Customer Reviews Brooks Adrenaline GTS 21

I was surprised- i read a lot of great reviews about this shoe. But in actuality, it is very stiff, and VERY narrow. I had to check the label on the tongue to make sure that it actually WAS a wide... Will have to return.

I usually wear an 8. It was small. I thought going up a 1/2 size would be good based on the 8 I tried. The 8.5 felt like the 8 did. I've never worn a 9 but will have to go up a full size. I like the shoe so I am trying it a 3rd time.

I have been running in Brooks Adrenalines for years, and this is only the second version that has not worked for my feet. The arch support feels too far forward on my foot which causes a tingling sensation on the top of my foot when I run. Also, I have never had to "break-in" Adrenalines, and the first time I wore these, I got blisters on my ankles. I tried to loosen the heel, but they still rubbed wrong in subsequent runs.

Not like the GTS 20 - I wish Brooks wouldn't change the style so much each year. I love my GTS 20s but these are different. The front toe box area is larger and the whole shoe just feels enough off that I'm returning them.

The Adrenaline GTS21 is a cute running shoe so I gave the style 5-starts, but the toe box was too wide for my foot, and the support made my foot pronate more than normal. I usually wear Ghosts, but wanted to try this as I liked the leopard print.

This is my last pair of Brooks. I’ve worn these less than 200 miles and there are already holes in the back of the shoe, which then ruin all my socks. I’ve had this happen with several pairs of Brooks, and I’m over it. They’re too expensive for such poor quality.

Not like previous models- immediate foot pain that has not improved after wearing in shoes.

Super disappointed in these shoes. I've gone between adrenalines and asics kayanos for years and my last adrenalines were the 19s. They held up well but the tread wore and I was ready to replace. This version is a joke. The fabric shoe is so soft and flimsy, my foot is all over the place. I have very flat feet, and they are already hanging over at the arch since there is nothing to hold it in. The laces feel like an elastic hairband, they are so stretchy. I can't tie them tight enough to stop my foot from sloshing around. The heel feels deeper than earlier models and my ankle is rubbing against the side. I'm returning and am pretty bummed about it.

Well the top part of the shoe where you tie the shoe laces gave me a pain on the side of my foot.I have flat feet, very pronounced bunions and I overpronate. My Dr. suggested Hoka so I will try those. I wear an 8size shoe but in running shoes I wear a 9.5 because I like the room in the front and I need a wide toe box. I weigh 130 lbs.

They were not comfortable to walk in for work. The page also said to order a half size bigger which I did but that made them TOO big!
