Quite stiff sole. I prefer the addiction but am hoping this works out.

Sole is too thin at toe and not wide enough.

I am using this shoe for walking. Bottom of my feet hurts just after walking 1/2 a mile. I feel like the shoe does not have enough support or cushion. sometime I feel road bed under me.

These are reasons I'm returning the above shoe: The shoelaces make it too difficult to get on & off. Also, due to foot injuries, I have trouble walking in such cumbersome shoes. Sorry....

Odd fit for this shoe. The 10.5 was too big and the 10 was too short. I’ve had other Brooks Addiction shoes that fit rightly, so maybe just a one-off.

These shoes are narrower again this new style. My foot feels crunched in and I got my usual size and width(wide). It seems like every year the style changes they are not as comfortable as a style from 2 years ago

These shoes are great as far as cushioning. They are not as roomy in the toe box as the Addiction 14.

Not as comfortable as my last pair, much stiffer. I am sure they will get better over time.

I have worn Addiction for many years. Unfortunately had to return this pair as the heel padding is so hard and so overstuffed when I got it on my foot my toes were jammed into the end of the shoe. This shoe never fit like that before. I normally wear size 7.5 but due to orthotics I go to a 8. I would need an 8.5 but then the heel would not fit correctly. I needed this shoe because I have a over pronate problem.

These shoes fit great and I like them, but unfortunately one of them squeaks quite loudly, which is very annoying. Considering i paid so much for these ($140), which is way too much to accept a defective product. Otherwise I like them very much, and am considering ordering a replacement pair, hoping for better results this time.

They're okay, but I feel like I'm walking on a concrete floor. Needed more of a springy sole as opposed to the one it comes with as it aggravated my plantar fasciitis. Changed over to the Brooks Ariel and haven't had any issues. Much better shoe for me for standing and walking long periods at work.

The laces were way too short! I couldn't even tie them with a single knot. Not sure if it was a defect or something changed with design but made them impossible to use. Otherwise, they seemed like the same, great running shoe I've been wearing for years.

Now that there is a defect in the DYAD that no longer allows my custom orthotics to sit properly I?m trying to wean myself out of orthotics into this model. For me the Womens extra wide toe box is narrow and the forefoot is tight ! Heel fits nice. Had to order half size up . The heel is a bit squishy compared to the DYAD . Hopefully I?ll get used to the cushion. Arch support is fine for my flat feet . One of my feet overpronates the other doesn?t. These seem ok? I don?t know yet . Not a bad looking color in black. I prefer white, pinks, lavenders but I know brooks won?t make pretty colors in ee widths . Hope they will be ok. I?m desperate without the dyads now

They are ok. Not the most comfortable or the least. I'm having trouble with standing all day at work and then walking in the evenings. They just aren't as comfortable as I wanted them to be for either work or walking.

This is My 5th pair of addiction and it is the 2nd pair that I just do not find as comfortable and well made as the 1st 3. Colors are not attractive, probably will not buy again

I've been wearing Addiction 11 for the past 10 years (I managed to find them even after other models were released) so when I finally needed to get a new model of course I went for these in the same size. The support on my severely pronated feet feels great, but I'm stressed out that the fit doesn't seem right. The roomier toe gave me severe pain in my forefoot after a few hours of wearing them (just walking around at work, not running). I don't wear orthotics; in fact Brooks Addiction sneakers are the only thing that's kept me out of orthotics this long, so the extra room is not helpful at all. How should I go about sizing these? Will a half size down fit me better, or will the heel be too narrow? Should I just get orthotics? Would love to know so I can go back to loving these shoes!

The shoe fit in the toe box has become wider since 2020. I now get blisters on my second-from-the-outside toes that I never got in the many years before that I have worn the Addiction. Changing sock thickness, pads, and other attempts to fix this problem have not helped. Very frustrating, especially since my feet are extremely difficult to fit. I am not a runner, just a regular person trying not to have pain when I walk.

Sorry I had to return them and I loved the style and color. They did not work for me when I tried them on. I will try again at another time. As one who has to wear NARROW, there are not many choices for me.

I wanted to love these, but my big toe was uncomfortable in my usual size, so they are going back.

Definitely get a half size larger. These are relatively heavy soles on these shoes. Other styles are lighter, but do offer good platform support.

I was hoping these would work for me based on the description, but I found them to be extremely hard and not supportive. I walked around my room a few times and my heel strike was already hurting. Still on the hunt for responsive and supportive sneakers!

The fit was relatively good but size purchased 10 2E way to large, have since exchanged for 10W. Finding that 10W sizing is tight around the toe area and forefoot. With orthotics in becomes ever tighter. However, the shoe is quite comfortable if only can get a proper fit. Will try it in the men's version. My arthritic flat feet are a tough matter for sure. Happier withe last version in a 10W. This GTS15 has greatly changed in forefoot. A normal foot would probably find it true to size.
