Customer Reviews Brooks Hyperion Tempo

I love the cushion and spring of this shoe. I wired them running indoors only so far, as weather has been snowy since I go my them. I can?t wait to try them outside. The only downfall of this shoe is the width across the widest part of my foot. It is a little snug, but tolerable. I think that will go away as they are more used.

I?ve run in Brooks (almost exclusively) for almost 10 years now! This was my first time trying the Hyperion Temp. I wear an 8.5 in all other shoes and always size up to a 9 in my Brooks for the perfect fit. This has been the only Brooks shoe that I have found to run big on me. I had to exchange my 9 for an 8.5. It is a great, lightweight shoe. Loving them for a few miles, but I think I?m going to stick to the Ghost for my long runs.

The shoe is really comfortable and most resembles the Launch 5 (which was my favorite). However, I hate the "tongue." With this shoe, it is flat (with no texture) and therefore, it slides down and sometimes digs into where your foot and leg meet. For me, I cannot wear this shoe for a race longer than 5k. That is really unfortunate given the steep cost in comparison to other Brooks shoes as well as those on the market.

Wearing them for some runs and work (ER RN) ! But prefer the Hyperion elite 2 for hard or long runs.

they felt good but the tongue kept moving all over the place.

Love the lightweight feel of these but they fit tight & do not allow room for orthotic

These were so amazingly light, they really did feel like running on a cloud! I ultimately didn't keep them though, because I felt like I might trip, not having a solid base to feel and know I'm coming down on.

I have been wearing Brooks for a few years now. I typically wear the Levitate. I used to wear an 8 1/2 but with the new ones I wear a 9, same with these. There isn't much cushion, but I wear inserts so that doesn't matter to me much. The one thing I would love to see changed is the tongue. It does not stay in position at all. If they were like the Levitate, they would be sewn up the sides and not move.

These shoes really are light and provide quite a bit of energy return. Love that. Only thing not to like is color. The white ones were out in my size. Would like to have more color options as well. Maybe a darker blue, too. I always wear a half size up from street shoes, and the fit is always perfect with Brooks. I have narrow feet, and this seems to be a nice slimmer shoe. I love it.

Love how light and fast this shoe feels. Only change I would make is to secure the tongue. But if that doesn't bother you, this is a great running shoe. I'm on my second pair.

Very Light weight and breathable Narrow for my foot it's perfect True to size meaning on the edge so if you wear thick socks maybe 1/2 size up. Material looks kinda cheap specially the blue edge foam. Offers support for under pronation I can feel the cushion. 1st time getting Brooks and will be trying them out. I decided on getting these before I invest in the Hyperion elite 2 in sept. I will not be getting them. Hype is not real.

I've had a pair of the Adrenaline series and when those wore I went shopping. Saw these and thought they would be good. Felt a lot thinner but still a nice shoe. I have no cartilage on the interior of one knee so I need extra support. Returned for a new pair of Adrenalines and am super happy. Once again a great shoe for someone with good knees.

Not enough cushioning if you?re use to Ghost 12

I've run in these a good 40 miles (treadmill only) now and it's been pretty nice from the first mile. I picked these b/c of the light weight and a little more cushioning than the hyperions but not obnoxious / bulky like some of the others. Before settling on these, I tried 2 different ones from HOO and found the crazy wide soles & cushioning were not for me. I only run 4-5miles at a time so I can't speak to long distance but these do the job for me just fine. BTW, the shoelaces are pretty rad. they stretch but hold the snug ties without chocking the life out of your foot of ankles. The only not great thing I can say is that despite the mesh-ish upper, my feet still get very hot during each run.

I've really been enjoying the Hyperion Tempo. It is a great fast day shoe that I would even consider using for a half marathon. The new DNA Flash is an awesome mix of bounce, cushion, and responsiveness. The upper breaths well too. It was comfortable from the first run out of the box! My only complaints are the laces are a bit too stretchy and the price is a bit high compared to past Hyperions and the Pure project shoes (which I'd say it reminds me of). Overall, I enjoy having this shoe in my rotation and look forward to putting more miles in it.

Overall I love them: light, nice fit, wide toe box, design ok, just worried about the outsole which is wafer thin. I was just able to use them today after more than 40 days Covid confinement. Cushioning feels nice, toe box feels amazing because your feet feel free yet safe. I have been running on Glycerin 15 and 16 size 8 (same size as my Hyperion Tempo) until now that I decided to go for these, specially for long runs. I ran 10.5 miles today after more than 30 days without running and my feet and legs feel just right. I just plan to use them for long runs and half marathons and longer races. Really worried the outsole won't last as long- for the cost of the shoe. I used to run on two pairs of shoes, alternating them and they lasted for a bit more than a year (that would be 6m each).

I run 40 - 45 miles a week and was looking for a shoe to rotate with my PureFlows. This shoe felt too soft when I put it on, as I prefer a less-cushioned, more responsive shoe, but as I ran I felt the cushioning was just right. I have high arches but I wear orthotics so that is probably why I didn't notice any type of arch issues, as others have noted. My only knock on the shoe is that it is too narrow and was causing the beginnings of a neuroma so I stopped wearing them for running and just use them to walk around.

I really like these shoes, but they were too wide for my feet. They are true to size, as I wear a size 10 and sized up to a 10.5 for running shoes. Would definitely love these shoes if they came in a narrow width.

Really love this shoe. It's very comfortable and responsive. It's been good for shorter and longer distances. My only issue is the laces. They're really flimsy and they loosen up after a few miles.

Great Light weight, cushion shoe@

Loved these shoes right out of the box! The only drawback I found is I have a wide toe box so they were a bit tight on one foot . Ordering a bigger size would have been too big. However that said, they do have enough give to be doable and fit perfect on the rest of my foot. I highly recommend these shoes!
