Customer Reviews Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23

Great soft running shoes. I have naturally low arches and they seem to be a good balance of support and cushion for my feet.

I had the gray pair. Aesthetics are greatly improved from 22. The fit about the midtarsal joint is slightly more disproportionate from previous, however the shoe feel lighter. Overall very happy with the purchase.

The 23s are AMAZING. My running has increased and I feel like this shoe perfectly fits my foot and provides the stability and comfort I need to run.

I love them even more than my previous adrenaline GTS 22s!

Can immediately feel the support of the guide rail. Great quality shoe definitely need Brooks socks for heel.

I never thought shoe laces could be messed up, but I was wrong. The material used for the laces on the Adrenaline GTS 23 is VERY cheap. They are not made of the usual shoe lace material (cloth/string?) but is instead some incredibly slick material that constantly becomes untied no matter how tight I tie the knot. The first couple of times they became untied, I thought I had just not tied the knot tight enough. However, at that point I started paying attention to how tight I tied the knot, but they still came untied. I know this sounds crazy and trivial, but it's incredibly annoying. For a $100+ shoe, I would expect better quality. I have purchased the Adrenaline style going back to the GTS 7. I don't but a new pair each year, but perhaps every two years, so I do not know when they changed the type of laces used. Otherwise, it's a very good shoe. I never gave a second thought about shoe laces until this pair of Adrenaline GTS 23. Add the cost of a pair of shoe laces to the price of the shoes. You're going to need them.

This is my 4th pair. I've had 19,20,22 and now 23. The 19 seemed small the 20 & 22 were perfect with good cushion especially the 22. The 23 as soon as I opened the box i was worried . the fit was different and no cush!. Maybe I'm just 5 years older? IDK

I have been a Brooks girl for a long time and bought several pairs of different styles/years and was excited about getting this pair but after a few hours on my feet I could not stand the pain. I loved the look of it but they're going back

Love the sole and its soft cloudy feel. The problem is that the uppers now have a hole where my big toe apparently rubs against it. Everything else is perfect.

They are very supportive on the sides and lock on the heel pretty good. The problem with me is they have a very flat response upon impact. My knees tend to feel it more than with my older Anthem 5's which are way more responsive upon impact. I also didn't care for the treads as they are pretty noisy on asphalt.

With my previous Adrenaline GTS purchases, I could wear shoes very comfortably right out of box with no second thoughts. The new model 23 not so. They're ok, but not at all like previous models. It sometimes amazes me how the transition from one model to next, newer version changes the feel and comfort so dramatically.

I am a walker. I was disappointed in the arch support and support at the toe area. The heel support is very good. The fit on the width of the shoe is fine. I tried to wear them a few times to hope they work themselves into my foot structure, but it never happened. I was hoping for an alternative (to my existing Hoka's) that I could use for my walking. That didn't happen. I will go back to my Hoka's. If I could, I'd return them. Too bad for me.

I'm thinking the Ghost line works better for me. The Adrenaline seems to tip to the side too easily.

I'm still trying to give these shoes a chance. The toe box is a little tight and the ball of my foot is hurting after runs/walks. My adrenaline 21's were/are perfect, but I've worn them for years. Hoping these 23's just need more time to break in.

I bought these to replace a pair of Adrenalins. Relative to my prior pair these were quite narrow and did not allow the toe clearance that I had before. I returned them for a refund. I then purchased a pair of Beast GTS 23s. These fit better, but toe box is extremely roomy. They feel more like bedroom slippers than running shoes. The inserts are very soft, much more so than previous Brooks shoes. I rate these as 4 stars, but in future will go to a store for fitting rather than the haphazard fittings of mail delivery. Review below is for Beasts.

These shoes are not as comfortable as the ghost. I like the colors that were available at my size therefore that's why I bought them.

After years (approximately 12-15) of wearing the Adrenaline line, including 4 years using for Pickleball, I must say that the soles on the 23 are wearing out much, much quicker than any other year. What has changed with the composition of the soles?

They were poorly sewn and hurt my feet. I have worn this adrenaline gts 21 and 22 before the 23 hurt because of being poorly sewn and too snug This was the left shoe. I loved the ghost 12. I've been happy with Brooks shoes before this shoe.

I'm a big dude. This version feels like it has a different insole. I'm about 325 the heel is a lot squishier than the 22s. I don't think they will last me very long. Sadly I returned them.

3rd pair of Brooks. I'm not a runner but work out every day on Elyptical and walk l-2 miles. They are very comfortable and provide good support to my fused left ankle and surgery repaired right heel. My only negative take away would be that I wish I'd purchased a darker color that didn't show dirt as much.

I really really think if it wasn't because it hurts my toes, they'd be the perfect shoe. Everything else feels great! But my toes do matter.
