying. These shoes excel when running at a faster pace and are very lightweight and comfortable. They should definitely be a part of your rotation.

I bought my first pair of Hyperion Tempo's while waiting for the Adrenaline 21's to become available and I'm so glad I did.
The first thing I noticed was how light they are and how good they felt on my feet. So much so that I unconsciously eased into running much faster than usual in my first couple of runs in them. I especially love the cushioning which is firm and bouncy. I do a lot of running in the mountains of New England(both asphalt and trail). The day after my first long, hilly run in them I noticed that my knees didn't hurt despite a mile long downhill section. Doing this same run in my previous shoes, I'd have to take the next day off.
I've run 185 miles in them now. The cushioning is a little firmer but still fine and with the same great road feel as when I first put them on.
Tempo's will be my hard training and racing shoes from here on. I also had my three children try them on. They loved them and I ended up buying each of them a pair for Christmas.

Versatile and durable. They feel great through almost all paces (6:00-8:30/mi) I've run in them. My pair is now at 350 miles and still going strong, with plenty of rubber left on the outsole. The midsole is not as springy as new but still responsive. Will probably last through 450-500+ miles. No problems with the upper.
Only minor gripe is the laces are too stretchy and flimsy. I changed them out and all is good.
Male, 135 lb midfoot runner, 40-50 miles/wk.

Really lightweight shoe, that offers more lateral stability than expected. I've run about 30 miles in these shoes now, and they are by far, the best shoes I've had in a while. I wouldn't recommend wearing these in wet conditions, as they don't provide much traction beyond what a pool noodle could offer, or for hiking, as I can't imagine them working all that well on uneven surfaces, but for dry and flat conditions, these shoes are exactly what I was looking for. Additionally, the heel drop is just right. I don't feel like I'm running barefoot, nor do I feel like I'm wearing something too elevated in the heel. I run faster in these than my Pegasus, and I feel less fatigued on longer runs. I've been experiencing some back pain, during and after my runs for a few years now, but these shoes are limiting this more than I ever anticipated. Please keep making these. They are the shoes I've been looking for, for so long. I'm a 43 year old active male, who runs about 40 miles a month and broke my Achilles 3 years ago. They run true to size.
