Brooks  Glycerin GTS 23 Road-Running Shoes - Women's

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have very flat feet, so when I walk my ankles roll in. Which these shoes are supposed to be great for helping with that. When I first started wearing them, the back of my lower calf were sore like a sore you get from a good workout. So I thought that maybe I was just using the right muscles that I’m not used to. After the soreness subsided, I noticed my feet hurt after walking during my 8 hour shift in healthcare. I’m going to continue to wear them and see how it goes. In terms of style I think they are good. One thing that I also l don’t like is how the toe box dents in right where the big toe is. My my toe is constantly rubbing against that when I walk

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shoe is so different from any other I’ve ever tried! This is my first pair of Brooks and the difference is incredible. When you’re running, not only is it incredibly comfortable and the width just right, unlike other narrower shoes, but it’s bouncy and propels you forward. The shoe is to running like an electric bike! It made running so much more enjoyable for me. The difference a quality pair of running shoes makes is wild. I was able to run longer because my feet weren’t hurting, I stayed comfortable, and I felt faster and more efficient in my run. These are also incredible just to run errands in. Absolutely the most comfortable shoe I own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my first pair of Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 as I have arthritis in both hips and am having injections in my hips for the pain. I wasn’t able to walk my usual 3 miles a day due to the pain, and these shoes have helped significantly with the pain walking and I am now able to walk my usual 3 miles a day. The soft landing helps walking on pavement as to not jar my hips, the shoe provides excellent stability and support keeping my foot from rolling and keeping my feet cool and comfortable. I have received lots of compliments on my new shoes, and am very happy with them and have recommended these shoes to my parents, my mother in law and my nursing friends as these shoes have been a game changer for me!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes have a soft cushioning, which I noticed as soon as my foot settled in, however, they are also structured enough to give me the stability while running on trails and uneven grounds. The shoe rolls forward smoothly and the stride stays balanced. It feels secure underfoot at both relaxed and quicker paces without any pressure points, which I highly appreciate. The look feels intentional and functional, but still stylish, which matches how it performs. I can see myself wearing these in casual settings when I seek comfort as well, such as the airport or grocery shopping. Overall, this is a very high quality shoe, perfect for different purposes from the gym, to running outdoors, to casual city strolls.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these shoes for running! When I put on the Glycerin GTS 23, I immediately feel comfort and a bounce to my step. My ankles feel secure when I run because of the extra cushion inside the shoe that supports the lower part of your ankle. After running, my feet still feel good. I love the pink and black color, and the size of the heel and sole of the shoe are great for walking and running. These running shoes feel light weight and one of the first things I noticed was the amount of grip on the bottom for traction. I really like the grip for running on different types of terrain. For reference, I am wearing my normal size and would say these running shoes fit true to size. I would highly recommend the Glycerin GTS 23 shoes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pronators beware of over correction! This used to my go to shoe for working especially the since the hours are long and the amount of activity I perform being in sports medicine. These killed my feet and I'm so upset. The new changes they made are causing me to over supinate and my tread wear is on the outside of the sole. I tried to give them a chance, but I feel that the new design towards the back on the outside is causing a collapse creating an over correction in supination for me. I naturally pronate from a high arch and these used to be perfect. I even bought the flex which also causes me to over pronate now. I'm so disappointed in the changes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like these overall. Great stability for runs and the shock absorption is 10/10 on concrete. I have been running in the Glycerin GTS 22’s for the past year and the 23’s have some notable differences. The 23’s have a “shelf” that propels you forward that took some getting used to. It also isn’t compatible with the Brooks ghost no show socks (the shelf hits right at the arch support of the socks and doesn’t feel great). The laces are difficult to double knot compared with the 22’s. But overall I like them: they are lightweight and the color is fun too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are great for running, and even regular everyday wear. I've been using them to run on tracks, treadmills, and roads, and they've worked great for all of these terrains. They provide great ankle support and keep my feet feeling comfortable the entire run. It gives a light and bouncy kind of feel while running that helps make running long distances feel easier. I've even worn them for everyday wear a few times and love how they look with casual wear. Aesthetically they are just pleasing, as well. They look really nice, athletic, and sleek.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a long-time fan of Brooks stability shoes since they typically feel great and have a range of size and color options. However, the extra material on the ankles of this design creates the perfect scoop to hold in even tiny amounts of dirt and small rocks. My typical walking/running trail is well-maintained asphalt, yet any spec of dirt gets caught in this ankle and creates a dirty ring inside the heel and along my white socks. Aside from that major annoyance, the shoes themselves don't feel as cushioned as I would've liked. Also, I typically wear a 9.5 W in Brooks, but these feel slightly shorter in length than my previous pair of Adrenaline GTS 23. Overall, I wouldn't purchase these again unless I were to wear them solely on an indoor treadmill.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was always wearing a size 6 in GylcerinGTS 20 and wear custom made orthotics. The size 6 in Gylcerin GTS 23 really hurt my feet and my toes felt cramped. I even trimmed down my orthotics to no improvement. Luckily my shoe store let me return for a 6.5. I’m not sure if the toe box is narrower or the changed heel cushion affected my fit with my orthotics. The size 6.5 is much better. It was frustrating because the same model shoe should be consistent in sizing. My foot measures a 5.5. If you wear orthotics my suggestion is to size up. Otherwise I have always loved these shoes. I’m a nurse and am on my feet 12+ hours a day.
