Is the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25 worth it?
Yes — if you want gentle support.
Guide rails at the heel keep your foot in line without feeling like a stiff support shoe, and it's very stable and well cushioned. The outsole is very hard-wearing. It isn't bouncy, at about 295 g it isn't light, and testers were split on how it feels on longer runs.
