Have tried my new Brooks Ravena 10 running shoes for about 2 weeks now. I have had earlier ravena running shoes and loved them. They were my all time favorite, comfortable and provided just the right amount of support for me. I did not like the 8 or 9, not supportive at all and wore out too quickly. I feel like the 10’s have returned to being a more supportive shoe, especially for those who moderately pronate. The treads are more substantial and I like that. I wear my running shoes for about 6 months and I think these will last. Thank you Brooks for listening, I think these will be my go to running shoes again??

I have never tried a Brooks shoe before. They are amazing! I had no idea what a good shoe they are. I tried the Ravenna 10 and the Ghost 11. For me the Ravenna wins because the toe box is ever so slightly more rounded, where the Ghost 11 cuts a more sharp curve which will rub my smaller toes. I bought a 8.5W and they are awesome. I have a wide front and skinny heel. Great fit. I loved the Ghost too because they are a bit more cushy, but worry about the toe rubbing, but I do have wide feet. Both shoes were uber cloud like to walk on. This may just be my new go to athletic shoe. I got the Grey and Magenta Ravenna. Very stylish but not too bright.

These shoes felt a little stiff and hard at first, but after wearing them around for the day I love them!! They run true to size and have a wide toe box that is super comfortable when running. I was able to easily remove the insoles of these shoes and insert my orthotics in.

These are my first pair of Ravenna's. I had been wearing the Launch 4 and then the Launch 5 in my rotation of running shoes. I ordered the Launch 6 and was heartbroken when they didn't live up to their predecessors. I took a chance on these and am pleased. I don't have any foot problems and do not wear orthotics but I am a nurse and a 20-28 mile per week runner so I do require good support and I believe these are going to suit me well.

I was referred to Brooks athletic sneakers by a friend. I am so glad I purchased these. I have terrible feet, especially the right foot. So I need shoes that are comfortable. I also have large flat feet & since getting older; wider feet. I love these. My feet do not hurt!

I wanted to like these shoes, but a serious quality control issue became apparent as soon as I laced on the right shoe. Its outer sole was built up farther than that of the left shoe forcing my right foot to pronate. The left shoe was fine, but the right was defective.

I have been wearing the Brooks Ravenna style for years. I normally insert a Vionic arch support. So far I don't have to with this new one. The arch support is definitely increased yet still very comfortable. Again Brooks created a great shoe!

They fit well. Even though I think I need a wide in running shoes these medium width shoes still fit well. I have a little slippage in the heel, but it doesnt affect comfort or wearability. Also, I would have little a little more cushion for running. I usually dislike any pink color on my running shoes, but this pink was dark more like a magenta and it was just some pink accents. So I found the shoes to be aesthetically pleasing.

Great heel and arch support. I have high arches and tend to roll out onto the edges of my feet. This shoe corrects that with firm support. Toe box is smaller than Anthem or Adrenaline both in height and width. I didn’t go up in size because the arch support might have been misaligned. The color is a bit different in person, much more orange than pink. They’re bright.

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever put on my feet. Due to foot and ankle issues, I pretty much only wear athletic shoes now. Usually I put in special insoles for all of my shoes, but I didn't have to do anything to these! The shoe is true to size. I usually wear a size 10 but in some athletic shoes I need to size up 1/2 a size, but not with these. I wish they had these in more colors because I would love to get another pair or two. I usually don't leave reviews but I had to for these Ravennas because they are awesome!!

Brooks or New Balance are my favorites!

These are my first Ravenna shoes. I usually wear the GTS. I have always worn a size 7.5 in the GTS, but downsized to a size 7 in the Ravenna. The fit is a bit more narrow than the GTS, but feels like they are part of my foot. Super comfortable. I love these shoes!! They are light weight and have great support. I wear them for indoor fitness classes which include occasional HIIT. These will be my new go to shoes for all activities.

They were great until I developed pain on the bottom of my right foot after an hour walk. They need more padding on the foot bed. I then put on my Ghost 12 shoes (very well padded) and the pain disappeared.

I love Ravenna 8 & 9. Why did they have to change? Where I noticed the change was in the heel. My foot was not tight. Returning.

I loved my Ravenna 9’s. These fit nothing like those. I gave them a chance but could never get the fit right. My heel slipped but it was so tight across the toe bed my feet got tingly half way through my runs. I do love the look of them, but not the changes made from the 9 to 10.

This shoe fits my foot nicely. I have a narrow heel, and I need good arch support due to an old foot injury, and I am able to wear this shoe comfortably. I mainly walk and work out on an elliptical, but I also wear this shoe for running errands, etc. I’ve have several generations of the Brooks Ravenna shoes and they have all been great for me.

This is my first time owning a pair of brooks shoes. I have been walking a lot more recently and needed a more supportive shoe. These are wonderful. They have good arch support. But mostly i can tell a difference in my legs when i am walking there is absolutely not shock in my legs when my foot hits the ground. It absorbs all of the shock. Wonderful

These are my favorite running shoes. I switched to Nike last year and regretted it. I just bought my second pair of these and they make a tremendous difference. My only other comment is running shoes are super specific to your stride and feet. I was fitted at a running store first.

OMG! Just got them out of the box and on my feet. SOOO lightweight compared to the Asics that I was wearing. I need a wide width, these fit perfectly and did not pinch the sides of my feet. The Asics used to be torture on my feet. I don't know why I didn't look for wide width running shoes sooner! I am not a runner, but I like to walk long distances. These were so comfortable and light right out of the box. I love them! I wear the size 11.5 Wide in Women's. The color is not too bad with the dark grey and magenta accents. It is hard to find a pretty shoe in my size. I am very happy with these shoes. They are so LIGHT! Perfect for daily wear running errands. To me, finding a wide running shoe is worth ANY price! I am very pleased and highly recommend them. I may just buy another pair to have a spare on hand.

I'm surprisingly shocked how much I like these shoes! The guide rails are HUGE plus. I always had a difficult time purchasing supportive shoes because they hurt my feet. The bar that was suppose to give support would always make my feet hurt within 30 minutes. I've worn these shoes out and about, around the house and a longer run (6 miles) and had very little pain. My feet are adjusting the support and I like the shoe energy return. My biggest complaint are the laces - THEY'RE TOO SHORT! I like using the 2nd eye hole for a nice heal lock down and can barely double knot my shoe lacing. It would be great to have an additional 3". But that's it! Great shoes!! Hoping more colors release soon!

I love the new holistic guide rails these shoes offer. Brooks is doing an amazing things with their shoes and I love their creativity! I personally found the heal area of the shoe to be a little hard and the toe box slightly too narrow in the toe box area. I can hardly wait to see if more colors will be released.

Such a relief to find shoes with enough support for my narrow flat feet without having to use a separate insole. I always size up 1/2 size for athletic shoes (7.5 to 8) and these 8’s are just right.
