Fits true to size, very comfortable, and excellent airflow with material allowing my feet to breathe and not feel hot after long almost 13 hour shifts!

I knew this wouldn't ride the same as the Ghost, they're very light. Not quite as much toe room or support but I had a PR on my first run. I wouldn't personally run more than 7-8 miles in them but they should be great 5k racing shoes. I'm in my 40s running 9-10mm, 60+ miles a week, I think that's relevant. Super stylish though! They'd be fine as my daily walking/work shoes.

So sorry (and shocked) to report that the quality of these Brooks shoes is terrible!! In less than two months, the inside fabric was torn/worn off on both heels, and the arch support is so bad in the left shoe that I have ankle and foot pain whenever I wear them for walks of more than 1 mile. :( They are essentially trash at this point. I've always loved Brooks should, but I would NOT recommend these.

The Revels tend to run a whole size smaller on me. I size up to an 8 in athletic shoes but the Revels I need an 8.5. I got the lavender/black and I love them. I own lots of Brooks but the Revels are my least favorite for comfort. I buy this style for causal days/running errands. There is little to no arch support so consider adding in a good insert for these as Brooks has been cheaping out on their footbeds (and shoe laces) in the last few years. TLDR: don’t pay full-price for these and size up.

Best shoe I've ever had! Love the feel on my high arch foot. I wanted another but they are mostly gone now.

These took awhile to break in but have become more comfortable with wear. Followed recommendations to order a half size up and was not disappointed. Not a particularly supportive or cushy shoe, but good enough for daily walks with my dog in the neighborhood.

These shoes are awesome! Just for context, I've always been a Brooks runner. I've completed 4 half marathons on the Glycerin. After I had my baby, I took a break from running, and I'm just getting back into it at a slow pace. My goals are more a walk/run mix, and these have been great so far. Supportive, but also energizing, and the price is great! I'm a size 11, but always buy up a full size for foot swelling.

Never met a Brooks I didn't like. These are no different. I have a high instep and a high arch. These feel great but to be fair I also have Birkenstock inserts in every pair of athletic shoes I wear. I have a very wide foot and these are crazy comfy esp in the toe box. The mesh-y weave is FAB! Use them for gym work but also sprinting & jump rope, etc. I wear a 7 1/2 and get the Medium even though I have a wide foot. Feels fantastic!

Aero Tech, Bette & Court, Under Armour

I ordered a size 9 in this shoe since it's my favorite model. When my order came in it was a size 6 of the Adrenaline model!!!! I had to return since I could never fit in a 6 and I am not a fan of the Adrenaline. Not sure how the Brooks QC works over there in shipping but I was very disappointed at such a blatant error.

I has to return them because they were way too small. Im a runner and the only shoes I run in are the Brooks Revel. I alaays get a 7.5 sizing and 1B width. It's like clockwork. For some reason, that size was too small when they arrived. I had to return them and will have to get a larger size. I'm not sure if they changed the sizes or if I just received an odd shoe? My previous Brooks Revel 7.5 still fits just fine so I know it wasn't my feet getting bigger. Not sure what the issue was.
