DAVIDB

not very happy with shoes they are very hard and hurt my feet

Excellent, Comfort And Stability, Decent Room

Bought this pair earlier this month, as one of the brands and model recommended by my podiatrist to help with my Achilles tendon injury and potential plantar fasciitis issue. Decided to go one of this new colour as I needed 4E extra wide as recommended, and either this or all black. I don’t think I’ve ever really liked all black sneakers or runners so decided on this oyster with orange touch which looks much nicer. Length wise sizing seems to be true, and 4E width gave my toe and feet enough room, but wished there’s a bit more toe box room. The shoes are very comfortable, with the bouncy feel help keeping the momentum of each step and propel you forward. Reasonably quiet when it’s dry indoors, but do gets very squeaky loud if just stepped in from the rain into hard floor. So might need to take a bit time to dry the soles on door mats beforehand unless you want the whole building knows you’ve arrived. The flared heel top helps to slide the foot in, which I liked, and with its shaped away from the heel tendon it does help a lot with Achilles tendon issues. The soles under the front foot or toe as can feel slightly thin, as if I tried to do toe claw I can feel the padding is not much there, although I read reviews that the front foot soles have been added by a few mm compared to the previous model, so I would imagine the old one would feel even thinner. The 10mm specified drop I think would also helped with this Achilles tendon issues. Overall very good shoes, comfortable and stable, helps with my heel issues. The only thing I wished for Brooks to made other colour choices also available in 4E width than the usual black or grey only, Update: so good, decided to get a second colour in black for different occasion.

Pretty Good

Very soft for working out in and going for a walk. Too bulky for going for distance run

Great Purchase
