Brooks Men's Glycerin 23 Running Shoes

About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    "The premium cushioning throughout the heel all the way to the forefoot is unmatched with the DNA Tuned tech. There are two nitrogen injected cells in the shoe, one larger one in the heel for cushion and one smaller one in the forefoot to provide explosiveness, and they provide me so much more relief when running. Putting on the shoe is super simple with the easy pull loop in the back, which helps me get on the ground running quicker than ever. Most shoes I try on and they don’t last me longer than 4-5 months, I can confidently say the Brooks Glycerin 23 can hold up much longer than my previous shoes. The rubber tread on the bottom is so durable and gives me the confidence to run on any terrain anywhere. I can’t recommend this shoe enough for anyone that wants a plush ride, good support, and reliable shoe that can go the distance." - Dylan, Run Ambassador at DICK'S Sporting Goods Gilbert, AZ

High Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable and supportive. I have wider than normal feet so I sized up one size and it fit perfect.

A Must Have In The Rotation

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stable and comfortable ride. Plenty of room in the toe box. Since I tie my shoes only once after I buy them the easy to use pull on loop has been a nice surprise. Color is outstanding.

Amazing Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoe has been great! Much improvement from the previous model. The shoe feels lighter, yet has great durability. I like how they decreased the heel to toe drop to 8mm from 10mm which is in my favor because of my hallux limitus condition of my foot. I could wear these shoes all day without issue. Wanting to definitely get more pairs and I would recommend to anyone needing a comfortable walking or running shoe.

Alleviated My Plantar Fasciitis

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how these shoes ride. They give me the cushioning that I need. In fact I have plantar fasciitis and it has been in remission since I got this shoe.

Disappointing Change From The Glycerin 22

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned more than 10 pairs of Brooks running shoes, including the Glycerin 21, 22, and now 23. Until this latest version, I had been a loyal Brooks customer and consistently recommended their shoes. After about two months of light use, the Glycerin 23 leaves my feet and legs noticeably fatigued and achy by the end of the day. This isn’t normal tiredness—it’s a persistent discomfort that I never experienced with previous Glycerin models. I’m not sure what changed between the 22 and 23, but the difference has been significant enough that I can no longer recommend the Glycerin line based on my experience with the 23.

Please Restock Mens Glycerin 23 In 7 Wide

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shoe, please restock mens 7 wide! I am a women, I wear 8.5 extra wide or mens 7 wide! This is the only shoe that works for me! I have the only color available in womens, and would love more color options!

Great Shoe, This Version Runs Small

shoe is great, my second pair. First pain fit great, size 12. second pair way too small, size 12.

Great Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shoe, good cushioning. Only quirk is the fabric around the ankle, it leaves a big gap where debris(stones, dirt) can gather

Great Starter

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The perfect entry runners shoe for me. I needed wide

Great Cushioning, But Still Supportive

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you love shoes with super soft cushion but still give you support these are the shoes for you. I actually haven’t done much running in them, but recently I wore these on vacation for multiple days of walking 20,000+ steps on hills, cobblestones and uneven terrain with absolutely no problem and no foot issues. My wife was also wearing her pair of Glycerin shoes and she said they felt great. Highly recommended.

Great Shoes

Soft Yet Firm And Supportive

This is my first time buying brooks, I went to brooks website for suggestions what type of shoes that will fit me, they suggested glycerin. I wear them for walking and pickleball, I’m not a runner and pickleball shoes are not soft enough and doesn’t come in wide option. Shoes are really comfortable but firm. I rolled my ankle on soft shoes before but not this.
