[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good everyday running shoe. Slightly narrow toe bruises the outside of my big toe. Inside of toe dents in if you put pressure on it while stretching with the top of your foot down. Kind of annoying. I have to pinch the dent out every time, I’m worried about it wearing into a permanent crease on the toe.

Give it time to break in beforehand

Originally posted on Home Tester Club

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shoe needs to be broken in before endeavoring into long walks, runs or everyday activity. Once you do that, they’re comfortable and the stability is great.

Heal Pain

Originally posted on Home Tester Club

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I made the mistake of ordering a second pair before enough walking time in my first pair of Glycerin 23. I developed a pain in my left heal after a few days with the first pair. I returned the second pair without need to try them on. A credit came through promptly, thank you. I had not had a similar problem with the Glycerin 20 and was surprised. Something about the newer design caused the problem for me.

Didn't work out

Originally posted on Home Tester Club

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice shoe, but not for me. I have balance issue's and the 25's are perfect for me. I thought I would give the 23's a try, because I needed some new colors to wear and unfortunately, the 23's did not work out. I felt unbalanced and like I might fall forward, so I had to return the shoes. Otherwise, they are nice to look at and will work for someone who doesn't need more stability.

Comfortable and easy to wear immediately!

Originally posted on Home Tester Club

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always order the GTS models and this time I didn’t, which was my mistake. I realized that I liked the GTS models better on my first outing in these shoes. Still, the shoes are great for walking around and my husband has been after me for years to order a pair in black with black soles so that I can wear them when I am in black jeans or pants. He likes the look and they are very comfortable. I initially bought them for the increased volume in the toe box but I think I will stick with the Adrenaline and Glycerin models for my foot shape. Still, they are comfortable and I wore them for a 13 mile urban hike with absolutely no issues.

These are excellent!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

These are excellent. Best I’ve found. I overpronate a bit especially on long runs when I get fatigued. These shoes have just the right amount of stability and structure (guide rails?) and plenty of cushioning, but without the “bouncy pillow” vibe. I bought a second pair to rotate.

glycerin 23's

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

have been running in them for about a month now. stability is pretty good although the left seems to be less than the right. definitely more comfortable when running on slight slant that pushes my left foot to outside of shoe. comfort is pretty good. may have been hoping for a little more comfort. i still have my glycerin 22's. they are slightly more comfortable. i am hoping this will change as they may break in some more. i think the tread is also less slip resistant on wet surface vs my 22's. different designs as i compared them. noticed as i went thru a wet surface and noticed to slippage on toe off. i will keep them. not enough to return them and try something different. as i said they may still break in some more

Not the fit

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Gotta say, not happy with the fit. I got the wides and the toe box is an odd shape that makes my big toes rub against the sides. Pretty disappointing due to the cost and I had a pair of shoes from brooks in the past but dont remember the model, those fit perfectly. These also don't seem as supportive compared to those and im not as fond of how these feel like the front squishes down more.

Excellent cushioning and stability. Highly recommended!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent shoes. The cushioning is incredibly comfortable, and the GuideRails support provides great stability. They significantly reduce the pressure on my knees during long walks. The fit is true to size, and the overall quality is outstanding. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for comfort and support.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the questioning, but I do not like that. It doesn’t feel like there’s extra support as far as on the sides and for my foot. I tend to supinate, so I’ll probably need a different show.

Best shoes ever

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The best running shoes I have ever had, great cushioning without sacrificing stability at all. If it’s 5 miles, or 15, they keep my feet and knees feeling great.

Good as usual!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Always look forward to the next line of glycerins that come out, and this one doesn't disappoint. The one thing I would change is the little loops that hold the laces on the front of the tongue that have never been there before, as they get in the way of my fingers tightening and loosening the middle portion of the laces.

Senior Runner

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am relatively new at consistent running and I would be considered a senior runner. I run around 10 to 14 miles a week. I love my Brooks. Started with the Adrenalines and have switched to the Glycerin GTS as well as the standard Glycerin. Both offer a very comfortable ride and maintain wonderful support. When I am not running, I still wear them as often as I can. Absolutely a 5 star sneaker.

A Beast alternative
