Brooks  Glycerin Max 2 Road-Running Shoes - Men's

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 delivers exceptional support and cushioning for both daily wear and regular running. The GlideRoll Rocker has a short adjustment period, but once acclimated, it provides a smooth and comfortable ride. The fit is excellent, and the plush upper tongue adds noticeable comfort, especially during longer strides and runs with elevation. Performance was consistent across short daily runs and longer-distance workouts, and my feet felt great afterward with no soreness. Beyond performance, the shoe is also stylish and works well for everyday use, making it a great option for both running and casual wear.

The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 is an incredibly comfortable shoe with a fit that feels plush right out of the box. The cushioning is excellent, and the overall ride is smooth and enjoyable. I really liked the clean, modern design as well. The only drawback for me was the upper (heel area). As someone with a smaller build, the shoe looked noticeably bulky on foot, which threw off the aesthetic a bit. Functionally it was fine, but visually it just didn’t suit my frame. Aside from that, it’s a great shoe with top-tier comfort and a sleek design. If the proportions work for your build, it’s definitely worth considering. If you want, I can also rewrite it in a more casual, humorous, or marketing-style tone. US 8.5

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used the women’s Glycerin Max in a size 8.5 for summer marathon training, and they saved my feet and helped me recover from shin splints. I decided to get a men’s 7 for the Glycerin Max 2 because the color ways are just way better and the men’s 7 is perfect for me in regular Glycerins, so I figured they would work out. Anyway, although I’ve only taken them on a few easy runs so far, they are amazing. They feel snappier than the originals while maintaining the same level of comfort. I’ll amend my review after my first long run in them if need be. However, I have high hopes these will keep my feet happy during winter half marathon training.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are unbelievably comfortable. They truly feel like I’m walking on air. My feet feel amazing even after wearing them all day, which is rare for me. The sole is super thick and provides incredible cushioning and support, making them perfect for walking, long days on your feet, or easy/light runs. While I love the plush feel, the thickness does make them a bit too bulky for intense or fast-paced running. The thickness kind of makes me feel like I’m rolling forward when I run in these. That said, they absolutely shine as an everyday comfort shoe and for recovery or casual runs. The fit is incredible, the black color looks sleek, and every time I put them on my feet are genuinely happy. These are my go-to shoes when comfort is the priority.

I purchased Glycerin Max 2 because I Loved Original one, I trained and ran NY marathon with it, provided me supports and cushions that I needed for longer distance and i didn’t have an any problems with it! However Max 2 is slight stiffer than original one and also felt less cushions in heel area, but we will see how it goes with walking and standing at work and another fall marathon training with Max 2. I still love this shoes especially compared to other brands so, I gave 5 starts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glycerin Max 2 was my first time using a shoe with an oversized sole. I wear a men’s 9 and this shoe was comfortablely snug after getting laced up. The heel seemed a bit low when I tried them on for the first time but because of the fit, there was no issue with my heel slipping and no blisters. The first few steps did feel a little funny as I adjusted to the shoe height and the cushion feel but after a couple minutes I had acclimated to my new altitude. I liked the squishy cushion feel while running vs an harsh pounding. It is softer on my joints. I also like the spring like effect because of the shoe’s geometry. The GlideRocker was less noticeable on a treadmill than it was running on the track or road. I think this might help someone with endurance and long distance more than me who is bit out of shape.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time trying Brooks. I am a causal runner, mainly on the treadmill at the gym but occasionally in the neighborhood. My typical running shoes are trainers that I pick up on sale. This was my first set of dedicated running shoes. They did not disappoint. The fit was perfect for the size I ordered. Running was comfortable and felt natural with my foot. With other shoes I get shin splint at times but not with these. Very happy with my purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glycerine Max 2 looks a bit crazy, with it stack height and rocker, but on the run your forget the looks as they simply deliver a quality running shoe, with no perceived potential drawbacks. I didn't notice the stack height on the run, except that it helped the shoe provide great cushion and softness, while at the same time provide good energy return. Similarly, the shoes appears to have a significant rocker, but, again, it provides a great feel, without being an extreme feel. I feel the tongue has been improved vs. the first version of this model shoe. For me the shoe is comfortable and fits true to size and is a good pure running shoe for me, providing more than normal cushion.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Outstanding shoe! Looks and feels more streamlined than the first GM. Also to have more support than original GM. Orange shows brighter coming out of the box than online. Toe box is improved and material is definitely lighter with better air glow. i love that Brooks has upped their color / fashion game. These are 🔥🔥
