I have to say my past few pairs I have gotten the size that I have always been and bought many Brooks they are now running really small especially my last pair it's frustrating to pay so much and have them come my normal size 11 and they are so small !!

Disappointed in these. First they're not built for any longevity. The material is really thin so these will not be good for someone who runs or wears them daily. This affects the integrity of the shoe as well because there's zero structure in the walls. Where they do succeed is the colors are nice and they are very light weight. The sole is very comfortable and has a ton of shock absorption. Back to the bad I experience alot of pain in my right foot from the build of the top of the shoe. Idk if it's poor quality control but the right shoe fits differently. I won't continue to wear them because of this and will have to look else where for something different. They're not worth the price you pay for them.

I have loved previous models and this is my third pair. The way the tongue of this shoe is awful and it never lays flat.. I would not buy this model again due to the way the tongue is sewn in which makes the top of the foot extremely uncomfortable unless you get it just right.

I really wanted to love these shoes! I have run in the Revel and several pair of Ghost. The ghost is my go to shoe but I wanted another shoe to alternate with speed training while I train for a marathon. I love how lightweight these shoes are but they are more narrow fit. I find myself getting blisters on any run over 3 miles. I wasn't planning to run long distances in them but I think I should be able to run 5 miles in them without getting blisters. I've never had that happen with the ghost before. I think they would be great for short runs or even if you just need them for walking as they are so light!

I have tried the hyperion tempo, size 9.5 to replace my Launch 8 in size 9 (Launch 9 was a big change and not good anymore). The size 9 hyperion was too narrow for my bunions, so I went up 1/2 size. The general sizing and shape seems great. I like the height of the sole and the general shape of the shoe. However, the back of the shoe is much deeper than my other Brooks and is digging into my ankles and achilles tendon. I am trying it with a heel lifter but will likely end up returning it. My running experience: I run about 3.5 miles twice weekly outdoors.

It's not as supportive as the ghost. The vents prevent these shoes from being good for running in the rain/mud.

Super cool looking. Not very comfortable at all. I think I'll stick with my glycerins!

It is a nice looking shoes. I don't think it is good a long run. Last week I wore it to run a full marathon and my feet was killing me.

These are great, but not enough padding/support. I immediately bought some inserts for them.

Although it is very light, I can't just slip them on and off like with the Ghosts. The shoes tongue slides back. Because they are lighter the ball of my foot is a bit more compromised. Great for shorter distances but not for more than 3 miles.

These don't work well for me because it rubs on a bone on my foot and is very irritating and painful I really prefer the ghost 14. I really just can't even wear these.

I?ve worn the Max and Tempo versions for race day and training so I thought these would be a natural fit. After a few weeks I noticed pain in my shins and thought it was due to overuse in my post marathon recovery. Unfortunately these shoes flared up a terrible shin splint for me. I will use them for walking my dogs and reserve my others for running.

These are pretty narrow. If you have a wider foot size up and get a wide fit

Super light - both shoes together felt lighter than one of my ghosts 14s. I ended up sending them back - didn’t like the heel, the toe box felt narrow, and hated the stretchy, flat laces. But did like love the color pattern. As I didn’t like the fit only had them on a few minutes.
I'd also recommend:
Ghost 14

Not a fan. Best shoe I've had was the Ghost 13. The Ghost 13 felt like I was running on air. I am going to continue to run in the Hyperion Tempo because I am going to try to like it.

I have worn Brooks before and have been happy with the fit. These did not fit my orthotics even when removing the insert.

I think I'd really like this shoe, but something about the fit is not right. I've NEVER worn a size bigger than 10. Usually it's 9.5 or 10. So I ordered a 10 but either the shoe runs small or the toe box is not right for my toes. My big toe is squished by the top of the shoenot the end of it. So it's almost like the height of the toe box is too short/flat. I think the actual length is probably ok. I haven't given up on them yet but I'm disappointed.

Definitely inferior to my Ghosts. They feel weird and cheap, honestly.
