Customer Reviews Brooks Hyperion GTS 2

I usually wear the Adrenaline. Bought these because I was running my first half marathon in ten years. These feel so much lighter and have great support. Will definitely buy again!

Got these for walking. They have good support and are a lightweight shoe. They will be perfect for summer.

Light weight, supportive, great cushion. Love these shoes so much I have them in both colors!

Finally found a shoe to replace the Asics DS trainer I had been wearing for years. I have a hard time finding the right mild support, flexibility and light feeling. The Hyperion GTS does all three. Please don't change or discontinue this shoe!

These shoes have been excellent for me! I have about 140 miles on them and I am so pleased that the hip and knee pain I've experienced in other shoes is gone. They have just the right amount of cushion, drop, support, and width for my feet. The stretch of the upper helps make these shoes work for my wide-ish feet. I just wish there were more colors available in the GTS version.

After many trials and almost just as many returns, I am happy to say.... I have found THE ONE(s)! My favorite running shoe for many years was the Nike Epic React Flyknit 2, but they discontinued. Them. Those were a gamechanger for me in the way the hugged my feet. After trying these yesterday, I am 1000% in love. They are so perfectly cushioned. Makes me want to run for days. And while it's not like the Flyknit in terms of that hugging sensation, it's close. And the cushion is definitely worth the small, small sacrifice. Waiting for the Glycerin 22 SE or something similar to have better color options. 5 years ago, I would have never purchased a pair of Brooks. They always felt so clunky and the styles were hideous. They are definitely doing better with fit and style, colors are still lacking. The Hyperon GTS is amazing. Don't touch that design (I'm getting the max in the same color), but color, styles and fit still have some room for improvement. Still... way better now than a few years ago. Love these shoes!

Light and comfy from the moment I tried them on. Have been running in ghost for years and wanted something to change it up. Not running the same distance these days because of a back injury and these fit my needs for 2-3 mile short runs. I usually run outdoors but using for treadmill training. Super cute too.

Love these shoes! It's my first pair of Brooks and definitely won't be my last.

I have had two bouts of plantar fasciitis in the last 7 years. Each time requiring physical therapy. Initially, the Bedlam shoe was what got me over the hump. I've used several purchases of the levitate gts stealth fit after the bedlam was discontinued. Now that the Levitate is discontinued, I switched to the Hyperion GTS 2. They are lightweight, springy and supportive with an adequate width to the toe box while hugging my high arches with just the right amount of cushion. I need more of a rigid shoe very a super cushiony shoe. I hope these stick around for a while!

These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn! I've had a few pairs of the Ghost, but I went out on a limb and ordered these because I liked the way they looked, and boy, was I pleasantly surprised! They are super lightweight and the strings even stay tied without double tying. I've been a nurse for over 25 years now, and I wish I'd had these shoes all along.

Help me run faster and feel more stable while doing it. They're so light and flexible. It's like wearing socks!

I used to wear the Levitate. Before that I wore the Adrenaline for years. The levitate was discontinued. After wearing the Levitate I could not go back to the Adrenaline, they just didn't feel right, so I tried the Hyperion and they are great. They aren't overly padded, I prefer a more minimal shoe. They have a bit of spring. They are very comfy and stylish. I wear a half size up from my normal shoe size but not because they run small, I believe it's just general advice to fit proper.

These are magic. I have to admit, Brooks has been breaking my heart recently, either discontinuing or completely changing the fit with each update of the various styles I have run in for many years. I love Brooks (and their customer service is top notch) but was about ready to give up and explore other brands. I decided, however, as a last ditch effort (thanks to their liberal return policy) to try these. I put them on and went for a run and was blown away. They are so lightweight, cushioned, responsive, springy, and just perfect. I also love the sleek all grayish-black color. They are actually flattering on my feet (not that I care when I'm running). For reference, I run over 40 miles a week, have a low arch, narrow heel, bunions, and a chronic high hamstring issue which is greatly helped by the 8 mm drop, as opposed to the 10 or 12. Brooks, PLEASE never change them. Ever.

I typically skip reviewing products unless I feel strongly about their performance- this is such an occasion. I had been training in Saucony Triumph shoes (long comfort runs) and Brooks Launch 10s for speedwork and was pretty happy with my progress. However when I considered my Half Marathon approaching (this was about 6 weeks prior to the event) I wanted to up my game and invest in something more than an entry-level training. I did my research on my individual gait and training needs, as well as considered what my experience had taught me about my shoes. I bit the bullet and invested in the newer Hyperion 2 GTS shoes, and oh boy, they didn't disappoint! I could feel the more premium vibes of the shoe- sturdy yet springy, cushioned yet responsive, and overall just felt like an extension of my body. I am sure there is part quality/performance and part perception at play, but I can't imagine running in any other shoes at this point. I still use other models for appropriate targeted training, but I will be running my half marathon in 2 days in these shoes and feel a complete confidence these will complement my hard work and fitness to make for a great experience. I already PR'd at the Turkey Trot in these, so all things point to further loving these shoes. All that said, do your research, decide what features you personally need/benefit from, and make the right choice for you. But if you're me, these are literally the best shoes ever!

The BEST Brooks I've owned!! I'll be ordered another pair & looking for additional colors. Lightweight, responsive and crushed great! Make for awesome running, walking, or everyday shoes!

I've been running in Hyperion Tempo and Hyperion for about 4 years. I love the old Hyperion Tempo but not crazy about the Hyperions that I have been using lately. I bought the Hyperion GTS 2 in hopes that I'd have a little more cushion than with the Tempo but still provide some stabilization. I love these shoes! They will definitely be my new go-to!

Bought this shoe for faster/shorter runs. Each run on them has been a 10k or less. I love this shoe. Whenever I am not wearing them for a run I am sad. They have the perfect amount of bounce and cushion, are light, have enough room for my toes, and no heel slipping. Love the shoelaces, the texture keeps them from becoming untied. They make each run so enjoyable. I've put about 50 miles on them so far and I'm looking forward to adding more. I have not tried these on my long runs (7+ miles) but I am tempted, usually I wear glycerin gts or adrenaline gts for those.

These shoes are a step up from the Ghost 15 and 16's I had been running in. They feel like a Cadillac on my feet! They have just a lil' something extra for bounce and stability. Please offer in more color ways, because these are *the* shoe for me!

I am in love, I mean in love with these sneakers. I have been searching for a new sneaker for my power walks, jogs and run/sprints. I had been wearing Ghost for many years but they just weren't doing it for me. I was a bit nervous about these since everyone talked about how light they are. I tend to roll so I was looking for something more supportive. I saw all the reviews online and I just decided to bite the bullet and try them. So glad I did. They are supportive, I feel like I can run faster and not as clonky and heavy as the ghost. Also the style is really nice. It looks like they gave a lot of thought into making this sneaker stylish and I appreciate that. Also, maybe make this into a trail sneaker too? My only complaints are: - the color options for the GTS are trash. I for got the white and orange ones and I like them but black is the only other option. Like why? Please expand the color options so I can buy another pair - I love the laces but one of the sneakers came with the laces already in a knot and this knot is impossible to get out. I can still run with the know but I just hate it. I called to see if I could purchase another pair of the same laces and I guess I can't due to this model shoe? That's annoying and should be fixed.

I wanted to like these but after wearing Ariel, they felt like there was no liner . The toe box was perfect, and the rest of the fit was great. Just felt like my foot was on the floor. Customer service was great!

I really like these shoes.

LOVE the look of these and how lightweight they are! My 15 yr old son liked them so much we ordered him a pair too. Our only criticism is that the toe box is a bit narrow so if you have wide feet or ingrown toenails these might not be a great fit. Overall the upper is very breathable and also like the variegated shoelaces that stay tied well. Great shoe if looking for some not bulky.

I was a faithful Ravenna lover and never had an issue or blister. I moved to the launch GTS without any issues. I love the lightweight feel and colors of this shoe. It is comfortable however there is extra material or buldge on the inside heal area giving me blisters.

I was at first surprised with this shoes lack of cushion inside bottom and on tongue. It seemed 'cheap" compared to my other Brooks shoes (glycerin). However, after wearing them and walking dog and self (not a runner), I see the lightness and fit make up for what I thought might be its downfall. Just saw that it is one sale. Hate when that happens.
