Love My New Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wearing Ghost for 15 years. Got a favorite new shoe now! Yay Flex!

Flexible Comfort

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a healthcare worker, I needed a shoe that was both comfortable and light for my long shifts. I have high arches and need more flexibility and cushion in my shoes and these ones are perfect. I never had to “break them in.” These are my first pair of Brooks and I will never go back to the other brands.

Satisfied Customer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I suffer with neuropathy in my right leg from knee to toes related to my hip replacement since 2017. The flex sneakers make walking easier including workout and work I have been countless sneakers and shoes this is by far my best experience ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Soo comfortable, my favorite Brooks yet! Heel pain practically gone!

So Pretty!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My favorite every day shoe. I bought it to use for shorter runs and go to the gym, but they are so comfortable I started wearing them to work almost every day instead (I’m a PT). I’ve never gotten so many compliments on a pair of tennis shoe in my life! Absolutely love them! I prefer my glycerin 23 and Hyperion max for the bulk of my running, but these are great for shorter run, cross training or just being on your feet all day.

Forever And Always Brooksrunning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been fond of the brooks glycerin series. This one by far is the best. I tried to cheap out and by two sketchers for the price of one Brooks but as usual I always come back to Brooks. I wont be making that mistake again. Forever and always BrooksRunning!

Narrow Toe Box Bit Comfortable

I was suffering with knee and shin pain in a different Brooks shoe. These immediately felt better. Until about 2 hours of just walking during errands and I’m getting a blister on the outside of my toe. Although I wear 8N in shoes, the toe box cuts in sharply and is too narrow. Disappointed.

So Disappointed...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love these but I'm afraid they have to go back. The more I wear them, the more my feet are left sore and blistered. I do love how light and responsive they are during HIIT classes but I can't walk or run without developing blisters. I find them lacking stability and a bit narrow in the toebox.

Stylish With Great Cushion

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love everything about my new Glycerins. They have lots of cushion and are very stylish. They don’t make my feet look huge. Best pair of Brooks yet!

Great Shoe, Bad Tongue Design

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a devoted fan of the Glycerin Stealthfit because the top of my feet are very sensitive. I was excited to try this new iteration that replaced the Stealthfit. Overall the Flex is a better sneaker than the Stealthfit in so many ways BUT the tongue. I can’t understand why it’s not attached. It takes me more time than it should to get this shoe on comfortably because I have to adjust the tongue several times. The seams on the edges of the tongue curl under so trying to get it to lay flat on the top of my foot is a challenge. I enjoy the Flex because I like a lot of foot feel on the road, but it’s still very cushy. But please Brooks attach the tongue, thin out the edges or even use the Stealthfit upper to improve it.

Expected More

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was initially excited to try out these shoes. They were given as a gift. I walked in them 2-3 times to "break them in." Today I went for a run on roads and sidewalks and the whole outside part of my right foot hurt after from the rubbing/compression. They err on being too narrow, not just in the toe, but everywhere and the heel part rubs. (Also I could not fit my usually orthotic in there without it feeling like my foot was being pushed out) Today's run was without orthotics in fyi

I Love Them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been loving these shoes! I use them for my long runs and they’ve been super comfortable, lightweight, supportive, and cushioned without feeling heavy. They keep my feet feeling great even on longer distances. They also match my style perfectly, so they’ve quickly become one of my favorites.
