    Hello again so I just did have that one more question you told me about the adrenaline GTS but I did ask about the aerial GTS 23s do you think they’re as good as the adrenaline GTS if you got back with me I apologize I didn’t see it thank you again

    • @SoleMateRunning
      @SoleMateRunning 3 дні тому

      @watchmoivies123 hey, no worries. Adrenaline vs ariel, the aerial is as good if you need the additional support, over and above what the adrenaline gives. The aerial is a lot former due to the amount of firmer midsole used for the guiderails. As its an older revision of aerial (v23) vs the adrenaline 24, it will be even more firm as the midsole has been updated on the adrenaline gts 24. So for comfort, adrenaline gts 24 all the way!! But it does depend on how much support you need.

  • @watchmoivies123
    @watchmoivies123 4 дні тому

    So I have a wide foot and plantar fascia I’m sorry I might be saying it wrong but you probably know what I’m saying. It’s in the heel of my foot that has pain but I’m toss between the Brooks guide rails and the Brooks adrenaline 24s which shoe do you feel best for somebody that has a wider foot and plantar Fantasia I do walk every day so I wanna make sure I have a good shoe thank you very much

    • @SoleMateRunning
      @SoleMateRunning 4 дні тому

      @watchmoivies123 hi, thank you for the question. Brooks guiderails is the technology that is in the brooks adrenaline gts to make it more stable and supportive. Do you mean the Saucony guide? As far as know there's no shoe called Brooks guiderails. If you did mean the Saucony Ride then I would go for the Brooks Adrenaline GTS because of the higher heel to toe drop, which would reduce pressure on the heel and achilles, which will help with the Plantar Fascia issues you're having. In terms of width of your foot, obviously I haven't seen it, but you may need to go to a wide fit (2e width) or an extra wide (4e width) but you'd need to find what is comfortable for you. Make sure you're not tight against the side of your shoe as once you start running or walking and your feet swell it's very likely it will rub an cause discomfort and possibly blisters. I hope this helps

    • @SoleMateRunning

      @@watchmoivies123 Ah ok, so the Ariel (for women) and the Beast (for men) are also supportive shoes in the Brooks range, depending on the version you have (ie, the number) it may have an older midsole so could potentially be a firmer foam and not Nitrogen injected. the version 24 in the Ariel, Beast and Adrenaline have the new lighter, more responsive midsole (DNA Loft v3). The difference regardless of version is the Ariel / Beast will be firmer to it's Adrenaline counterpart and be more stable/firm, especially around the forefoot, where I talk about the flexibility grooves on the adrenaline. It uses more "guide rail". It'll be a similar heel to toe drop too, 10-12mm depending on version.

    Adrenaline GTS 23 vs 24 Mens shoe - is the 24 a bit narrower width at the forefoot than the 23? Long tem Brooks wearer here. Walking and light hiking in them rather than running. Went from Trance series to Glycerin, to Glycerin GTS. All in 10.5US D-width. I am thinking of switching to Adrenaline 23 or 24 for slightly firmer cushioning, and a little less instability feel. Not looking to go to the Beast, as last time I tried them, it felt like a pair of wooden boards strapped to my feet. So, not looking for a radical change, just slightly firmer cushioning. Thoughts? (I wear aftermarket insoles for arch support and added stability. )

    • @SoleMateRunning
      @SoleMateRunning 5 днів тому

      Hi, great question, thanks for taking the time to watch the video too. I think if you're going from the Glycerin GTS 21 to the Adrenaline GTS 24, there's not a massive difference if any, in the cushioning, there's just more of it in the Glycerin. (and GTS), which sounds like it would take away that feeling of instability, almost having too much midsole! Yes, the Beast is well, a beast!! it's not something we stock here, for that very reason !! Width wise, I think if anything it's a little more spacious in the forefoot that the previous version though, closer to the fit of the glcyerin now with this latest release. I hope this helps!! Paul

    Another brilliant video! Have to say it’s so refreshing to have an independent shop that gives no pressure advice and help to new runners. Even at 52 I was quite nervous entering the world of running but you guys took me through the gait analysis process and suggested a range of footwear options with no hard sell. Since the start of my c25k journey with my Brooks in July I’ve gained more confidence with parkruns and socials and joining the awesome club at Parc Bryn Bach, via their First Strides group. Now a few months later I ran 100 miles in October including the Richard Burton 10k a couple of weeks ago. Not sure I’d have taken those steps (😉), might have been put off running completely, if you hadn’t have offered a coffee and offered that friendly approach. Thank you 🙏🏼❤️🏃‍♂️

I'd love to come back to them if they were like the old feel. Any idea how they compare to the 19,20 and 21? Great vid and shop by the way. Popped up for a look a few weeks ago. Definitely a go to place when you need kit. Thanks.

      Great question :) The Lynx is another great shoe! The midsole's differ, it uses the Primo midsole, which is the new premium midsole from 361, so very comfortable again. the Vibram mega grip is this time a Litebase meaning it's a lot lighter in weight, but still with great great. The Lynx is aimed at more technical trail, if you're heading for the muddy mountains, then the Futura is your shoe. But it's a great alternative depending on your terrain. i hope this helps!
