These were very nice and very cushy. At the moment I'm recovering from two foot conditions, and I just received new orthodics that hopefully will help with healing, and unfortunately these weren't large enough to accomodate them.

After much trial and error trying to find new shoes for Disneyland I finally found what I was looking for! I have difficult feet to fit because I need a wider toe box but I have narrow heels so a lot of shoes don't work for both. I also need cushioning and want my shoes to accommodate a variety of socks when I am traveling and doing different things. These Ariels fit the bill on everything! I wore them at home and were hopeful they would work for Disney....30,000 steps the first day and my feet didn't hurt!!! I was actually able to walk after we got back to the condo, it was amazing. I am so happy I finally found a good tennis shoe that is supportive, fits, and has some cushion. So many orders and returns but I finally found the one! I got the cream color in a 7 1/2 regular width, the color is pretty neutral and I usually wear a 7 or 7 1/2 in Brooks and found these to be better a half size up.

This is my second pair of Brooks. I bought a half size longer and am glad I did. They run short. They are comfortable and I love the color.

I've worn Brooks Ariel for years but they don't work with the orthotics my podiatrist ordered.

I have been struggling with very high arches, plantar fasciitis, and heel spurs. A foot doctor said I needed to try this shoe, because the sole is very sturdy. He also suggested the wide shoe, which this one has an option for very wide. It is the best my feet have ever felt. VERY supported. my ONLY complaint, and reason I left off one star is really the color choices. I picked black, because it goes with many things, but I teach PE, and would LOVE to see more BOLD color options (not pale/pastel/ or pinks). But I will be purchasing more in the future, because this pair helps my feet feel better.

Love the support and balance and comfort of this shoe!! I want to order more, but can't find colors that I'm excited about. I saw the black and purple in another style- was hoping you had updated this style as well. The guardrails are a game changer. I'm a teacher on my feet all day and was considering quitting because of the pain in my feet- until I got this shoe (gray and purple was the best color offered but not what I was really looking for). I am in love w the shoes- just not the colors. Would be buying more right now except I really really want better color choices. Help!

Heel feels cuddled in shoe keeping it in place.

I suffer from over pronation and this is the only shoe that I can wear. They are a lifesaver since I am on my feet as a nurse.

Beautiful shoe, but just too short and the toe bed not wide enough for me.

I've worn Ariels for years. They provide the support needed for my over pronation. However, the last few iterations have been lacking. The last "best" was the 18. The move to more breathable mesh (a) makes the shoe show dirt quicker, (b) causes creases from wear, and (c) the fit has become inconsistent. And, finally, color is way off. What is supposed to be black is really a weird navy blue with purplish undertones. I hope not, but it may be time to start looking for other options.

I ordered the Ariel GTS 24 in black, but it's not a true black. In the sun, against black pants, it clearly looks navy blue.

They shoes offer great support and have a wide enough toe box to allow my toes to stretch out. So far I love them.

I have returned the Ariel Gts 24 two times because they squeak, and also my heel slips out.. I have been wearing Ariels for at least 10 years which have been supportive and comfortable and non squeaky, accommodating my wide feet. But the 24s are terrible, and also do not have the cushioning and comfort the past version had. The Ariel 20 was super comfy. Bring it backand yes, the black is not black.

So far, very comfortable for my very problematic feet. I don't quite trust it because , in the past, I've had a problem with inconsistent sizing Brooks shoes (same exact size fits differently with different pairs) and with short-lived comfort before I need a new pair, but , right now, they.re great. more cushioned than the 20,s and more support than the very uncomfortable 23s.

Ive worn the aerial for several years now. I just got the aerial gts 24, Im very disappointed, Im returning this pair. Very uncomfortable, ( not as comfortable as the 23)and the toe box is very stiff as well. I dont know what is different from the 23 other than the 24 is very uncomfortable to me. Highly disappointed and will have to find a different shoe

I have a wide toe box and athletic shoes ALWAYS hurt. I have always been confused how people worse sneakers for comfort. I found these, searching for an extra wide option to exercise in, and OMG I AM SO THANKFUL I DID. I can walk and work out without foot pain and I feel like an 8 year old kid. How can I EVER thank you for making these.

So nice to find a wide shoe that has arch support and a snug heel. I wear 9 wide for a perfect fit.
