Brooks Adrenaline GTS 7

WE SAY: The latest Adrenaline hasn't changed a lot--but that's a good thing. One subtle improvement: Brooks repositioned the upper overlays farther back to better support the midfoot. This gives the shoe a cleaner look and roomier feel. Also, the midsole features a new foam that's designed to be more durable. RW lab tests showed the shoe to be the firmest in the guide, so we recommend it for bigger runners with normal arches who need a stable, trustworthy shoe.

WEAR-TESTERS SAY: "The shoe didn't change much. It's still a workhorse."--Christopher Garges, 31, Allentown

"Just the right amount of stability. A great shoe for everyday training." --Darla Brown, 43, East Lansing

Three days ago I went to my local running store and had the salesman fit me for a pair of shoes. He recommended these, among others. Of the ones that I looked at, these were the most comfortable and they happened to be on sale. I am a small guy at 130 lbs and a slight over pronator. I took my new shoes out of the box and went for a 13.1 mile run and my feet felt awesome. I crosstrained in them yesterday and today I went on an easy 6 mile run with a 2 mile cool down afterwards. These shoes so far feel really great. Only time will tell though as to how well they hold up..

Just finished my first run in these and all I can say is, wow. I am a slight overpronator and i weigh 190lbs. I have suffered from shin splints ever since i started running about half a year ago, and these shoes seem to have gotten rid of them. Big improvement over my last pair of shoes, asics gel 1100, for me anyway. Great fit and cushioning!.

I have a history of feet problems and foot pain. I am a novice runner who has run one marathon and one half. I am very happy with the shoe except on a minus forty windchill run where the mesh is not ideal. Great shoe..

Just finished my 2nd run in new Adreanlines I am a overpronator with a light foot strike and weigh 170 lbs. The shoe seems quite stable with a definite improved midsole. Only time and miles will tell about the durabiltiy of the shoe.
