“Feet down” the best shoe in its class!!!

***Probably the best running shoe I’ve ever purchased***, Just to preface, I am 6’4 240 pounds I run 2-4 times a week 3-4mi and these glycerin max hold up so well (I wear out most pairs of shoes within two months), extremely comfortable/stable good response when I pick up speed, I read a couple reviews before I purchase people said they were a little on the Heavier side I think they’re perfect weight, good room in the Tow box, the tongue and heel are very plush and comfortable your feet do not slide around like other brands would and this similar style of every day running shoe! Huge shout out to Brooks did a killer job on the shoe

Comfort Meets Style

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid runner, I was really excited about these shoes. They are true to size and extremely comfortable. In terms of comfort it’s definitely a 10 out of 5. Super light and running in them feels like walking on clouds. I like walking and running with my kids and these are perfect for running on concrete. The cushion really helps with the knee pain that I get now in my “old” age. All my running shoes are from this brand but I never tried this line. The shoes are definitely more stylish than my normal shoes. I would have preferred more white rather than a yellow that reminds me of glow in the dark stickers.

Very comfortable minimal break in

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are great! Very easy on the feet and very minimal break in. The only downside and reason I knocked off one star is because the sizing was off by a bit the shoes run slightly larger than usual. Otherwise I have no problems, they look sleek and feel great. I typically feel within the first mile if the shoes are going to work out or not for me since I have a high arch and I felt great and was able to run 10 miles with no issues. For break in I simply just wore them around for running errands prior to breaking them out for a run and they needed minimal break in. I am going to continue to wear these and re purchase. Will update review when I see how long lasting they are.

Comfortable shoe but not right fit

It's a nice shoe. Very comfortable. I really like it and like the color. I bought a 10.5 size shoe. But I am not sure if it's the right fit for me. It comes only as a regular/medium size, and it seems a little bit tight for me. I have to untie and tie the laces every time I need to wear the shoes. It's very annoying and frustrating as well as tiresome. It hurts my fingers as I have to kind of put effort and struggle to inset my feet. I wish they made it in wide-width size. But I am still giving it a try to see if it loosens up over time. If not then I will have no other option but to return those.

Love this shoe

I bought my glycerin max a month ago and I absolutely love this shoe!! It is so comfortable, plush and yet bouncy. The best shoes for easy runs and recovery runs. It really looks after your legs, at the same time it offers somewhat fun ride. I really recommend this shoe!

Brooks Glycerine Max loving it to the Max!❤️

Shoes have great cushioning. Normally if I have I short walk, my calf muscles goes really tight. But with this it support my foot with the impact due to its heel support which works with me. Long standing is never an issue wearing this pair of shoes.

Our problem isn’t with Brooks shoes, but with Brooks’ beliefs.

I have two complaints about Brooks: First, they didn’t release a wide size for this shoe. Second, they didn’t offer solid, neutral colors like black and white. Therefore, I believe this shoe has the potential to be the best in the world for years to come—if a wide size were made available. Brooks has ruined the joy of this shoe by only offering it in a regular width! When will Brooks realize that its running shoes are also suitable for everyday use and semi-formal wear? And that there’s a large audience who uses their shoes for purposes other than running?
