By JoJo's mom from Aspen, CO on 10/28/2009 Best Uses: Gravel, Level dirt trail, Pavement Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I run 16 - 20 miles a week, I'm 5'5" 140#. This shoe didn't work for me. It's not a bad shoe, but I inadvertantly got a "D" width which was sloppy around the arch (I'm a B width). Additionally I am a forefoot striker and this shoe's heel was too built up for me. It feels a lot like the Brooks adrenaline on the foot. I was looking for a replacement for my old Glycerin 6's. All this being said, I think this shoe may be a very comfortable runnin shoe for the right person, I just wasn't that person. Too bad, because they are a great price! One other thing, I rated these shoes as true to size, because they fit true to running shoe size. (1/2 size larger than street shoe size to allow room for foot expansion when running). I only rated them too wide because they were D width.

Brooks shoes seem to be more consistent in sizing than competitors.
By kellbell from washington dc on 10/26/2009 Pros: Absorbs Shock, Breathable, Comfortable, Flexible, Lightweight Describe Yourself: Competitive Athlete Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: My daughter runs for a University and uses these shoes for her daily runs. She runs about 70 miles/week. Her college provides free Asics, but she only uses those to go to and from class. The Brooks work best for her.

Great buy and wonderful support!!! By gr8intntseyes from Seneca, SC on 10/19/2009 Pros: Absorbs Shock, Breathable, Comfortable, Flexible, Good Traction, Lightweight, Stable Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these for my daughter ... she's in middle school and needed a good shoe since she's
1) busy during the day.
2) got an unusual gait ... walking with her feet pointed out like Fred Flintstone and
3) recently started complaining of ankle problems.
She picked out the color of the shoes and was thrilled when they arrived. She is very happy with her "Brooks", wearing them daily. That's awesome since she's a teen -- I'm very pleased :)

By Roger's Momma from Colorado Springs, CO on 10/02/2009 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Stable Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Sizing: Feels half size too small Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: The toe box in this shoe was not very tall/high, so even though shoe was the correct length/size my toes always felt pushed down. There was no way I could actually run in these so I had to return them.

These shoes fill the bill. I ordered a second pair to have when the first ones wear out. I don't know about durability, so gave 4 stars.
These shoes are AWESOME!!! By Fitness Fanatic from Timonium, Maryland on 09/16/2009 Pros: Absorbs Shock, Flexible, Good Traction, Lightweight, Stable, Unbelievable support Best Uses: Gym, My legs are energized, Pavement, Track Describe Yourself: Competitive Athlete Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I run everyday and these shoes are amazing! I didn't think any Brooks shoe could equal the Trance I purchased last year, but Defyance has done it. My legs are not tired after a run and I feel so energized while I run wearing these shoes. The support and heel traction is unbelievable. This is a great shoe for both beginning and established runners.
