Customer Reviews Brooks Trace 3

I love that they are light weight and provide the support I need during my training runs.

I have several pairs of excellent, comfortable, walking/runny shoes. These are the most comfortable shoes, ever. The heal is well cushioned. It is Like running on a cloud. Nice arch support, while the instep is pleasantly snug . I have broken my second toe in my right foot several times and my toes have plenty of room without having too much space. I am a walker. My podiatrist recommended these shoes as striders and I can see why. I plan to purchase an additional pair in another color.

Purchased a pair of Trace 3 in the pink/black/orange color combo to match with our HS marching band show this year. I travel with the band and tend to walk a lot during football games and marching contests...up to 13mi in a day. I am wide across the ball of foot/toes area and the Trace 3 fit very, very tight on me, especially compared to my other Brooks shoes. Hoping they will open up some with wear. Very cushiony so am hoping for less tightness in my shins/calves with the distances I walk each weekend.

Good support and lots of cushion. So far I'm loving it. The test will be how I feel in a few months but I'm very hopeful. Very pleased.

Very happy with my purchase. Nice and comfy.

These so comfortable to workout in and just to wear anytime. My feet would be sore after a hard workout but now they feel better after my workouts. I highly recommend them.

Comfortable and look great. Feet feel great all day.

Brooks, by far is the best shoe. I used to wear the Ghost but as I aged my step did too making the Trace a better fit for me. Now if it only came in white!

Love these! I will be a customer for life! The trace 3 has by far been the most comfortable cross fit shoe I have ever used.

Have heel issues. Very supportive and comfortable

I love my Brooks Trace3 Love the color!! Received so many compliments on the hot pink. I have another pair of Brooks as well. Great, comfortable shoe. I have alot of problems with my feet. I highly recommend. I'm so happy they're coming out with these awesome color's!!

I have bought these shoes twice now and have been happy with both purchases. They work great with my orthodic insoles since they are a neutral support, and the padding feels nice and cushy. When I need another set, I will purchase them again.

Easygoing, comfortable fit, less foot pain when worn during work shift versus other brands

Trace 3 is so comfortable! I love this sneaker. The price was reasonable and I love the colors.

Before purchasing any shoe, I read through many reviews and get friends input on what theyve purchased, so due to much positive feedback, I decided to give them a try. I am on my feet for work all day long. I wore these for only 5hrs, and I had to get out of them. I did up a half size, and they fit perfect, but the problem was that there felt like there was absolutely NO cushion. My feet ached so bad that I had to return them; I wasnt going to try them for another day to see if they needed some breaking in because the pain was that unbearable. Friends advised me to buy some insoles, but if I am paying the price for a good shoes, I see no need to alter them.

I really wanted to like this shoe but it wasnt quite for me. After years of just cycling through every brooks model based on what colors I liked, it seems my feet have become a bit more sensitive. I liked that these werent too cushiony and felt like they cradled my foot. However, ultimately the toe box was a bit too narrow for me. A bummer, but because of the stellar customer service at Brooks Im determined to find my Goldilocks model! Hopefully the next pair is the one!

These shoes are not very comfortable. Ive worn them several days, and they are not breaking in for me. They are lightweight & very nice looking, but Im unsure that they will work for me.

I normally wear Brooks Ghost but purchased these because of the fun Pride colors. I am not a fan of the Tracer. At all. Even at a 30% lower price point, they do not have the comfort or support that I would equate with a Brooks product.

I was so hopeful to like the "improvements" made to this updated version from the Trace 2, but ended up returning this pair only to purchase another pair of Trace 2. Trace 3's fit was way too tight width-wise, and I have very narrow feet. Ordering a wide width would be caused too much side to side and heel slippage. Very disappointed that this version of upgrades made my feet so uncomfortable in only 20 minutes of wearing, I could barely stand (and that was even after untying them to wear them as loose as I could. No adjustments helped whatsoever.) Please keep making Trace 2, since this is the only version that fits perfectly and is beyond comfortable.

I love my Brooks! Always a great fit, style and comfort level never fails!!

This is my first time buying Brooks! I have complicated feet, and these shoes felt great right out of the box. The size is true to my size - size 8 medium. The insole is removable for my orthotics, and they have a nice roomy toe. I walk every day; they seem to have a nice springy step. I will be buying more in the future.

Brooks are the first shows that I can wear all day at work and my feet don't hurt at the end of my shift, and walk anywhere from 14,000 to 18000 steps per day!! They are amazing!!

Love my Trace 3. The cushion in the heel area is super. The only thing this shoe needs is a little more cushion in the toe area. ( reason for 4 instead of 5 stars)

I have 3 pair of Brooks running shoes and love all of them. So comfortable and cushy. Makes my running experience much better having good shoes.

I have been running in the Launch series now for some time and have loved those shoes. I have been running outdoors more and with my aging body needed more cushion. I didn't want to add a bunch of weight or lose the feel of the road. The Trace 3 have been perfect. More cushion, great feel, and continued good fit for my high arches and narrow heels.
