Brooks Men's Beast '20 Running Shoe

Product Information

He can be found skipping through the streets of Orlando or lost in a trail that he studied two hours prior to the run.

Sure, you have others like the New Balance 1340 or the Saucony Redeemer, but there’s something about the Beast which has made it the go-to shoe it is. CHAD: While the shoe felt lighter on the run than I expected; eventually, the weight of the Beast GTS 23 caught up with me. Ideal for a runner on the heavier side looking for an everyday trainer that offers the most amount of support they can find. It somewhat pains me to admit this, but the Brooks Beast GTS 23 didn’t feel terrible on my first steps out the door. As if that weren't enough, these running shoes for men and women stand out for their DNA LOFT v3 midsole technology, with infused nitrogen that reacts to the unique characteristics of your stride.I have been wearing Beast for 20 years but the model 20 is not fit for purpose – virtually no support or stability. HPR Green rubber in the forefoot is made with environmentally-friendly materials and offers durable, skid-resistant traction in dry and wet conditions. I was visiting my parents from wales and needed a new pair trail shoes, I could see Sutton runner had very good .

These breathability holes are easily visible, but if you look closely, you'll see also a thin fabric layer underneath that stops the shoe from getting a perfect 5/5. GuideRails® Holistic Support System - GuideRails® support technology is significantly lighter than prior support technologies. The Beast 23 GTS wouldn’t have those coveted three letters at the end if it wasn’t for their GuideRails System. We tied those laces super tight, and we felt there was still zero chance of feeling any discomfort in the area. The plush midfoot transition zone is designed to propel your movements from heel to toe, especially for a neutral runner to maintain the most efficient gait possible for a smoother ride.The Beast GTS 23 are Brooksrunning shoes created to provide improved support for all those pronator runners, as well as a feeling of cushioning and comfort with every step. If you’re looking for maximum softness and enjoy features such as a plush feel under your feet and protection from impact, try shoes with the most cushioning. The hard plastic material at inside back heel is completely broken up and is now tearing apart my heels. So while the midsole feels substantial and stable under the foot, there’s a slight compression bias on the outer side. We’ve shifted our focus beyond the feet to the most injury-prone part of a runner’s body: the knees.

The Beast’s reputation as a god-tier stability shoe was built by versions 14 and earlier; those were examples of solid footwear engineering. I’m a long time stability show goer but based on things I’ve read (I supinate) I should be; but they feel so good! Well, each shoe reacts differently, but we often huge differences after leaving the shoe in freezing temperatures for 20 minutes.

The external clip around the heel creates a supportive cup and also happens to be reflective (along with the toe-bumper) for low-light visibility.

The first run I did in the Beast GTS 23 was a short little 3-mile recovery run, anticipating that it would be heavy underfoot and help me to keep my pace slow. A huge thank you to one of your staff - a young gent (I didn’t get his name) who helped me choose some new runners a . While you’ll miss the Beast of the old, the new midsole packs lots of support within a cushioned package. I have not done any extensive running on these shoes compared to the previous Brooks Beasts I’ve been wearing for the last 10+ years. Through the Run B’Cause program, they’re committed to supporting causes that inspire everyone to run and be more active, both in local communities and globally.It has a nice balance which is perfect for this shoe, especially since this model prioritize stability above all. It somewhat curves inward, so you can feel that wedge really digging in there, similar to how the first Nike React Infinity FK did. As we create new gear and run our global business, we also want to minimize our impact on the planet — so we are limiting our reliance on non-renewable resources by using more sustainable materials and reducing waste.
