4.2 I could be a brand ambassador, as I have about 11 pairs of the brooks adrenaline gts starting with the gts21 model. The gts22 is very comfy maybe a bit more toe room but i have very narrow feet, still does not bother me. These have great arch support. I suffer from fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis which makes my feet hurt awful. The adrenaline line are the only shoes that help me. Only complaint is the shoelaces. Please brooks go back to the gts21 tube style laces as the new ones are very hard for arthritic fingers!!! Otherwise would rate 5 stars.

These are the most comfortable and supportive shoe Ive ever worn. I highly recommend them to all my patients. The minute you try them on you can feel the support which most shoes are missing.

I ordered in a wide width, and it was still extremely tight. I can usually wear a 9 1/2, but the Adrenaline GTS 23 was cut very short and narrow in the toe box. My toe punched the tip of the shoe. The cut is very narrow and small. It also came with a clump of glue stuck on the outside near the toe area. The shoe is constructed with a very thin material. This is better as a summer shoe when it doesn't rain. The shoe is over-priced at $140. I bought shoes for $50 that were made better.

I love Brooks sneakers. I have had at least 10 pair in the last 3 years. The have made a BIG difference in my knee pain. I bought 2 pairs of the Glycerin recently. The problem I am having that I have never had before is I cannot get the shoestrings to stay tied. They come untied at least 8 plus times a day. Is there any other shoestrings I can get that will not do this. Thank you for a great line of sneakers!!

I have a bunion on one foot and its hard for me to find a shoe that I can still run in without too much foot pain, finally trying the Adrenaline GTS23 Wide worked beautifully! My only complaint is that I wish they came in more colors for the wide.

I've been wearing Brrooks brand for years. This shoe is not the quality I'm used to. The heal is not comfortable and the laces are too short. Please consider changing back to the old laces. I do appreciate being able to find wider shoes for women and the support.

I love love love these shoes. Switched to Hokas for a few pair but so glad to switch back. Fit so true to size and no foot pain. I do put in Tulis as the inserts that come with the shoe are worthless. But that is true for every running shoe. So far these have lived up to my high expectations!

These are great for my work as a PT. They give me enough arch support and cushion for walking and standing all day. I gave 4 stars because they arent comfortable for running longer distances for me. I love the style and they serve my purpose at work!

Its a well-built shoe that provides great cushioning and support in last a very long time. The last pair is still in good working condition. I just wanted to get ready for spring time. Great shoe at the reasonable price

great shoe always order but lately the shoe laces are cheap. They come untied every time I run. I have resorted to removing the new laces and adding my old shoes laces.

I have been wearing this shoe for years and with this model I noticed that it feels more snug and the shoelaces are too short. Otherwise, it is comfortable and high quality as to be expected with Brooks. I still would recommend this shoe.

Long time wearer of Adrenalines but something about this iteration is off...there is little to no support and your foot seems to slip to the front of the shoe. The toe box is unforgiving (potentially defunct from the recycled materials being used?). I have never had an issue until the 23 and unfortunately lost 3 toenails during nyc marathon due to this issue.

I purchased the Alloy/Blue/Green (but it might as well be called the Grey with Navy trim) :-). My only complaint with this shoe is that it came with the shortest shoelaces I have ever seen in any sneaker (and I've ordered hundreds of different brands). I have one foot that swells slightly. When that foot is swollen the shoelace cannot be tied. Unfortunately, the lace color matches the swoosh color, so I cannot just go out and buy a longer shoelace in the same color. Other than that, it's a decent shoe.

Ive been wearing Adrenaline for close to 10 years. Within two days of wearing these I developed plantar fasciitis. Ive been having pain and sleeping in braces for 4 months trying to fix what two days of wearing these terrible shoes did. I dont think I will ever trust Adrenalines in the future.

So I've been wearing the Adrenaline GTS since the 21s (which were the best of those I've tried by a very long shot). I bought a pair of the 22s last year, and they're okay. They had the larger thing on the heel, which reduced my joy in them over the 21s, but c'est la vie. So, when I needed new shoes this time around I bought some 22s as well as some 23s to see which I preferred, after reading all of the reviews (will send back the less preferable of the two). I have duck feet--narrow heel, wide up front. For me, the 23s have a much roomier heel area. As in, it's kind of baggy back there and while my heel isn't slipping at this point, it's not feeling too secure either, which was one of the things I most appreciated about the Adrenaline line. They feel wider in the toe box area, too, and it makes me wonder if I should have gone down a size. For dress type shoes I typically where a 6.5 in narrower brands and sometimes a 6 with certain wider styles. In running shoes, including Adrenaline, a standard 6 works. These feel roomier (particularly on the right shoe, which may be an adjustment thing) all around, especially the heel and the mesh portion of the front. Will be keeping one pair of the 23s for day-to-day use for the color, so interested in what they wear like over the long term. But, for running, I'm going to stick with the 22s again for a bit longer.

I have been a big fan of the Adrenaline for many years because of the solid arch area. I put in my own custom soles and am good to go--they give me the lightweight stability I need like no other running/walking shoe can. However, these run very small (I normally am a 9.5 in other shoes and need an 11 in these), and they wear out fairly fast--the fabric on the top wears holes in it.

Best shoes money can buy. I read reviews and certainly don't understand how this could be the case. However, for me and my 60 yr young feet, they are awesome. Helps with stability and comfort. I am a verified buyer and do not receive commission, not even a coupon but I wish I did. GTS 23 us for me and my work family.

I love these shoes, very supportive. I would have rated 5, but they don't offer the wide width in a variation of colors.

Snug fit and the laces seem not very sturdy, and definitely a bit short for my average arch.

I've been buying the Adrenaline style for over a decade and it just keeps getting better and better! The 23 style is very lightweight and still offers excellent stability during my run. I recommend Brooks to anyone shopping for new workout shoes. Those trendy brands will come and go. Brooks has been making shoes for over 100 years; est. 1914. Plus the customer service staff know their stuff and are very helpful if you're considering a new style. I bought the Levitate Stealthfit in the past but went back to the Adrenaline for its comfort and dependability. I have a narrow foot and there are only two color choices. Hey Brooks, please offer more color options for those of us that shop for a narrow width; four (4) stars reflect the limited color selection in Narrow.
