Is the Addiction Walker 2 good for flat feet?

Yes. It is Brooks' max-support walking shoe, with a stability system that positions the arch and limits overpronation. It suits flat and low arches best.

How does it compare with the Brooks Ghost?

The Ghost is a neutral, lighter cushioned shoe. The Addiction Walker 2 adds stability support, a leather upper and a slip-resistant sole, but weighs more.

Does it fit orthotics?

The deep, roomy interior and removable insole leave space for most custom orthotics. Wide widths add more room.

Is the sole slip resistant?

Yes. The rubber outsole is tested to the SATRA TM144 slip-resistance standard, which helps on wet or oily floors.

The midsole drop is 12 mm, higher than most running shoes, which some walkers find firm under the heel.

Is it good for standing all day?

Yes. The firm support and cushioned foam suit long shifts on hard floors, though the weight is noticeable by day's end.
