Brooks Women's PureConnect 2 Lightweight Running Shoes, Color: Anthrcte/KnckoutPnk/GrnGecko, Size: 8.5

Had bought a pair at a store. Needed to buy a size larger than I usually wear. Glad I tried the shoes on at a store or I would have ordered the wrong size. Shoes felt great, wore them home.Ordered this pair from Amazon, Better price at Amazon. Wish they were water proof. Few seams, heat sealed in toe area, which is nice, nothing to rub against your toes.

I've ran, walked in these shoes. Very comfy and light, nice cushion and arch support. I like the design and it fits my feet just perfectly. My European size is 39, and I bought the 8.5 US size for these shoes. I haven't even touched the shoe laces yet, its still exactly the way when I took them out from the box, because I don't need to, it really fits great!The only downside might be the arch support. I'm not used to so much support for my feet, and it can cause me somewhat hurt in the arch of my feet sometimes. But other than that, great shoes for running.

I have been running for over 20 years and thought I was going to have to give up running as I developed a serious heel pain after 2 months running with these shoes. I was forced one day to use my old running shoes and the heel pain went away. After further experimentation, these shoes were definitely the cause. Maybe these are for young runners, but they were certainly not for me! Based on the reviews, I bought a half size bigger and the fit was good.

I wore an 8.5 in PureConnect 1 and I had to get a 9 in the PureConnect 2. I believe it's due to the new design of the tongue and toe. Still love my size 9! Great shoe for running!

No! Completely awful. I wear an 8 I ordered an 8.5 and they are about a full size too small. These are just too much shoe. Too constructed, narrow, no toe room. I'm a big fan of the pure drift shoe which is hard to find in my size and this is no substitute. If you're looking for a minimalist Shoe keep looking. Way too much arch, too much cushion absolutely no feel or toe splay. I'm sending them back.

i didnt like how the front of the sneaker turns up..looks like my foot is leaning all the time

My wife bought these at a Sports Authority and loved the way the shoe fit, and how it performed on her jogs. Once those shoes started to wear, we looked at Amazon's selection and saw the same exact shoes. Since she knew how they fit, we decided to buy them, since they were much cheaper than a sporting goods store. Shoes are great and she loves them.

I don't run often, so I've never made it a priority to find good athletic shoes, so every time I put on whatever awful pair I have, my feet end up hurting. My mom, who is very active, recommended these to me, so I got them, and was surprised at how comfortable they are. Great support, but not too much. Allow for a very natural gait.
