Brooks Addiction 8 Running Shoe

A Brooks walking shoe with a runner’s label. Cravings for the Addiction™ 8 are sure to arise, thanks to the soft yet long-lasting cushioning of MoGo. Third-party testing showed that in comparison with Substance 257, MoGo offers a 40% increase in cushioning, 22% more energy return, and 33% less fatigue.

The shoe’s wide Linear Platform® provides sturdy support mile after mile. By supporting low arches and keeping pronation under control, it qualifies as a healthy habit.

The full-length MoGo midsole delivers exceptional cushioning and stability, while a combination synthetic/mesh upper ensures lightweight breathability and outstanding support. The outsole features HPR™ Plus technology for high durability and abrasion resistance.

Great for the knees and feet!, July 26, 2008
By Carol W. Slavens “Carol, dog lover” (Ohio)

Having recently had my knee scoped and seeing a physical therapist, I was referred to a store that fits supportive shoes to your particular walking/running style. This shoe was recommended to me (pronator) and I am very impressed. I usually wear an 8-8 1/2 shoe, 9 -9 1/2 in running shoes, but this one was fitted to me in a 10 D! (They do run small.) I can wear any sock with it and even have orthotics placed in them. Very supportive and very comfortable. My therapist was very impressed with the last they had and even took them around to show them to the other therapists. A great shoe that I will definitely buy again.

Great Shoe…no more pain, November 19, 2008
By JenShopsHere (Kentucky USA)

I went to a runners store to buy shoes because I was experiencing pain with a bunion while trying to exercise. I do not run. I first tried a New Balance shoe that I returned because my foot just moved around in it too much (I tried several inserts and a variety of lacing techniques.) I gave up and tried this shoe after reading reviews of Addition 7. Well…Problem solved…what a comfortable shoe. They have even washed very nicely. The mesh keeps my feet cool and I am able to tie the shoe to hold my heels and arches in place while leaving my toes and the balls of my feet free in the shoe.
