I have arthritis in my ankle and the orthopedic doctor advised to get better sneakers and specifically named Brooks. He said to get several pairs and rotate them. It has been great advice. My ankles are much less sore and my workouts more comfortable.

Greatest shoe ever. Use it for work walking on concrete and asphalt 15000 steps a day. I have tried all major brands and this shoe is the best

As an Orthodontist I am constantly walking from chair to chair and around the office. These offer good support and cushioning. Very pleased with them

I dont know how I got away from brooks beast. actually I do. an ortho who put a screw in my sons foot said HOKAs are the closest thing to a boot you can wear. I got a few pair. I never really liked the HOKAs . in my old age I forget a lot of stuff. it was not until my wife got a pair of brooks that I said AHA, I used to wear the Beast , 3 pair over several years and they were the greatest. I am so glad to be back . they feel so secure . Hey , they're made for persons with big feet , high arches, how about some longer strings?

I am a heavy person and beast is the only shoe I have worn for many years I do agree with on person who complained about the dimples at front of shoe. I use for walking and everyday use I alternate between two pairs.. just wish they were a little bit lower in price as I live on SS

I have a terrible left foot. Hammer toes in both, neuropathy in left foot. The podiatrist gave me orthotics and told me to get the Beast. This shoe gives me tremendous support which I needed. It is a bit heavier than other models, but for me it is amazing and helps my orthotics stay in place. As a result, my pain is gone and I am walking much better. Thank you Brooks and the Beast GTS23

Comfortable but not too soft. It's great for the road and for long periods of standing where you need great support and cushion. It's a bit heavier than my Glycerin GTS but that is to be expected with the extra foam. Overall one of my new favorite shoes for road running and I highly recommend it!

I've been running in Brooks Beast shoes since 2000. If this doesn't make a statement, I don't know what will.

I love the width of the shoe! It's hard for me to find wide enough shoes that are also comfortable and supportive. And they look amazing!

Great shoe for my walk. Cushioning very good. Very stable shoe. A little snug but it should be fine with full break in. I may get a wider Beast next time. The Beast is a keeper. Very happy with it. Heavy old timer here.

I have flat feet, bunions, wide feet. This shoe makes me forget all that. I've been wearing the Beast and Addiction for about 12 years or so. I have no intention of changing.

These are my forth pair of Beast. I do ware a size 12 1/2 ee but the 13 ee is much better for my foot. The fit is nice and stay comfortable all day. What more can you ask of a shoe.

These sneakers are the most comfortable and supportive shoes I have owned. At 88 years old, they keep me moving!!! The company and customer service are fantastic too. I had an issue with sizing and they rushed the correct pair out to me! Don't hesitate to Buy Brooks!

Great shoes for standing or walking (street/treadmill), especially if you require good arch support.

The Beast is the best shoe for men with wide feet. I only wish that they offered it in more colors. The fit is perfect, and Brooks' return policy is awesome. What more can I say!

Thank you so much for making the 23 Beast in a SOLID BLACK! There are so many of us with foot/pronation problems that don't want a shoe for running - but need more dressy looking supportive shoes to wear every day, not just for athletic use, and do not want to have to buy orthopedic shoes - and the solid black Beast is perfect. I have been wearing the Beast for years, buying 2 at a time, 1 for indoor use and 1 for outdoor use since my podiatrist told me Brooks are the best. And thanks for making 4E's! I am placing another order today!
