Brooks

Divide 5 Trail Running Shoe - Women's

I usually love all my Brooks sneakers but these are the worst I’ve bought. Shotty material, hurts my pinky toes. I always wear the same size/width but these are very uncomfortable.

Narrow hurts my pinky toes, rubs the side of my pinky toes

Durable and comfortable for technical terrain

WOW I am impressed with this bad boy. I just ran ManHump and these shoes kept my feet comfortable for 13 hours. ALSO -- I didn't have to relace them ONCE. The laces stayed -- no slipping! I was running up and down single track mountain trails with plenty of roots, rocks, and rockface, and folks these shoes let me run DOWN the rockface without fearing I would fall on MY face. I wear a size 11 and have weird narrow, bony feet that often slip around in trail shoes, but NOT THESE! Plenty of space in the toe box for stability, but narrow enough in the mid foot and heel that my feet stay in place. After many mountain miles, I have ZERO blisters and the shoes have ZERO holes. Love it.

Look good. Feel great. Love wearing all day.

Excellent fit, lightweight and extremely comfortable. I work in a primary school and chose the Divide5 to be my new sports shoes. I couldn't be happier! Great on the oval, running up stairs, in the classroom, cross country training, and then grocery grab at the supermarket on the way home! The Divide5 are a treat on my feet! They look amazing, great value and excellent Brooks quality. Highly recommend.

I do not run but they feel great on my feet for all around every day use!!

Comfy and stable

I wanted some running shoes suitable for gravelled and uneven paths, I’ve been using my road shoes but felt there wasn’t enough stability. I tried my new Divide 5s yesterday for the first time and was delighted with them - great cushioning and they felt really stable due to the sole being a bit wider than the road shoes. I also felt like I could keep on running in them, which is really unusual as I’ve normally had enough at the end of the loop! All in all, I’m delighted with them 😊

I absolutely love these shoes. They are lightweight, flexible, and can go the distance. They are wide enough, but I like to size up a half size for trail running so on the downhill they have wiggle room. I am normally an 8 and sized up to 8.5 for the sake of trail running. They are breathable, and have great arch support. I find I don’t pronate as much as I usually do in other shoes. Great traction too!

Surprisingly durable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression when opening the box was I loved the color combination and they looked hearty so I was worried about the weight of them. To my surprise, they are SO lightweight while still being supportive. Lately I've been wearing them when walking, running, lifting in our garage and keeping up with the kids. I'm surprised at how durable they are despite being super light. My feet are recovering from cracked heels from living in sandals, so this has been extremely healing for them to wear these sneakers instead. Also, my kids are into a lot of water play right now and the sneakers are super breathable giving them the ability to get wet, but dry-out quickly.... a totally bonus for my lifestyle!

Perfect trail/road shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoy these shoes! This is my first pair of trail runners and I appreciate that they have all the support and reinforcement I was looking for while still being responsive and breathable. Some trail shoes that I tried felt more like cleats than joggers, and I wanted a shoe that could flex into whatever I happened to be doing that day. These were the perfect middle ground. I even wore them to a HIIT class and they felt pretty good, and definitely gave me some extra traction for sled pushes.

Awesome Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have trouble finding shoes that fit me so I am glad I came across these Brooks to continue purchasing them as a workout, running, and casual shoe. I am not normally one to wear running shoes out and about as I am running errands or at work. However, these were so comfortable and cute enough to wear with more casual outfits. The fit and feel were perfect for me. They seemed to fit just right. I have a smaller foot, so I'm not certain that I am the best judge. The feel of the shoe is super cushioned and comfy. I feel like my foot is very supported all around and I have yet to experience and pain even when walking long distances around town. Overall, I think these shoes have a great design with durable fabric and are extra comfortable and supportive. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a running or workout shoe.
