Will most definitely be purchasing the Adrenaline 23. I have 3 pairs of 22's. The Adrenalines and the Karhu fusion are my go to first choices. Great video- super informative on explaining GTS. Thank you.
3 weeks ago ,I broken my foot in two places, and my specialist high recommended this shoes,the first day i was wearing this shoes i felt very good ,instead the boots,my foot is getting better ,and better.. My is Brooks adrenaline AdrenalineGts 23.
I am just curious how these fit compared to the 22. They are a bit snug for me and a wide should fit perfect, the ghost 14 is a bit on the edge but fine as normal but the ghost 15 is a touch roomier and is perfect for me. I love that they do feel a bit firm underfoot which is great since for me it's a workout/gym shoe and I don't always want as much give as other shoes will give.
Thank you. I was looking for a pair of shoes to wear on the Camino in September, and this looked like a suitable candidate. Is there a more suitable shoe for someone walking 25-30 km daily at a relaxed pace? The Camino is not a race and does not need a lot of performance shoe features. But it does need shoes that will not give you blisters and will last 600 km before they start to fall apart.
I got a pair of these back in March. They really helped me out with my knee pain but now my issue is that because I supinate pretty hard, they roll pretty hard to the outside. This was my first brooks and would buy another for sure. Should my progression take me towards maybe the ghost max or the beast?
I am about to order this. I hope this fixes the problem in the 21 and 22. The 21 had a collapsing toe box, and the 22 had the heel cushion rubbing against my heel. I’ve been relying on ordering spare pairs of the 20s and they are so hard to find in a size 14 😭
Didn’t like the new style laces in the 22 from the 21 and I find the heel cushions wear really quick but as for comfort and usability it’s a great shoe and I always recommend these over Skechers when people ask my opinion,and like a previous comment the Hoka equivalent seems so bulky
Hi Steve, thank you for a great review of a shoe that I have worn alot of years. It seems this shoe has gotten narrowed or my feet wider. Do you think this version of D width is a wider toe box than last year. I had to go up to a 2E. Previously
A bit sad to hear that you think Brooks will be making modifications in future Adrenaline models. I've used Adrenalines for many years - probably close to 15 years. The 20 was absolutely the PERFECT shoe for me. That shoe was the most comfortable shoe, of any kind, that I have ever owned. It fit so well that I purchased several pairs. My multiple pairs of 20s finally wore out, and I had difficulty finding 20s being sold anymore, so I was forced to purchase the 22s. The 22s are very similar to the 20s, but they simply did not fit me as perfectly as the 20s did. Looking back, I should've purchased 10 pairs of the 20s, as I highly doubt I will ever come across another shoe that fit me so well.
Great information. I wear Brooks Ghost 14 & 15 now. Do you think the Adrenaline GTS 23 have a better arch support than the Ghost? I have had both feet/arch and hip issues so I am trying to get the best Brooks for those needs. I am sold on Brooks, just not sure which style gives the best support, especially in the arch.
Yes. The Adrenaline GTS 23 will have more arch support thanks to Brooks' proprietary GTS Go-To-Support GuideRail technology. If you want even more support, the Ariel GTS is designed with support in mind. Having a wider base alongside the GuideRails helps make it a maximum support shoe.
Hi. I need your opinion. I have bunions- the right foot seems to have more pains in the bunion, not always though. My right foot “ducks” outward and the arch on my right foot has come down more than the left foot arch. I am looking for shoes for walking in… any suggestions? Thank you for your time and help.
Greetings from DC! I’ve enjoyed running in Brooks Ghost (11 and 14) for the past few years, but I switched to the Hoka Arahi 6 for some added stability since I tend to strike on the outside of my forefoot (supinate). The shoe fitter at my local running store suggested the Arahi, but after about 120 miles, I haven’t seen much difference. The wear pattern on the outsole is no different than the wear pattern on my previous neutral shoes and the shoes feel unnecessarily bulky. Wondering if the Adrenaline would have been a better choice for me.
I bought the Hoka Arahi and returned them for the Brooks ,it was like walking on a platform,if you purchase from the manufacturer you can sometimes get a free trial
I highly recommend you try out the adrenaline. It's one of my favorites in my lineup of shoes. Talk to the store. Usually, they approve of a return if it isn't right for you for up to 60 days.
I went from adreneline 21 to Arina 6. They were so different. The Arina was bulky and very soft. Adreneline had a more firm structure and reacted quicker. I'm a heel striker.
Thanks for the advice, y’all! I purchased the shoes back in February so I’m well outside of the 60 day return or 90 day exchange window. This is my first pair of stability/non-neutral shoes and I didn’t realize that the Adrenaline is just the stability version of the Ghosts that I really enjoyed. Live and learn!
I have narrow overpronated feet, and I have been dealing with painful bunions in the last 4 months. I haven’t been able to run😢 because of pain. I usually wear the ascics GT series. Could you recommend me a better shoe for my feet? I don't want surgery😭
Sorry to hear! It is not fun to not run! I think something with a wider toe box like an Altra Paradigm 7. It has a wide toebox shape and provides great medial support. The Hoka Arahi 6 is another great option for a comfy toe box and superb medial support for your pronation. You could try this shoe in a wide option. Both shoes have a low to zero drop (Altra is zero drop, Hoka is 5 mm drop) which we have found to help with these issues. Hope that helps! Thank you!
Hi I have high arched feet and was recommende brooks adrenaline . I got brooks 22 version and love them I can stand and walk with out my feet turning outward: I was recommended by a podiatrist before to try hoka. Are hoka better than brooks?
I've been running in New Balance 860s for a while. I'm thinking of transitioning to GTS 23. Currently, on 860 v12. What do you think 860 v13 or GTS 23s?
The Adrenaline is a great alternative shoe line to the 860. The biggest difference you will notice is that the Adrenaline is slightly firmer in the cushioning. We find that Brooks' DNA Loft midsole is firmer compared to other brands' midsole foams. Comparing the 860v13 to the Adrenaline GTS 23, the 860 has better arch support, whereas the Adrenaline has better all-around stability.
Man they used to look so much cooler like the gts 15,16 and 17 and under looked so much cooler than how they look now. Probably way more heavier though
That would depend on what you are doing. If you want a jack-of-all-trades shoe that you can do a bit of everything in, we recommend the Adrenaline. If you want something a little bit more cushioned and a little bit more support that's going to be better for walking, we recommend the Beast. The Beast is a more cushioned, more stable running shoe that is heavier than the Adrenaline. The Adrenaline is a more streamlined, less cushioned, stable shoe that is great for a plethora of different activities.
Hello. Have a week ankle due to 3 bad sprains. Have hallux rigidus, mortons neuroma, and flat feet. Its also 10 weeks out for me since a 5th metarsal break. Oy vey. Is the GTS23 the best for me?
We recommend the Beast/Ariel over the Adrenaline because the Beast/Ariel GTS 23 has more support than the Adrenaline GTS 23. If you have Mortons Neuroma, you should check out the Aetrex L705 inserts we carry. They have a metatarsal pad that spreads pressure in your forefoot and helps with the pain it can cause.
@RunMoore Thank you. I just ordered through Amazon the GTS 23, and I'm disappointed with the quality of the shoe. It seems flimsy. Is the Beast/,Ariel a better quality?
The Adrenaline GTS is plenty stable. The Brooks Go-To-Support Guiderail system helps provide stability on both the medial and lateral sides of the feet. Compared to some of the other competitors, the Adrenaline GTS 23 is one of the most stable shoes in its category and price point.
Same case here. 21 was my holly grail. 22 totally destroyed my runs due to smaller width (I'm a 4E) plus my left foot rubs the inner guardrail. Never had these issues with 21
Unfortunately, the shoe has very little cushioning under the forefront. Bought it a month ago but experiencing severe pain in shin and hips and a little pain in ankles. Not for forefoot strikers. Wasted purchase. Going for saucony tempus next.
I've never run in that model but from what I know, this is somewhat close. The Solarglide is also a stability shoe but the midsole is much more performancey than the Adrenaline (one of the reasons the Adidas costs so much more). If you were looking for a Brooks shoe that is closer to this (although not Gor-Tex), I would check out the Glycerin GTS 21 or Hyperion GTS. They both are a more responsive, stability options from Brooks.
@@RunMoore I just bought the Solar Glide the other day. Went down Half a size from my usual size 11 (got a 10.5) as it was (not sure) either too long or just plain wide.
I bought these. Do these take a bit to feel comfortable? This is my first stability shoe and they feel a bit different. I guess I'm used to super squishy shoes. I tried the hoka bondi and I hated them. So this is a completely different feel.
Thanks for watching the video. There will be a slight difference in feel from a supportive shoe compared to your standard plush walker. You should notice a pressure against your arch. This is the stability providing support for your arch. It usually takes a couple of weeks to get used to. If you don't, however, we always recommend trying a neutral shoe with an aftermarket insert.
We need to start building homes out of plastic bricks or something that fit together like legos and then are sealed up, i see way to many truckloads of trees getting hauled on a daily basis, and all the cool spots in the forest sre gone they just plant a bunch of poplar, trying to get my mom to quit buying thise water bottle cases, she just goves me the oh brother
I have the 22. Not liking them. The midsole feel is not on par with my other shoes. Too firm and too dead. Fairly stable and the outsole grip is good. Unfortunately for running, I appreciate a little more cushioning and bounce. For the version 23, I am not convinced. I am sold over by NB and Hoka. I felt they got what I paid for. Not the 22 which is kinda garbage to me. Felt like wasted my money and tempted to chug them in the bin but it is kinda bad for the environment. I will wear them so that I can really appreciate other shoes.
Let me cut thru the Bull...these shoes suck for the price. They are soft and squishy, and lack support. They feel like a pair of cheap shoes I would buy at Payless. For context, I have purchased over 10 Brooks GTS Adrenaline 's over the years. I still wear a pair of GTS 16's on and off, and they have a better fit than the GTS 23's and that takes in account all the miles I put on them including mowing the lawn. I also have a pair of GTS 22's that feel world's better than these GTS 23s. I will hold off buying anymore Brooks running shoes until I am sure they have improved the quality of their product. I do feel this last shoe was a cheap rip off.
@@1Sierra47 according to my work boots, walking on warehouse floors and concrete all day as a road service tech for forklifts my wear pattern shows supination, outside of boots noticeable more wear at least on the heel portion in particular. Trying to see what would work well for me for an everyday shoe with good cushion but not for running, like an everyday trainer type
These are what I run in. Love these, glad to hear there are not too much changes from v 22.
The Adrenaline is definitely a fan favorite here at Run Moore. We're glad to hear that you love them as well!
Will most definitely be purchasing the Adrenaline 23. I have 3 pairs of 22's. The Adrenalines and the Karhu fusion are my go to first choices. Great video- super informative on explaining GTS. Thank you.

Got my new Adrenaline GTS 23's on Friday. Love them! Love the new color options, too.
14-week post achilles I rely on these and hokas! both helping me heal!
Just got a pair and oh my, best show I've ever owned by far.
Gonna pick up some today I believe, or the Revel 6, I bet the adrenaline is more padded

Started with the 22s and the only shoe I’ll buy now for everything.
Skipped the 22 so wil go from 21 to 23. Definitely excited to take this to a run!
It really is a great shoe, we hope you enjoy it!
You made a good choice. I have the 22. It is garbage
Great explanation! Own some and are amazing. Thank you!
Will be ordering. Thank you. Subbed!
Great review!
Have very similar issues (supinate).
Great advice on shoes

They just need more color options in wide. The 23s have a yellow option with blue accents that are super fly but aren't available in wide.
Interesting description about the Brooks adrenaline gts. Like from 🇪🇸. My weight is a 65kgs and i like the hyperion Max. A nice weekend for everyone.
Thank you so much for watching! The Hyperion Max is a fantastic shoe from Brooks as well.
Thank you for this video!
