Great Shoe, My Go To... One Exception

Yeah, they are awesome. 51 years old, running since I was 14( Competitive XC, decades of mountain trails, and blah pavement). I have more 'hardware' in my body than I would like to admit and write about (remember mountains, pavement and water have zero emotions or concern about the body). I recently picked up a limited edition color way, its killer. What's with the price? Really... I have had 2 pairs of ghost and do not care for the fit, but that's me. The Glycerin is my favorite shoe, I have a pair of On (pssssfffft, they suck), asics keyano's that are decent, but these are my go to. The price is getting hard to stomach.

Best Shoes I’ve Had!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Once I tried Brooks- I’ve never worn another brand. I’ve tried them all. Nike, ASICS,, New Balance, Saucony, on cloud ( the WORST) and NOTHING compares to the comfort of Brooks. No more knee and back pain a lot less stiffness after a lot of walking and the cushion and comfort is just fantastic. I’ll never switch. So glad a friend suggested Brooks- give them a try.

Running After Knee Repkacement

They have the cushion I was looking for to protect my knee replacements.

Comfortable Ride.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable shoe. I have the 22's, and these feel great. Very soft and cushioned. I ran a 10k with these on, and no issues. Will purchase again.

Blown Away!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing!! So far the most comfortable shoe I have worn. I have an ankle with a long term injury. Wearing these specific shoes are the only things keeping me going. Long lasting, durable, and comfortable.

Best Shoes Ever!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves these shoes. They have great support and cushion. Her even started to wear them to work and helps with his back and foot pain while standing for hours. I have the same ones. They’re the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. I keep buying the same ones in different colors. Would definitely recommend!

Good Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good shoes. Comfortable. True to size. No blisters.

Wonderful Glycerin

Tried different Brooks styles over the years but my last 3 have been Glycerin style Comfort, wider toe and cushioning make this a fantastic choice

Glycerin 23 — Softest Shoe Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Switched from Ghost Max 2 to the Glycerin 23s. It’s unbelievable how much more cushion there is in the new 23s. It’s like walking on a cloud.

The Limited Edition Glycerin 23, Get This Shoe Before It’s Gone!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Limited Edition Glycerin 23 is an excellent addition to the shoe line! It should be made available permanently to the line! It’s cooler , and just as comfortable. I like the looks of both of the styles, they almost don’t seem like the same shoe, until you put them on & wow, very comfortable! A very breathable upper & a soft comfortable midsole! The fit is nice offering just alittle more space, to accommodate my just a bit wider foot.

The “ Go To Shoes” Glycerin 23 & The Limited Edition Summer Classic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have both the Glycerin 23 ‘s in the standard style & the New Limited Edition Summer Glycerin 23. Both shoes are very comfortable in the upper & the midsole. Both are a pleasure to walk or run or in the gym. I have a little bit of a wider foot than of a standard size, but both shoe fit me very well in toe box area. I really like the Limited Edition Glycerin, its, a bit more breathable and a great shoe for myself living in Hawaii, where the temperature is moderate throughout the year. Both of these are definitely going on our vacation to Japan & Korea where you will walk long distances & encounter a lot of stair walking . Both shoes are stable & feel light I like the style in the standard for the looks, for the treadmill, gym & for casual wear, l really like the Summer Series for running & & long distance walking , being it’s cooler. ( not big on the bright colors on shoes, I like the classic looks of the 1st Gen Glycerin Max, but that a personal preference) But really you can’t go wrong with any of the Glycerin 23’s well designed, a very comfortable shoe! A very versatile shoes!

Glycerin Is Great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these shoes! Glycerin are by far my favorite shoes for everyday wear. I have back issues and I've been trying different brands and these are the only ones that alleviates pain in my feet and back. The cushion is perfect, the heel is locked in with cushion around it and I love the colorway. If I had one suggestion it would be to have more colorways especially an all white.

A Great Running And Walking Shoe For Nyc

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a wider shoe for running and walking and the Glycerin 23 wide has been excellent. The quality seems great, comfort is excellent and my running and walking is less taxing on my feet. The fit is incredible for me. Finally a shoe I can live in.

Best Glycerin Yet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Most cushioned glycerin yet! I have had the Glycerin 19 through 23, and this one has the structure, the softness, and bounce that makes runs fun and keep the legs feeling great.

Needs Improvement

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Long time glycerin fan. Disappointed. Although the cushioning feels more bouncy. The toe box room has decreased significantly, toes push through the top, even in a EE wide shoe. The heel padding, gone. I have worn these shoes loyally and prescribed them to patients. Need to look for an alternative. Additionally the lack of colors for wide sneakers has fallen on deaf ears for years.
