New Balance WR882

Brooks Adrenaline GTS 7

The Brooks Adrenaline GTS 7 is crafted for runners who over pronate while running. It provides a very firm arch support and lots of cushioning for comfort.

New Balance WR882

The New Balance WR882 is fit for neutral runners, and is built to last. It has a combination manmade leather and mesh upper to provide breathability and flexibility, with the comfort technology to help through running.

Design and Style

Many runners feel that these shoes are good looking.
These shoes are 'cute', but that could use a different range of colors. It is worth to note that although the shoes are wide and have a roomy toe box, they still look alright.

Durability

Many runners commented that the Brooks have good durability. The good durability is especially felt in the heel area and the shoes last for a relatively long time even when running on hard surfaces. For some runners, the shoes last for about 500 miles � which is quite a lot more than normal shoes should.
These shoes are as durable as most other running shoes. They are generally washable and do not lose shape or color when washed.

Low Cost

For most people, the Brooks Adrenaline seem like a very good bargain.
The New Balance WR882 shoes are among the cheapest you can get in the women running shoes category.

Support

Runners with pronating feet usually find these shoes to have very good support and that they help stabilize their feet. The shoes are considered supportive for high-arched pronating feet, but some runners will still need orthodics. If you do, you'll find that the insoles of the shoes are removable, and that makes insertion of orthodics very simple. Some health professionals recommend this shoe to their clients.
The New Balance WR882 have great support and cushioning around the ankle. Some runners feel that there is not enough arch support, and that while the shoes are good for runners who supinate (roll in) - the insoles are too flat.

Lightweight

The Brooks Adrenaline weigh 9.5oz (269g) � which is very lightweight.
At 9.5oz (272g), most runners find the shoes very lightweight.

Comfort

Many runners comment that the shoes are good for people with slight over-pronation. Most runners feel that the shoes are quite roomy in the toe box, so much that a few even complained that there is extra room there. They Brooks Adrenaline are usually a very good fit for runners with feet that are a little wider at the front. The shoes have very good cushioning and shock absorption, allowing users to run on very hard surfaces with no problems. A few runners commented that the shoes make them walk straight (which is a good thing). Many runners felt that the shoes are extremely comfortable from day one, without having to "break them in". They are also a good fit for runners with low arches and those who experience knee-knocking when they run.
Many runners comment that the NB WR882 have good cushioning and roomy toe-box. These shoes are widely considered excellent for walking and for jobs that require standing a lot. Some users wear these shoes for hiking activities as well as running. People with wide feet find that these shoes are exremely comfortable for both walking and running. and people usually report that the shoes are very sturdy and provide a lot of support and plenty of cushioning. The shoes are normally good for recurring feet problems, as they are very comfortable and supportive. The shoe is a good fit for feet that are wider in the front, and only a few runners commented that the shoes required extra cushioning insoles.

Awesome shoe!

(Score 5/5)

I have been wearing these shoes for 6 years now. Every year I buy the updated model of the same shoe. Once you find a running shoe that fits there is no reason to ever shop around again. Before spending the money though, I would suggest hitting a running store and having them evaluate your feet to tell you what type of shoe you need. A good fit is important to help you stay injury free. Once they find you a good fit you can just re-buy that same shoe for years to come. Initially it might be a bit more expensive as you will feel obligated to buy the shoe from the specialty running shop. But,for following purchases you can just hop online and buy the shoe from the cheapest vendor. This has been a great shoe for me!

Good overall running shoe

(Score 4/5)

I've tried many running shoes (I run marathons although would call myself an amateur runner), and by trial and error and advice of other runners found this shoe. Brooks Adrenaline is an all-around good shoe. Good support without being too tight through the toes. For long distance running I get 1 size larger than my regular shoes - I wear 6.5 and get 7.5 for running. I tie the laces all the way to the end to avoid my foot slipping forward and banging my toes. The GTS7 is an older model but got this for $30 less than the most recent model and honestly I haven't found they have changed much so it is a good value.

These are very comfortable, true-to-size, and nice looking. I have plantars facaitis and I can wear these shopping and get along fine.
The toes show wear pretty quickly, but I would buy them again.

Good Running Shoe

(Score 4/5)

Bought the shoes for the "SL-2 last" fit and this shoe gives that with a very roomy toe box while keeping a good heel fit. Feels good overall to run in. I ordered the shoe 1 size larger than my dress shoe size which made them roomy but not oversized. The shoes are very flexible. I researched my needs, chose this shoe, and then looked online for the best price, and found it through Amazon. My only con is that it could be a little more cushioned for the pounding that running gives. I am now thinking of adding a gel insert.
