      Comments about Womens Brooks Ravenna 4 Running Shoe:

      I used to wear the Ravenna One and Two which were perfect! They were more narrow in the forefoot which I prefer since my feet are narrow. The Threes were awful for me-clunky and sloppy during my long 8 to 10 mile runs. I sent them back weeks after trying them. I tried Brooks Pure Cadence and became injured after a few months. I then tried the Mizuno Inspire 9's which were nice, but wider and wore out very fast running 40 plus miles per week. I broke down and tried the new Ravenna's again. Out of the box this morning, they felt like the Ravenna of old! I ran 10 miles happily ever after. Thanks Brooks!!!

            I got this shoe to use for my long runs (8+ miles). It felt clunky, but I gave it try on a recent half marathon. I had pain in both first metatarsals; a pain I've never had before, and since it was in both feet, I suspected it to be the shoe and not an injury. I decided to return them.

                  Run 5-6 days per week and average 20-35 miles per week. Brooks running shoes hold up well to this mileage. The ravena feels like it provides more cushion than many stability shoes.

                    Avid runner (45+ mile a week) with narrow feet. I run both on roads and trails. I prefer fairly light, less cushioned shoes (I do not wear inserts)but still with some structure/padding. Used to run in Asics (too wide, too padded, felt "too fat"), swichted to Brooks -- much better shoe for somebody light, fit, and without major knee, ankle, etc...- issues.

                          Comments about Womens Brooks Ravenna 4 Running Shoe:

                          I am a nationally and world ranked age group duathlete. I need a shoe that is light yet durable as my sport has 2 runs with a bike ride in between, thus my legs are heavy for second run and don't need a heavy shoe!

                          I also found the " regular" lacing great....so many other shoes have new lacing which tends to pull my arches down.

                            I love the Ravenna 4's. I previously was wearing the Ravenna 3's. The shoe strings on the 3's always came untied so I had to double tie them and they seemed to be stiff. The 4's don't come untied and have great cushioning. Awesome shoes!

                                  I used to be a fan of Brooks Adrenaline -- wore them for about 10 years and ran three half marathons in them -- but the new model didn't work for me. After running in them on the road or treadmill my knees would be sore walking down stairs. Not sure if that is because I was mostly running on dirt the last few years and recently started running on the roads and treadmill or if it was the changes they made in the most recent model. The Ravena provide more cushion and seem to be working out for me, no more sore knees. Very happy with this purchase and with Road Runner Sports!

                                  I have run 15 marathons the last three Bostons, and usually wear the Brooks Adrendalines. I decided to try the Ravennas, and am sorry to say they were uncomfortable. My old injuries started to hurt while running, that evening and next day continued to hurt. They were not for me!

                                    These are my first pair of Brooks - I've had the Mizuno Wave and I wore those down to nothing - so I decided to try this pair. I was so pleased to find out that they were just as good as my Mizunos, if not better! They fit the top of the foot really well and is form fitting. Wore them today for a short run to break them in and they felt great!
