The midsole and outsole of the latest GTS are more segmented under the heel, which helps better isolate and disperse impact. RW Shoe Lab tests confirmed that this feature has improved the shoe's cushioning. Brooks has also brought back the rounded heel outsole design that many runners liked in the GTS 6, so the heel rolls onto the ground more smoothly. Recommended for runners with low to normal arches seeking a soft, durable trainer.

This is my first pair of "real" running shoes. I got fitted at a Fleet Feet store and tried on about 6 pair of shoes. This looked and felt the best. I have not been disappointed. No blisters, no shin splints. My legs feel fresh at the end of a run. I love them..

As soon as I was fitted with this shoe, I knew it was the right pair -- the Adrenline feels like a part of my own foot. Lightweight and cool, yet offers the protection for my knees that I need. .
