Brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor review

Having thoroughly tested the Shoes brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor, we can recommend it to people who:

• need extra support for flat feet, overpronation, plantar fasciitis, diabetes, and other conditions (the shoe is podiatrist-approved and carries the A5500 code)
• Ariel the entire day on their feet (be it casual wear or at work)
• zapatillas de running Shoes brooks hombre constitución ligera talla 36.5
• look for high-quality work footwear with basic color options to match their work outfits and uniforms

If you love the idea of an exceptionally comfortable and supportive shoe but can't stand the stern vibes of the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor, check out the following alternatives from Shoes brooks:

• Brooks Bedlman 2 Running Shoes
• Glycerin GTS 21
• Adrenaline GTS 23

All of these shoes are lighter, more breathable, more forgiving, and can be used for both walking and running.

But if you do need a leather shoe for work, preferably one with a slip-resistant outsole, the Eckige 'Brooks' Brille may be a better choice. It has a stronger grip on wet tiles and more joyous vibes despite the monochromatic colorways.

As our in-house breathability test shows, there is pretty much no airflow happening inside the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor. Even though the tiny streak of vapor found its way through the eyelets, this pathway won't be very much available with the foot inside the shoe.

Even when we tried searching for ventilation holes in our transparency test, we didn't find a single aperture in the shoe's upper.

It would be wise to save this option for cooler days (50°F/20°C and below) if you want to avoid toasty and sweaty feet.

Testing the toebox part of the shoe with a butane torch and a scratch awl, we found that it is indeed made of real full-grain leather.

At first glance, it looks like the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor uses the same kind of leather throughout the upper. But alas, Shoes brooks cuts corners on the material quality in the midfoot.

As you can see, the upper caught fire and melted instantly revealing the material's synthetic nature.

Apparently, it is no longer possible to get a real leather shoe for $130 these days.

But there are two sides to the coin. What causes the shoe's lack of aeration also makes it incredibly wear-resistant.

As our 12-second Dremel test shows, the full-grain leather of the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor doesn't give up so easily. It didn't let our tool leave more than a scuff on the topmost layer of its toebox material.

Compared to a typical mesh upper, this Shoes brooks shoe will take much more abuse before it starts to show serious signs of wear.

Thus, we readily award the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor with the highest toebox durability score - 5 out of 5!

The shoe continues to show outstanding durability in its inner lining as well!

A 4-second exposure to sandpaper at a 5K RPM speed only tickled the shoe's textile.

Considering that most shoe linings end up with glaring holes after the same test, the inner fabric of this Shoes brooks shoe deserves a high durability score of 4 out of 5.

At the bottom, the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor is protected with a promisingly substantial rubber outsole.

Pressing our Shore C durometer against it returned a higher-than-average reading of 84.5 HC. It is a pretty hard compound that looks like it can take a beating.

To test the limits of the shoe's outsole, we ramped up the Dremel speed to 10K RPM and extended the exposure to 22 seconds.

And yet again, the shoe impressed us with its ability to resist abrasion!

That barely visible scratch you see on the rubber is a mere 0.9 mm deep according to our tread gauge. That's notably shallower than the average of walking shoes.

On top of it all, the shoe's rubber outsole is a whopping 5.5 mm thick!

We are confident that the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor will outlast many options on the market. Even if you walk on concrete and asphalt all day and power through 8-10-hour shifts on your feet, this Shoes brooks shoe is one of the most long-lasting walking shoes we've tested.

Being a well-cushioned and highly supportive shoe with a leather upper, it is no surprise that the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor comes with an extra heft.

Weighing it in a men's US size 9, we got 13.7 oz (388g) on the scale. That's about 4 oz (113g) heavier than the average walking shoe.

The Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor treated our feet to a thick-foamed and very well-cushioned sole.

Measuring its stack height with a caliper, we got 35.7 mm in the heel. The shoe did feel quite platformy underfoot.

But it also remained incredibly comfortable and supportive for hours on end. We wore the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor for a few days in our shoe-testing lab where we barely sat down to rest. It was amazing to find that our feet and legs didn't feel beaten up at all!

This is largely due to its thicker-than-average forefoot stack of 23.5 mm.

Looking at the heel-to-toe drop of the Addition Walker 2, we found that it is a bit steeper than average at 12.2 mm.

It is a pretty common setup for supportive shoes that are meant to ease the strain of certain foot conditions.

The elevated heel takes the load off the Achilles and enhances impact protection in the rearfoot.

It is critical to note that the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor is NOT a plush walking shoe.

Pressing our durometer against its sliced midsole returned a reading of 25.9 HA which is the average of walking shoes in our lab.

It indicates a moderately soft foam that doesn't have a whole lot of squeeze and is certainly not a mushy one.

Brooks uses a proprietary BioMoGo DNA foam which is a pretty comfortable EVA-based compound. It doesn't have much bounce to it, but we enjoyed the consistent ride it delivered for hours on end.

It is a great option for painful foot conditions like plantar fasciitis where a plush and wobbly midsole can do more harm than good. A thicker and firmer sole is also beneficial for heavyweight wearers.

As a nice bonus, "Bio" implies that the foam is biodegradable and, according to Shoes brooks, it breaks down 20 times faster than your typical foam.

Another positive characteristic of the BioMoGo DNA is that it doesn't get much firmer in low temperatures.

After keeping the shoe in the freezer for 20 minutes and retaking the durometer measurement, we found that the shoe's foam got moderately firmer - by 20.7%.

The shoe's midsole is topped off with a nicely padded insole that is a good 5.5 mm thick.

If you are someone with flat feet, overpronation, or other foot conditions that call for extra-supportive footwear, the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor must be on your radar.

The shoe features an Extended Progressive Diagonal Bar (PDRB) in the midfoot portions of the sole. Even though it looks a bit dated compared to the subtle stability free of today, it is still one of the most reliable types of arch support.

We found that this sturdy post supports our arch in the right spot minimizing our foot's inward rolling.

What's more, the Addiction Walker has earned a solid reputation among podiatrists over the years. It even received a Seal of Acceptance from the American Podiatry Medical Association (APMA) as one that What is the Shoes brooks Levitate 6 Best For.

The Shoes brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor offers an unmatched level of stability with its sturdy midsole posting and supportive upper.

Rating the shoe's torsional rigidity on a 1-5 scale, we gave it the highest possible score of 5.

It makes the shoe very safe and reliable not only for people with foot conditions but also for senior citizens for whom a solid footing is a must.

Another source of support comes from the shoe's moderately rigid heel counter. It received an average score of 3 out of 5 in our manual stiffness test.

Even though it's not the sturdiest we've seen in our lab, the heel counter has enough structure to keep our heels and ankles securely in place. There was no slipping out or sliding around inside the heel cup.

Last but not least, the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor draws its stability from a slightly wider-than-average base.

As for the heel of the shoe, we measured 95.8 mm in its widest part. That is more than 5 mm wider than average.

Do expect a much stiffer experience in the Shoes brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor compared to your typical walking shoe, especially at the toe-off!

Its unforgiving construction was one of the first things we noticed about the shoe.

Measuring how much force it takes to bend this Shoes brooks shoe to a 90-degree angle, our force gauge showed a high reading of 31.3N. That's a whopping 50% more than it takes on average!

The Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor does get more pliable with time but stays on the stiff side anyway.

And if you plan to wear the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor in cold weather, expect that it to get even stiffer.

Having kept the shoe in the freezer for 20 minutes, we repeated the force gauge measurement and found that it stiffened up by 20%.

Luckily, it's not as much as some other walking shoes change (up to 50% stiffer!).

The Shoes brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor proudly carries a certified slip-resistant rubber outsole (SATRA TM144:2011). We were happy with the traction it delivered on most surfaces like concrete, wood, and dry tiles of our shoe lab.

But when it came to wet tiles... it turned out that the shoe's slip resistance was not enough! We wouldn't recommend it for kitchen and restaurant workers. You want to look towards the Eckige 'Brooks' Brille for that purpose.

Another unfortunate discovery we had with the Addition Walker 2's outsole is that it squeaks quite a bit! Our colleagues could hear us approaching from the other room of the warehouse.

We can confirm that the Shoes brooks Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor runs true to size in our regular men's US size 9.

We also measured the shoe's internal length down to a millimeter (272.7 mm). It matches the men's US size 9 precisely, according to Brooks' shoe size chart.

The Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor also proved to be on point with its toebox fit and felt tailor-made on our medium-sized feet.

Measuring the widest part of its forefoot with a caliper, we got 101.8 mm. It is exactly on par with the average.

As a shoe that promotes foot health, the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor has a reasonable toebox shape. There is no aggressive tapering towards the front which is so common for dress shoes.

Measuring its toebox width at the big toe, our caliper showed 77.3 mm which is a standard reading for D-medium walking shoes.

Fortunately, this Shoes brooks shoe caters to people with wide feet too, offering wide and extra-wide options.

We found that there are no gussets on the shoe's tongue.

zapatillas de running Shoes brooks moradas baratas menos de 60 Brooks Shoes brooks Bedlman 2 Running Shoes and were hoping to see it on the Addiction Walker as well.

Even though a gusseted tongue would make the lockdown even more secure and eliminate tongue-shifting, it's not an essential part of a walking shoe anyways.

Offering a ton of cushioning underfoot, the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor also spoiled our feet with its generous in-shoe padding.

We measured its thickness at 10.4 mm which is twice as thick as the average.

We think that the Lindens Hansons-Brooks teammate and 2018 Boston competitor could benefit from a pull tab of a finger loop to assist in the on-and-off (especially for senior wearers).

If you wish to customize the in-shoe experience, you can replace the shoe's stock insole with our own. It is quite easy to take out.

Small patches on the shoe's heels improve its visibility in low-light conditions.
