9.5 was nice and roomy. Rating is because this shoe is so much heavier than the Ghosts I have. Soul isn't as flexible.

It wasn't too big or too small--just didn't feel that comfortable. I have very narrow, flat, finicky feet--think it's my problem, not the shoes.

I have been wearing the Ghost 15 for several years and I love them. This time I ordered the Addictions because I did not like any of the colors for the Ghosts. For me, the Additions are slightly less comfortable than the Ghosts. They seem to be less cushioned.

I have used these for years. Unfortunately this last pair has been narrower than it should be for the 2E that is indicated on the label of the shoe. I hope they stretch a little. Otherwise it seems to be as good as usual.

Love the wide toe box. I use an orthotic insert and it fits perfectly, with plenty of room for my toes to wiggle. Wish it was available in more color combinations!

Heel is narrow but the toe box is like a B width- too high a box and wider than normal for narrow sneakers. However there are so few narrow sneaker choices that I kept them. Going to wear heavy socks to hopefully make them fit better.
I'd also recommend:
None -,hardly any shoes made in narrow sizes.

Close to perfect. Roomy toe box in the wide width, and built on a straight last for those of us who need stability against overpronation. I don't typically wear wide, but the regular width was too narrow for me. The heel was not loose even in the wide - it has the extra eyelet hole so that you can use the "heel lock" method of lacing.

Great shoes that were recommended by my podiatrist for a reason. They help with my foot pain, which of course is the most important thing. However, why do they only come in three colors?? Also, the black is ALWAYS sold out in my size (10, not even the most common) so in effect it's two colors: boring grey and shows dirt easily white. I know the demand for this style is not as high as your other shoes, but please give those of us with bad feet some different color options and keep black in stock!

I love Brooks shoes and always wear a size 8. These shoes were too small. It was the first time I ordered the Addition GTS 15.
I had to return these and will look for another pair.

I followed your advice when initially ordering these shoes. Your description said that they ran small and to buy 1/2 size larger than normal. Whe I did that, both pairs I bought were too big. Even after exchanging them for a smaller size the are still larger thean the Ghost shoes that I also bought. I won't buy that style again. The Ghost style is much closer to true foot sizing.

I'm an 8-1/2 in every-day shoes/sandals, but I need 9-1/2 wides in athletic shoes due to bunions and other foot issues. These 9-1/2 wides are too short for me, and a little narrower than my glycerins. I really like the way the tongue is secured, and the color was great. I may try them in a larger/wider size.

These fit better than my Ghost 15s. I used the guide on the website to pick these after reading the new Ghost, which Ive worn for years was different. I have bunions and other issues and the Addiction felt wonderful. I have worn every day for 2 weeks and will take them on a trip with walking/light hiking everyday.

I love Brookes shoes but not this one. I returned them. Thank you Brookes for your return policy.
I found the shoes stiff. There was no bend in the shoe when walking. Not the cushion that I'm so used to in Brooks. Also it sounded like I was wearing shoes with wooden soles.

I mostly love these sneakers - this is my third pair. My only complaint is that in two of the three pair (including the one I just bought!), the heel cushion that hugs the Achilles tendon gets smashed / pushed down, and doesn't cushion properly. I even tried to avoid this with the new pair by using a shoe horn most of the time, and it still failed. These are good quality shoes, except for this one issue. I hope that Brooks can improve this one part of their otherwise excellent show.

THANK YOU for making shoes in narrow. They are sooooo hard to find! I love this style & they help keep me steady when walking. My orthotics fit nicely under the sole pad. I do not run but these are comfortable in walking & workouts. I generally wear 8 but these are 8.5 in your brand. Ample room for toes to spread.

Even though I bought a wide, the heel was so narrow it rubbed and gave me blisters. The top of the heel was so stiff, and it cause discomfort.

I love Brooks Addiction GTS 15. Ive happily worn these shoes for over 30 years! A new pair always fits perfectly and Im ready to go immediately. I dont even need to break them in. My Physical Therapist recommends Brooks to all his clients.
I will ALWAYS continue to wear Brooks!

I returned these shoes. I have had many great experiences with brooks shoes but these are hard and uncomfortable. Wore for 2 hours in my home and my feet hurt for a week.

Have been very happy with my Addiction GTS 15 shoes since they were introduced. I wear them all the time so generally keep 2 pair to rotate. Last year, I could not find my size locally or on your website so had another gait test done and they recommended Adrenaline GTS 22 shoes. I bought the Adrenaline GTS 22 shoes and after a couple months my back and legs started hurting. I started looking for Addiction GTS 15 again and found my size on your website and have had no problems. Their support and guiderails are what I require. I wear them every day.

Extremely comfortable shoe. I've had multiple pairs of the same shoe over the past several years. My only disappointment is that the upper fabric near the ankle generally frays before the sole wears out.
