The Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23 sits in the middle of the Brooks line-up, labelling itself as the perfect balance of support and softness. Even more exciting is that Brooks has updated their level of soft cushioning, which hasn't affected the level of support and protection underfoot, which is second to none, thanks to their DNA LOFT cushioning, a combination of EVA foam, rubber and air. Yes, even air gets credit as a key cushioning ingredient.
This plush and updated foam formula is nice and soft and sits just under the heel. The rest of the shoe is built with the GuideRails support system that guides the middle of the trainer - and laterally in the heel area too. Those who have run in the Adrenaline for years (like myself - I’m talking 8 years now!) will rarely divert from this model - it's consistent and comfortable.
