I'm very disappointed in this adrenaline gts 22. I have been wearing brooks adrenaline sneakers for many years, and this is the first model that does not live up to the former sneakers.

I was sent a used pair of sneakers that was very creased.

I'll start by saying that I really wanted to like these shoes. I had tried HOKA Bondi8 and Gaviota3 before these and I didn't like how bulky the shoes looked. This shoe is beastmode looking and I noticed that I ran faster in this shoe than the HOKA Bondi8 and Gaviota3. The BIG HOWEVER is that I had incredible big toe pain and I injured my knee after 3 wears! I'm heartbroken and I can't see myself spending this much on a shoe that looks good. Zappos return policy sucks so, the next pair of shoes I buy will be straight from the manufacture since the price is the same and you get a 90 refund.

I've worn tons of adrenaline's over the year. These have caused the most excruciating amount of pain for my bunion. I can't wear them even for a short walk without toe curling pain.

I don't know what happened to this brand but after having worn Brooks for many, many years for the support and comfort for running w/bunions, they have totally cheaped out, and these sneakers caused much back pain, and my toes wore through the front in less than one month. I just switched to Hoka - so far superior to these awful sneakers. I contacted Brooks on their IG page and was told to buy a size larger, which does not fix the problem that these are so very cheaply made

This is the first pair of Brooks shoes that cause me to have blisters on my right heel.i have been wearing Brooks running shoes exclusively for years with no problems with my wide flat feet until this pair. Very disappointed and will be returning!

Too wide! I was looking for stability, and felt none! The toe was way too large, so my foot just slid around. Not enough arch support. The material was too stretchy. I needed more rigid, firmness to hold my foot.

After wearing Brooks for years, I was extremely disappointed. I had to return them. The arch is now set too far back and the laces are way to short.

I wanted to love these shoes. They felt great when I put them on for the first time. However….a 17 minute mile walk on the treadmill proved to be excruciating. The back of the heal comes up so high on my food it rubbed a blister on each foot in that short of amount of time. Sadly, they’ll be relegated to the back of the closet.

I really liked the shoes but after a month the soles are coming apart. I have two other pairs of brook’s that didn’t have that problem. Is there any guarantee on these shoes.

I have worn Brooks Adrenaline GTS for years and have loved each pair. I was extremely disappointed with the GTS 22’s. The new foam padding makes it feel like you are walking on wooden boards. They are about a 1/2 size smaller than the 21’s. I even sized up and they were too big and felt like they had no padding. Brooks should go back to the padding and fit of the 21’s.

I really wanted to love these- I wore one time to walk this golf course and left my heels completely blistered. Do not buy. Upgrade to the Glycerin. Wish I could return!! Brooks has a 90 day return- does Zappos accept this as they were worn for 6 hours?

I was not in love with how they feel even on a short 4mile run this felt heavy wide and flat the only thing I like is the color and for strength day is an ok shoe but it didn't fit my needs on my foot for running.

My Brooks Adrenaline GTS 21’s were the perfect running shoes. I trained for and ran a marathon in them with no issues. After running in the 22’s I had pain from my toes to my hips. I thought I was just getting used to them and tried again. Everything hurt so bad that I didn’t think I was going to be able to finish my long run. I pushed though and have been aching ever since.
I will be returning these and will be hesitant to purchase the Adrenaline line in the future.

The new style and a different tongue that is stiff. It rubbed against the front of my leg and caused it to bleed.

I've been a long time Brooks wearer for running and for teaching aerobics classes. This latest pair is extremely disappointing. They fit well, but within just a couple of classes the soles began breaking off and wearing extremely fast. I can feel the sole flop as I pivot on it. These are a total disappointment.

The tongue is a different style than my prior Brooks. It was stiff and rubbed against my skin causing it to bleed. Do not like the new style tongue.

I love Brooks, but these gave me a terrible blister on the back of my lower ankle/heal! Defective? I don’t know.

Glad this shoe worked for most that need support. For me, this was the most uncomfortable run every. The support was so much that it actually hurt my feet and I was in pain for two days.

So disappointed! I have very narrow feet and heels, and have been wearing the GTS series in a 10.5 narrow for years. However, the new GTS 22 has a much stiffer heel counter and a wider heel area, causing extreme rubbing and friction. I am returning them as they aren't usable.
Plus as other reviewers have mentioned, the laces are WAY too short. Plan on buying replacements immediately if you purchase this shoe.
Please tell Brooks to rethink the heel construction of the GTS series!!!
