I really like the Brooks Adrenaline - it feels like a supportive orthopedic shoe, but not with the heaviness. The GTS support is great if you have any pronation or supination. This is the GTS model of the Ghost which I have used for several years. I tore my meniscus six months ago and really like walking in these!

Very supportive shoe! Nice contrast between the body of the shoe (very pale gray) and the soul which is black. I always have to order up 1/2 size larger when ordering Brookes. A great running/walking shoe.

Ordered these first in medium width, way to wide for my narrow foot. Went back and ordered narrow and they fit great. Didn’t have a lot of choices for narrow size, but I like the ones I ended up with.

Love the Brooks Adrenaline! And finally they have two colors in the 6 extra wide. I wear these to work in the hospital and to the gym. More colors, please.
These are one of the few sneakers that I can wear all day with no complaints.

I have run 1000 miles in my Brooks Adrenaline XX (Roman Numeral 20) shoes and I love them. Ran 7.25 miles today. I ordered the Adrenaline 23’s in the same size and they are WAY too small. What’s up with that? I have to return them.

Back to my tried and true Brooks Adrenaline. This pair fits and feels like many earlier models. Great cushioning and looking forward to walking many miles.

I really love the color combo (black/gunmetal/sharp green). They appear to be well made and supportive. However, I think the Adrenaline 23 runs shorter than the Adrenaline 22. I am comfortable in the 22 in a size 9 wide; in the 23, my toes were right up to the end of the shoe. Ended up exchanging for the 9.5 wide which seems a little large, but I am hoping for the best!

I had a pair of the Adrenaline GTS 23. The bottoms of my feet hurt after wearing them. I had an analysis done and discovered I should be wearing wide width. The wide feels so much better and my feet have more room.

These shoes are so light and have good cushion and support. Like all my other Brooks running shoes, I don’t experience any pain in my arthritic knees.

I appreciate being able to buy these in solid black. Overall, still a good purchase but the 23 doesn’t seem as well cushioned or as comfortable as previous models. They do the job but I hope the next model will feel like the older ones.

Huge toe box. I like a lot of room in the toe box but this was just too much.

I've been wearing the adrenaline's for years always the same size and for some reason these 23's feel bigger or wider! My foot doesn't look as small in the 23's. I pulled the laces tighter bit ended up with a crease between the bottom 2 eyelets. I'd rather go back to the 21's or the 22's. Still very unhappy with the fact nurses were dropped from the discount!! Not buying near as many!

These are the *most breathable* running shoes I've ever worn! Paired with my Ghost quarter socks, I can't believe how much air I can feel through the mesh when I walk/run. Very light, but feel less stable/rigid in the inner ankle than my previous Brooks (to combat overpronation). Sleeker design than other Brooks models I've worn/seen before. Ordered women's size 9.5 W.

22s were better :( these do not feel as cushiony as last year's. Still like them but don't love love them. Heel cup is a littler shorter too which at first I found annoying but seems to help with the shoe trying to eat the back of your socks. Overall good but prefer the 22s.

This is a fantastic show, the heel stability is some of the best I've ever felt. The heel cushion and overall support were fantastic. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the forefoot cushioning felt very light. I felt like I could feel small/medium rocks through the forefoot and wasn't as pleased with that. My right foot has some chronic pain in the forefoot that goes away once I'm warmed up or doesn't happen at all with great support or short/light rums. Unfortunately I felt that little pain in these shoes at the start of each run and it took me a long time to get warmed up. Looking at another brooks model with more forefoot support. Definitely get them if you're looking for a mid support, very stable shoe!

Previously, I had purchased one size larger, as the description suggests. That was just a bit too large, so this time I ordered my usual size. Too small. Unfortunately, there are no half sizes, so I went up one size again. They have excellent support, are super comfortable, and I love the style.

These are nice but I prefer the Ghost 15. These are still good for walking and doing things like running errands or shopping.

Great support and cushion. However, there is a blade on the medial toe that is creating a barrier for toe spread. The edge cuts a bit too tightly. These arent in the ghost. Other thab that they are comfortable and eveb cute in shape. Will buy again.

I wear my Adrenalines for gym workouts and have started to notice the bottom tread peeling up and has tripped me up several times when it catches on the ground. Comfy shoes, just wish they would last more than a 3-6 months before needing to glue them to keep using.

Very sad I ordered these from the same page I ordered my GTS 22 on in the white! But did not realize the white pair was the GTS 23, so there is a bit of a difference. I sized up a size and chose wide, there are still a bit narrow and tight in the front area. The 23 are lower in the back and have short short short shoe strings it is quite annoying, I originally got on the Brooks wagon after a major ankle surgery and fell in love with the GTS 22 due to comfort and support and totally wish the all white pair was offered in the 22 but the 23 will have to do due to specific requirements of me needing that color and support still.

Overall, really good shoe but it seems like the laces are short especially for anyone who wears orthotic inserts.
