Brooks Men's Addiction Walker 2 Walking Shoe

I’m still wearing a black pair of Addiction Walkers that I bought in 2015. I’ll submit the pics. I just purchased a white pair 10 years later. There are differences in design and function, yet the new pair is the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever had in all my life. That being said the old pair was ALL LEATHER. The new pair is not, yet, the shoe is lighter and the leather is softer and more comfortable. The Addiction Walker is maybe the highest quality, most durable shoe on the market. I’m basing my opinion on the 10 year old pair I still wear. Like I said the old style was all leather this new shoe has a synthetic piece mid foot sewed into the leather. This new shoe is much more comfortable out of the box. Softer leather, lighter sole, easier to walk in. The old shoe was hot on long walks and it was very heavy. If you walk long in the sun definitely get white. The newer shoe is lighter and a pleasure to walk in. I had to go up a half size in the new shoe. The toe box is not as wide and the mid-foot sole has been narrowed to my disappointment. You will see on the pics. This shoe is the only shoe on the market made for extremely flat 4EE or XW or XXW feet. I’m wide in the mid foot and the old Addiction didn’t narrow mid-foot and it was the only shoe made that did not. Brooks should change back to the wide mid foot. It offers enhanced stability and prevents entirely vertically feet from hanging over the inner sole. That being said this shoe is the pinnacle of stability. Even this new shoe that has a smaller toe bed and more narrow mid foot is able to plant my 225 lb 4E foot securely. I did have to go to my most aggressive orthotic to make up for the new more narrow mid foot sole. The new shoe in white is an eye pleasing masterpiece. I’m 52 and the kids wearing $200 Jordan’s are staring at them. Total upgrade in looks even with the non leather section. The old shoe’s major fault was that it was dangerous on wet flooring or snow. The new shoe has an updated sole that’s lighter, more flexible, but probably won’t last 10 years. The new shoe has a roll battle shape to it makes walking effortless. The 10 year olds were old school but great. Not suitable for most people who would say they were hot and stiff…partly true. I’ll be able to walk 10 miles in the new style. I bought two pair of SAS (San Antonio Shoe Maker) Journey II White leather shoes at $235 a pair and to my surprise the Addiction Walkers beat them in style, comfort, I’m sure durability, and support. Originally I thought these shoes were the best shoes for wide feet but honestly I truly believe they’re the best walker, general wear, training shoe there is. Look at my pictures as proof. The black pair is 10 years old. Years ago the tip of the sole became separated and I glued it back on. That was my only issue. I do take good care of my shoes by the way. I would use Coach leather moisturizer to clean them every few months (maybe that’s why lol.)

Excellent shoes for my husband. His leg had been hurting him and these shoes have helped reduce the pain. He had a wide foot and they fit right out of the box. This is a good quality, consistently trusted brand. Worth the price to have comfort and support. We do wish they came in some cooler looking styles but will choose comfort first.

I just got them this morning put it on for work so far it feel great and comfortable, I work at Security and my job is standing and walking all day so I need a comfortable and professional looking shoes, when I saw this pair I know it was the one, I recommend if you do lot's walking and standing.

Good straight out of the box. First things first, know your feet and choose it right. Good support inside and outside My arch is a bit mid, first few days , feet were sore as I was using adidas ultra boost type of footwear. After some usage, feel it great as my socks are not thick but synthetically sweat friendly thin. Pricey but nicely fitted for my feet

A bit on the heavier side of shoes especially if you are used to running shoes. That said, as a 5+ mile a day walker who was starting to develop plantar fasciitis these shoes have brought much welcomed relief. They take a while to break in, but they are a comfortable and steady shoe especially if you have a wide foot such as myself. Price is inline with other solid options and I've been so pleased with these, I will be purchasing a second pair to have both colors available for work during the week.

They where comfortable as for sturdy and standing but just way too small as for as a men 101/2 it's not true to size

My husband just loves these shoes. He will not go to another sneaker.

My husband loves the shoes size fit perfectly. He says they’re very comfortable and great for walking.

After a long time (many months to over a year) of wearing a pair of these, I'll confirm they are comfy too walk in and the tread lasts really well (mostly pavement and gravel). The gaps between the tread are thin, so crossing soft mud or similar is likely to fill then easily and leave a smooth no track finish, but not really meant for that.
