The Ariel is Brooks’s women’s maximum-support shoe. In our best running shoes for flat feet guide we found it perfect for runners with flat feet who overpronate, thanks to its extra stability and support.
The upper is comfortable and flexible, the shoe is easy to break in, and the midsole is well cushioned. Runners who use orthotics have particularly appreciated the design. The current Ariel GTS 26 sits alongside the Adrenaline GTS in Brooks’s stability range.
Who it’s for: women with flat feet or significant overpronation, including orthotic users.
