Brooks Men's Adrenaline GTS 22 Supportive Running Shoe

These are the only shoes my sensory sensitive son will wear. It took months to find a shoe style that doesn't cause issues for him. The Adrenaline GTS 22 was the perfect shoe for him. It stabilizes his foot and ankle, doesn't have a super high arch, doesn't have an overly or under padded sole, and is light weight. He loves the colors too, there's always a cool color to pick. Sadly they are phasing the 22 out and moving to the 23, which have a lot more padding in the sole and don't offer the same support and stability. I'm buying this style shoe in every size as he continues to grow because they're the best! The bright yellow is awesome and he gets a lot of compliments on the color.

I go to Orange Theory - a High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) exercise class - about 5 times per week. There is a combination of rowing, running, and weights / agility. I think these shoes are excellent for Orange Theory, as their stack height (height of the midsole foam) is reasonable, there are some guardrails to provide stability, and enough cushion for 3 to 5 mile runs on the treadmill.Surprisingly, finding a good pair of shoes for the rowing machine can be difficult. If the shoe has too much foam and overly cushioned, one loses a lot of force in the leg drive due to the cushioning in the shoe. The Adrenalines have a reasonable amount of foam and the foam is a bit more firm, so not as much energy is lost in the shoes during the row.The shoes have "guard rails" around the heel of the shoe. The idea behind these guard rails is to limit the heel movement if one overpronates (role in) or supinates (roll out). These guard rails really help with agility exercises that have a lot of lateral movement, keeping the foot planted in the shoe. I have tried agility exercises in running shoes that have high stack heights and limited lateral stability and I;m always afraid of rolling an ankle.The shoes are designed for running and they are comfortable for the treadmill. I can easily do 3 to 5 mile runs with no issues.The fit is ample - the toebox is pretty wide. The feel of the foam is firm, rather than squishy like some of the new foams. There's plenty of rubber on the outsole, so they won't wear out quickly.The only con with these shoes is the foam is the tried and trued EVA (essentially Styrofoam and Elmer's Glue), which I find tends to break down faster than some of the new foams like Adidas Boost, Nike React, and Saucony's Powerrun+.

I am a devoted fan of the Brooks Men's Adrenaline GTS 22 Supportive Running Shoe, and this latest purchase marks my fourth pair. These shoes have consistently exceeded my expectations, providing exceptional comfort, support, and durability. The design of the Adrenaline GTS 22 is a testament to Brooks' commitment to quality, ensuring a perfect blend of stability and cushioning for my runs.The fit is impeccable, hugging my feet securely without feeling too tight. The support they offer is unparalleled, making them an ideal choice for long-distance runs or casual jogging. The durability of these shoes is impressive, and they maintain their high performance even after extended use. The stylish aesthetic is an added bonus, making them suitable not only for running but also for everyday wear.Brooks has undoubtedly created a winner with the Adrenaline GTS 22, and my loyalty to this model is a testament to its outstanding features. If you're in search of a reliable and comfortable running shoe, I wholeheartedly recommend giving the Brooks Men's Adrenaline GTS 22 a try.

I have arthritis in both feet and have had a complete knee replacement on my right knee, so I do not jog, but do walk and hike. While these are no what I use for hiking, I've got expensive hiking boots, I do use these daily for every other activity. I've got this shoe, Brooks Ghost and Brooks Beast. Due to needing motion control shoes any of these three works. The Beast is to me the best for motion control, but they are more expensive and seem a little heavier. This shoe is nice, I can walk 2 miles a day and my feet don't hurt. Perfect arch support looks nice and built very well. I'm 70 and if you are my age, you probably have arthritis of some type so buy you a pair of Brooks shoes. Any of the three I listed. Your feet and ankles will love you for it.

I bought these shoes for 13 hour days on my feet as a nurse. I am happy with the purchase and glad I bought them. My knees and feet feel a lot better already and they get lots of compliments too!I bought two pairs to alternate between (teal and white) and had been previously wearing a pair of GTS 21’s. Overall they’re much more stylish, a little more supportive (they feel wider and taller), and about the same comfort level as the 21’s.The only downside in my opinion… they are a little less durable than the 21’s. The 21’s used a harder rubber material on the tread. The new shoes use a softer material on the tread, and I have noticed some small chunks missing already.Mind you I’ve only had these shoes for 2 months, and I only work four 13 hour shifts a week and alternate between my two pairs. I go for a 30 minute walk outside every morning before work on pavement, walk through a parking garage, then spend the rest of my day indoors. I’ve never used these shoes to go on a run.If you’re wearing the shoes casually or indoors I’d 100% recommend them. If you’re looking for something to run or hike in and value durability over style, I’d probably take a look at the 21’s. Photos of the two for comparison. Can’t go wrong either way though.Edit: 4 star review is only for the extreme decrease in durability that I’ve noticed, I would expect them to be a little tougher for the price. Other than that they are 5 star shoes and I’m still glad I bought them.
