Customer Reviews Brooks Beast GTS 24

I really like these shoes. They are one of my new go tos. I love the fit and feel of Brooks shoes. These ones are no different. They are comfortable and great to walk and jog in. The color is nice. They are breathable. What I like the most about these shoes are how I can wear them all day and my feet dont get tired. I wouldnt change anything about these shoes. I really like them.

First off, let me preface with this: I have plantar fasciitis in both feet, more severe on the right foot with a very collapsed arch. I never write reviews but I feel that I should try to help others with this condition. Im giving it 5 stars because way better than the previous Beast 23 as far as support in the heel area. Beasts are the only sneaker that I can wear with this condition, believe me, Ive tried them all. My 2 concerns are that they are extremely limited on the colors schemes. The 23 only brought a total of 4 color combos. I have texted their line many times letting them know that the sneakers are not only worn by people who are advanced in age and more color schemes are needed. Their Adrenaline line offers an infinite amount of color combinations for example. I just simply ask that the Beast 24 comes out with a version that is black on the top and white on the bottom like they had a version in their Beast 20 series. A patriotic version in red, white and blue would be great as well. My second concern is that the outsoles are the same as the Beast 23 that literally wear away after a month of use. Due to my condition, I have to buy 12 pairs a year because of this. it would be great for them to last longer like in the Beast 20 series that I mentioned before. The materials in that model were way stronger and lasted of very long time. I give it 5 stars nonetheless because I can tell that theyre trying to make it better. I hope my concerns are addressed in the near future. Thanks

After trying to Brooks Beast GTS 24 over the last couple of weeks, I have grown to be a big fan of this shoe. According to Brooks, these shoes are more geared towards support. Ive mainly been running in Brooks neutral shoes over the past ten years, and I had never spent much time in a shoe geared towards support until now. Overall, Im really glad I gave them a try as I grew to enjoy the extra support provided by their GuideRails technology and firmer cushioning. They were a bit awkward at first, only because it took some time getting used to the shoes max support system. I feel like they truly helped my gait stay natural and aligned as I got more fatigued. This helped me tremendously as I tend to pronate a lot when my muscles get tired. This helped keep my gait aligned and prevented unwanted muscle soreness. I felt more refreshed after my runs and less sore in my hip joints the next day. As far as the design and fabric are concerned, Im still a huge fan of how breathable and comfortable Brooks shoes are which definitely includes the Beast GTS 24. The fabric is silky smooth on the inside and very breathable which kept my feet cool and dry in the hot Florida summer. I also really felt that the fit is true to size and the shoes have a great balance between snugness and room to move. They honestly got the fit just right and I never felt like blisters would be a problem at any distance or length of time wearing this shoe. My feet are of average width for reference. Overall, Im a huge fan of the max support system and the GuideRails technology. I really feel like they helped keep my gait on point when I got fatigued. The cushioning is also just right in my opinion. They have a soft yet firm ride creating a lot of upward pop in my stride. A firmer cushion has always been my preference and these shoes definitely hit the sweet spot. In conclusion, I really liked the fit, feel, design, support, cushion, and overall look of the shoes. I would highly recommend them

These were for my husband. He usually wears a 12.5 but is between a 12 and 12.5 it seems. so that is what I got him. He said they felt a little big but he continues to wear them and find them comfortable. He says he hasn't had any complaints when wearing them to work as a Physical Therapist but wishes the appearance was more stylish for work.

I have run in Adrenaline GTS for years. I like the roomy toe box and width 4E. Now I'm looking for more cushion and though the Beast would be the answer. It is not. It runs small. Cramped my feet. Sent them back.

Super comfortable and stable. Perfect shoe for me.

I love to get outdoors and go for daily walks and runs with my dog. I work from home and any chance I get to leave the house I take advantage of. I have really enjoyed wearing these, they have become my go to shoe. My feet dont feel fatigued and I dont have the heel pain I had with my older shoes. The shoes fit true to size and feel amazing on my feet. Although they are a bit heavier than I would like, they still provide great overall comfort. I appreciate their slim design, which isnt too bulky, making them look great with both shorts and pants. The color is versatile and complements any outfit. The materials are high quality, with well built mesh and stitching. While I love the color, fit, and design, the one thing I would change is making them a little bit lighter. Other than that, they are a great comfortable shoe I would definitely recommend.

best of all the Beast's!!!

As a beginner runner theres so many options of running footwear to choose from but Im glad I went with the Beast GTS 24. I use to suffer from shin splints and the occasional ankle pain when I would run indoors on the treadmill and it would normally occur after a mile run but since I started wearing the Beast GTS 24 I have no issues with shin splints and can run 2 miles now without any discomfort. Ive heard that normally after running your feet swell up and may make your shoes tighter but I have yet to feel that with this pair of shoes. The Beast GTS 24 also came in a simple navy blue color way which made it very easy to pair with gym outfits when I would go and on top of that unlike most other running shoes that have a big cushioning in the back this pair was relatively mild and did not require me to switch out shoes in the gym to continue with non running workouts. I also tend to wear them to run errands or when I know Ill be up and walking for quite a while, which makes it way easier with the comfort these shoes provide. Overall my running experience has improved thanks to this pair of Brooks Beast GTS 24 and I look forward to trying out more of their products as I continue in my running journey.

The shoes are comfy. Heel padding is thick and cozy - supportive enough for long runs or long hours on your feet. Shoes feel narrow for someone with somewhat wide feet but seem to stretch over time. Wouldnt recommend if you have very wide feet. If your feet are of normal or narrow width, these fit great and your feet wont slide around at all Fabric doesnt rub or cause blisters. Color is neutral and looks nice for runs or with jeans.

Not what I expected or wanted. Soles are too thick and stiff. Returned both pairs.

Although I have purchased the Beast for a number of years, I'm disappointed at the color selection for the GTS 24. It does give you the support you're looking for, but the variety of selection is very limited.

These Brooks Beast GTS 24 shoes are built differently. The new era of shoes seems to emphasis lightness and comfort, but typically lack one important factor - stability. The GuideRails support system ensures a secure fit for a stable run (or walk), and by no means compromises on comfort. The soft, durable, and cushioned soles promote comfort with each step along the way. The breathable mesh uppers also make for a pleasurable all around experience. These shoes could really benefit someone who needs stability later in a run when the legs and ankles are begging for it. Ive only used these for road running, and Ive felt the consistent, quality shoe that is expected from a Brooks shoe. The shoe size fits as expected and I would easily promote these to anyone who is in need of a great all around running shoe!

These shoes are stylish and light, a perfect pair to put in my running shoe rotation along with some heavier, more cushioned shoes that I use more often on blacktop. These are the lightest feeling shoes that I can remember wearing, decreasing fatigue and making me feel faster. However, I am most impressed with the style. I normally wear crazy colors while running but then dont wear those running shoes for other purposes. These shoes have a great blue color but not too wild that I cant wear these to dinner with the family. The shoes have sufficient cushion, although less than other shoes in my rotation given the trade-off with the weight. Overall, a fantastic running shoe so you can look and feel great while exercising.

Love the feel of these shoes- great arch support, breathable and comfortable for casual use and short distance running (havent tried long distance). Id suggest a wide if you have wider feet. I like the design- simple and sleek. Fabric is light weight and breathable. Nice deep navy color. Seem easy to wash if needed but havent tried. These are my new go to shoes for a short run or errands.

The Beast GTS 24 shoes are incredibly comfortable and lightweight. They fit true to size and feel spacious, giving my feet room to move without slipping around. The design is sleek and stylish, though the large logo can be a bit distracting, and the fabric is breathable, soft, and non-restrictive. My favorite feature is the overall comfort of these shoes; from the breathable knit upper to the rubber, high-traction outsole, these shoes are the most comfortable athletic footwear Ive ever owned. My one wish is that there was a pull tab at the heel to make them easier to put on, but the heel reinforcement is a nice touch. Overall, they are extremely comfortable, breathable, and supportive, making them my go-to choice for athletic shoes.

Best sneaker I've ever bought. I'm a nurses aid and my feet never hurt at the end of my shift. I got an 8.5 and they're perfect. I normally wear an 8.

The last few pairs of the Beast GTS in black have had either a design or manufacturing problem. The tongue of the shoes will not stay straight. They move down to the inside position of each shoe, and the outside edge to the tongue moves up. I have previously reported this to a customer representative, but do not know if this was forwarded to someone who could diagnose and resolve the issue. What makes this situation a bit funny is that the problem appears to be only with the black shoe. I have also had a Peacock Blue Beast GTS for a couple of years, and its tongue still lines up straight down the middle.

Not very cushioned compared to past ones!

the tread is really soft on this shoe as i accumulate alot of rubber on my floor behind the treadmill.. i walk 3.5 mies a day on the treadmill... at 6 months into the shoe at walking 3.5 miles a day (5x a week) the shoe look as thought i had them for a year... i have had multiple models of the Beast but these by far have been the worst for wear

I love Brooks shoes. These were a bit snug in the toe box though. I sent them back and still where my Ghost Max 2. I supinate and have been diagnosed with Tarsal Tunnel in both feet. When I get that fixed I will try them again. Thanks Brooks!

I have worn the Beast model for 20+ years. This pair disappointing as the tongue of the shoe is off center....aggravating for a shoe this expensive to have any flaw. Thank you for allowing me to express an opinion. Know that Jesus loves you.....more important than a shoe!!

Bought these brand new from Brooks website. Last year I bought the Beast from the Brooks ReStart site. The ones I just bought new don't fit as good as last years that I bought on ReStart. Don't know what you did with any changes but I'm not as happy with my newest purchase. The ones from last year, ReStart, hug my feet better and are much more comfortable than the brand new ones from this year.
