Customer Reviews Brooks Revel 5

Not as supportive as my other Brooks. Tongue is too short, wouldn't purchase again.

They look really nice. They did take several days to get wore in and not hurt my feet. They really made my heels burn the first few times I walked on the treadmill. I probably should have sized up to make them more comfortable - I normally get a half size bigger but I should have gone up a full size.

A whole 1.5" difference from my other 2 pairs of brooks so I returned.

I love your shoes!! I am not a runner, but I walk. And I also have bunions and your shoes allow me to buy a pair and slip right into them and start walking. Thank you! Now, can you do them in a great red with a white or black sole? ?

I love these running shoes. They fit comfortably and are wearing nice.

Revel 5 didn't work for me. This is not to say it's a bad shoe, this is just saying - didn't work right for my feet. Felt fine at the bottom where my usual problems lie (plantar fasciitis), but I couldn't get the laces to be just right - they were either too tight and cutting off the circulation, or too loose with my heel moving up and down inside the shoe. I have very high arches and plump feet, and I need a ton of cushion. Revel 5 model hurt my foot at the top where the shoe tongue's edge was rubbing against it. I will be returning them and sticking to Range 2 instead.

Let me start by staying I love my black cheetah revel 5s so much. I have had 4 knee surgeries on top of flat narrow feet and these shoes finally make my feet feel great. I got the purple cheetah thinking they would fit the same but no. They just aren't as comfortable the cushion seems different. I bought the Heather/grapemist color just the other day and it's like a completely different shoe. it sags on the side and the shape at the toe is different. I refuse to keep buying different colors just to hope one fits as good as the first.

I like them. I had previously been loyal to the Launches but after the 8s were way too roomy - it was time to try something different. I was hesitant after reading some reviews but I find the Revel 5 to be very comfortable and supportive. I use them for walking and strength training work outs. I find that my foot doesn't slide around in the shoe. They look great and are light weight. I'm definitely satisfied with my decision

Comfortable even after a 11 hour shift. I love all my Brooks.

Awesome look, light weight and great support.

I wear my shoes to work. They are very comfortable. My feet swell, so these are in my rotation of brooks work shoes. Love the colors

I've purchased Revel 5 shoes before, so I figured ordering the same size I've always bought was a sure bet. No. No it was not. I'm not sure if it's because of the color (cheetah), or what, but these were definitely half a size smaller than my other 5's. My plantaris fasciitis didn't act up nearly as bad but my toes were rubbing against the tip of the shoes so I had to return them.

This shoe is pretty comfortable with the exception of inside heel collars of the shoe. They don't quite hit my foot correctly and rub the inside of my foot which maked them sore after my run. I also have a mortons neuroma and these shoes work pretty well with it.

They are Brooks so they are good, comfortable. OK design. Bought because they were on sale. I like a style with a bit more of a foot shape.

It is a decent running shoe. I do not like the width, to big, the laces and top part of the shoe seems too long and causes pain. I like to have my shoe tight with the laces and I can't do this with this shoe. I prefer a solid color shoe, all black is beautiful but you didn't have any. I prefer my Brooks 20+ yr old shoe even though it is 2 tone color shoe. Would you happen to have any older shoes still in stock? Runners like snug fit shoes and now it looks warped because it is too wide. I do not like the cushion on some of the other shoes, this one seems closer to the cross fit training shoes which I like, so maybe a thinner cushion with more shock absorbent fibers added. Each persons foot is different, so not every shoe will work with every person unless there is a way to fit each shoe to each person. It is a decent running shoe and I will continue to run with it until I find another running shoe that I like.

I love my existing Revel 5's so much I bought these as a backup pair. They are supportive but not overly stiff and the medium width is just wide enough to accommodate my somewhat wide feet. I use them for a moderate mileage daily trainer and in road 5ks as well. Would not recommend if you need a lot of traction (ie trails).
