great shoe for husky pronators

I'm a beginning runner(again) with low arches. I had custom orthodotics until I accidentally threw them away in some old shoes. I ran/walked in a 4 mile race last month without orthodotics. I have not any injuries, such as shin splits or plantar fasciitis since I bought the shoes in Feb. '10.They a little stiff & heavy at first, but not now.

Can they BE any uglier?

Why is the best fitting shoe on the market so ugly and of low quality?

    Love these shoes. They are the third pair I have had of this model. And they're comfy and durable, and provide great support I am normally a size 8 but order 8.5 for these shoes andit seems to be a perfect fit.

      Comments about Addiction 9:

      I purchased these shoes because I'm training for a race and these were recommended for runners with moderate to severe overpronation. My overpronation is very severe, I have problems with bunions,and I have soft tissue damage in the 2nd-3rd metatarsal area from surgery a long time ago. I have a hard time finding shoes of any type that are comfortable. These shoes work out REALLY well for me. I noticed the difference immediately when I switched from my old running shoes. My feet don't hurt anymore after I run! The pronation control is better than most shoes, but for me it wasn't quite enough all by itself. I do still have to use an orthotic. I am really pleased with these shoes, and would definitely recommend them, particularly for people who have problem feet like me.

        I have worn these shoes for running actually jogging daily to keep fit and in shape. I had knee issues and used an orthodic before i discovered Brooks shoes for pronators. Using these shoes fixed my issues and i don't need the orthodics. THey are wonderful!!!!

        I over pronate and these shoes are the best shoes I have been able to find that gives me ample motion control and support. They are very comfortable on long runs and I do wish they looked cooler or cuter.

        An excellent choice for motion control

          Comments about Addiction 9:

          This is an excellent motion control shoe. It is not as "clunky" as some of the others I've used and the D width does not bother my bunions. The Addiction is also very durable. It seems like I'm able to get more mileage out of this model without compromising stability.

          The stability and support make it possible for me to do an hour on a treadmill or eliptical -- and to walk around all day -- without back, knee, ankle, or foot strain.

              good (but not great) support and cushioning; used for average intensity walking, but would probably be good for running, too; wish it came in a less 'busy' design, so I could wear it to work, since I'm on my feet all day
