The Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25 Feels Like Walking On Pillows

As a professional shoe reviewer and serial walker, I’m picky when it comes to adding a new pair of sneakers to my rotation. My closet is already overflowing, and I want each pair to support my feet during my daily 10K step walks. While I have tried-and-true kicks that have been in my closet for years, there’s one style that has recently earned a permanent spot on my shoe rack: the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25. Not only are they sporty and cool, but they feel ultra-light and springy during every step I take. Long story short — you need to cop a pair ASAP.

I have cursed feet, and by that I mean I have two large bunions on each foot. So, wearing comfortable sneakers that don’t irritate my feet is a non-negotiable for me (IYKYK). Luckily, the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25 comes in wide and extra-wide widths to accommodate my foot woes. Better yet, Emily Ruane, managing editor of HuffPost Shopping, said her mother loves Brooks shoes for her wide feet post-bunion surgery. That was the green light that these are a safe bet.

I first took these for a spin during my morning matcha stroll. Immediately after my first steps, my feet experienced pure bliss. I felt the knit upper material stretch to match my foot shape as my soles lightly sank into the pillow-soft bed. The shoes moved with me as I speed walked, almost as if they were an extension of my feet. I ended up walking four miles, but the shoes left me excited for my next hot girl stomping session. It’s safe to say I’m now addicted.
