The best for flat feet!!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son absolutely loves his Glycerin Max 2 shoes!! With these shoes, he can now run and not have any issues with knee pain, ankle pain, or feet pain. These shoes help him run without pronation and give his flat feet the extra support that he needs. He will not go back to any other shoes. We highly recommend the Glycerin Max 2.

Too Narrow
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the feel of these shoes for cushion and support, but any time I run more than 4 miles the narrowness is excruciating. I hoped I could break them in over time, but abour 80 miles in and no cigar. Would buy a wide version in a heartbeat.

Great for those long recovery runs
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been running in these exclusively for recovery and zone 2 runs and I have been very pleased with their performance. Even over 7+ mile runs I find I have less shin pain, and generally less overall fatigue since I have switched to these shoes.

The best sneaker ever!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried many a sneaker to correct my plantar fasciitis, I found my cure within the glycerin max 2. I now own four different colors so as not to wear them out. The support, the give with the ground, and the overall build of your product is incredible. Thank you for my relief.

Comfortable Run
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love these shoes! They truly feel like I'm running on a cloud and are also great for everyday wear. The cushioning is incredible, they're lightweight and comfortable, and they've made every run more enjoyable. Highly recommend the Brooks Glycerin Max 2!

The perfect shoe for comfortable daily runs
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the Glycerin Max 2 for daily runs and longer distances, and they have been extremely comfortable. The cushioning feels soft and protective without making the shoe unstable, and the ride remains smooth even when my legs are tired. They fit me very well and provide good support on pavement and light gravel. They are slightly heavier than a speed shoe, but for comfort, protection, and recovery runs, they are one of my favorite pairs.

Small step back from the first gen, but still an amazing shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really good shoe. A bit on the firm side compared to the first generation. Love the new upper though.

If you want a faster recovery!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was getting ready to leave Brooks when this shoe came out. It has changed things for me so much. Longer runs with faster recovery. My joints/knees feel night & day different. Only thing I ask is Brooks make a wider version like they do for all their shoes.

Replacement and Upgrade
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced my Glycerin Max shoes after 420 miles with the Glycerin Max 2 and they are now my primary running shoes. They have a good combination of support and cushioning.

Most comfortable shoes ever!
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the most comfortable shoes i've ever worn! They are very very cushioning and plush, its like walking on pillows. They are high, the soles are thick which helps add comfort to every step. I took these on my travel and walked in them all day and had no issues. I have the all White colors, i wish they come out with an all black or grey because the white obviously gets and looks dirty very quickly but nonetheless highly recommend! I've tried Hoka, On Clouds, Fit Flops, these are still the best.

The Original Max was way more confy
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved the Max and been running on them since they came out and the most comfortable running shoe I ever tried but the Max 2 is so different and the comfy feel is gone I am praying the Max 3 gets back to the original or I guess I will try another brand

Perfect shoe for 40 year old bones
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these. After running upwards of 5 runs 5-7 miles each, I can confidently say these are amazing shoes. I don't feel any fatigue, pain, or stress after having run over 5 miles in these and frequently finish runs just because I've run my usual routes. Now that I have these shoes, I need to make some longer routes and see if I can continue training injury-free!

Not for everyone
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cushy, high, although unstable feeling. Too bulky for my style. The tapering on forefoot is somewhat awkward compared to Ghost Max 3. No bounce, plush feel when stepping, roomy. Does feel quite warm due to extra dorsal foot padding. If you are male, this style may seem more feminine for you (no offense, this is merely about styling). Finally, wearing for just 24 hours, you will notice crease on the sidewalls of the cushion. I have compared this to Ghost Max 3, which was a clear winner for me as it provides perfect balance of comfort, room, cool (temp), styling (although could use better netting design like the Ghost 17/18), stride and not as bulky either.

Most Comfortable Shoes Ever
Originally posted on brooksrunning.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the most comfortable running shoes I have ever had. As a longtime 5k and mile runner returning from a longtime sabbatical from the sport, I wanted shoes that would help me train without putting excessive strain on my ankles or calves. These are springy so that I can run longer without exhaustion and energized for the next day’s run. The curled toe on the front sole helps me continue my stride, and my entire foot feels supported by the max cushioning as well.
