It is generally recommended to order Brooks running shoes 1/2 to one size larger than your dress shoes. For men's footwear, 'D' is the default width when no width is otherwise specified. 'B' is the default width for women's shoes.
Whenever possible, it is best to visit your local running and walking footwear store for a proper fitting and guidance to help you find just the right Brooks shoe. You can also refer to our online Shoe Advisor for assistance.
