We share the Adrenaline GTS love by bringing its supreme fit and feel to neutral runners. The Defyance 6 is packing anatomical Brooks DNA, an adjustable eye row for a fit that couldn't get closer, and a Caterpillar Crash Pad that isolates each moment of the laydown for a smooth transition. The 6 also gets lighter upper materials for improved breathability and a wrap-the-foot fit. Now neutral runners can stop feeling so jealous.

      Comments about Defyance 6:

      I run track in high school. I put in 4-7 miles a day. I had the Defyance 5 and those were great! They changed the sole of the shoe to a softer type of rubber. I have had the shoe two months and the sole is already worn down completely. There is no traction at all!!! They still did the job but I wish they could have lasted me through the summer (I am doing a half marathon at the end of it).

      Comments about Defyance 6:

      I went through three pairs of the Defyance 4, so naturally this shoe was at the top of my list. Tried them at the local running store and was not impressed. I don't know what Brooks changed, bit the fit and comfort on the 6 is no where near as good as the 4. I bought Saucony instead.

        I replaced a beat up pair of Asics Cumulus 13, which I can't get anymore with these Brooks. I really like them they are such a great replacement for my Asics.
        These really fill the bill for me, they have a solid sole with with being stiff and rigid. They are very comfortable and have the right cushioning for me. They have the right arch too. The toe box is just right not too big or too narrow. I just took my dog on a long walk and my feet are so happy. Thanks, Brooks.

          I walk/jog with these and am very satisfied. I'll probably stick with this one although I like the looks of several other shoes.

          Great shoes; I love them. But too bad they do not make the wide version The 2E width size was so comfortable for many.
