Men's Brooks Addiction 8

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

i am a Emergency ER nurse always on the run for 12 hrs, the shoes do half of my job.
I run marathons and half marathons. this is definitely the best motion control shoe out there.

the only bad thing is the limited shoe colors

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

My left foot hurt a lot after long runs. A podiatrist (who has run 50+ marathons) recommended this shoe 4 years ago, and I have had nothing else since. Great shoes.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

I jog 2 or 3 times a week for short distance - 2-3 miles. I like the support it gives for over-pronators. I've worn this shoe - and it's predecessors for 20 years!

Tried these out after Asics changed the design of the GT21XX. I do not think they are as wide as Asics, but they are comfortable - I've also found that the insole that comes with the Brooks are perfectly fine for flat-footed folks.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

I bought these to wear to work. They provide me a nice stable shoe to walk around in all day long. I run in stability shoes, but thought these might provide some added support considering I would be wearing them 8 or 9 hours a day. They have worked out great so far.

I've been running in the Brooks Addiction for many years. I think the first I purchased was the Addiction 2. This new version is not up to par with previous models. I find the shoe uncomfortable and workmanship poor (last two eyelets were not cut all the way through so as to string the lace). I've loved the Brooks Addiction line but I'm not happy with this edition.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

The new, narrower toebox is a complete disaster for me. The Addiction 4E was always my favorite shoe. Largely because Brooks seemed to understand that flat-footed people often need a wide toe. Well, like most good things in life, Brooks abruptly stopped understanding. I can't be crippling my big toes with all these pointy toeboxes, which shoe designers have decided are wonderful. For now, I will need to resort to the NB SL-2 last. A shame because I don't particularly like NB. As a certain Officer and a Gentlemen once whined, "I got no place else to go". I don't have an especially huge foot, it is just flat. waiting for more people to recognize their legitimate right to exist.

I am 185# and 6 ft but found the fit on the Beast 10 was too sloppy due to the wide tox box. The Addiction fits great and is quite a bit lighter but still retains all of the Beast's cushion and motion control (I use Superfeet).

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Great shoe, this is my first pair of motion control shoes. My feet feel better in these than walking barefoot on carpet or any other surface. Just the right amount of cushion. Will buy theses again.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

I have very flat feet so I am looking for a wide shoe with great support. I wear my inserts also. This shoe made the backs of my heels hurt, but they are getting better.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Very pleased with this shoe. I had been using the Brooks Adrenaline but switched to Addiction for better pronation control.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

These shoes have great cushioning and last well

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Wow, This shoe is something else!

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Ive been running for years. Prior to these i used to run in the nike free 5.0 v2. I have had these shoes for a couple of days and WOW. My knee pain is much less drastic when i run,the fit and feel are true to size. The MOGO cushioning is better than i expected. It basically just feels great to have these shoes on. Once i get over my runners knee i have no doubt i will be able to put this shoe to great use. Perfect for people with flat feet. Also a great walking shoe. I had no idea how important proper footwear was until i got these in the mail. Cheers

I was wearing ASICS and I got ITB inflamation then I switched to these and I have been injury free ever since. Great shoes. I'm 5'7 140 and have been runnning since high school. I got ITB inflamation about 10 years ago but cured it with a few months rest and switching shoes.

I rotate Brooks Addiction with my Mizuno Alchemys. The Addictions are a good shoe.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Loved the 7s...but the 8s gave me knee problems. They felt a little small and I can't put my finger on the other differences but the shoe is definitely different. Good news is that after reading a little more it sounds like the 8s run a little narrow, so I may try the next width up.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

Sorry too narrow for me.

Comments about Mens Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe:

I'm 5'10", 183 lbs and have flat feet. These shoes fit me perfectly. These will be the first shoes I've owned that fit great without me having to use my orthodics and two pairs of socks.
