Most comfortable shoe for my foot. I practically live in these and even have a pair that are only ever worn inside my house.
Super comfortable shoe, normally an asics man but thought I’d try them. Very happy with the quality of this shoe 👟.
Sadly I'll have to return them. Moved to Adrenaline from Ghost because I do more training and no longer running. They look way better in person than online but when I put them on, I honestly thought they sent the wrong size. NOPE. Ok, perhaps my shoes were so old I forgot how new ones feel. Have worked out in them 6 times and my right toe is at the edge. Thought I was losing my mind. Went to a store and tried on a new pair of the Ghosts in the same size, 9.5. They felt great. WAIT A MINUTE. I put them (both 9.5) side by side and the Adrenaline (lilac shoe) is SIGNIFICANTLY shorter than the Ghost (hot pink shoe). Bummer! But at least now I know.
I am used to wearing Ghost and thought I would try Adrenaline knowing full well they have more support. The toe box is shallower, initially causing some pressure on my big toe. The tongue over the dorsum of the foot was also very tight. I ended up having to change the lacing pattern 3 times before the shoes were wearable for longer than 10 minutes. The soles felt very hard with no shock absorption whatsoever. I tried them for 3 weeks but they made my feet tired, I was not happy. This season it has been difficult finding a color option that suited my needs. Been spoiled by the lovely Ghost blue ‘camo’ design with black soles. Has to return the shoes for refund.
I've had. 2 pairs of the Adrenaline 23's so this is my first pair of 24's. I have arthritis in my big toes so finding comfortable shoes is a challenge. It took at least 2 weeks for my feet to adapt to the fit of the shoes. A painful several days but ok now. My biggest issue with all 3 pairs is the squeak. It's very annoying. I have tried various fixes but nothing has really worked until I inserted regular Dr. Scholl's inserts along with the podiatrist recommended inserts to keep my toes from flexing. So far this is working. The other day while at the grocery store, a man walked in behind me with squeaky shoes. Brooks. It's an issue!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Adrenaline GTS 24 has become my new go-to sneaker for running and everyday use! This is the first time I've worn a sneaker from Brooks and I'm so glad I gave these a try! I have flat feet and normally grab insoles to put in my sneakers, but not with these! These offer the best arch support that I’ve ever experienced! The fit of this sneaker is spot-on perfect and the comfort is impeccable and makes me feel like I’m walking in clouds! Adrenaline gts24 is crafted beautifully, and the fabric holds so incredibly well! I adore the design of the shoe, and it’s easy to pair with most neutrals. There’s nothing I would change about these sneakers. I would buy them again and again!!
Love the new adrenaline GTS. Comfort and style in one, and love the black colourway, as it goes with everything. Got these for my regular walking, but have ended up wearing them regularly for my marathon long distance prep runs and super comfortable and surprisingly light. These run small though, I had to size up half a size from my normal in brooks and other brands.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've just recently gotten back into jogging after several years and wanted to invest in a high-quality running shoe. I am mainly running on a treadmill and have found these new Brooks Adrenaline GTSs to be very supportive and comfortable. They are very springy and the fabric is breathable. I love the simple/classic style of the shoe. Initially thought the heel cushion was too firm/tight but now I really like it and it adds stability to my heel. I've had Achilles tendonitis in the past and that hasn't been a problem with these new shoes. Looking forward to logging lots of miles with these.
A few weeks back, I bought the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 24 (wide). I realized that my ankles are a bit weak, so I require stability and support. These shoes were suggested to me for their comfort and support, so I decided to try them out (I'm new to Brooks). I'm really happy with my choice; they are just what I needed—comfortable and supportive.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really enjoying these shoes! Though it fits slightly snug, it still has a great fit to it and has felt comfortable despite all day wear, including time on the treadmill. The cushioning of them make my feet feel like normal after taking them off, instead of feeling achy or tired. I am a minimalist, so I really appreciate the simple design and colors - it makes it versatile and easy to wear casually like with jeans and when working out in athletic outfits. The only thing I would change is the standard laces - I did buy my own laces (a little longer and a tighter elasticity) as the standard ones that come on them felt lower quality compared to the shoes themselves. Overall, I would purchase again!
