Brooks Women's PureGrit 2 Lightweight Trail Running Shoes Review

Customer Ratings:

I selected these shoes mostly for the outdoor trail. Using my Brooks Adrenaline as the season warms up, they are just too much shoe for me --and actually how built up they are made me roll my ankle a few times. These Pure Grit 2 are noticeably light and lower to the ground making it so ankle rolls went from about 2 per run to zero (running on uneven ground). I also could notice the wide forefoot with substantial grip--the tread pattern seems to be effective. In the beginning of my run I noticed some slipping in the heel but over the course of a few mile (mostly uphill) this wasn't bothering me and there was no break in period needed. I think the cushioning falls within my favorite spot--somewhere between minimal and average--making my foot strike natural yet not feeling every rock on the road. I tend to not enjoy runs over 5 miles so I cannot speak to distance runs. I have a wide flexible foot without actually needing wide shoes. Glad I got these. They remind me a bit of my brooks green silence (which are discontinued but I use at the gym)-

For a zero drop shoe, these have great cushioning and the traction is also great. HOWEVER they have are very tight across the top, and I so far have not been able to run more than 5 miles in them without extreme foot pain. Very disappointing. They are built well, so I can't see them getting looser with time.

Best Deals on Brooks Women's PureGrit 2 Lightweight Trail Running Shoes

I bought this shoe because I've always wanted a pair of Brooks running shoes. I went with the trail shoes because I run on trails around my house. When I first put the shoes on they felt like wearing super comfortable slippers. I've run in them maybe 6 times now with no issues! They are great, no blisters, smushed toes or any issues. I've run over wet rocks with no slipping. I have a bunion. The wide toe box is greatly appreciated, no more bunion pain! The shoes are expensive but well worth the money! Order a half size larger than normal. I usually wear 8s but got an 8.5 and they fit perfectly. The brooks website will tell you to order a half size larger.

Honest reviews on Brooks Women's PureGrit 2 Lightweight Trail Running Shoes

I love my Brooks. I always get compliments on them. Only problem is that the back comes up a little high for me so it easily blisters the back of my foot. But once you break them in, it feels better.

Best running shoes I have ever put on my feet. I will keep getting PureGrits for my trail runs! They work fine on road, but not recommended.
