Brooks Women's Ariel '20 Running Shoe

These are great for walking. I’ve had Junior surgery on both feet and these are very comfortable and supportive shoes. They are easy to add your own custom orthotics.

Started wearing Brooks Ariel 16 when recovering from plantar fasciitis, they were very good. Bought a pair of Ariel 18... the worst. Big and clunky, hot, etc... gave my pair away. Decided to take a risk on new Ariel 20, so much better. My favorite so far. Lighter yet very stable and supportive. Bought the gray for summer, plan to buy the black in the fall. Wish there were more colors.

I was told to buy these by my Podiatrist for my plantar fasciitis. I found that the glycerin model had better cushion than these Ariel’s. It’s a wider fit than other brooks models in my opinion. Overall this is a good shoe and served its purpose.Being I was wearing these to work in an office I looked for the most plain, neutral colors.I’m not a fan of the oyster grey color they use in all their styles. I wish brands like this, that are recommended for orthopedic purposes, would make more all white or all black shoes.

Love love these sneakers, I’m a CNA on my feet for hours each shift, my feet, legs and back do not hurt at all. I have had 5 pairs of these, I do go through them pretty quickly but when you do miles and miles each day you will wear them out. Expensive BUT well worth the $$

I have worn nothing but these for the last eight years, replacing them every six months. Because of them, I am still able to walk. I wish I'd started wearing these years earlier!

These are wonderful for flat feet!

I have been wearing the Brooks Ariel for years now. I love this shoe, I started wearing it when I had planter facitis. My Brooks Ariel 18 finally got a hole in the mesh in the toe, and I couldn't find my size anywhere to buy another pair. I tried the Brooks Ariel 20 thinking it would be the same shoe, same fit. I was disappointed to find that the 20 is not the same as the 18. My size did not fit and it was too narrow and not as wide. It just did not feel like the same shoe. So I had to return them.

I wore ariel 18 for years then brooks quit making them so i ordered the ariel 20 do not like them at all. Ordered size 8 but they fit like 7.5 thought they would stretch but didnt so i can't send them back.The back of the shoe does not fit right either.Brooks bring back Ariel 18 please........
