Brooks Women's Ravenna 3 Running Shoes Reviews

Customer Ratings:

These shoes changed my life! They are like running on air. A huge improvement from all of the shoes I had been wearing before (I had Saucony, Mizuno, Asics, etc.), and have helped me improve my stride. Additionally, the pain I used to have in my calves was gone after one 6 miler in these shoes. A+++

I spent 11 years wearing Saucony shoes for cross-training. The toe box was wider than in most other brands. However, I became so bored with the same styling year after year. Also, this year I had many problems with my ankles and tore the CFL behind my right foot, which was not only painful, but kept me off my feet and driving for an extended time. That caused me to restart my exercising and watching my diet in order to lose weight. But shoes were a problem. I purchased a pair of black dance shoes, which were great support for my exercising at home, but looked a bit strange walking aout outside, and they weren't meant for walking/running, anyway. On a recent vacation I finally tried alternatives to my Sauconys and, based on a suggestion, tried these wonderful Brooks shoes. WOW! What a difference!! They are so comfortable, have plenty of cushioning and support, and are extremely light. I never spent this much money on a pair of shoes before, but they are completely worth it. NOTE: While I take a size 8 in regular shoes, I was taking an 8.5 in Saucony, but went up to a size 9 in these (AND the dance shoes.) They are NOT too long, either. Just right. Now I have NO EXCUSE to delay my exercise program...YAY!

As someone who has struggled with getting the right fit of shoe most of my adult life, these were an awesome find. I'm in my later 20s, and for the last 15 years I've been dealing with bunions, wide foot width, and high instep (all inherited from my mother/grandmother). Because I've been focusing on finding wide widths, and they are so hard to find in person, almost all of my shoes came from online sellers. I struck out more than I struck gold.

I started running for exercise two months ago, staying mainly on a treadmill, and I found that the New Balance 606 shoes I had been wearing (they were my most comfortable shoe) were the worst thing ever to wear running. After seven days/seven running sessions, I strained the CFL ligament in the back of my heel and I could not run for more than two weeks. Walking was even painful. It was a lesson for meI need to take care of my feet!

I decided to go to a running store to try on shoes, and this was the first pair I was given to try. I was told I was an overpronator. What a nice feeling! After walking around the store with them on, and trying on others, I knew these were it. I got them home and started the treadmillwalking was wonderful so I tried running. Immediately I felt the cushioning in the shoe and the lightness of its weight.

In shortI have wide feet and these fit perfectly. The mesh forefoot area adjusts. The cushioning is great, very comfortable. I would definitely recommend these running shoes!

Honest reviews on Brooks Women's Ravenna 3 Running Shoes

I expected to spend a ton of money on new running shoes, especially since I have flat feet. I decided to order these because they were such a great price and figured if they didn't work out for running I could probably still wear them around casually. I fully expected to be disappointed and have to head out to the running store for some expensive shoes. I was wrong! These are great! They fit well and keep my feet cool and comfortable. Most of the pain I was experiencing in my knees is completely gone since I started wearing these shoes. I really think they have helped compensate for my overpronation and flat feet and made me able to run faster and longer.

These shoes are expensive, but worth every penny. I wear them all the time except when I'm in flip-flops. 12 hour shifts on concrete are no problem. No more foot or back pain. Planning to get every color.
