Happy Wife, Happy Run!

The improved cushion and balance on the new Hyperion 3’s really impressed my wife. Ankle injuries have made her a bit hesitant for anything more than 5k….but she just signed up for her first 10k after getting these!

Absolutely Love!

I was drawn to this shoe because of the intense ombre of the colors. It was a unique design. Who ever designed this shoe, deserves a raise! Finally a fabulous design! With it being Brooks, the fit is great for me

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring back the Hyperion 2!!!! I have been running in Hyperion Tempo and Hyperion 2’s for a few years. It changed my entire running experience and performance without trying. My training in both speed and distance improved dramatically. I enjoyed just running! The extra, unnecessary effort in an everyday mid-level cushion shoe - gone! I was sooo excited for the 3 only to be devastated that you did a complete revamp on the entire shoe!!! IT IS NOT a Hyperion 3, it is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MODEL SHOE and should have been introduced to the market as such! The fact that you actually ADDED over an ounce to this shoe says enough, Tack on the thick “everyday” upper material and all the bulky cushion, and you succeeded in making nothing more than another “Everyday” runner that looks like every other model you have out right now. The Hyperion 2 was a rare find and Brooks should have embraced that they mastered a tempo and everyday running shoe all in one, and at a great price! There is not a minimalist runner (that actually has great cushion - maybe figure out a TAD more in forefoot) on the market today. I am completely lost and my running game and training is now in shambles. Also, I have been a major fan of Brooks because you have always been good at making upgrades, but maintaining the actual integrity of each individual model/make of shoe, so a runner can count on the next model to continue with their training. YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN CONSISTENT - in a great way. You have never been a trend or fad FOLLOWER, and this was definitely an outside the box move from you designers. I have been running for over 25 years. I have run in every brand and in general, have come to learn I am more on the minimalist side of shoe, but still need cushion with proprioception, at a minimal weight… Hence, the HYPERION, specifically 2 (tried the other Hyperion options, nope:)). PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, do some minor upgrades to the cushion material, throw in a few new color/pattern designs, and BRING BACK THE “REAL” HYPERION -Classic (yes, you can use it!). I have been left without a running shoe and am now dealing with hip and knee tweaks from trying higher stack and heavier mid-level runners out there. Adizero EVO SL is the closest thing, and misses the mark - cheaper, uncomfortable upper; drop isn’t the sweet 8mm spot; stack a little too high; and too rocker-like, putting undo stress on knees. PLEASE BROOKS!!! I BEG OF YOU, bring back a “REAL” update to the Hyperion 2 - a minimalist classic that offers a surprising amount of cushion and energy return without losing the ground feel that a lot of everyday runners and speed trainers love. LOOK AT ALL OF THE REVIEWS HERE, and please LISTEN. From the casual everyday runner to runners training for races, the shoe took a massive wrong turn. It took a dive into the everyday, not even that great, category. I love BROOKS, so please know this took a lot of my time to write (because running is that important to me) and I mean this review with the utmost respect. Feedback from someone who is a 25 year runner, understands materials and technology, and is just begging you to please bring the Hyperion back (with minor Hyperion-like upgrades) to join the rest of your lines. You now have 4+ Glycerins, figure out how to get this one back in the mix. There are enough high stack, max cushion, rocker, stability, carbon plated runners out there. Keep a speedy classic for those who enjoy the pleasure of just running! Thank you for your time

Awesome Shoes!

Really good running shoes, super lightweight. I did size up half size. Would definitely buy again.

Good support. Seemed narrow for my toes. Extremely uncomfortable.
