Advanced Performance Unleashed: Discover the Brooks Anthem 2 Review

Fits as expected but is less comfortable than previous Brooks running shoes. The sole is too hard and there is not enough space in the toe area.

Love Brooks for ankle and foot support. The material is not ideal for a busy active child or gardening. It can break easily.

I've worn them on the treadmill about 5 times and the sides of the shoe hole are starting to wear out. Disappointed in Brooks! I expect much higher quality from them.

I started running earlier this year and bought a pair of these Anthem 2s to try out. I love Brooks sneakers and especially the Anthem line. I hope they don't change their feel with the next iteration because these are my favorite shoes.

I have a pair of Brook Revels that I love. I've seen them and since they were a bit cheaper I figured they would work fine. I've never had a pair of 10.5s from any brand hurt like this. . I left them on for about 5 seconds before admitting they needed to be returned. The laces on the bottom are so tight they blocked blood flow and it wasn't the laces it was the fabric. Pay extra for Revel. I'm going back to get her now.

If you haven't tried the Brooks brand yet, we will. I make my living delivering water and work 12 hours a day. As for durability and comfort, I only trust Brooks. I know that Anthem 2 is just one of the entry-level models for Brooks. But it's definitely comfortable and true to size. I usually use treadmills for less than 6 months, after which the sole becomes unusable. I've used several brands and got tired of them and Brooks breath lasted well over a year after which I bought another pair…
