Runner’s World Review
Award Winner: Editor’s Choice
The Adrenaline GTS has been a go-to shoe for nearly 20 years, and it just keeps getting better. Why? In a word, fit. It feels great going on and it feels great when you run. For this edition, Brooks removed the overlays from the forefoot and put stretchier material on the arch, but kept the softness and, more important, the stability that Adrenaline wearers expect—and love.
Runner’s World Wear Testers Say
“This is one of those shoes that feels good going on and continues to feel just as good when you’re running in it. It did a good job of supporting my foot without me feeling like I had a brick on. The fit and comfort was the best I have felt in a long time—and I have about 15 shoes in my normal rotation.” —Steve Kreft, 67, East Lansing

We put each shoe through real-world usage and a battery of mechanical tests in our lab to provide you with objective — and exclusive — data. In addition to a shoe's weight, we measure sole thickness (everything that sits between your foot and the road), how well the foam cushions your stride, and the flexibility of the forefoot. All this is taken into account in our reviews of each shoe.
