5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the knees and feet!, July 26, 2008

Having recently had my knee scoped and seeing a physical therapist, I was referred to a store that fits supportive shoes to your particular walking/running style. This shoe was recommended to me (pronator) and I am very impressed. I usually wear an 8-8 1/2 shoe, 9 -9 1/2 in running shoes, but this one was fitted to me in a 10 D! (They do run small.) I can wear any sock with it and even have orthotics placed in them. Very supportive and very comfortable. My therapist was very impressed with the last they had and even took them around to show them to the other therapists. A great shoe that I will definitely buy again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Shoe...no more pain, November 19, 2008

This review is from: Brooks Women's Addiction 8 Running Shoe (Apparel)

I went to a runners store to buy shoes because I was experiencing pain with a bunion while trying to exercise. I do not run. I first tried a New Balance shoe that I returned because my foot just moved around in it too much (I tried several inserts and a variety of lacing techniques.) I gave up and tried this shoe after reading reviews of Addition 7. Well...Problem solved...what a comfortable shoe. They have even washed very nicely. The mesh keeps my feet cool and I am able to tie the shoe to hold my heels and arches in place while leaving my toes and the balls of my feet free in the shoe.

5.0 out of 5 stars Been Buying the Addiction for 8 years, March 4, 2009

This review is from: Brooks Women's Addiction 8 Running Shoe (Apparel)

I have been buying the Brooks Addiction shoes for 8 years after being referred to them at a specialty store. I am a pronator but was running significant mileage at the time and needed a shoe that could handle my being a larger runner with very large feet and stand up to the 20 or more miles I was running a week. These are hands down the best shoes for people who need support and come in a variety of sizes. I obviously am a loyal Brooks buyer, This version fits a bit smaller, I noticed, I am ready to transition into a 12 from and 11.5 but otherwise mostly unchanged. Love it!
