Toe box is small, feet feel numb. Overall support is good.

I am using these shoes for daily wear at my desk job. I also do cardio drumming. Within 2 weeks of having them the edge is starting to peak up. I'm really bummed out, because the shoes are comfy and cute. But for the price, they shouldn't break down so quick.

I've always run in Adrenalines (all but one pair) since 2013. I really didn't like the odd shaped tongue in this pair. The other colors for the '22's seem to have the normal tongue. The laces were also much shorter than all my other pairs & come untied.

The insole didn’t cushion my foot as I expected. After wearing a few weeks the fabric developed a hole. Never had that happen with Brooks before.

I’ve worn brooks adrenaline (size 10 1/2) for many years but this version feels smaller in the top of the foot and the toe area as well. Need to return.

I have worn multiple pairs of Adrenalines and each pair I get I seem to have different issues. This particular pair felt like they were halfway through their life on day 1. I felt like the drop had changed and from what I am reading, the drop did change (from 12 mm to 11mm). I didn't lose time like I normally do with a new pair of shoes BUT I never felt the support I got in the previous versions. Not my favorite version :(.

I'm not sure what's happened to Brooks shoes. The tongue on this shoe is too short. Laces are also too short. I've loved Brooks for years but they're putting profits over product.

The fit was good, but shoes made a weird screeching noise every step I took - too annoying to ignore.

The side under the ankle was higher than my other Brooks sneakers so it felt like it was digging into my ankle. I had to return.

My first pair of Adrennaline GTS were the 21, I LOVED THEM, my runs were so happy and a game changer experience with those shoes. I change my shoes every 300 miles ( an average of 2 pairs per year), so i bought a second pair of GTS 21 and everything was fantastic, but i reached my 300 mile mark and I needed to buy a new pair. So i head into the webpage for my purchase and I see there were still available GTS 21 and GTS 22, but I choose the newer version because they had one color i really liked and OMG, such a dissapoinment, they are narrow, smaller, is strange but i feel like my toe hangs to the front, IDK is a weird feeling (like is shorter in lenght eventho I ordered the same shoe size 5.5), the laces unfold, and my runs havent been as comfortable tbh. I still have like 20 miles left on them and the GTS 21 are not available anymore :C idk what to do, if try a different brand < /3 or wait for the GTS 23 :c. I am so sad for my brooks

I have worn Brooks Adrenaline for years and have always had a good fit and support. I have overpronation and a bad knee and Brooks shoes really help me in those areas. The disappointment with this shoe was the color choices--yuck! Most were either some shade of black or pink or purple--none of which I like. I settled for boring light gray and white. Brooks needs better colors for women!

The fabric and laces are such beautiful colors, and they go so well with blue jeans. But the white soles ruin that. They look goofy. I don't want to draw attention to bright white soles. Bright white soles look like white tennis shoes. They don't go well with anything but white. If Brooks would just put grey or charcoal grey or maybe even black soles on these shoes, I would love them. Right now, I am waiting for a second order of shoes to see if I can do better than these. I am not happy with the way they look, but I may have to buy them anyway!

My toes felt like they dipped down at the top like the liner didn't go all the way to the end of the shoe.

I've been wearing Brooks for a long time. Recommended by my podiatrist, I remove their insole and use my own.
What has disappointed me about this pair, are the laces that everyone mentions. It really is an annoying pain that they are so slick, they never stay tied and must be replaced.
Also, the inside of the heel is breaking down, revealing a hard plastic chunk that is uncomfortable.
I don't love paying this price for shoes that do this in the first 3 months.

This shoe is super attractive but I don't think it’s comfortable. I should return but being lazy. $150 is way too much bc it’s not comfortable. I feel like lately when I order shoes the same model of the ones I’ve had previously, the comfort level has gone way downhill Bummed to say the least. I would reccomend a diff shoe/style

They’re great but the bottoms fell apart pretty quickly which was disappointing. The bottoms of the soles separated from the rest of the shoe which was really strange.

The back fabric by the heel is taller by a good 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch and it rubs and causes a blister. I've never had to break in any Brooks and I'm not starting now. Please go back to the lower back by the heel.

The shoes are the same and comfortable. However, they changed the back by the heel and it sticks up about a half an inch, just enough to give you a blister. Nope. Change the design back, they were perfect!!

I wanted to love these. I used to wear Brooks Adrenaline but this version has a high 'collar' around the ankle and it would rub my ankle raw, so I sadly had to return the shoes. I've recently been wearing Brooks Ghost and they fit perfectly.

The GTS 22 seems slightly smaller in the front of the shoe than the 21, and the laces are too short and slippery. I hope Brooks makes something more like previous models next time, or I might have to switch brands after years of wearing Adrenalines.

I have worn Brooks for at least 10 years and love them. I always wear a 9, even though my shoe size is 81/2. These shoes got great reviews so I wasn't concerned about fit, but when I put them on the toe box is narrower than normal and my big toe hits the side of the shoe. Also, why the short shoe laces???? I could hardly tie them in a bow. They are beautiful, but going back. Thanks to Zappos for their great customer service and return policy!

Ive been buying brooks adrenalines for years now. Ive recently noticed I’ve had to replace them more frequently. My current pair are two months in use and they’ve flattened out and I have no cushion. Very disappointed, will be looking for a shoe that has a longer life.
