Glycerin

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable shoe, however, after my 3rd time wearing them for a 3mile walk, I put them back on later that evening and had something poking my big toe. Couldn’t figure it out for a bit, but I did eventually. There is like a plastic rim Around it and somehow it bent/folded down poking my toe now. Not sure if one of the kids stepped on the shoe or bent and stayed there from my walking. Very annoying though. May have to try and return them.

Great for an Old Guy

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I'm a (unfortunately) retired runner. Glycerin 22 and now Glycerin 23 are my shoes. I ear them every day and everywhere. I was very pleased with the Glycerin 22, and I'm even more pleased with the Glycerin 23. The Glycerin 22 is very comfortable, and the Glycerin 23 is even more comfortable.The fit is great for my narrow feet. I could not be more pleased.

Comfortable

It’s a comfortable shoe. I do miss the StealthFit version of the Glycerin. The Glycerin 23 tends to feel clunky compared to my previous Glycerin 21 StealthFit.

Glycerin is still the best

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second pair of Glycerin. My initial impression was that the 23 was more firm than previous Glycerins. However, after a short break-in period, I find them to have adequate cushion for road running and I am enjoying them. FYI, I am 52 yrs old with a history of plantar fasciitis.

Great shoe!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The appearance and overall comfort is great, however, the 11.5 seems to run a little smaller than my previous glycerin's. I decided to return the 11.5 and get the 12's as my toes were at the end of the shoe in the 11.5. I hope the 12's fit. I will continue ordering Brooks, that is for sure!

Best support and comfort

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wear the ghost and glycerins, and the glycerin have a much cushier feel. I work all day on hard floors and think that they save my joints and feet from hurting.

Best Yet!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had several pairs of Glycerin’s going back to the 20’s and these are the best yet! I’m not a runner but an avid walker and these are the perfect combination of softness and support. I also like that the top seems to be more padded for the top of my foot. I have 3 pair of the 23’s and love them all! Highly recommend!

Great walk/runner great support and natural feel

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

This is a nice supportive shoe for serious walking, running, or exercise. It's stable but not too spongy, I like it pretty good.

Not wide enough

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Did not fit as well as the other Brooks 11.5 wide Men's shoes. The Glycerin was the only one that was a little tight and uncomfortable.

The right balance for me

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wearing Brooks for years, and have found my perfect shoe with Glycerin. It has the perfect balance of comfort and stability for me. Greatly reduces knee stress.

My husband loves these. I got them for his birthday. I have two pair and said these are the best especially if you have any kind of foot problems. I would highly recommend these for any kind of walking or running.

Amazing Shoes! Ok laces.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything about this shoe is a 5 except for the laces. I will probably only ever wear glycerin for the rest of my life, but this limited edition version comes with rope-like laces that have a tendency to come untied more than other laces I’ve had before. It’s not enough of a big deal to worry about, but it’s something to know.

Great!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love the Glycerin 23! I normally wear the Ghost Max, but decided to try these. While I still like my Ghost Max, I like the Glycerin 23 more. Very comfortable and plush. I feel like walking on a cloud. Great plush when running.
