Who it's for

Reach for the Brooks Beast GTS 24 for everyday training miles and easy recovery days. It has real support built in, so it suits runners who overpronate or like a locked-in, guided ride. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
