Thanks for the information and keen insight. This will surely help many in their buying decision.
A year or so ago a store was clearancing out the Fruit Loop Glycerin 20s for like $70. Being a dad in his 40s, I thought, WTF, I don't care if someone thinks these shoes look stupid. I hadn't owned Brooks (or any type of nice running shoe before) so I decided to try them at my local Academy. It was like walking on clouds, I couldn't believe it - especially in comparison to my normal Hey Dude no-support shoes.

I picked a pair up and absolutely love them. I have also received a number of compliments on them from a wide age range of people, including some girls in their 20s who struck up a conversation in the airport about them. It felt pretty good.
What are better real running shoes for similar prices?

Sauconys are pretty good, especially the Triumph and Ride lines. By the end of the day, It is all about comfort, mechanics, and foot shapes, etc.
Yeah shoes are tough and small things can matter a lot. I absolutely hate the Triumph line coming from Adrenaline (for running). I heard good things and got two pairs from DSW for $45 each, now collecting dust.

As far as I know, the Adrenaline has always been the stability version of the Ghost.
Thanks. Do they feel the same as the Ghost? Or stiffer?

The adrenaline is a support shoe. The Triumph is a super cushioning shoe for neutral runners.

Brooks shoes are lame.

Not a serious runner, (about 700 miles a year) and believe shoes are personal preference.

Have run in brooks Raveena, launch and Adrenaline, ASICS kayano and even Nike structure

I personally enjoy brooks the most. Kayano were way too cushioned for me and lasted the least distance. All brooks Nike have crossed 500 mile mark after I felt it starting to bother my running. Whereas, Kayano lasted about 350 miles.

No surface tears or cosmetic failures in any of the shoes, only sole wear due to running.


Some one gave a very good advice on the other adrenaline gts post - buy you first shoe from a local store where they check the running form and let u run in couple of shoes. Pay the premium for their service and then buys year close out models 👍🏼

I have always thought the adrenaline was basically the gts stability version of the glycerin but now they have a glycerin gts. I also noticed the adrenaline retails for less than the glycerin when it used to be more. Did they change the adrenaline to be a lesser shoe? Is it now like a stability version of the ghost?

I was also surprised to see the glycerin gts, but since adrenalin retails around 129 its more like the ghost. Glycerin start usually around 160

edit: just saw that the Ghost go for 140 original. which I find weird pricing for a neutral shoe, 20 bucks more is nothing, so all would go for Glycerin then?

Anyone have any thoughts on mizuno and brooks? I've been wearing mizuno for over a decade. Thinking about trying out brooks. Specifically the cushion max.

I would suggest a New Balance 1080v12. It's highly cushioned with a rocker geometry and has a comfortable upper. Some color ways are selling for half price at various online stores and even less at bricks and mortar locations.

That's my point. Many years ago I am positive adrenaline gts use to retail for same or slightly more than glycerin, around 160-170. I am talking maybe 6-8 years ago.

That commenter has no idea what he's talking about. They're 2 completely different shoes for different type of feet. I would know I've tried them both and I own many Ghosts generations. Personally I need the Ghosts for their heel support since I have Achilles Tendonitis and I don't have a big arch. The Adrenaline's main focus is arch support. My girlfriend uses Adrenalines. I liked how they looked on her so I bought some men versions to see if I can still manage to wear them. NOPE! They hurt my feet and triggered my Achilles tendonitis, not because they're bad shoes, in fact they're really good shoes, it's just that the Adrenalines are not for my type of feet. It's like comparing oranges to apples. You gotta stick to shoes designed for your feet.

I highly recommend you go to a Fleet Feet store if you have one nearby and have them scan your feet so you know what kind of shoes are for your feet. The scan is free and you don't have to buy anything. Then just remember your scan (I think they can even email it) and buy your shoes online at a discount somewhere.

How are the adrenalines, stiff or more cushioning?

Find the glycerin 20s uncomfortable, too soft/cushion

I wonder about the quality now. I bought a pair of addiction walkers (also have Adrenalines) and the rubber on the front of both is peeling off.

I managed to snag another pair of GTS levitate 5's for $60 with discount code Mile20 at Fit2Run instead of the $75 they wanted at Brooks. Worth shopping around to get the best prices. This will be my third pair of this particular model, but I know it fits my feet and stride well.

Thanks for calling this out, I was able to get another pair of Adrenaline GTS 22 for $72 (same price as last frontpage deal) from Fit2Run and they had several more colors than last deal.
