Overall, comfortable shoe. The laces are short and do come untied a couple times throughout my work day. The Adrenaline in the past seemed to work better, but the color selection is incredible for these shoes and I did not have any issues where my feet hurt breaking in these shoes either!

I have worn Brooks for years and about 6 years ago I had to size up because they changed the style. Now it seems I have to size down…

This is not a bad shoe I just prefer the ghost14. The ghost14 has more cushion and the adrenaline has more firm support.

I agree with Holly S.. great running shoe, color choices are maddening. I buy new ones every four months (for years) and I have never loved the color I chose.. I wouldn't expect to love the color every time, but not once. I saw the green and black ones and got excited, only to find out they're just for men. My 7 year old niece loves all the colors.. nuff said.

Pros: These are my first pair of Brooks, and I'm not likely to buy another brand now! I love the comfort of these shoes! I really feel like my foot strikes are being absorbed, and the heel area is slightly cupped-making my fasciae and arches feel supported. I love the design and color way I got. Very sharp! Cons: I wish the tongue was longer. When I lace up (using lock holes) the laces tend to slip under the short stub of the tongue mid-run consistently. The laces included were also WAY too short, so I had to buy others-not a huge deal, but worth noting. I like a new shoe at this price point to be turnkey. I also wish I'd purchased a half size smaller. I consistently wear a size 12 in all other athletic shoes, but the next pair of these I get, I'm going to size down by 1/2. For reference About me: mid-40s woman, runs 3-5 miles 5+ days a week. I'm a large lady (5'9 and plus size) and I'm on the slow end of the running spectrum (~11 minute miles, on treadmill, track, and groomed trails). History of plantar fasciitis.

I'm comparing this to the Brooks Adrenaline 21 which I bought last year. The arch support is good but not as great as the 21, so I prefer to replace the inserts with Superfeet. However, this version feels like the heel is lifted higher than the 21. It makes me feel like my foot is popping out of the shoe when I'm walking.

Design - nailed it! Such a gorgeous shoe. Feel/comfort- just as good as the ghost. I've only worn, ghost and 1 othercan't think of the style name. So this is 3rd style I've tried. Proly close to my 10th pair of Brook's overall.so yeah I'm kind of obsessed with them. Only issue, I have a crazy high arch (around an inch) so it doesn't quite have enough support there. My toes go numb sometimes when walking and standing, mostly due to needing more arch support. Overall love then!

I love the comfort of these sneakers! My only suggestions is that the tongue of the shoe be made a little longer & the shoelaces a little longer also!

I love that the sneakers hug my feet. The sneakers with the help of my orthotics make my feet work the right way. I walk straight, not on the insides of my heels. I wear them on a daily bases all day long.

I love brooks ghost so I decided to give these a try. Super comfortable especially working on my feet 10 to 12 hours a day.

Love, love, love the Adrenaline. Perfect support! My only complaint is the shoelaces are not long enough. (Otherwise, these are 5-star shoes for me!) My first pair that I bought in 2021, had stretchy, pink laces that are plenty long. I love that style of laces but none of the Adrenalines I've purchased since have those nice stretchy, long laces.

This is my second pair of 22's. They are ok except for the laces, which are cheap and too short until I break them in. (I use the all the available holes to keep a snug fit). Overall this shoe gives great response and the toe box is adequate. Great stability as well, and good for off road trail.

I wear these shoes exclusively because I can get them in my size. They'd get 5 stars if I could ever beg enough to get my size in anything other than gray. Please. Make us 11.5 narrows a pretty shoe. We deserve pretty shoes too. I hyperpeomate, have massive arch problems and I can still run totally pain free in these with my custom orthotics from my podiatrist. Just PR'd the Shamrock half marathon in the ugly sad grayagain. Sure would've been fun in the shamrock shoes!!

The disco style was not as comfortable as the limited edition white/red/green "trix" shoes. The soles seems much more stiff.

I purchased the disco series shoe. The black ones. The pictures just don't do them justice. The colors are amazing. And the fit and feel is everything I expect from the Adrenaline. I had to take a star away though for the shoe laces. They are super short and I have to pull them pretty tight just to Tues them. And I can't even double knot them. On another note, I did have an ordering issue and had to send an email. The response time phenomenal and he resolved my concern immediately.

The quality of the laces is an issue in that they don't stay tied like they did in previous models. There seems to be a new shape that pushes up the outer foot (not good for a f'at-footed person, in theory), but I can't tell yet if it's going to be a problem for me.

I buy this brand for my planter fasciitis. I'm a walker. I bought black for my trip in the summer. They are extra snuggly at first but form fit to your feet fast. I wish it had a bit more arch support and room for my toes. I tend to wear holes over my big toe. This one doesn't have the reinforcement I expect from the adrenaline series.

I have loved these shoes for several years. The 22 model has been updated, and while the shoe fits to size, the toe box feels smaller and tighter. The shoe is still comfortable and the tred seems to have been updated as well. Looking forward to seeing how they work as running shoes once they have been broken in.

The lateral side of the shoe needs more support. When I stand my feet feel as if the weight is on the outer edge of my feet. Kind of throws off my balance

I love this shoe and have bought a pair each year for several years., However, the last 2 years I have been very disappointed in the shoelaces. This may not be a big deal, but when a person pays this much for shoes, the person expects decent shoe laces. They are now very short, difficult to tie, are silky and do not stay tied (and too short to double Knot.) I have to stop and tie my shoes almost every time I go for my daily walks. Please spend another 25 cents and put in better, longer shoe laces.

My shoes are still new, not yet broken in, but they do not feel real comfy. I keep wondering if I should have gotten the ones with more padding. I keep wearing them however, and they have been fabulous for correcting the way I was turning my foot out. The pain in my hip, including a click and the pain in my knee have been amazingly reduced. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.

I would have given a five star but the shoe strings are entirely too short. They would be perfect with longer strings. Where on earth could I find a pair of strings the exact color of these
