Customer Reviews Brooks Divide

These are fairly light. They would be my second choice. All three styles were grey in color. The Divide style in grey is pretty neutral. Perhaps it is/appears less feminine as to style though that is subjective. I ordered the Launch 7 and the Ghost 12 styles at the same time. The ghost 12 style was the one I preferred, they are however $29 more. I did not look at prices when I tried on all three. The ghost 12 has more padding, the tongue is thicker, the laces are better quality and are overall more cushioned. I appreciate people that take the time to review items so this is my turn to due so. I did not note any of them to be too wide, not wide enough etc.. I may have ordered a wide though they were sold out.

The Brooks Divide is a great trail running shoe. It is super comfortable and provides great arch support and excellent cushioning. I ran the Zion Half marathon in these after only wearing them for a few days. No blisters and were super comfy! Highly recommend! Love the color combos available too!

These were true to size and very comfortable right out of the box. They also look great. I'm using these for walking, not running, so I can't speak to how they feel during a run.

Very light weight, hopefully the integrity of the shoe holds up on rougher terrain. Very stiff, wore around the house for a week before the shoe started to soften. I use orthotics so it made these shoes narrow unlike the adrenaline model which does have an impact. Bought on sale so worth keeping.

I am disappointed with these shoes. I have been dealing with chronic ankle instability and was hoping these would help me feel more secure on my trail runs. I took them on their first run yesterday (8mi) & they did not provide enough cushion / support for my ankles & knees. My feet feel insecure in these shoes. The treads themselves can handle intense terrain, but the shoes' upper is not sturdy and it slides around, which led to me almost twisting my ankle a couple of times, and more fatigue than I'm used to feeling in my feet, knees & ankles. In addition, my feet are on the narrower side, and tightening the laces enough to fit my feet felt like it was straining the lace loops, so I'd like to second the other reviewer who said these shoes do not accommodate narrow feet. Unfortunately, as I wore them outdoors & got some mud on them, I don't believe I qualify for Zappos' return policy.

So comfortable right out of the box. Completely satisfied with this purchase. I would advise ordering a full size up if you wear thick padded socks. Good quality and great price.
