        I currently run 40 plus miles a week training for a marathon. I keep looking for the magic show that'll make my feet feel perfect. So far, these are the best I have found. Not perfect but they feel good. Took a little while to really break into comfortable.

          I was having issues with shin and knee pain with my old pair, and also had some movement in the front part of my foot that didn't "feel right" in my old shoes.
          Tried these Ravenna and within 2 seconds I KNEW these were great - they felt like PART of my foot! My first run in them - 22k - was like I was running on clouds and I had NO shin or knee pain at all.
          Can't get any better than these.

            I went from running two marathons in Mizuno Wave Creation 14's (foot would hurt and cramp up by mile 18) to these Brooks Ravenna 4's and it has made all the difference in the world. Absolutely no foot pain or cramping through mile 26 at The New Jersey Marathon. I am so grateful to have found such a light weight and well cushioned shoe. This isn't your typical stability shoe and you can't beat it for the cost!

              I won't even try them for ten feet. I have laced them ten ways and I cannot get a system that doesn't bind the bottom eyelets and crimp down on my foot. Total let down. The construction shows defects and looks like I will wear them out in a month. I was so excited to get my new shoes and now and in the doldrums of waiting even longer after a return and repurchase of a better brand. I am sorry Asics and Mizuno. Just scratch Brooks off the list.

                  I bought these shoes at the store in Tempe and the workers were great. They took care of me and sat on the bench with me while I tried on every shoe and asked what I thought about it. When I got back to San Diego I took my friend to the store in Mira Mesa and all the did was drop off 4 different pairs and said pick the one you like. I felt like they didn't care because they knew that if someone came in that they would leave with shoes unlike the Tempe store where they had to work with the customer and make sure they were happy. I have gone in twice to the SD store and have not been very pleased with the service.

                    I run 30 miles a week. For years ran in Asics, which seem to self destruct in a short period of time. This shoe feels like it was made for my foot. Good pronation control, and just the right amount of padding without feeling clunky. I have the green shoes, and I must say, they are high visibility... You may not want to wear these casually, but for my money, they are the best running shoe for a pronator, on the market

                      I run about 30 miles/week in these shoes. I've put about 100 miles in them. So far so good. Some short runs, and a few 14-16 milers. Even some speed work. They're light, comfortable and offer the right level of support.

                      Love the forefoot feel - just right in thickness and firmness
                      The heal compresses too much to the point it feels like two different shoes when running - pour transition from mid-foot to toe off.

                          Had four pairs of Ravenna 2s. Got the 3's and wasn't too impressed. The 4 is a great update. Feels as good as the 2s. Five miles out of the box. I tend to heel strike and there is plenty of cushion. Highly recommend these shoes.

                            I have went to runners den for my past two pairs of shoes. Road runner is so much better! I am blown away by the staff and the amazing shoes they put me in. I had a double fusion surgery so a great shoe is very important to me. Runners den actually had me in the wrong type of shoe.

                              This is my second pair of Ravenna's. The price and comfortability is hard to beat. Eventhough I ran out my first pair in 7 months due to a breaking down of the coined Brooks DNA sole, I still feel like I got my money's worth.

                                    After running on Ravennas 2 for a while, I was very concern about changin to a different shoe.
                                    I now run on Ravenna 4, around 40 miles a week and I just feel it is a great show.
                                    I run outside and the shoe it is just perfect for any condition.
                                    Run no matter what the weather is and for me a show that can dry quick it's very important, after running a couple of times while raining the shoe dries quick and it does not get heavy.
