Excellent Shoe
Originally posted on Home Tester Club
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glycerin 23s are my favorite daily trainers and easy run shoe. I have already went through several pairs. I love the wider toe box, cushion and yet light weight feel. This shoe is comfortable with a good response. Love this shoe and will continue to buy. I also love all the color options too as a fun bonus!

Not a good fit for me. I tried the Ghost too and still not my favorite. You discontinued the Levitates and they were the absolute best fit for me.

Must Have
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I knew immediately that comfort, cushion, support and aesthetics were all equal players in the making of this shoe. I loved them so much I bought the same pair in another color for the gym.

Ouch
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the Glycerin 21s and 22s and had zero complaints, and I have just tried the 23s. After an 8 hour shift my arches are in a lot of pain. Not sure what changes might have caused this but I’m sad because I was so happy with the older versions.

Glycerin 23 is terrible
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
I have been wearing Brooks Glycerin for 20 years, and I loved them. The 23 model was terrible- there was a hard material at the toe that made them very uncomfortable. I can't understand why Brooks would change this sneaker like that. Will have to find another brand to wear unless they go back to the original construction.

Best wide sneakers!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best wide sneakers! These are so comfortable and supportive. And it's hard finding sneakers for wide feet, especially for women! I ended up buying a second pair so I can rotate them.

Great sneakers for wide feet!!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love these sneakers. As a woman with wide feet, it's hard finding good sneakers. I was so happy with these, I bought a second pair so that I can rotate them every day!

Achilles pain!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
I have run in Ghosts for many years, but the last few versions have not worked well for me. The Ghost 18 are particularly bad--this version comes up high in the back and bothers my Achilles tendon. So I decided to try Glycerins. And I like everything about the Glycerin 23s, except these too rub one of my Achilles tendons in a very painful way. When I go back to wearing my other running shoes (old Ghost 16s), my heel/tendon feels ok, when I wear the Glycerins, the pain flares. So I'm returning these and going back to the drawing board.

Cushion and responsiveness
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brooks made some good improvements on the 23s compared to the 22. While still too early to tell, I'm hoping the outside has better life than my 22s did. The amount of cushioning is nice and it's not too much where you may feel unstable. Good responsiveness on the run and a nice weight. Been enjoying running in them.

Reliable and Style
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brooks does it again. I previously rotated with another brand. I am 100% Brooks now. Brook is reliable on their models. I don't necessarily need the changes and upgrades (I don't think!) but I can count on them every time. Like a Honda car :) PS The colors are great. I always have many choices in multiple colors. Big fan.

Fits like a glove
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love, love these sneakers. They fit like a glove and my feet don’t get tired easily. I was just diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis and they help immensely. Would buy them over and over again.

Nice looking shoe, but weird fit.
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love these shoes because I love the way they look, but the way they're designed make it so it feels like your toe is always sliding forward and touching the toe box, even after I sized up. I do love that they give you an option to wear them a few times. And for that I will likely try another pair.

Bring back the regular heel cup
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been a big fan of the Glycerin until this model. The new heel cup rubs the back of my foot in a place that will cause a blister if I wear them for too long. Sad that I will have to switch shoes after these being my go to for triathlons and traveling for so many years.
