Brooks Womens Adrenaline GTS 24 Supportive Running Shoe (Style 9RM2)

Our review of the Brooks Womens Adrenaline GTS 24 finds it is a dependable stability shoe for women who want support without sacrificing cushioning. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of the Guiderails holistic support system with the newer nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 midsole, which delivers a plush yet responsive ride that helps keep excess motion in check over long runs. Reviewers consistently note improved comfort, arch support and smooth transitions compared with earlier versions.

Key Features

• Guiderails support: The Guiderails holistic support system keeps excess movement in check to protect the knees and support a stable stride.
• DNA Loft v3 cushioning: Nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 midsole foam provides soft, lightweight cushioning that adapts to each stride for long-distance comfort.
• Enhanced upper: Engineered air mesh upper balances breathability, stretch and structure for a comfortable, accommodating fit that moves with the foot.
• Smooth transitions: A redesigned outsole and midsole geometry promote smoother heel-to-toe transitions for a less jarring ride during tempo runs or daily mileage.
• Medical endorsements: Certified as a PDAC A5500 diabetic shoe and granted the APMA Seal of Acceptance, indicating suitability for sensitive feet and foot health concerns.

Who It's For

The Adrenaline GTS 24 is ideal for women who need reliable stability and cushioning for road running, daily training, or long walks. Runners with mild overpronation or flat feet who benefit from added arch and motion control will appreciate the Guiderails support and pronounced cushioning underfoot.

Shoppers who prefer a very narrow or fashion-forward racing fit may want to try these on first, as some customers report a snug or slightly narrow fit. Those seeking a minimalist, zero-drop racer should look elsewhere since this shoe emphasizes support and plush comfort over extreme lightness or minimal cushioning.
