Great Shoes For Stable And Secure Work, And Cute On Top

I bought these for my daughter as she had outgrown her old school sneakers. We brought her in to look and try on a few pairs of sneakers, and she instantly loved these. She found, and still finds them really comfortable and seems to be more secure when on her feet running or playing around. On top of that we found them in a cute color which was really important to my daughter as she would be wearing them to school through the end of the year, and to other places as well. We've had various pairs of Brooks in my house over the past few years, and like all others they last a while and hold up well to daily use. My daughter really likes them and wears them constantly.

Can’t Believe I Didn’t Try Brooks Sooner

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t believe I waited so long to purchase good running shoes for myself. I am plus sized, just getting back in to my health journey, and these shoes deliver. I am able to do my 35 minutes of cardio with no knee and ankle soreness. I will definitely be buying Brooks Running shoes moving forward

Favorire Out Of All Of Them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best running shoe out of all of them. Anthems do NOT hurt my feet, they don't ache. And I run faster. Need to make more of these. Oh, and I also get lots of compliments on the the color, green; I tell them immidately Anthems are the way to go; ie, everyone thinks Glycerines hurt their feet, me included.

Nice Cushioning, But No Removable Insole, And Squeaks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wear Brooks Running shoes exclusively. I recently purchased the Anthem 8 as it was a great price point. I didn't read the entire description of the shoes, and realized that the insole cannot be removed. I need an orthotic and cannot use them in these shoes. I will be returning due to this issue as wells the squeaking when I walk on a hard surface. I am hopeful that my old standard, the Ghost, is still the quality I expect from Brooks.

Best Sneakers Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Anthem 8’s. Incredibly comfortable. Looking to get another pair.

Not Really A Fan Of Anthem 8

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a fan of the Anthem shoes for several years now. However, the Anthem 8 is too soft in the sole. I need the stability that the previous versions offered. It's still a well built shoe, just wish it was not so soft and squishy on the bottom.

So Comfortable!

I bought these specifically for walks, but the shoe is so comfortable and easy to wear that even my daughter is wearing them to high school.

Comfortable, Lightweight, And True To Size

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it! Comfortable, lightweight, and true to size. Great for everyday wear. Overall, a solid, stylish choice.

Sticking With Ghost From Now On

I decided to try Anthem instead of Ghost, which I always buy. I found the Anthem to be too narrow, and I actually have narrow feet. I do have problems with my feet and within a day of wearing the new Anthem shoes, I developed a blister on my right foot. Fortunately, sending them back, receiving a refund and buying a new pair of Ghost was easy. I liked the cushioning of Anthem, but the blister was a reason to return.

Anthem 8

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Athem 8’s are comfortable and provide support. They are not my most favorite Brooks shoe that I own.
