"A return to a great shoe"

Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8 is great. I have been using Brooks adrenaline shoes for about 6 years, the GTS7 were good, but not as good as the GTS 6 in my opinion. But the GTS 8 seems to fit better around the heel, giving a better "locked in feel". If you are a current brooks wearer, i would highly recommend this shoe. 5 stars

"Best running shoe"

I used to think I couldn't be a runner. Every time I'd run, my ankles and shins would burn so bad I'd have to stop after a few minutes. I'm in great shape too, it just didn't make sense. Well, turns out I just wasn't wearing the right shoes.

I went to a sporting goods store and got custom fitted and had my pronation profiled and all that, and they sold me the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8. Not only is this shoe comfortable and affordable, I can actually run now without having to stop because of ankle/shin pain.

Highly recommended shoe, but definitely try it on before you buy it to make sure it's right for you. 5 stars

"Great running shoe"

I bought the GTS 8 after trying all the competing models in the moderate stability category. They hold my heels much better than the other options. I've since bought a second pair and ran two half-marathons, a 20 km and a marathon with them. Great shoe. Comfortable, durable and the stability features really do seem to work. My knees no longer ache, even after long runs (20+ kms). 5 stars

"Best Shoe Ever"

I've been running for several years now. I've tried reebok, adidas, nike, mizuno, asics... al the big brands. Once i had this bad pain in my ankle after a 10K race. I even had to visit a doctor. He told me that my injurie was caused because an excessive pronation control of my in-that-time-current running shoes. He recomended to search for a Brooks dealer. First I was sceptical about it, but i gave it a try... the results are just amazing... I thought running was a hard sport... with this shoe it's simply easy... No more pain. no more extenuated legs. After a year using these shoes (three pairs already) I'm ready for a half marathon... Maybe next time i'll see you in NY... 5 stars

"Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8"

Excellent running shoe along with fast and reliable service through Amazon. They tend to be a little stiff the first day you use them, but they comform great as they get broken in. Ventilation is second to none! A true bang for the buck when purchased through Amazon (about a 30% saving) 5 stars
