Good fit. Redesigned from past two years. Has "guard rails" which give me more stability and support.

The most important thing for me is that this shoe comes in a 2A. As a result and of next importance, it fits beautifully. The first shoe I have purchased in years that fits me!

I have been wearing Addictions for years. However, I noticed in my last two pairs, the shoes develop holes in the ankle area after use. The first time this happened, holes developed in the interior ankle area after a week of wear. Brooks replaced the shoes as defective. This time, I purchased my new pair in Feb. 2022, and by May 2022, there are holes at the back ankle area on both shoes. I wear the shoes every day for walking, and walk about 4 miles a day. I though that they would wear better.

Love the color. I wear 7.5 but ordered 8. My toe is at the end. They are also tight across in width. I had already worn them to work so could not return them. At end of the day they felt really tight on my foot. They are expensive shoes soooooo.

Wearing them in Europe and first time ever I?ve had to cope with blisters on my feet. Very unhappy right now and would toss them if I had another pair with me. The blisters are severely limiting my mobility and causing significant pain. Will never buy them again. ? I?ve worn the same style previously with no problems. These are awful!!!!

I'm not a runner but I have terrible flat feet that hurt all the time. The fit of this shoe has really helped the pain in my feet and I am extremely pleased with the support in the wide width. I am especially happy with the stiffness in the top edge of the heel - my newer Brooks' have a soft heel and they are so hard to get on that way.

I am not a runner but have worn Brooks Addiction for 35 plus years. They were first suggested by a Dr. when I experienced Plantar Facitis. My husband is a diabetic and wears them also to protect his feet. We are walkers and 81 years of age.

I've always worn Brooks size 10 M shoes, Ghost and Addiction. Loved them. However the Addiction GTS 15 hurts my toes after just a few miles.

Have a pair I've worn at work, so I got another for outside. Great support, good cushioning. actually I'm a former runner, I walk faster than I can run. Due to my severe pronation, and narrow feet, it's one of the few shoes I can wear comfortably.

These are different from my original guide rail Brooks & my feet are in love! They feel like my feet are allowed to lay more flat somehow. I wear these for my long days of retail.

I?m not a runner but I am an avid Walker. This shoe has worked very well for me and I?m completely satisfied with my purchase. I need good support and a roomy toe box and these shoes fit the bill. I have previously bought Brooks Ariel but couldn?t get those in my size at the time I wanted them. It all worked out well with my first time purchase of Addiction GTS 15.

Loves these shoes. I have been wearing DYADs for years but theses are more supports and have more cushioning in the heel. Would buy another pair if they had more colors.

Have worn the Brooks Addiction for 20+ years & always able to order online because the sizing was so consistent. With the GTS 15 model, the structure has changed over the big toe & I cannot wear this shoe - the pressure on the big toes makes them sore. If this isn't changed back to the way it was in the 14 and all previous models, I will no longer be able to purchase the Addiction model. Please change this back to the way it's been for years!! The toe structure change is NOT an improvement!

Have worn Brooks addiction for years but I can't anymore. Sizing has changed with the 15 model. The 8 is too small and the 8 1/2 is too big. I need the wide footbed that it had. Will just have to find another brand as I returned them.

I have several feet issues particularly bunions and a hammer toe, which makes buying comfortable shoes difficult. This shoe is one of the few shoes that feels very comfortable on my feet. The wide size and large toe box ample room for my bunion and wide toe "knuckles". The soft fabric on top provides sufficient give to allow room for my hammer toe. Unlike many other shoes, I have NO pain wearing these. Thank you Brooks and Zappos!

Have been wearing them several weeks. I am a long time user of Brooks, was wearing Adrenaline, last year my PT said when I need new ones to go to Addiction. The guide rails on both sides are amazing- most stable, comfortable shoes ever. I bought a second pair to wear indoors! I am a 85 year old who does brisk 40 minutes walk, around 14 miles a week.

I really appreciate the fact that I can get a great running/walking shoe in a double E width. It looks great and feels great!

I've worn Addictions for so many years I can't remember any other shoe! So happy the new Addiction GTS 15 is just like the original. I have wide feet and am just walking at this point in my 68 year old life after a run-stopping injury 20 years ago. The Addictions are and always will be my shoe. Thanks, Brooks for continuing to make them!

The 2015 Addiction is very similar to the 2014 version, with some minor changes, but still a similar fit and good arch support. The thicker, bulkier collar around the heel makes it clumsier to get your foot into the shoe. My biggest disappointment are the colors. The gray is a dark, muddy gray and the black is a very dull black, more like a very dark charcoal grey with a dull rose colored stripe. What were the designers thinking???

I have worn Addiction shoes for a long time (I like the support and cushioning) and usually when I got a new pair, the shoes feel instantly familiar and comfortable. The GTS 15 did NOT feel good - I think you changed the footbed somehow. The shoes even made my knee and lower back hurt. I returned them. Please bring back the sole/footbed of the 14. In the meantime, I'll look for another brand.

I love the stability of the shoe since I have pronation. Every foot Doctor remarks what a good shoe it is.

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.
