Extra long tongue could be a deal breaker

This is my third pair of Pure Cadence and my first pair of 4s. These shoes are extremely cushioning and lightweight. They feel amazing from the first time you put them on. I love the new toe box. It is on the wide side, which is perfect for my feet. They have also removed all striping from the toe leaving it very soft and flexible with no annoying parts that rub. My big beef with these shoes is the new tongue. It is extra long and always moves way off to the side. I replaced all of my socks and bought ones that come up higher in the front, but the tongue of these shoes continues to be a major annoyance. I really hope Brooks goes back to the "burrito" style of previous models or I am going to have to find a new favorite.

They are too long for my tongue but I keep losing mine so it's a great back up....it's a good variety though..great customer service!!!!!

Be aware that the tongue in the new shoe is about a half an inch shorter that in my previous version.  Still insulates the upper laces but not much room for the tongue slide into the shoe before the laces are wearing directly on your socks.

Love the way the shoe looks and it fit well. Returned my pair as the shoe tongue is extremely long and constantly rubbed on ankle. Built for soccer but I was hoping I could use them as a casual shoe with jeans.

The tongue is roughly cut, leaving a messy edge.  Not a clean look.  I will keep them because of the price, but they look sloppy and unfinished.

The tongue on the shoe did not extend beyond the lace line; it was either even with or slightly below the lace line.  The concern is that the lace would go under the tongue of the shoe and cause issues with the comfort and function of the shoe.  Not sure why the design change.  Others have commented on this very issue.  I returned mine.

I loved the color of this tongue ring but it is actually quite big which is something I couldn't get used to.

Bought this thinking it would fit. I have 33x12.5/15 tires and 15x10 wheels on a Jeep Wrangler and according to instructions I should use the long tongue. With everything mounted the long tongue is about 2 inches too short.  After talking to Yakima customer support, I ended up having to weld the short and medium tongues together to get the correct length. Unfortunatly that also voids the warranty according to Yakima support, because they do not have anything longer than the long tongue.  I would have given this rack 5 stars if energy thing worked, 4 stars if customer support said that they have a longer tongue that I can order. But neither happened so 2 star rating for this product.

Bought 3 or so tongue piercings from here trying to find a way to slowly size up from 10g to 8g to 6g. But the 6g is too big to force through my tongue. I want to find a 7g but I feel as if that will be impossible. Just wish these weren't $10 each.

Having a tongue ring, I have to be very careful on what goes in my mouth!
These fit just fine, the material metal was fine, but I almost choked when the top came loose and I bit the metal so fricking hard, I broke my tooth... Love the playboy, but wasn't worth the pain...
Thanks but I'll be going to Tattoo shops from now on to buy my jewelry.

These boots were fairly cute, but I had a couple complaints with them. First, the tongue does not stay in place. As soon as you start walking, the tongue sticks out and stays there. They seemed like they would be pretty comfortable, but weren't what I was looking for.

The mouth looks a bit derpy, would be better without it

The shoe is great except for a problem with the "burrito tongue," which wraps over the top of the shoe. If it's not laced exactly right, it will dig into the top of my foot at the ankle. It seems to be breaking in, but if it stays like this I may have to get a different shoe. It does fit well and feels great otherwise, but this will have to work itself out for me to keep wearing it. Most of the time it is OK, but it is sometime irritating to my foot. The fit is the same as my old v2, no problem there. It would be 5 stars except for that burrito tongue problem.

I'm a 6 foot male; about 160 pounds.  I don't believe I have a particularly small mouth, but this was quite large for me.  I had to cut off about 3/8ths of an inch from the back and I trimmed the top around the front so it would fit more comfortably in my mouth.  So, just be aware that some trimming may be necessary.

The directions for fitting it worked great.  It now fits perfectly.

The tongue will not stay in the boot so your pant leg won't go down over the boot unless you keep fixing them. Other than that they are OK

unfortunately, the tongue slips down when putting the shoes on and is difficult to pull back out and happens during normal wear as well.
