    The perfect shoe for me!

    Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The trace 4 is very comfortable, stable and has plenty of room in the toe box. So much, in fact that I didn't need a 2E width. I liked them so much I bought an extra pair in both black and Navy. The padding is great. I'm a fast walker, but not a runner, and they suit me perfectly. I also like that they came in a simple navy/white and black/white.

    Too tight in toe box and side. Uncomfortable to wear. Got pain in both feet after taking few steps.

    Great walking shoes

    Perfect all-around shoe

    Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great all-around shoe for working out, running and walking. I like the extra room in the toe box, and the style is simple and clean. I'm getting additional pairs as back up.

I use these to walk and ride a bike and they are so much better than the Nike and pumas I have worn in the past and I really liked the pumas that I have been owned.

    They feel quite good, but I would prefer a slip-on form similar to Skechers.

    Perfect fit

    Thicker inner sole??

    Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

    I like the Trace 4. They are a good bargain....a comfortable walking show at a reasonable price. One improvement I would suggest: the sole needs more cushion. When walking in them, I can fell the tread of the sole on the bottom of my feet. More cushion is needed....or a thicker inner sole.

    Runs small, is darker than pictured, styling ok.

    Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

    Bought shoe in the same size as my last Brooks pair, but this shoe is at least a half size smaller. It’s also much darker than the photos showed. Had to return for too tight of a fit and didn’t reorder due to it being darker than pictured. I can’t comment on quality or stability as it was too tight to wear. Styling was decent.
