Very disappointed in the fit, and feel heavy. I think the shoe was mis-sized and too tight. Tried stretching with some improvement, but still struggling with them. Had to settle for trying this style because the Adrenaline GTS that I've been using for years was not available, and sorry I did. Been very happy with Brooks until this recent purchase, but not pleased with the Beast GTS.

I had Brooks Trace and best sneakers I ever had and bought these GTS Beast and they are uncomfortable, very tight and rigid. Cannot wear for more than 2-3 hours. Not happy with this version.

After a full day of wearing these, the middle of my foot was in pain. Brooks are usually my favorite shoe. This one did not work.

This shoe comes with great looks but the overall feel is like a brick on your feet without any noticeable cushion. I tried these for less than 3 hours and had to come home to change because they were too heavy on my feet and made me feel very unstable. They will be sent back to brooks unfortunately

These have changed. They are not as cushioned as they used to be and the sole is showing a lot of wear after only 40-50 miles of wear. Disappointment.

The wear on the sole is awful. I noticed a few comments in the reviews but surprised there aren't more. I have been wearing Beasts for years going back to the 14s. I purchased a pair of 23s and was disappointed in the wear, only logging somewhere over 100 walking miles before they wore out. Brooks replaced the 23s with a new pair of 24s. I decided to closely track the wear on my new pair and sure enough, 137 miles walked and the sole, especially the ball of the foot, is almost completely worn out. I had ten pair of 20s and was getting 300 to 400 miles with them. Hope they change the sole for the next version, but not sure what shoe I am going to buy to get me there.

If I wanted a pair of Hokas - and wanted to pay the Hoka price, I would have bought a pair of Hokas. As your tracking data may show, I bought 2 pairs of Beasts a year for 15 or so years.. That said, they are very comfortable. I'm a walker with orthotics, and your shoes have always provided great support and comfort, the new GTS24 even more so. Just not happy with the significant price increase.

I was overall unimpressed with the construction of this shoe. A very heavy build that was more reminiscent of a trainer than a running shoe. Not uncomfortable but not excelling in any one area. Heavy, cumbersome, and not really responsive. There are quite a few offerings from brooks and other brands at this price point for a greater value. Recommended for walking, maybe.

I think it's a very durable shoe. However, it feels like a high heel shoe. What they did was narrow the toe box, raise the heel and keep the entire shoe very narrow and it feels unstable without much lateral support. However, some recent New Balance and Hoka models seem to be on a narrow toe box trend too - why?
I'd also recommend:
Asics Novablast and Hoka

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

I buy Brooks running shoes for myself (85 years) and my son (55) . This particular pair was for my son who works on cement everyday. He has bunions and planter faciitis. These did not fee good at all on his feet. Need to return. At the same time I purchased a pair of Ghost 16 and they are great,

Would be a good shoe if it lasted more than 5 months. It didn't. It's not... Falling apart

A clear winner. I walk a lot at trade shows, and I have tried many of the other top brands that claim their shoes are good for walking, but the Brooks Glycerin 22 is clearly my go-to from now on. I have 4 pairs

Really struggled with the Beast GTS 24s. Intense pain in the back of my ankle & around the shoe's edge during the first few wears. It's the hardest shoe I've ever tried to break in. Currently on week 3, and it's still uncomfortable.

They really hurt my feet I can't take another minute wearing them. The past generations were comfortable and robust. These newer ones just are not the same. Very disappointing

Second time in 6 months ordered and had sudden onset arch pain and had to remove. Will need return label as still in excellent condition. Returned previous pair as well. Beast doesn't work for me but good luck with ghost adrenaline shoes.Never worn outside.

Previously a Beast 18 and 20 wearer. Support does not center my feet in the toe boxes (significant overpronation), allowing pinky toes to rub against sides of shoes, creating discomfort.

Dont call this GTS. The 24 is a completely different shoe and fit than the 23. The heel is lifted, the outer edge is lowered. Waste of money

As with a number of Brooks shoes, new versions are a disappointment - particularly for those with wide (4E ) feet. The Beast has gotten narrower . Returned them immediate after receipt

Returned them. Horrible color choices. Need a neutral gray. My husband has been wearing "The Beast" for over 15 years and did not even try them on. So disappointed. Purchased a pair from another company and he is very pleased with them. Sorry

Terrible shoe the Brooks 23 was much better. I had to send these back in order the 23s. Why did you guys switch up Brooks to the only shoes that I can wear in the 23s with top notch 24 is a terrible shoe.

Horrible. So much narrowed than my Beast 20s of the same size and width. Running with these has caused me a lot of pain.
