Customer Reviews Brooks Revel 7

This is my first purchase of Brooks shoes and I really like them. I'm not a runner but I find the Revel 7 to be a great everyday, casual wear. I like the "small form factor" of this shoe, no big soles that seem to be so popular these days. I normally wear a size 10, Brooks website recommended I get a 10.5, but the 10 was best for me. I would recommend these shoes to a friend.

Wow! What can I say, this is probably the most comfortable and lightest running shoe I have ever owned! Although Im not currently training on the race track, these shoes have provided me with great support and traction during my workouts.The look and color combination is perfect for casual wear. I wear these outside of home due to the high level of comfort. I seriously do not want to take them off. I am extremely impressed with the quality of materials. The extra foam padding around my ankles, is supportive yet comfortable. The size is spot on and definitely true to size. I absolutely love every feature, and would not change anything. I highly recommend them!

The styling and coloring are attractive, not over the top in design but unique in their own way. While I'm not currently training for any race, when I wear them they make me WANT to run. It's hard to explain but this shoe makes me want to move faster. I am loving wearing these for my new go-to every day shoe. The shoes fit a little bit narrow where I am normally a size 9, I may consider sizing to a 9W instead. The fabric is really breathable which is great for me as I struggle with keeping cool. It'll also be great for quick drying when running in rain or wet terrain. Overall, I'm impressed by this shoe and while it wasn't meant for me to train with, it's motivating me to run and move faster. I would recommend this shoe!

Amazing shoes. Wish there were more color options. I would love another pair or two.

The shoes are decent for jogging/running. They are definitely a little stiff out of the box but now they are breaking in they are better every time I wear them. I actually chose them for the look, which I like. Overall I would give them a 9/10 all around great shoe.

Good support and great comfort!

I ordered these shoes for my husband without measuring and they fit perfect. They are true to size. He immediately was impressed by the comfort of them. It is hard for him to find tennis shoes that he likes because his feet are narrow toward the heel and middle but wide around the toe. The toe box on these shoes allow your toes to stay at a natural, more comfortable position. The bottoms of the shoes have more grip than other shoes, at first it was different but now he really likes it. He wears them for the gym and casual wear. We would purchase these again.

I am a casual runner and my friends have been suggesting Brooks shoes to me for a long time. This is my first pair and the Revel 7 exceeded my expectations. My first impression when I opened the box was how nice and versatile the gray color was. It is a color that is perfect for running errands or a trip the gym. One of the greatest things about these shoes for me was there wasnt a break in period. Immediately after putting them on I was impressed with how light and spongy they felt. The shoes felt true to size and roomy but not in excess. When running on a gravel path they provide a smooth soft support for my feet and knees. There is a thicker cushioning around the ankle which provides extra support which I felt kept me in line on the treadmill. They were breathable and I experienced no crowding in the toe box. If I were to take points away from the shoe it would just be for lack of arch support for me. My feet are on the flatter side and need a little more than these insoles provided. Otherwise this a really great choice for casual runners like myself.

My son has tried many different brands of running shoes over the years and it's been a challenge to find a good balance between sizing, width, and comfort. He was skeptical about trying a brand he wasn't familiar with, but was pleasantly surprised by how much he loved the Revel 7! Upon first wear, he told me they were the most comfortable shoes for running and casual wear that he'd ever tried. Sure enough, his positive comments continued through daily wear for several weeks. The toe box is roomy while still providing stability, and the soles are padded and comfortable, even after miles of running and cross training on paved streets. They also had great grip on both paved road and grass/trail alike. He finds himself reaching for this pair over any other brand time and time again, both for training and casual wear. We will definitely be keeping Brooks shoes in mind in the future!

I am a fan of Brooks brand and this shoe is one of my favorites that Ive owned. The color is great and coordinates with anything I wear. There is a great amount of cushion on the sole and superb arch support on the inside. It feels like walking on a cloud and provides comfort for running. The fabric is great for runners with sweaty feet (like myself) because it doesnt hold the moisture in. They are breathable and havent got smelly yet! The design is casual but athletic. Could be worn by non-runners just seeking support. My favorite part of this shoe is that I can tell its going to withstand some tough runs and not wear out quickly. The only reason for 4 stars is that I would have liked to see a little more give in the sides for wider feet. Overall, definitely recommended!

These sneakers are so versatile- they are my new go-to's for not just every day wear, but also going to the gym and for running outside! The comfort of the Revel 7 is next level. The soles have a soft yet supportive structure that stay comfortable even after all day wear. Sizing wise the length and width of the shoes are completely true to size which I always appreciate! The fabric has a visually interesting design and the material is breathable yet sturdy, I anticipate it will hold up well over time. My favorite thing about these shoes is that they are great for so many uses- whether a quick run to the grocery store, running outside in the summer heat, heading to the gym, taking an exciting vacation to a theme park in Florida- these are the shoes I'm grabbing every time! The only thing that I would change is a small personal preference of normally gravitating towards laceless shoes (for extra convenience), but these shoes are so comfortable the regular laces haven't deterred me from using these as my default shoes.

My husband loves the Brooks Revel 7 shoes! We have young kids and a dog, and my husband doesnt often shop for shoes. He just wants no-fuss, comfortable shoes for everyday walking and light jogging when our dog or kids are particularly active. The Revel 7 shoe design is wonderful: the shoes look great and are lightweight and comfortable, which, of course, is what my husband likes best about them. Their fabric feels high quality and durable. There is plenty of room in the toe box, but the shoes are a bit on the narrow side. While overall the shoes are fantastic, a wide size option would be my husbands top wish. Our dog also approves since she often tries to sneak off with them. = )

The Brooks Revel 7s have become my sons go-to daily shoe. He wears them everywhere, including the gym. They were easy to break in and they are very comfortable. There is enough cushion to keep his feet from tiring and great ankle support. The shoe fits true to size, but the toe box is a little wide for him. The grey color is nice and neutral, but they are not easy to keep clean. The shoes are also very breathable, which is a plus for stinky teenage feet. He was planning originally to wear them just for the gym and running the indoor track, but they have become a daily shoe. Overall a great pick and the box graphics are an great extra touch.

They fit great, however, the lace straps broke the second time putting them on. Wish they were more durable and had the lace straps be apart of the shoe and not just a piece of string that holds it all together.

The Revel 7 shoes are super versatile. On one occasion we went from church to trail and the shoes were comfortable and appropriate in both places. The material and color gives them a nicer feel and look than typical gym shoe material. They look like basic running shoes but look good with casual clothes and are comfortable for day to day errands. They seem durable and will hold up longer than other brands we bought in the past. The grey bottoms are a great choice because they dont get as dirty while training outside. One thing that has taken time to get used to is the platform cushion in the toe box. When running it can feel like my foot is going into the middle of the shoe and the surrounding shoe feels higher up. This might be something to get used to. After a hike and a run, my feet felt good and I didnt have blisters. Excited to see how these help my training in the future!

I've just started training for a couch to 5k and saw these so wanted to try something new since I've been a fan of Brooks shoes for a while so I was excited to try the new Revel 7 shoes. The style looks a bit updated from my older running shoes, which was a plus. I have been testing them out for a few weeks and enjoying them. I plan to add them into my normal rotation for my 3x week 3ish mile runs. I found the material to be super breathable which is great since it's heating up where I am and I don't like it when my feet are overheating. There's also a good amount of ankle flexibility/freedom which I appreciate. The soles feel supportive and although I don't do a ton of mileage, I'm gravitating towards these since they feel supportive but also well cushioned. The fit overall is true to size. My foot is a little on the wide side so I could have opted for the wide fit, but that's the only thing I would change on the fit.

I run on various terrain including a steep incline and on a treadmill. The revel 7s have become my go to for running, especially the steep hill near my house. They are also my first pick for running errands and casual outings. They go well with casual outfits and are supportive and breathable for hot summer days. They provide support and cushion when running downhill which I need due to a history of shin splints and stress fractures.

This is my second Brooks shoe and this one is a review for the Revel 7. I'm first surprised about the Brooks brand in general as they feel like a sleeper company but now I can tell they are a forced to be reckoned with as they offer a unique product in the industry. High quality materials that are breathable and lightweight. It's just such as joy to walk and run it all day. It initially feels like running on clouds and hangs with you with the ankle support well. This is my rotation along with the other Brooks shoes. There's nothing I would change here as the value is worth what you get.

These are some really great running shoes that are extremely comfortable. At first, I thought they were a little loose, but I just realized my other shoes just fit more snug, too snug. Previous shoes would sometimes cut off circulation but these ones fit great. When running, I don't notice any negative aspects to the shoes. They truly complement my running and help to cushion each step. I find myself walking in my house with them on because of how comfortable they are. The fabric used doesn't hold sweat and they stay dry without keeping your feet too hot. To be honest, I can't think of anything I would change about the shoe.

Ill start by saying the style of this shoe is great. The gray tones can pass for an every day sneaker but if feeling like an afternoon run, I can just take off. The support is comfortable in my arch and the sizing is great, however I have a wide foot and these were a bit snug. Im hoping the more I wear them they might stretch and form to my foot because the support is there and I love how lightweight they are. The fabric is breathable and nice in the summer humidity we have. This is my first pair of Brooks and Im hoping these last longer than other shoes I wear out in no time.

From the moment I put them on, they felt incredibly light and comfortable, with no break-in time needed. The design is impressive, especially around the tongue area, which gently holds my foot in place, providing excellent support. The fabric is not only of high quality but also comes in a beautiful color that doesn't easily show dirt, which is a big plus for me. I wouldn't change a single thing about these shoes they are perfect just the way they are! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a blend of style, comfort, and practicality.

Love the classic look. The Revel 7 is very stable and supportive. The heel is comfortable and there is nice springiness. I love the shoe for running, jogging and stair master work outs. Also great for keeping up with and chasing kids. The fit is great, the normal size I wear. No need to size up or down. I expect to get many months of use out of this shoe.

These shoes are a pretty standard, reliable jogging/running shoe. The style is classic in color and shape. They fit pretty true to size but feel a bit snug/narrow around the toes. Overall a good solid shoe.

I first wore these on a quick out and back trail run and they have quickly become my go to. These were perfect even when the rocks and parts of the trail were wet. I felt so sure footed and the grip on the bottom was a lifesaver. These have become my go to because of the support and fit - and there was no rubbing around the ankle. I will definitely be living in these as the weather heats up.

Very comfortable. Great for everyday walk.
