These shoes were so uncomfortable! Like hard as rocks to stand on.... They hurt my feet to run in, so I decided I would just keep them as everyday shoes. I wore them once, to my son's cross country meet. I was so ready to be off my feet after an hour of wearing them, just standing around. I can wear my old Brooks, and several other pairs of shoes without this problem (On Cloud, Hoka or flip flops). Not related to the shoes themselves but Brooks in general - I used my first responder discount to order these which caused me to have to pay shipping. When the refund was issued they shipping fee wasn't returned. If I had not been a first responder, I would have gotten free shipping and free returns. So, I feel like I was penalized for being a first responder instead of appreciated (which is the point of offering a discount to start with). Not to mention, the week after I returned the shoes, I was at Academy and saw the same shoes for less than what I paid (with the discount). I will not order from Brooks again! I was disappointed in this entire experience.

I have worn the Adrenaline GTS 21 and then the 22. I've ran 11 marathons so far training with this brand/model. For some reason, the 23 does not work for me. I don't get the same support as I did with the previous versions, so I will search for a different running shoe for this marathon training season.

I have used these shoes for a long time. The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is bc I wish more color combos came in the wide option. It has gotten better but there still isnt enough of a section in wide offerings. Otherwise I love this shoe.

Im a 30+ year New Balance customer.but I require a Narrow width with a hard-to-find balanced support/cushioning shoe. NB discontinued my go-to shoe in Narrow widths (940W in 9.5 AA) & they no longer offer anything outside of exaggerated rocker super cushioned shoes or a pure 100% support running shoe in a Narrow width. So, I tried the Adrenaline GTS in my size and I immediately fell in love after the 1st run. The fit is just like my beloved NB 940W with that perfect balance between support & cushioning. I have a bone spur on one toe that really appreciates the form fitting upper that provides enough support without putting pressure on my big toe. I immediately went back to purchase a 2nd pair since I always like to keep a spare pair of running shoes to rotate in as my primary pair begins to wear out. Looks like after 30 years, Ill be a Brooks customer! Thank you for continuing to innovate AND offer running shoes in Narrow widths! Ill plan to buy only Brooks running shoes for the next 30 years! :-)

Personally, the toe space is too tight for me. Ghost 15 provides more toe space for me.

I bought these hoping they'd help with plantar fasciitis. They actually make my foot worse. They do not have much cushion inside.

Not a runner but I am on my feet 8-10 hours a day for work. My feet were always swollen and sore. Im 67yr old, a 15yr old girl who was a summer hire suggested I try these because she wears them to play volleyball. The first day or two my hips and legs hurt, I realized that the shoes were forcing my feet into a more proper position. After a couple weeks my feet, legs and even lower back are no longer aching. Its almost like an orthopedic effect. Answering the shoe/foot questions before choosing this shoe were so helpful in making sure I got the proper fit and style. Well worth the price, will definitely purchase again

This is my second pair of Adrenaline GTS and I am loving them. My feet feel good while I'm jogging, walking or sprinting AND don't feel as sore after long runs as with other shoes I've had previously. The color combo is great and I love they always look crisp and clean.

Great shoes with stability bar. I use them with my arch support inserts for extra support. Great shoes. I have two pair.

This is my 2nd pair of adrenaline GTS. When I bought my 1st pair, I did the questionnaire and it paired me with this style. I do a Hiit class and walk a lot and these shoes are so comfortable and fit my foot so well even though it is narrow. I have worn Brooks for many years and this style by far has been the best for me.

Very Comfortable shoe. I require a wide width and the way that these are constructed makes them look slim and not boxy which has been the problem with others I have tried on. I love them.

For me with a wide foot, the Adrenaline GTS 23 is absolutely the best fitting and most comfortable all around shoe for me! I wear it for walking, hiking, gardening, shopping and more! I feel it's well made and so is long wearing! Brooks was highly recommended to me by my Physical Therapist, when getting therapy for a meniscus tear around my knee and preparation for knee surgery.
I wanted to make this 2nd purchase at a retail location, like i did originally and could not find the shoes and size I needed, so for my first time purchase directly from Brooks, on-line, my purchase and delivery was an excellent experience.
Thank You! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND !

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
I was surprised with this pair of Brooks to have shared experiences with some other disgruntled reviewers. I’ve worn Brooks running shoes for a long time both as a runner and as someone with multiple foot issues. The shoes were used - lightly soiled soles and missing paper stays. The right shoe felt smaller than the left. It was significant enough that I, like another reviewer checked the size tags inside the shoes. Because of that the right shoe didn’t fit, and the left didn’t fit like I’m used to Brooks fitting. I don’t know about function or comfort because I wasn’t able to even walk across the room in them. I hope this isn’t a permanent change because I was excited to find running shoes with carbon struts and that are certified to be covered by Medicaid and other health insurance for diabetics. (I’m not a diabetic, but I need a similarly built shoe.)

I had foot surgery 6 yrs ago. I have tried so many brands of shoes but none of them felt as good as my Brooks. I tried my daughters on and then I ordered my first pair. I can wear them all day. When I take them off my feet don't cramp or hurt as with my other shoes. I have shoe inserts which I don't wear with my Brooks. The support and comfort is just what my feet ordered!

It's a nice shoe, the colors aviable are lovely with darker nutural colors. A little tight in the toe box.

Comfortable, cushioned. I'm using them mainly for walking. Important for my toes that the toe box doesn't bend upward, like some athletic shoes do. I love Brooks shoes! Highly recommended by podiatrists!

The perfect shoe for walking & running. The toe area seem more stable, snug but not confining. You also dont feel the impact of the ground when running. I love it! After walking & running for an hour, my feet doesnt feel tired & sore like it usually does. Will buy again for sure!

The shoes are for a family member who started a delivery job. Feet were aching after the first 2 days on the job due to poor shoes. Foot muscles were inflamed causing missed work days. After a visit to the podiatrist for insoles and wearing the new Brooks shoes, the problem was solved. I will be ordering another pair for my family member!

This is my 3rd or 4th pair of Adrenaline GTS 23! I would love to say that I am a runner, but I am not. I have plantar fasciitis in my feet and these were recommended to me years ago by my podiatrist. They are awesome, last well (I wear them basically everyday and all day.), my orthotics fit nicely, and I never have heal pain. These are great! I am very glad I can still get the basic white too. I am not into the trendy colors and want something that will go with whatever I am wearing. Keep making this awesome shoe!!! Thanks SO much!
