Customer Reviews Brooks Addiction GTS 15

I had the prior Addiction version that was not true to size for me but this version is. Very comfortable.

For me, the Addiction GT5 shoes don't support the outside of my feet as well as the Ghost 15 shoes that I also have. My next purchase will be Ghost 15s.

Nice shoe, fits well, comfortable. Has one aggravating, though minor propblem: the ties have difficulty sliding thru the eyelets when ceding tightened. Like they are made of a no compatible material. Maybe metallic eyelets?

I ordered these because I really enjoyed the Ghost 16 and thought that a shoe more designed for my foot would actually be better. Boy was I wrong. I'm not sure what is different but I am not a fan of this shoe. It actually hurts to run in these. Can I return them for another pair of the Ghosts I previously ordered?

The Brooks Addiction shoe is excellent! WE serve a popoulation of runners in an outpatient clinic, sportsmedicine facility and have been recommending Brooks Addistion, Adrenaline and sometimes the Beast for over 20 years. We get great feedback and the quality and reliability is top notch always. Thank you for offering this consistent product without changes just to be changing.

The first few times out I was getting blisters. Now theyre starting to break in Anns are doing better. Price is high for what youre getting. They were a gift. I had high hopes that they would be better.

I'm a big guy an I need full support Addiction works good for me.

Not a happy camper. My feet feel like theyre stepping on stones, lumps. Couple of hours in these addictions 15 and my feet are aching to get out. Shouldve stayed with the Ghost series.

Purchased these for our son, thanks for providing these in narrow width. However, would be nice if there were other colors available in the Adrenilines. Brooks color schemes arent always the most attractive. Comfort level is why we keep coming back!

I have wide feet with low arches and need a supportive shoe, but I can't tolerate NB's roll bar technology, as the motion around the heel strike feels unnatural. So reading through shoe reviews I found brooks. My first pair was the adrenaline, which is great shoe, but wasnt quite enough support for my needs. Then I found out about the addiction and the aches and pains I was having in my lower legs went away (I walk and speed-walk about 10 miles a day at work). So if there's anyone out there like me where you need a really supportive shoe but full motion control is too much this is the shoe for you. I have ran occasional short distances in the shoe, although not often, but I can say I like the support and feel of the shoes when running just as much as when walking. The only thing I would say could be improved in the shoe is the tread in the forefoot, as it could use a bit more "bite" or grip (although I would not call the current one slippery but because of the flatter, harder tread it lacks some knobbiness that would help with things like grabbing on to corners of stairs, or pulling an object towards you with your foot. However these aren't really natural or common motions, and the shoe works well on flat, even surfaces) If there's a way to increase the forefoot grip without compromising on the support and pronation correction, this would be the perfect shoe! (For my feet). I am so happy with my purchase of the addiction that it will be my my go to model for replacement of my daily driver footwear and will continue to be! (until either my feet or the model have drastic changes).

Bought these shoes for my husband. They are perfect for him. Its hard to find narrow shoes for men. They look great, quality is great and function is just as expected..

I have had Addictions since the middle '70s or so. Thus, I thought ordering on line would not be a problem. Well, the shoes I got are really ugly and don't fit. I have three older pair that are the same size but I could not even get the first new one on even after loosening the laces. Finally, the package came without any paperwork so I have no idea how to send them back. This has been a totally unsatisfactory experience. C. Chiles

Exactly what I ordered - still breaking in, but great so far

Best shoes I've put on my feet, hands down. I use them for work, walking about 10 miles a day.

I ordered these because I really enjoyed the Ghost 14 and thought that a shoe more designed for my foot would actually be better. Boy was I wrong. I'm not sure what is different but I am not a fan of this shoe. It actually hurts to run in these. Can I return them for another pair of the Ghosts I previously ordered?

Most comfortable pair of brooks Ive found.

Tried numerous treadmill walking shoes. Nikes. Adidas. New balance. The usual suspects and couldn't ever find one that was comfortable. Was so relieved after a friend had recommended me brooks and they were perfect. Had them for about a month now. My foot pain has subsided and the treadmill sessions are no longer the most dreaded part of the day. Thanks brooks.
