Brooks Men's Ravenna 11 Running Shoe

Product Information

Take my last statement with one caveat: if you have a narrow foot throughout, your regular size in Ravenna will likely support you well, especially for faster, short to mid-distance efforts. Its uses extend beyond jogging and running, this pair is also suitable for walking and daily use so wearers can enjoy reliable comfort no matter where their day takes them. It is available in regular and narrow widths for both men and women to accommodate the needs of those with broader feet. Upper For supreme efficiency and first-class comfort, the Brooks Ravenna 11 Mens Running Shoe will deliver every time. Not only does it have Brooks’ classic BioMoGo DNA midsole cushioning for lightweight comfort, it’s fitted with the GuideRails system to protect your knees by preventing excess movement. On top of that they’re sleek and speedy, with a one-piece mesh upper for a light and breathable fit and the Midfoot Transition Zone for rapid heel-to-toe transitions. Combining comfort, performance and minimal weight makes the Ravenna a great shoe for running both marathons both shorter races. Get set to smash your PBs. The take-away for you is that if your entire foot is narrow, your regular size in Ravenna has a good chance of fitting well. If you have a narrow heel and medium forefoot, you’ll likely need a half size up.

I know going up was the best choice as smaller would have pinched at the ball of the foot. To explain, I’ll compare size 10 in Ravenna 11 to size 9.5 in the ASICS Gel-DS Trainer 24.

The first thing I noticed when taking these out for a spin is quite simply, I felt fast. If you are a fan of ASICS’ Flyte Foam, you’ll be into the familiar firm yet springy feel of the Ravenna 11’s BioMoGo DNA midsole. That on top of a bouncy all-rubber outsole makes for an energetic rebound that’ll keep you going on even your toughest training days. And, if you’re worried about the GuideRails technology feeling too supportive, don’t fret! The guidance they provide is low-key, enough so that even neutral runners will find them unobtrusive while running. WHO THEY’RE FOR: All this to say, DS feels more like an extension of the foot; Ravenna combines responsiveness with support in a more beefed-up (for a speed shoe) midsole. Needless to say, time will tell on this question. When it comes to creating durable running shoes, I think Brooks does some fantastic work, and I hope nothing less from the Ravenna 11. Wet or dry: this grip won't fail youI have been comfortable running in the Brooks Ravenna 11 since day one. The weight (266g) and heel-to-toe drop (10mm) both fall on the lighter to moderate side of things, providing for a wonderful ride that makes you wonder just how this is a stability shoe in the first place. Further, between the Ravenna and DS Trainer, the DS is snappier, but the Ravenna combines more cushion (to a still responsive ride) with an outsole that banks outward from the upper more than the ASICS. The unobtrusive guidance is there if you need it but easy to ignore when you don’t, which can be helpful for a regular pronated foot motion when muscles fatigue and for those who overpronate to a low-moderate degree If you crave stability without a lot of clunky support and you love to go fast, you’re going to love the Ravenna 11. You’ll also love that they’ve got: prefer a cushioned stability shoe for daily training (consider a pair from the Brooks Adrenaline GTS line)
