Our Verdict
Brooks Adrenaline GTS 24
Brooks Revel 8
The Brooks Adrenaline GTS 24 and Brooks Revel 8 may both be daily trainers, but they are for very different runners. The Adrenaline GTS is the classic stability option, fitted with GuideRails to help overpronators keep their foot centered, along with a broader platform and higher stack. The Revel 8 is a more value-oriented offering, good for beginners and short, easy runs or walking, though it lacks the pep and cushioning, so runners wanting a premium shoe without GuideRails are best served elsewhere in the Brooks lineup.
