1.	ewolfers rated this product 1 star Tue, February 19,2008: Comfortable and light but no longer a motion control shoe. They should now call this shoe the Pussy Cat.

2.	Shoe Dude rated this product 4 stars Wed, January 09,2008: In response to some of the other reviews: 1. This is a big runner shoe, hence the "plus" category... it's best for 180+ lb runners. Smaller runners should consider the Addiction. 2. Yes, the Beast 9 is a little softer than earlier versions, yet still very stable. If you prefer a firmer/stiffer s...

3.	Tom rated this product 2 stars Fri, January 04,2008: I have been wearing the Beasts since the 90's due to my 200 lb frame and flaat feet. They have always worked well with my orthotics and have gotten me through several half marathons and a few marathons. The 04 model was by far the best. The fit was much more supportive for me. The 09 does not have t...

4.	Al rated this product 2 stars Wed, November 21,2007: Used the previous model for years. This "updated" model is a mere shadow of its past. No longer for the Heavy runner.

5.	Al rated this product 5 stars Fri, November 16,2007: This is hands down the best shoe I ever wore,The cushion is geat and it never wares down I wish I would of tried the shoe years ago,shin and foot problems are gone love the ride.

6.	Mot rated this product 5 stars Tue, November 13,2007: I have been looking for the perfect shoe for over 30 years of running. I would gladly buy this current Beast for the rest of my life if Brooks would not change it. I have never worn a better pair of shoes ( including all Beasts since "97"). I realize that different people require different atribute...

7.	chuck rated this product 5 stars Fri, November 09,2007: My first pair of the beast but it is like running on air campared to the kayano the cushoning is great even in long runs my foot pain is gone, thanks brooks.

8.	brady mcgee rated this product 2 stars Thu, October 25,2007: this shoe is truly a beast. each one is 2.0oz shy of one pound. i am 5'9 and 118lbs and this shoe is not made for me. if you're any where inbetween 100-165lbs and have a flat arch you should really think about choosing a different brooks, such as the adrenaline.i love the brooks shoes but this modle...

9.	wayne rated this product 1 star Thu, October 25,2007: First time trying the beasts so I don't know how they compare to older models but I am usually always in pain after I run with these. Feet don't feel stable. I had 2 other pairs of addictions but thought I'd try the beast cause I'am over 200lbs. Looks like i'll be going back to the addictions cause...

10.	Erik Sebby rated this product 1 star Mon, August 27,2007: Have been running in the Beasts for 10+yrs. Really disappointed in the new Beasts this year. Softer,less forefoot-rearfoot control, sloppy and less control.Will be looking for a new shoe-

11.	JGG rated this product 4 stars Sat, July 14,2007: Great update. The mogo midsole is well cushioned (softer than substance 257 and more comfortable, but not mushy soft) and provides good stable support with the broad outersole, but the shoe is lighter and more flexible in the forefoot so toe-off is more efficient. Better protection from the pounding...

12.	Jt rated this product 5 stars Mon, July 02,2007: Worn Beast for many years,best one yet.

13.	Jim rated this product 5 stars Mon, May 21,2007: Not for heavier runners? No support for bigger guys? What? I'm 280 lbs and this is the best shoe I've ever worn. Plenty of cushion and support!!! I can understand some people saying that they don't like the fit, although I think its very good, but no cushion and support? They must have it out fo...

14.	Al rated this product 1 star Tue, May 15,2007: This model of Beast is not comparable to the previous models. Weak support. Arches do not match. I have worn Beasts for many years and am very disappointed in the current ones.No longer for the "heavier runner"

15.	John rated this product 1 star Wed, April 25,2007: I have had a terrible time with the new model Beast. The shoe is much lighter, but it doesn't fit me as well, or provide the same support that my old Beasts did. They tried to make it feel more like Asics Evolutions or something. I started having pain in my lower legs during the first run, and ...

16.	F-4 rated this product 4 stars Mon, March 26,2007: Best beast so far. Discussed sizing with RRP rep on phone. He suggested 11D for the Beast 9 vice my 10.5 Beast 4s. This was excellent advice because the fit is perfect. One full size would have been too much. I'm a heavy runner with b-a-a-a-d knees and these shoes have made it possible to continue t...

17.	Mot rated this product 5 stars Fri, December 01,2006: I have been wearing the Beast since 1997. I think that this is the best one yet. They widened it back to where it used to be before the 03-04 Beast. I like the MOGO. It seems lighter but has better flexibility. The stability is good and the cushion seems better than ever. The only question is wil...

18.	Ronald rated this product 4 stars Mon, November 20,2006: I have a wide forefoot, narrow heel, and I overpronate; but this shoe handles it very well.
