I returned this. They were pretty and the bottoms were very springy and supportive, but the top was SO tight. Literally, my foot fell asleep after a few minutes of wearing them. Do not buy unless you have very narrow feet.

I just bought my third pair of Richochets. I am 72 years old and have been wearing Brooks for 1.5 years. The fit is great for me in the heel and toe, not to wide. I work full time 12 hour shifts as a respiratory therapist. I love my Brooks

BEST RUNNING SHOE EVERRRRRRR! It holds my foot in the right places. Its not a heavy shoe so I don't feel like my feet are dragging as I'm running. Lots of space for my toes in the toe box. Just an overall good shoe! Can't wait to order more!

I am currently using these as work shoes. I'm on my feet all day and my heels take a lot of pressure. The shoes give great cushion and spring back to decrease the pressure. I don't come home with hurting feet anymore!

I just purchased my third pair of Ricochet running shoes. I am 72 years old and work fulltime 12 hour shifts as a respiratory therapist. These shoes fit me very well in the heels and toe, they are not too wide. I love them.

I ordered these about 1 month ago and have used them before writing this review. I LOVE them! Wish I had them a long time ago. I dont have back or leg problems but sometimes my feet hurt after a run. When I run in my Brooks Ricochet2 I feel like I'm running on a cushion yet there is a grip in the feel. Hard to explain, but basically they are GREAT. Also-excellent experience in dealing with customer service. I am usually size 8.5/9 so I ordered 9, but they were way too small. Got in touch with customer service to return them and it was a breeze, no hassle. Very smooth process and friendly service. Reordered size 10 and they feel wonderful. I'm very happy with this purchase. I highly recommend them.

These shoes are essentially slip ons. I had foot surgery and my foot doesn't bend. I couldn't force my foot into these shoes. They are light-weight and attractive, however. Wish I could have worn them.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks are good...they just need a tongue, for me.

These shoes took a couple of runs to get accustomed too, but afterwards they were absolutely awesome! Long-lasting support for my 6-8 mile runs, great fit for my slightly narrow feet, great look (I ordered black), & easy to keep clean. I'm ordering a 2nd pair now!

I'm used to ascics kayano so these feel very different. They feel like they are springing me to each step as I run and I love it! Just enough support for my arches. The only thing I don't like about them is the hard and high heel. I have to wear bandaids or tape over my heels when using these.

They are exactly what I have been needing! I was needing some more bounce but a light shoe and this was perfect! I took the shoe finder quiz with Brooks and it did a great job fitting my needs to the right shoe.

Love this shoe -- light, supportive and they don't slip on my heel! I was nervous to buy a style of running shoe I've never tried on in the store, but I have no regrets! My past few pairs have been the PureFlow, and last time I went with a men's because the store associate suggested I do because of my wider foot. These feel accommodating for a wider foot. I have only been out for about a 3 miler in them at this point.

Helps my back and are very comfortable to walk in. I have to stand on my feet for hours/lots of walking and these are a real delight.

I'm keeping these shoes, because of all the pairs I've tried this go-around, these are the most comfortable. This said, I'm not terribly fond of the sock-style, no-tongue style as it makes the shoe harder to get on. Also, this shoe feels narrow, even though I ordered my normal medium width.

I really wanted to keep this shoe, but I knew I'd regret it. The back is very high and stiff, and they are not easy to get on with or without socks. Back they go. I will get another pair of Brooks they continue to be the best running shoes for my high arches.

Other reviews said to size up a 1/2 size if you have thicker/wider feet. I did that and they are about a half size too long now. However, the sock-like style is very comfortable and gives my foot the extra compression that I need. Because they sit up a little higher on your foot, you definitely need taller socks or the back will rub your ankle raw. Overall, it’s a very comfortable shoe and I’d buy again!

I love these shoes. They were comfortable from the first time I put my feet into them. Walking in them mostly on pavement has been really enjoyable. They hug my feet in a good way, not confining.

I've been looking for a new pair of running shoes and have gone through a couple of different style Brooks since the Ravenna style has changed! These are the clear winners if you are looking to have a cushiony, yet stable enough support for runs! At first, I was worried about the "sock like" style, but it's actually really comfortable! They allow me to run happy for sure!
