I was worried when these arrived because they were pretty stiff, but after about a week of wearing them, they broke in very nicely and are awesome! They look great with casual outfits and are fairly comfortable. I do have somewhat wide feet and after several hours of wearing, my dogs are barking, but that's nothing new.

Have disappointing durability
Reviewer Isabel Borsoi
My husband loves these shoes and has been wearing a pair for about 2 years. He pronates pretty badly and the old shoes needed replacing because they were losing stability. We ordered this pair knowing he wanted the exact same shoes. They are perfect, with "new shoe" support for his ankles. He loves this shoe because due to Parkinson's he has difficulty tying shoes and wants to be able to step into his shoes. These look and feel like lace-up shoes. He wears them to walk for exercise, but he also wears them to go out running errands etc.

Perfect for your day to day activity
Reviewer Captain Keyboard
ordered a half size down as with most superstars and it fits fine. you can't remove the character from the shell toe, its fused on there. my only complaint is that the rubber feels strange, like its falling apart. after taking the shoes out of the box, my shirt was covered with white eraser shaving like pieces. after rubbing the midsole, my fingers got sticky and more of that stuff came off. i ended up scrubbing with reshoevn8er and the eraser shaving problem is gone, but it still has a little tack when touching it. the rest of the shoe is fine.

Very happy with the product now that I have replaced the insole with one that adds to the arch support. the insole has also improved the fit which was a little loose. Easy shoe to wear.. comfortable and light weight. I did reverse the shoe lace coming through the top eye .. comes in from below the eye instead of going through the eye from the top of the eye. Not sure how that might have impacted the fit but it does make it easier to get in and out of the shoe. For me .. being able to remove the insole and replace it with one providing more arch support and cushioning has made a big difference.
NEW DEVELOPMENT .. after less than two months of not very frequent use the thin dark grey outer sole(that part that hits the ground) has worn off. Did not realize that the surface that hits the ground was so thin and quick to disappear. This new development has changed my evaluation of these shoes. So .. shoe fits, feels good and looks nice but disappoints when it comes to being worth the money.

KINDA BIG BUT COMFY AS HELL
Reviewer Lynne Lattimer
This is the Brooks Beast. It's awesome for people with flat feet and a pronation. It fit as I expected, but for the last couple of years, they have been running a little small. I used to wear a size 12, but I've needed a 12.5 from this shoe since 2013 or so. I still wear a 12 in other brands. I've been told, but running shoe specialists, that this is the only shoe in its class. He said that the only other shoe that came close was recently removed from the market...

I ordered these shoes for my new job and I find myself wearing them more often than I expected. I normally wear a size 10.5... so I ordered my usual size and I am very happy that I did. They fit very well. I chose these for work since my wife said they are the perfect "look" for casual office attier. Not too fancy, but dressy enough to still look classy. Even with jeans. I wear them for entire shifts without my feet complaining too. And I often run around all day long and often try to take the stairs. I think they look great and would certainly buy another pair from this brand.
