Soft, supple full grain leather conforms to the foot for a supportive and breathable fit. HPR, a high-density carbon rubber, in the heel for increased traction and outsole durability.
Exclusive full-length S-257™ midsole decreases break by 15% while providing excellent energy return and cushioning on every stride.
Dual density midsole with a larger, harder wedge-shaped EVA component on the medial side designed to stabilize the foot and minimize excessive pronation. (VELCRO® is a registered trademark of VELCRO® Industries B.V.)

Brooks Addiction review

Reviewer: Sandy from Duck, NC
Shoe Size: Felt half size larger than marked
Shoe Width: Felt true to width
I overall liked the shoe. It felt a little roomy, but I needed some room for special orthotics. The feel of the shoe when on is totally flat, with little arch. And if you look at the shape of the shoe, that's how it is actually shaped. It also seemed a little short in height. I would have liked the heel to come up a bit more in the back. The tread is great. And I got the velcro straps vs laces, which I love. Probably won't ever go back to laces. It is comfortable but I'm not sure if I'd buy another pair.

These shoes were purchased to do walking and exercise since my stroke. The shoes were listed as WW and were no wider than a C. I did not send them back because I was going on vacation and needed them immediately. The left foot was very uncomfortable and I did very little walking. I wore stockings rather than cotton socks to help with space. I also had to take the tongue out for extra space.

I like the style of the shoe and I haven't returned them yet, but I believe that they are too wide and too big. I have walked around the house with them on the carpet just to see and I believe that they are too big.

Comfortable and manageable with arthitic hands

I never thought I'd be buying velcro shoes at the age of 60, but my arthritis in my hands and the need to wear supportive shoes more has made it happen. I have to say the shoes are comfortable, well-constructed, and relatively easy to put on. "Relatively" is because nothing is easy with my arthritis but they definitely are much better than tie shoes which KILL my hands.
