Light, Fast, Comfortable, Stable

So far, I've used the Hyperion 3 for 50 miles and a half marathon. I'm extremely impressed. The shoes are fast, springy, comfortable, and stable. I find my self simply bouncing along and enjoying the smooth return of energy right back up my legs. I ran on the Hyperion 2 and am impressed by how much of an upgrade the Hyperion 3 is over its predecessor. My main issues with the 2 were in comfort and stability. The shoe had a wide and square heel box that my foot would slide around in. Over long distances, this motion would start to get uncomfortable and ultimately wore the shoes faster than I would have hoped. The Hyperion 3 is much tighter to the foot throughout the length of the shoe, almost to a fault, since they seem like they run a bit small. It makes the entire ensemble much more comfortable and stops any sliding around. The base of the sole also seems a bit wider, improving the stability. I did my half marathon on an extremely hilly course. The Hyperion 3s performed perfectly. They're very light, which paid off as the miles wore on. Their tread held up extremely well against punishing up hills and aggressive downhills. Their improved stability showed up on every downhill. I was able to confidently let er rip and let the bouncy soles carry me through the next flat. I'd absolutely get this shoe again for myself or recommend it to most friends. However, I'd hesitate before recommending it to someone who hasn't used a springy shoe before. These shoes have a unique feel to them that might be a shock if you aren't used to the bounce they provide. For my preferred feel though, they're a 5 star shoe.

Great Shoe, Super Comfortable

I recently purchased this shoe, and it's been great for my walking and running needs.

Love’em

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these shoes. Most shoes I break in for a few weeks. But out of the box and I went running, and they did not disappoint. The support is great and they are really comfortable.

Excellent Running Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent running shoe. Switched from the Ghost 17 and don not regret the decision.

Good Shoe, But No 2

This is a good shoe, BUT- as others have said, this is quite a departure from the Hyperion 2. It is bigger, less nimble, more cushion; basically a Ghost-ish version of the 2, which was an incredible shoe. I went through 6 or 7 pairs, and I would absolutely love if Brooks made that exact shoe forever. That is all I would buy. Please please please make the 4 just like the 2.

Best Overall Road Running Shoe I’ve Used

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was running Hyperion Tempos, and I was skeptical. These Hyperion 3s are amazing. Combined with my training they have helped me achieve an amazing watt/kg output. They are light, fast, and comfortable.

Amazing Brooks Shoes!

These are on the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I was in Ireland last week and wore these everywhere. My feet have never felt better!

Comfortable And Plushy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely comfortable. Great cushioning, I don't even feel the force in my feet and my knees as I run.

Good Fits And Very Comfortable

I bought this a month ago and I’m loving it, very comfortable and fits great not too big or wide. Definitely gonna find second pair with different color.

Miss Hyperion 2

Not same padding and fit as Hyperion 2. It’s alright but probably looking for a different shoe, doesn’t feel like I run as well with the giant padded sole

Great Quality & Best Fit

I have been wearing Brooks for the last couple of years, but this shoe is the best quality and best fit I've ever experienced.
