About this product
The Brooks Beast 18 is a men's athletic shoe in size 12.5, featuring a gray and black color scheme and a wide (2E) fit. Designed as a crosstrainer, it's suitable for both running and hiking, with a lace-up closure and a low-top shaft. The synthetic upper and rubber outsole provide comfort and traction, with features specifically addressing overpronation. This model is made for activewear and casual occasions across spring, summer, and fall seasons.
Our take
As a stability shoe, the Brooks Beast 18 is an excellent choice for men who require significant support, especially for overpronation. The wide (2E) fit is a huge benefit for those who need extra room, and the combination of gray and black is versatile. While it's marketed as a 'crosstrainer running hiking shoe,' it truly shines as a running shoe, particularly for road and light trail running. The low-top design means it won't offer ankle support for serious hiking, but for comfortable walking or casual trail use, it's a solid performer. The rubber outsole provides good grip on varied surfaces.
