I wear these shoes to work everyday as an ER nurse and they provide great support and comfort while Im on my feet a lot. They took a couple weeks to break in but now feel like a dream.

Width is just right. Love the look. I wish the shoe laces were longer. Feel of the shoe is great, Im not a runner but walking in them feels right. I have arch supports in these shoes which makes them feel a little bit less roomy but I know they are just right

I am not a fan of the 23s. Insoles feel thin and are not as comfortable as the 22s were. Never had any blisters with 22s but have a huge one on my big toe after only wearing these a few times. Will continue to wear my 22s more often.

I recently found out I have mid foot arthritis in both of my feet. A shoe that has good support was recommended. I tried the Adrenaline GTS 23 wide and liked how they felt for the most part. However, I developed blisters and callouses on the outside edges of both feet within days. I was so disappointed. I went to another brand and found a shoe that offered support, but I felt like I was clomping around in them. After two weeks, on a hopeful hunch, I went online to Brooksrunning.com and was delighted to find that my first choice, Adrenaline GTS 23 is available in an additional width. I ordered it hoping the additional width would eliminate the blister and callous issues. I have had them almost three days and so far so good. So... my take on these shoes is that they really support the feet and feel good, even with inserts. However they tend to run a bit narrow in the arch areas to the base of the toes. You may need to go wider than you typically do.

I love these shoes but these ones definitely aren't as comfortable as I remember them to be. I have to break them in a little, I never had to in the past.

My last pair of Brooks. I've had a number of Brooks over the years and like the fit, feel and finish of their shoes. But after all their "latest technology" and sophisticated advertising, I simply will not buy another pair of shoes from a company that can't manage to produce shoe laces that stay tied. Every single pair of Brooks I've had has this problem. I can tie the laces tight and within a short time they come untied. Growing up in the 70's I wore cheap Jack Purcells. Never had an issue with laces staying tied. When I'm paying north of $100 I want a shoe lace that stays tied.

I have worn the adrenaline for years as a stability shoe that comes in a wide women's. I use them for walking, I don't run. These have again the wide toes box both height and width. I am okay with the guide rail system. I started adrenalines when they used medial posting. I have always found I like odd number years better than even, but the 22's were the worst ever. Hurt my feet like never before, gone was the roomy toe box. So I appreciate some of the changes they made in the 23 and these seem to perform more like adrenalines I was used to.

My Adrenaline GTS 22's are nice and cushy underfoot, very important to my feet. My new GTS 23's are not as cushy or comfortable, but they're wearable.
Please make more colors (besides gray and black) for those of us with big and extra-wide feet.

I need a lot of arch support! Adrenaline provides a decent amount of support which helps reduce pain I have with plantar fasciitis. These shoes are usually my go to on days when Im going to spend long hours on my feet!

These shoes are comfortable but I have never had a pair of shoes this slick in my entire life. I can feel myself sliding while standing still on a flat surface. Im honestly afraid to wear these to run in any gym.

Great shoe and I loved the color but they were very uncomfortable for me. The 22s were much softer and overall were a much better fit especially in the heels.

I purchased the Adrenaline 23 after trying at least 10 other shoes and am so happy with them. I haven't run in several years and have plantar fasciitis, so was a bit nervous about training again. These shoes support my feet beautifully and my plantar fasciitis has not bothered me at all through the 2 months I've been running. I always double-tie laces on footwear, so have no issue with the flat laces. I am 62 and not in great shape - these shoes are a godsend!! My 6-7 mile runs take as long as most peoples 15-20 miles, so I spend a lot of time in my Adrenaline 23s!

I dont start my half marathon training programs without a new pair of Brooks Adrenaline GTS shoes. After 7+ years of training in this shoe, the 2023 version does not disappoint. I love that Brooks only makes minor adjustments year to year, if at all. Which means one of my favorite features is that there is no break-in period necessary. I can get them right out of the box and jump into training with them. The shoe is stabilizing without being too heavy. The toe box is large enough that I have room to splay my toes when running without them rubbing against the sides or top. I do have to size up half a size but my heel doesnt slip out the back. There are always a lot of color options if thats important to you. I can easily put 400 miles on these shoes before having to start to think about replacing them. Overall, these shoes last, will get you where you need to go, and wont let you down!

I dont want to take them off. My wife insisted I do so before I go to bed. Oh well, there is always tomorrow. I highly recommend these.

I purchased the Crystal Gray/Villa/White and love it! It was even better in person. It offered great support and comfort for my feet. Im on my feet all day as a physical therapist, so quality shoes are essential for me.

The Adrenaline GTS 23 are absolutely fantastic! Ive been purchasing the GTS line for many years and will definitely continue. I found issues with The GTS 22 I initially purchased, however, Brooks customer service provided full support for a resolution. They are an awesome line of running shoes as I can wear them right out if the box. I have issues with my feet and the guide rails in the Adrenaline GTS provides the support I need to enjoy wearing them. I also commend the Brooks customer service team in providing complete customer service and support.

The Adrenaline GTS 23 is my go to shoe. I have 3 pairone for the treadmill, two I rotate for trail and street runs/walks. I love the GTS support and the shoe fits my foot (wider toe box/narrower heel) perfectly. I need a heel lift and custom orthotics and they fit easily. My ortho surgeon noted that my spine has improved since I switched to Brooks. Thats all the recommendation I need.

I got the light bluish color which I love!
The new Adrenaline 23 are very comfortable and as I got a wide shoe to try, this version was new to me but I enjoy the extra toe room. They fit nice and my feet are always comfortable, (must admit while I dont run anymore, I do wear them for up to 12 hours a day and my feet never hurt! ) I am a total Brooks fan and have many other styles that I rotate through! You cant go wrong with their shoes, worth the extra price for sure! If you run you cant go wrong with Brooks!

Have worn size 7 1/2 in Brooks shoes forever, including the Adrenalines. At first I felt like my big toe was up against the front end of the shoe. But, they did stretch out and see, to fit ok. They are ok, nothing special. I think my Adrenaline 22s were a more comfortable fit right out the box. Hopefully, these will give a little and become more comfy over time.
