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

Worth The Money

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these for my son. He is a bass fisherman that competes in 8 hour tournaments. His legs and feet sometimes hurt from the stress of standing and running the trolling motor. These shoes have helped him be much more comfortable and less pain. I purchased another pair for his birthday. A good shoe, wish it was less expensive but it is worth the money. Thanks

Good For Longer Runs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shoe. 10k PR right out of the box. Help to propel you forward hence made for running not walking in my opinion. You have to make the shoe work. Have had the adrenaline 23 which I loved the 24 sucked made blisters on inside. Then Hyperion 2 which is a fast shoe not that good for longer runs. Anyhow for longer runs this shoe is awesome bit pricey but so far worth it.

The new Glycerin 23 is the best athletic shoe I ever had for shock absorption and comfort. It is an excellent walking shoe for older adults and has great lateral stability, too. If you need all the shock absorption and stability you can get in an athletic shoe, this is the one for you and well worth the price for sure.

Good With A Few Minor Caveats

Very good cushioning and fit. Only things I am not pleased with are too short shoestrings, and the little arch pull tab on the back....that always catches my pants leg and bunches it up. Wish these were not there.

Best Glycerin Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great running shoes - with just a couple of break in runs ran a 5k, 10k, and 10 mile race in 3 straight days with nothing but comfort on my feet. Didn't have any toe problems left over a week later and zero visible wear on the sole after the first 20 miles

Most Comfortable Shoe Ever

Bought these when I couldn’t find On Cloud shoes, so glad I did. I had to attend a trade show and needed comfortable shoes as I would be standing and walking all day for 5 days. Best investment in a shoe ever.. I highly recommend Brooks as a first choice.

Honest And Straight Forward. Not A Paid Review.

I’ve been wearing the Brooks Glycerin 23 for daily walking, stability, gait correction and these shoes have been one of the most comfortable pairs I’ve ever owned. The DNA Loft v3 cushioning is the standout feature—soft, plush, and consistent from heel to toe. It absorbs impact extremely well, especially on hard surfaces, and keeps my knees and joints from feeling beat up after a long day of physical therapies and walking to my medical appointments. As a plus, I get lots of compliments for the stylish and color combinations.

Brooks Gl;lycerin23

I bought this for my son with his foot problem. At first he liked them but wearing them he had to return them for a different size.

Out Of The Box, An 8 Mile Run. Overall Impression On The Run Was Super Soft, And No Break In Required. Just Unbox And Run Comfortably.

I like the tongue, it is very soft and the way the rear of the shoe comes up the back of the ankle and curves outward. This makes the shoe easy to get on and super comfy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I put these on, it felt like I was floating. Once I got to put my feet to the street, the cushion and comfort kept me going longer. The Glycerin 23 is by far the best running shoe I have ever worn.

Great All Around Training Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new Glycerin 23 is a great shoe if you want the ultimate cushioning along with lightweight. Great for long runs as well as speedwork.

A Must Have!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Incredibly comfortable while amazingly supportive! I bought 3 pairs!!

Great Replacement Of My Glycerin 20's.

I am a woman that buys men's 10 wide shoes to accommodate a thick "10 SECONDS Pressure Relief Insole with Met Pad" due to foot surgery. My foot measures women's 11, but the insole takes up a size, plus I like to be able to splay my toes without touching the side of the shoe. I had purchased 3 pair of Glycerin 20's, which I loved! Although both the upper and the tread on the 20's held up extremely well, I was losing some of the cushioning. The 23's feel fantastic, but I sure wish the blue would come in WIDE. The extra cushioning around the heel doesn't bother me, but if I didn't have the thick insole that elevates my foot a bit, it might. I am not a runner, but need comfortable shoes to walk 5,000-10,000 steps daily. The sole seems substantial. I hope it holds up as well as the Glycerin 20's did.
