"Paid WAY too much for these shoes. I bought them for comfort. Had a heck of a time getting fitted at the Running Room. Learned two things. Brooks shoes are for Gym Class only. Running Room is over priced. Will never buy Brooks shoes to run in, and will shop at a REAL running store for runners not a running store for the masses (had a gift card given to me so wanted to use it)."natepetemel
Ease of use
Okay until they break down
Quality of Construction
Visually very appealing. Structure and support breaks down quickly ie CRAP
Fit
Comfortable.
Comfort
Comfortable, until the support broke down. Trained from March 2011 to June 2011. End of June ran a half marathon in them. After the Marathon could not use these shoes. Even walking in them they aggravated my achilles tendon on my right foot.
Adjustability
Laces, eyelet choices good.
Durability
NO. NO. NO. I paid TOO Much for these shoes through the Running Room. I had a gift card so that helped but the price dropped on these within 4 months they were selling for $120. Saw them at a Brooks outlet for $80 and then just recently the outlet is selling them for $60 I WONDER WHY!!!!! (THEY ARE CRAPPY)
Value
For the money paid!!! TERRIBLE DON'T BUY BROOKS SHOES. They do not know how to make running shoes for runners. They make running shoes for Gym class only people!!!!
Appearance
Really Nice. Alot of thought went into the appearance. However not alot of thought went into lasting support.
Customer Service
Never tried it.
Performance
Got me through 4 months of running and one half Marathon.
Strengths
Good looking.
Weakness
Structure and Support.
