The cushioning is very poor. I have bought brooks for years and they had good insoles with thick cushions but the last 5 pairs or so have had thinner inserts. I have had to re-use my old inserts in the newer shoes and it is just not the same. I think I need to find another brand because I have bony feet.

Loved the way the shoe looked on my feet, there was enough toe room. I felt stable support, no wobbleness in my walk. The design is nice, too. Thanks Brooks for keeping this Addiction shoe around!! It really works for me.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks addiction is the best for Arch support and it works well with my orthortics.

These fit true to size like all other Brooks I’ve worn. These maximum stability shoes have tremendously helped my plantar fasciitis when nothing else has.

I ordered size 11W these are not size 11. Width was ok but overall sneaker runs tight. These are more like size 10. Too tight and too narow.

Always been a fan of the Addiction GTS, and the 15 seems to fit and support even better than ever! My wide, flat feet are loving this! I walk-jog over 20,000 steps a day, and these provide so much support and comfort.

These are great. I like that shoe is mostly black with some mauve, not pink. I got the wide and put my own insoles in them. They have a little extra fabric reinforcement near the big toe, presumably to help prevent holes.

The Addiction GTS 15 is very comfortable. my ussual size is 6.5 or 7, but need 7.5 with Brooks. The fit is great and my feet don't hurt after standing on them for 7 hours.

I've had many pairs of Brooks GTS over the years, but never the Addiction. They were recommended by my podiatrist in conjunction with my custom-made orthotics. However, after wearing these for a 9-hour work shift, my feet were KILLING me! When I got home, I compared the soles of this pair of shoes with the soles of my old Brooks GTS and these were definitely narrower. For reference, I ordered an 11D and I'm going to try an 11EE (!).

I'm pleased with the fit of this Brooks athletic shoe. It's wide enough for my feet, which is always a hard thing to find.

These shoes are the bomb! I recently started walking and developed lots of blisters from my other athletic shoes. Walked 3 miles twice so far in these and no blisters!!

They are comfortable and have been my shoe of choice for many years- however the 15 sole is extremely slippery on wet pavement and sidewalks! Much like being on ice! Not a great pick for Seattle!

I bought these because I was told that they have the same thick cushioned insole as the Ariel 18. It is not the same at all. The shoe is not comfortable at all, sole of the shoe feel hard and no arch support. I will add a picture of a insole from a used pair of Ariel 18 that I bought and the flimsy one from the Addiction GTS 15. The insole from the Ariel has a blue additional layer of foam that seems to make the insole firm and very comfortable (Btw the well used Ariel 18 are way more comfortable than these brand new Addiction shoes.) I think in general Brooks quality is going downhill.

I gave it 2 star just because it does have the nice cushioned removable insole but there is no cushioning in the sole of the shoe itself and very little arch support. I find it too be very uncomfortable.

I have been wearing Brooks Addiction for many years (with a SuperFeet orthotic in place of the original insert) and as long as I wear them, my plantar faciitis does not come back! Hooray! The shoes came fairly quickly! Thanks, Zappos!

These are new to me so I can't speak to how they hold up. But, I'm so happy to find shoes with a comfortable upper and good stability. Andrew at Howard Curry's Shoes in Kentucky did a great job measuring my foot and finding the right fit for me, which is difficult. I wound up with a 9 (larger than usual) Extra Wide (to accommodate a very high arch.)

I wear full length orthotics and the sneaker is deep enough to accommodate them.

I have been wearing only Brooks Addictions for many years.

It’s a great shoe. However, I had to exchange the 8.5 narrow to a 9 narrow and now there is room for my left big toe to be comfortable. I’m impressed with the design and excellent construction of the Brooks. I wore New Balance for years but now Brooks has them beat!!

When I put them on, they felt like I had been wearing them for weeks. Very comfortable, attractive, and just plain great.
