Brooks Women's Glycerin Max 2 Running Shoes

About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    "If you’re someone who is constantly on your feet, the Glycerin Max 2 is the perfect shoe for you. I’m a retail worker who’s on my feet for 8-hour shifts and a mom, who, after work, takes her son to karate or does grocery shopping and may juggle many errands after work. When I tried on the Glycerin Max 2 it felt so soft and I felt like this shoe was made specifically for me. It’s a super plush shoe. The cushioning comes from nitrogen-infused foam that’s designed with extra softness in the heel and slightly firmer support in the front. The cushioning does a great job of taking pressure off your knees, heels and lower back. The heel-to-toe drop is 6mm which takes pressure off your calves. It feels natural for walking. Overall this is a great shoe to have in your closet. This is a shoe you can easily forget that you’re wearing it because it feels so comfortable." - Narda, Footwear Lead at DICK'S Sporting Goods Collegeville, PA

Great Running Shoe!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love these shoes! I feel like I’m running on air! I tried Hoka Clifton’s and was disappointed. I sent them back and got these. Brooks shoes are my favorite! * I did have to order a half size up because they don’t come in wide. The 9’s were too narrow and caused blisters.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have worn and loved the original glycerin maxs, I put about 300 miles on those and decided to order the glycerin max 2. They are completely different, they hurt my feet—specifically the ball of my foot, and all of my toes are blistered. Even just walking in them, I have foot pain.

Wow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great shoes and fit my foot perfectly for my walks. I bought these without knowing if they would help me enjoy walking a little more and they certainly have. They are very light but also so well cushioned that my feet stay fresh.

Awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable, the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. I use brooks for working out and for work as a healthcare worker. Amazing in both.

Excellent Comfort And Cushioning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the cushioning these Glycerine Max 2 shoes give me for all day walking tours. I ordered one size up

The Best Shoe For Standing/walking

I purchased this shoe for my job, I work in the OR and stand for hours at a time. They look great and they provide a great cushion. I also wore they to a Disney trip, and after 14 hours of walking and standing I didn't have any pain in my feet, knees or lower back. They are not great for circuit/crosstraining though.

Good Shoe, But Not For Me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a nurse, I have worn Glycerin every year since they were glycerin 18's for my plantar fascitis. However, I thought I would try the Max 2's to see if they were better. Unfortunately for me, the plain Glycerin are more comfortable than the Max 2. I will say that the Max 2 is stable for walking and the push off for your toes helps. But if I am going to purchase another pair for comfort in standing and walking all day, I will buy the Glycerin and not Max 2. Good shoe, but not for me.

Firmer Than V1. Need Brighter Colors

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We need more bright colors for women! A little firmer than their first version of the Max. Jury is still out for how well I like it.

Pretty Good

I bought these because I was looking for a max cushioned running shoe. They’re pretty good but not the softest.

Great Running Shoes!

I had previously been a loyal ghost enthusiast but switched to these and I love them!

Go For It!

Great fit and comfort. They are very classy. So clean looking. Can wear with anything anywhere! It’s taking a minute to get used to the higher sole but it’s worth it!

Love This Shoe- Now I Can Walk Again Without Pain!

Best shoe for my feet which have "hallux rigidus"(bone on bone arthritis in big toe jt.) + bunions. I've tried so many other Brooks & other name brand shoes, nothing comes close...I can once again walk without pain!! I got a 1/2 size bigger for my orthotics & they fit well. Now I would love to find a shoe I can trail hike in - with the same amt. of cushion and rocker motion!

Nice Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Slight stiffer than original one, but I really like this shoes. I ran about 22 miles in and there was little crack on lateral outer soles..not sure if i stepped on rocks or the softer material or not, but I will be wearing this shoes for upcoming marathon training for sure! If there wasn’t crack after I ran 22 miles, I will give 5 stars!

So Comfy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these shoes! Super comfy for long runs but I’ve also worn them for several races!!
