The Beast is a shoe that always fits great and there is no "breaking in" period. I can wear them all day without effecting my plantar fasciitis.

The Brooks Beast GTS shoes provide a very soft and responsive feel, making them comfortable for long-distance running. They offer excellent stability for overpronation and boast impressive durability, even in hot conditions. The breathable upper material adds to their appeal, and the plush cushioning ensures a comfortable ride.

These are easily the best running shoes I've ever had. Extremely comfortable so that even my fat butt can walk and jog without wanting to cut off my feet. This is the first time that I've really felt a pair of nice shoes was with the sticker price. If you're on the fence, this is your sign. Buy them.

Great shoe. The fit is true to size, and although my feet are a tad on the wide side the Beast GTS 23 doesn't feel restrictive.
At first, I thought the soles would be a drawback. They're thicker than I'm used to and almost look like they'd give a bit of a forward tilt when standing still. But the sole thickness isn't really noticeable. And the balance is just right. Stable and solid.
Traction is A+. On top of that, the cushioning is great. Super soft without feeling spongy. The upper material is breathable. I don't have anything bad to say about these shoes, as you can tell.
For me, these are ideal everyday wear. Sturdy and comfortable whether I'm on my feet all day, up and down stairs a lot, or bouncing from meeting to meeting. Run happy, friends!

Absolutely loving these running sneakers. I am cross-training and found the supportiveness of these sneakers to help with other aspects of my exercise as well. The cushion is great and really absorbs pressure without being too soft. I love the aesthetic of this sneaker the black on black matches anything I choose to wear and I really love how simple the design is. I have been wearing this sneaker all day and have found them extremely comfortable. Overall, these are my new go-to running sneakers and i'm really excited to be getting a ton of use out of them.

The feeling of these shoes are fantastic for my feet. I've been able to wear them all day long, predominantly at a standing desk, and have enjoyed them on my walks / jogs. My favorite feature has been the drop of the insole towards the front of the shoe. As a toe-to-heel runner it feels like I have something to grip and push off of. I also think the heel strike is well cushioned. For them being called the beast, I wish they looked more agressive outside of that I wouldn't change anyting about these shoes. The all black option is a sleek look.

First impression out of the box was Wow! Brooks running shoes are known to be reliable and comfortable but I always thought they lacked in the style department. Well these Beasts are not lacking in any way. They look awesome and they provide the performance I would expect from a pair of Brooks.
The ride is a firm cushion which I think will last in the long run (no pun). I'm especially impressed with the lateral support provided by a higher sole below the ankle that seems to stabilize nicely. The mesh breathes quite well and contributes to the light weight. There are a few reflective tabs if you run at night. I'm looking forward to putting some miles on these Beasts, you will too.

These are amazing running shoes. They are incredibly comfortable, and they are light. They grip the road like no other running shoe I've owned. These shoes also have a spring in them, which make them even more comfortable while running. The only downside is that the design isn't something that I'd wear all day. It definitely works for running, but it's not something I want to wear around the office or out on the town. That said, these really are amazing shoes if you're a runner. If you're looking for comfort, give these shoes a try.

These shoes have been great for me. They are very comfortable, and provide a ton of support. I have worn shoes before where the tongue slips to one side, causing discomfort after wearing for a while. This does not happen here. The cushioning is soft, without feeling overly squishy. I have been using the shoes in high heat, and have not felt overly hot or uncomfortable while wearing.

They paid very close attention when designing the Beast GTS 23 shoe. These shoes fit like a glove as they wrap around the ankle with great support. I can't express enough how comfortable these shoes truly are, the cushion support make walking/running easier to enjoy! I have a hard time finding shoes that support my knees when running I can finally say I found a solution. Good quality grip for running trail or paved path. Currently this shoe is in my normal rotation for wearing them for both running and casual wear. With a sleek design I can get away with wearing these with khaki pants for work or a date night. All in all I have nothing bad to say about this shoe design as Brooks are now my ultimate choice when looking for a great quality shoe that meets my everyday needs.

The Brooks Beast GTS 23 is a stellar addition to my everyday running shoe lineup. It offers unmatched support, exceptional comfort, and reliable stability, making it an excellent choice for runners with overpronation issues or anyone seeking a secure and cushioned ride. While it may not be the lightest running shoe on the market, its performance and durability more than make up for it. If you prioritize comfort and stability in your running shoes, the Brooks Beast GTS 23 deserves a spot in your collection.
The black upper of the Beast GTS 23 is sleek and stylish, making it a versatile choice for both athletic activities and casual wear. You can get away with wearing this shoe for a long run, then flip right into a casual occassion. These shoes pair well with jeans or shorts, though I wouldn't wear them with khakis. The design is a subtle evolution from its predecessor, maintaining the iconic Brooks logo while incorporating some modern elements. The shoe's overall look is understated but attractive.
As an avid runner who values both comfort and performance, I was excited to put these shoes to the test. After several weeks of rigorous running sessions, I can confidently say that the Beast GTS 23 lives up to its reputation and then some.

I absolutely love these running shoes. The beast GTS 23 has changed my running for good. Not only are these super comfortable but they are amazing at shock absorbing when running especially at the heel. The perfect shoe for quick on and off and the tightness is a perfect fit around my foot. The insoles are very comfortable and I have no issues with the bottom soles wearing out quickly. I love the style and the colors as they blend well with pretty much any sport outfit and even if I decide to wear these for casual walking they work well as well. Excellent quality shoes that will last a while.

Wow what an improvement. The stiffness is gone. The upper fits like a glove. The flexibility and support are all in the right places. It makes walking easy. The guides do their job but do not overdue the support like the previous edition. Another great upgrade.

I have flat feet so the Beast is the perfect shoe for me, its comfortable and has the arch support I require. I just wish you had more color options like your other shoe versions.

You sent me the wrong shoe. Got a black Adrenaline. Returned it.
After waiting nearly 2 weeks.
So not impressed with Brooks.
