Really wide around the toes. Felt like clown shoes. Also really surprised at the lack of arch support.

Not my first pair of brooks but might be the last one. My feet don't appreciate them. Not comfy as all other brooks shoes I have had. Tons of blisters.

Very DISAPPOINTED with the Shoe Laces . TOO short and look like they were made for dress shoes, very cheaply made. I need to purchase corded laces that are longer and will hopefully, last as long as the shoes.

Not as comfortable as 0ast versions 9f Adrenaline. Arches fall 8n different places in the 0air. A bit tight in the forefront. Laces too short.

It is so disappointing that there are very few options in the D width. And I can't understand why the shoestrings are so ridiculously short! When I put them in the last hole there is barely enough left to make the tiniest bow. Then the risk is tying them too tight in order to have enough shoelace to tie. I could buy more shoelaces but why should I when spending so much on a pair of shoes? I have been an Adrenaline girl for 20 years, but these are not impressive.

This is literally my favorite line but this shoe toe box has a defect which bothers my toes. Unfortunately it's bad enough to where I can't wear them. Luckily my others have been fine. That's why this specific color is getting 3 stars. All other designs/color get 5 stars!

I'm considering returning my adrenaline GTS 22s because they feel tight. I normally wear an 8.5 but these seem too snug.

In order to get a large enough toe box I had to move a half size larger but that caused slippage at the heel. Also needs more support.

Saucony, Brooks

Honestly, it's kind of uncomfortable, a little cardboardy to run in. Plus, the shoe strings are very difficult to tie as they are very thin and slippery. I really liked the last year's adrenaline much better. I've been trying to find that model online but not having any luck. Maybe next year you can re-do that winning shoe?

I ordered my usual size, and the fit was perfect. I absolutely love the color (hot pink) - totally energized me to get out there. Unfortunately, the shoe is too structured for me, and the feeling was too stiff. I developed pain in my achilles tendon after only one wear. Returning to try the new version of my stand-by Glycerin.

So I love brooks adrenaline's. It's the only shoe I will work out in bc it's the only shoe that doesn't hurt my joints. However, I think my 7 year old daughter is designing the colors used on these shoes. I have said something to brooks twice now about how bad their color choices are and could they please add at least one with maybe some olive greens or more nature colors that aren't girly pink, lilacs and turquoise. The only options for non girly colors are black, grey and white. Then they come out with a rainbow shoe and others that looked like a group of kindergartners led the team in designing. There are so many colors out there. If my feet were big enough I would buy mens bc the colors are so much better but they're not big enough. PLEASE just give us at least one adrenaline with some good outdoor colors and good army greens or olives or even darker shades of blue/greens. Anything other than rainbows and pinks, teals and lilacs and rose.

Regarding Narrow size ordered: The shoe base is really good, but the heel is not as narrow as I need or have found in another brand. The look and color is better than what the other brand has available in Narrow width.

Brooks shoes are great, well made, soft. Brooks Adrenaline wide width shoes fit softly, great support, wonderful shoe but the bottom sole is so heavy and clunky to walk in. The sole made walking feel like a hiking shoe, much too much of a sole thread. The Levitate bottom sole is lighter and smoother to walk in. Thanks you Zappos but had to return them. Great customer service as always.

Brooks, New Balance, SAS

For how popular Brooks are I was not extremely impressed. They are comfortable sure. But they are bulky. This pulls very far from “barefoot” style shoes, that’s for sure. It’s like wearing boxes.

Had high expectations as I love Brooks. I thought the support in them would be better than it is. Also, hasn't been 3 months and the inner liner/ seal in the toe box has come undone and makes the toes very uncomfortable.

I've been wearing Adrenaline for at least 10 years after I was fit at my local running store for them following some injuries. I started to swap Ghost on occasion over the last year as my foot and ankles got stronger and I didn't need as much support. Both fit as expected. HOWEVER, lately the shoelaces on both models are ribbon-like material and very short. They do not stay tied and are so short it is hard to double-knot them. This is hugely frustrating. I've swapped out laces with old Adrenaline laces (which do not match the shoe color!) just to save my sanity. Brooks, please bring back normal length, normal fabric shoe laces! These are just so bad.

I ended up returning the Adrenaline GTS 22. This model runs very different for me. I wonder what Brooks changed in 22 that is different than the 21. The 22 gave me severe knee pain. I ran in them for 2 weeks. I have since went back to my old 21's and the knee pain has subsided. I could immediately feel the difference as soon as I put the old ones back on. This is very disappointing because I cannot buy anymore 21's and I don't know what to do about future running shoes. I went through this when Brooks discontinued the Transcend (the shoe that fixed all my knee pain). Why do shoe companies keep changing functional design between models?? I will never understand.

I had the Adrenaline 21 previously. Those fit really well. These are more narrow than the 21. I bought the wide, but they don't really feel wide. They fit me, but just barely. The length is the slightest bit longer than I need. I wish shoe companies would just make the same thing!

I liked it's color. I have different year versions of this same shoe for many years. The fit is the worse. The laces are too short, had to buy longer ones. The lace holes at the top are not in usual location, causing me pain on top of foot. My doctor prescribed Ortho have always fit fine inside prior year shoes after taking insole out, they don't in these shoes. The bottom soles of the shoes seem cheaper. I'm not happy with these shoes. Too expensive for feeling this way.
