Customer Reviews Brooks Beast GTS 24

I like the Books Beast. I just purchased my second pair of shoes. I Noticed the toe box are much more narrow compared to GTS 23. I wish Brooks would make a variety of other styles in extra wide. They only had three pairs shoes In extra wide and advised me that's all Brooks makes. Not a very good selection and accommodating for people who have wide feet. I have wide feet and neuropathy in both of my feet. The tighter the fit worst my feet feel. Please consider and I am sure not the only one. Thanks.

The shoes fit really well and offer great support

I have been a Brooks fan for years now, more a fan of Glycerin specifically. I just tried the Beast to get a little more stability and I love it! Great shoe for walking and running - maximum comfort and stability!!

Excellent so far, hoping it continues

Great shoes! Work well for what I need!

Its as good as previous versions

My favorite shoe, wear it all the time except hiking or skiing

Not as comfortable as my old pair of Brooks Adrenaline shoes which look surprisingly similar to the GTS24 but the GTS24 has more heel support which I need. The medium width of my GTS24 could have been just a smidgen bit wider at the toe. Perhaps they will stretch out in time. The Adrenaline fit perfect when new and at the same size.

Good shoe would like more current colors.

Very satisfied these are my third pair of the Beast shoes do a lot of walking for excercize find them to have excellent support usually last about a year then retire them to lawn mowing shoes

Very comfortable shoe that feels stable and looks great too.

Started off purchasing 1 pair to see how they compared to my husbands other beast shoes. He thought they were okay and we ordered another pair in a different color. The 2nd pair fit completely different in a good way. They were bigger though the same size in fit and now he wont wear the originals because the fit of the 2nd pair fit better. So sizing is inconsistent and for the price that shouldnt be a problem. Now Im scared to buy more because I dont know how they will fit and because he wore them and time Im stuck with them.

For the life of me, I don't know how one can buy a better shoe. I just received my GTS24s and, by golly they are absolutely superb. I started on the Chariot back in '81 (also a great running shoe by any measure) and, went with the Beast when it came out (since I do far more walking these days). The Beast has been through several iterations since it was first introduced, and while some are slightly better than others for my feet, this new GTS 24 is, for all things considered and my feet, the best shoe I've ever owned. I have to mention that my feet are flat (from birth), and I pronate pretty badly. These "Beast" shoes are the perfect antidote. I've always worn a 2E, and still wear this width. Sizing is spot on.

I used the pre-GTS Beast for 7 years and tried the Beast GTS. Had to return the shoe because they added a stiff rubber to the toe area and it gave me terrible blisters. Ended up moving to Asics

Overall the build and quality seems like Brookss typical greatness. I was supposed with this version of Beast how tight they are on the sides. Its considerably tighter on width than older versions of Beast. So much I had to check to ensure they both said the were Medium.

Great shoe and with the generous toe box really the only pair that fits my feet. This shoe has allowed me to run. One tiny complaint is that the tongue is a bit too short on this latest model. I am always having to tug it up

I have been wearing beast for over 20 years and love them. The pair I just got feels more like a size 12 and not 13. The tops of my toes are getting mashed. This has never happened before. I should go to a runner's shoe store and check to see if my foot has grown. I'm 58, hopefully my feet aren't getting bigger

Comfortable to wear and walk in all day; look is nice; not a good running shoe for me. Why: because the toe box is narrow at the toe and both outside edges of my largest toes rub the shoe. Shoe is not too short, just had a weird angle around the toe area, last years model didnt fit like that. Seems like the shoe has a weird angle around the toe area causing rubbing. Thats what I dont like about shoes that change too much in design/shape/comfort as the models progress. Engineers try to make it better and cheaper to make for same selling price, but you always get a weird flaw as a result that varies by person. Some will say they are great, perfect, and some will say there is an issue or they dont like them. Previous pair of beasts didnt last long, inner heel material tore apart from friction rubs, outside edges of heel wore out really fast and at a bad angle causing feet and ankles to roll outwards. Didnt get very many miles From last pair. Thought I would give these 1 more try in a newer model and see how it goes. I will say Im not impressed of the build quality, figment for the money. Not worth it. Obvious decline in insole quality also.

I have the Beast 23 in 4E width and they are perfect. Unfortunately the Beast 24 is not the same and too narrow in the toebox. Had to return and find another pair of 23s. Whatever was changed I hope they undo on the next version and go back to a wider fit.

I have worn various models of this shoe for many years. I have to wear an orthotic in one shoe and a foot-ankle brace in the other. I found this version to be a bit snugger than the previous one. It still has good cushioning and is and feels a bit lighter than prior ones.

I went with Wide (my first time), and the Heel still feels tight. Ill use them for the cushioning, but they come off at first chance.

Love these shoes, fits great.

It is not as wide? Comfort could be better

Honestly, awesome. I am a severe overpronator. I spend a lot of the day on a hard tile floor. Very comfortable. Perfect fit 8.5 wide ee.

Beast GTS Shoe relieved foot pain in heel from planters fasciitisExperienced Immediate comfort and support from the get go. I dont delay in putting them on first light and mostly leave them on until I go to bed at night. I will be ordering another pair. Not a Winter/ wet shoe very breathable. Love wearing indoors as lounging and for walking treadmillit will be replacing my Crocks Yukon as around the house shoe.
