Super comfortable and well made. Love the stability of the super wide soles. Nice wide toe box and very good looking shoe! Nice having the removable insole. Added my own orthotic which made the shoe even better!

I have wide feet and it’s hard to find good shoes that fit nice. I’m also military and we have to exercise 3 times a week, and I have plantar fasciitis (had to google that spelling, lol). I have custom soles, but they’re old. Thought I’d give these a try and maaaaan you never go wrong with this brand!! Shows fit & feel great!!! I have a pair of ghosts but they’re years old. Still work great, but I needed an upgrade. These shoes are great for everyday wear, as well as exercise. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the other brands. Brooks knows its customers and they build their shoes for comfort, quality, and activity 🤙🤙

I work as a pharmacy technician, and these are perfect for the job. The support under the heel is wide and cushy. The material is breathable, and they are very comfortable.

BEST running shoe I've ever purchased!! It usually takes me months to find a running shoe that fits properly. I stumbled on to this shoe and never looked back! They're comfortable and fit like a glove. I would definitely recommend these to anyone who is serious about a running shoe!!

They are great looking, comfortable and sturdy. I bought 2 other pairs of Brooks since buying these in early November...the Adrenaline GTS 22 and the Glycerin GTS 20. The 22 comes close to the 23 but a little too much arch support which I really don't need but it was $50 cheaper. The 23 wins at $139.95 vs $89.95. The Glycerine 20 was $119.95 came in 3rd place. All in all Brooks makes a good sneaker but my favorite is the Adrenaline 23. They are the benchmark for me. I am not a runner, but for me the 23 gives me all that I was looking for in a sneaker and I have a lot of other sneakers to compare them to.
The Brooks Men’s Adrenaline GTS 23 isn’t just a shoe; it’s a commitment to your running journey. Whether you’re chasing personal records or savoring the joy of movement, let the Adrenaline GTS 23 be your steadfast partner. Lace up, hit the pavement, and let the miles unfold—the road awaits, and so does greatness.
