I returned the shoes, it feels flat. not as cushiony or good as Ghost and Glycerin that I usually buy. I thought of trying other models but it's not working for me.

Nice looking but not enough support. Not as comfortable as other Brooks shoes. The price was right but the shoes were not. They are not as heavy as others with more support which was a positive.

I really like the look of the shoe but unfortunately it had an indent on the front, it made it uncomfortable on the inside. I ended up getting a replacement and the replacement has the same indent so it must be the design of this shoe. I'm really disappointed because I really love the way they look and this is my first pair of brooks.

The best way to describe the fit is "uncomfortable" which was a surprise.

This style seems more stiff and tight in the toes than others I have worn. By the end of a 12 hour shift my toes were sore, and I can usually go all day without pain in Brooks.

Meh they are ok. They feel more like stiff cardboard rather than firm support. I love the color options and I can tell it's a sturdy made shoe it's just not something I would buy again. I don't feel like my arch is supported enough for impact exercise but they do ok for work/walking.

This is not the Brooke shoe that I normally order. I was trying to save some money. These shoes do not have the best cushioning or arch support. I would not order them again.

Love the look but it doesn't have the cushion that I need to run in. I will use these for regular workouts

I like the shoes but the front toe area “cracks” it makes weird noses and feels like they are cracking.. but the noise goes away after awhile.

I was used to the Launch and Ghost Brooks running shoes and got these because I loved the design. I did not think there'd be much of a difference but there are a few issues. The toe is much more narrow on these and they are much heavier than the Launch. They don't have much spring to them and I'm not sure they will hold up the same as my last three pairs. Will most likely go back to the Launch or Ghost designs no matter the look.

I absolutely love the fun colors for a fresh look. But the overall support is lacking in the front of the foot. The heel is so well supported but the soft front of the shoe allows my foot to roll slightly out when walking. I don't have this happen with my Keens or Merrills but this is the 2nd pair of Brooks that just won't last the day on my feet being comfortable.

I wanted to love these shoes, I’ve worn a lot of Brooks but the toe box wrinkled. After trying them on at home, everything seemed fine. They’re lightweight, true to size (I wear an 11, medium width), and felt appropriately supportive then I wore them for a day. I expected the fabric to wrinkle a little but these…they hurt. The right toe box digs so hard into my big toe that I have to curl my toe back while walking. I thought they might relax after wearing them daily but nothing helps. I’m very disappointed and just bought a different brand shoe to replace these.

I just feel the support isn't there :( The Trace feels flimsy. I am a GHOST 13 lover !! They were perfect. I am so sad the Ghost 13 went away. I am nurse and I works long 12 hour shifts on my feet. Brooks have been my GO TO shoe for over a decade !! Now I cant seem to find one that works.

These are gorgeous looking. I need more of a drop with shoes and more cushion. I'm sad to have to return them, but they're just not comfortable enough for my foot issues.

The shoe is very comfortable, but did not offer support to keep my foot from rolling within the shoe.

So, I love my Trace shoes, and have 2 pairs, so I was excited to try the Trace 2, but they hurt my toes, felt tighter in my toes than my original Trace pairs.

The plastic around the toes are cracked or something, very uncomfortable at times walking. Should have sent them back for another pair but wore them to see if it would get better. Is still annoying when working out in them.
