I'm used to the glycerin's so these felt heavier and not as "cushy"

This shoe was not true to previous sizing. I have worn the same size Brooks shoe for about 8 years.
I found this iteration of the Addiction narrower than I am used to, and I had to return it for a different (now discontinued) style. Overall design and construction were fine, but if this is a trend for Brooks shoes, I am going to have to look elsewhere for my next pair.

The shoes fit and feel great. I???m on my second pair but this pair squeaks terribly. I tried putting baby powder in them but that didn???t work. Any solutions?

I have a variety of Brooks running shoes and this is my first pair I took off because my feet actually hurt after about 2hours max of wearing. The heels of my feet felt like I was wearing no cushioning, and my arches forward were cramping, not from width. They overall felt like I was walking on a stiff, hard board. I???m glad I tried them out before our Disney trip. These are the worst pair for comfort. I wear sneakers almost all day/daily. I???m on my feet all day. These didn???t even pass a 2hr mark.

This is my favorite shoe by brooks. It's roomy without being a wide. I still have to wear orthotics. I have tried other wide shoes from brooks and they're actually more narrow than this shoe.
My only complaint is these NEVER go on sale. They're pricey to have to buy one pair but when replacing them often, I just can't afford that. I don't know why he gets excluded from sales. So removing two stars for this reason.

Roomy toe box, great to accommodate shoe inserts.
Well constructed good stretch. True to size.

Unlike the Brooks Ghost shoes I have been wearing for the past 2 years, these shoes felt way too wide and too short. I really liked the style and color (light gray and blue) but was very disappointed with the fit. I wear a 10.5 narrow, and these were definitely not a usual Brooks narrow.

I have bought several pairs of these shoes over the years they were always perfect the last pair were tight and different from before so I'm not sure what to order next. I wear a 12 wide usually not sure if extra wide would help My older pair are getting old looking So I may have to try something different just not sure what to do I'm going to try to wear the newer ones and break them in if possible

The materials are not flexible. My right foot hurt after wearing them for about four hours. They need better materials that stretch and more cushioning.

I purchased these for my 81 year old mother who walks about 4 miles/day. Since I don't live near her, I had a couple different brands sent for her to try. She tried these first. Once she got them on they were comfortable, but without a loop on the back of the shoe she had to get a shoehorn and use lots of energy to get them on. For older people or those with upper mobility issues, they just aren't user friendly. We returned them.

I have been wearing Brooks for many years. They are no longer the wonderful shoe they once were. Padding has been reduced and fit is not as good. I have several pair I would like to replace but the quality is no longer there! Sorry I will be looking elsewhere.

This shoe was more than a 1/2 size too small (I ordered up as the description suggested). I have the Addiction 14 and the length is perfect. It also irritated my Achilles tendonitis and bursitis.

I wore the Addiction line for many years. After double knee replacements, I began trying other models. I currently wear Dyad 11s (size 10.5, Wide (1D), but now have an overuse injury to one of my posterior tibial tendons, so my PT suggested I switch back to the Addiction. I ordered the current model, Addiction 15, in a 10.5, Wide (1D), but not only does it have a much narrower toe box than the Dyad, it's also about 1/4-inch shorter! Wish I'd known that when I ordered. Now I'm not sure whether to order a 10.5, Extra-Wide (2E), or what?

I have been wearing Brooks Ghost for several years. While I liked the looks of this shoe and the colors available, it just did not work for me. My feet were
sore and I started to limp after walking in the house within an hour of trying the shoe. Returning them, and will have to stick with Ghost. I have very difficult feet to fit with one foot more than a 1/2 size larger than the other, along with narrow feet with a very narrow heel.

The toe area was too small. I would have lived these if only the toe area fit

I have size 11 flat feet w/ bunions and plantar fasciitis. I?m a very active 76 year old walker. My podiatrist recommended Brooks and New Balance. I bought 11.5 wide so I could fit my orthotics in, but the toe area isn?t wide enough or high enough for my toes to be comfortable. I need a shoe horn to get them on because the heel is so stiff. They are very stable and supportive, but I?m giving them to a friend who has normal feet.
