Adrenaline GTS 24 vs Adrenaline GTS 25

The Adrenaline GTS 24 is Brooks at its most dependable: a stability running shoe built to log easy miles, steady long runs and marathon training without ever asking questions of your legs. This is the daily training shoe that has quietly kept generations of runners healthy, and the 24 keeps that brief. You get gentle, always-on guidance rather than a rigid corrective post, so it suits mild overpronators and neutral runners alike who simply want a smooth, planted ride. At 140 pounds RRP with a tall 12mm drop, it leans traditional and heel-friendly, and the 283g weight tells you this is built for durability and comfort, not speed. We rate it as a do-everything workhorse: not exciting, not fast, but honest and reassuring. If you want one shoe that turns up every day and never lets you down, the Adrenaline is still one of the safest picks in running. The newer Adrenaline GTS 25 refines the same recipe if you want the latest version.

The Adrenaline GTS 25 is Brooks doing what Brooks does best: a dependable stability running shoe built to log miles, week in and week out, without any drama. This is the shoe you reach for when you want support that stays out of the way. The GuideRails system only steps in when your stride starts to collapse inward, so if you run neutral it barely registers, and if you overpronate it gently keeps you honest. With a 10mm drop and a 37mm heel it sits squarely in the traditional daily training shoe camp, aimed at runners who want structure and a familiar, protective ride rather than bounce or speed. At 301g it is not light, and it never pretends to be a tempo shoe. What you get instead is consistency. In our view this is one of the safest first-stability-shoe picks in the UK, and a reliable rotation workhorse for the runner who just wants to get out the door and train.
