When you find yourself questioning if any shoe will fit your super flat and extremely overpronating feet so that the pain goes away, look this way and find the answer you seek…salvation is the Beast.
Moisture-Managing upper is constructed with Element technology which protects you from weather conditions via its superior microfiber construction while offering a lightweight and breathable feel that is both comfortable and durable.
Air mesh upper is enhanced with synthetic overlay materials and an internal support saddle.

Full-length innovative MoGo midsole compound provides a soft yet stable cushy feel that offers increased cushioning and energy return.
Extended Progressive Diagonal Rollbar (PDRB) presents a robust, dual density post at the medial arch allowing for progressive pronation control.
e-1 midsole/outsole compound is strategically placed in the rear of the midsole to further dampen contact phase impact forces.
e-2 midsole/outsole compound is strategically placed in the forefoot of the midsole, beneath the metatarsals, to provide a more explosive toe-off.
DRB Accel is a shank-like thermoplastic device that enhances tunable torsion of the midfoot while providing added support.
Full-length durable S-257 Cushsole offers a flexible cushioned ride while saving you energy.
Engineered MC Pod Configuration enables the midsole and outsole to set the foot up in an efficient and balanced position offering maximum motion control and flexibility from heel strike through toe-off.

| If you're looking for a solid running shoe which gives enough padding, but isn't too tight around the toes or for those with a wide foot, this might be the right shoe for you. I have a size 15 foot, and generally find it tough to find running shoes which I really like, both in terms of style and function. I took a chance on these shoes, having never purchased Brooks sneakers before, and being somewhat skeptical after reading only a smattering of reviews. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I've worn these for around 9 months now in a variety of settings, even using them on a 2-day mountain hike on one weekend. Mostly, though, I use them 3-4 times a week as my running shoes. And they perform admirably. They are starting to wear down somewhat in the outside balls of the sole and on the inside fabric of the heel, but the heel part is largely because of the way I run and because of the way these shoes seem to slide up and down just a little more than many others I've purchased in the past. And yes, they are the right size. It's just the way they seem to be designed. And they are definitely useful for someone who is an over-pronator. So, in summary, I was very pleased with this purchase, even if they were a little more expensive than some of the other shoes I was looking at at the time of purchase. I will definitely make my next set of running shoes something in the same product line as this pair. I was pleased with the quality of the product, and think that they were a solid purchase. Oh! And they were/are incredibly comfortable to wear. Great padding and design. Definitely worth mentioning. | |

| Narrow foot, extreme pronation, wonderful comfort - The title says it. I have a hard foot to fit; it's very narrow, and my pronation is so extreme I leave oval footprints around a pool. I've been wearing Brooks shoes for a few years now, and this latest incarnation of the Beast is the best yet. I walk a mile and a half uphill to the coffee shop every morning with a 12-15 pound backpack, and the Brooks shoes get me there without sore knees or hips, and with only moderately aching feet (moderately is as good as I've been able to get since I was about 12, and I'm over 70 now). I recommend them highly. Get a half size larger than you usually wear, and you'll probably have a perfect fit. | |

| My husband is running in these shoes!!!! These shoes are well worth the price. My husband hasn't been able to walk without back pain for almost a year. The first day of wearing these shoes and he felt so great he ran 1/2 a mile! He severely over-pronates, has flat feet, and weighs 230+. His normal shoe size is a 13.5 and a 14 fit perfectly. He normally doesn't need a wide shoe, but he needed a 14 wide in these to have enough room in the toe box. The black/silver looks pretty cool, too! I thought they'd be dorky from the pics, but they look better in person. | |

| Flat feet as happy as flat feet can be - These shoes cost a little more, but podiatrists and crutches and physical therapy cost even more. As a flat-footed person who needs good support in a shoe, these have served me well and have allowed me to actively walk and even run without the pain and medical expense. There is adequate room (upon removing the built-in insole) for a custom prescription orthotic. I've gotten a new pair of these shoes about every five or six months for the past three years and my flat feet are about as happy as flat feet can possibly be. | |

| Excellent shoe - I'm a big guy and wear these all day, every day. I have gone through several pairs, but each one was worth it. I have custom orthotics, but cannot fit them in over the liner that comes with the shoe. I remove the liner and put the orthotics in. However, recently I have gone back to wearing the shoe with just the original liner because of the comfort and softness. If my feet bother me, I throw the orthotics in for a few days and then go back to the brooks liner because it is so comfortable. | |

| Finally... I found it!!! I am 400 lb., an over-pronator, and I like to play racquetball. You can only imagine how taxing that is on shoes. I never found a shoe that could take those stresses until the Beast. And it is the first shoe that my outer toes are not crammed, worn raw, or even sometimes bleeding. The shoe easily compensates for my over-pronation. The wear has surpassed all my previous shoes. I can't believe I have finally found the perfect shoe for me!!! | |

| We've come back for this shoe three times in the past two years. My husband has severe over pronation, nearly walking on his ankle. This is the very best shoe we have found to date. He is comfortable right out of the box! He uses his custom orthotics in them and they fit just fine. We reviewed many brands and styles before we bought this shoe, and will probably be ordering it again in 8 months or so. | |

| BROOKS Beast is extremely comfortable and nice looking. The combination mesh and synthetic upper makes this a very durable running shoe. The excellent cushioning and arch support provides flexibility and comfort. The fact that this shoe helps with pronation problems is a definite plus. I never realized how good Brooks was until I tried these runners. I am starting to feel that the other brands are somewhat overrated. The Beast is practically the perfect shoe. Highly recommended! | |

| Great fit - I have been buying mt shoes from Zappos for years and I have never been more impressed with the fit and comfort of this pair of shoes. I have a very wide foot (4E) and at one point bought a 5E. These shoes were so comfortable I bought another pair in a different color scheme. Actually a customer review helped me decide to buy this shoe. Thanks Zappos. | |

| Good Quality Shoe for the Money - I buy these shoes for my son who works in the pizza industry and is on his feet for 12 hours a day- when these shoes are new, they are great but they break down in about 1 month-- but he is a big guy- I think they are a good buy for the money. | |
