REVIEW- Brooks GTS 11

Since I have been a SLACKER on the giveaways... I thought I should change it up and use this page for Product Reviews.

As Runners shoes are the foundation for our training. Thankfully the folks at Brooks Running make an AMAZING and affordable product.

I was sent a pair of Adrenaline GTS 11's to TEST. Check them out Women HERE and Men HERE

What Brooks says:
The new Adrenaline GTS 11 brings together the shoe's revered fit and feel -- enhanced with a dynamic arch saddle and better conforming materials -- and the custom cushioning and dynamic responsiveness of industry-leading Brooks DNA technology. A match made in heaven is how we think of this noteworthy union.We’re not alone: Runner’s World awarded the Adrenaline GTS 11 "Best Update" in their Winter 2010 Shoe Guide in their December 2010 issue, on newsstands November 9.One of our wear testers said "I loved the addition of the DNA. They felt so much more cushioned and stable than the 10s. After putting the Adrenaline 10s back on because I wore the 11s out, I really prefer the 11s."

  • Tall Mom Thoughts:
I prefer a shoe that is light weight with some support and cushion. These shoes are my feather pillows. As a Northwest Runner I also need a shoe that will keep out the rain. I was worried when the shoe came with a mesh toe box, I thought I would be running in soggy sneakers...BUT to my delight this toe box allows my feet to breathe without letting the elements in.. SCORE!! I have been wearing these since October and am ready for a new pair :) Brooks hit a home run with these shoes, at just $100 you and your pocket book will be happy.
