All day comfort.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new Glycerin Flex exceeded my expectations! Wow! They look amazing - the colour combo is really striking and compliment any outfit. When I put them on for the first time, it was like they had been created for my feet. Incredible sensation - like a cushioned glove giving an all day hug! I wore them to work and I have been walking, jogging, jumping, squatting, kneeling, and dancing in circles - I'm a Prep teacher! My feet feel supported and lightweight. I have been wearing my Glycerin Flex for 10 hours now - and I don't want to take them off!  Thank you, Brooks! I think these are my new favourites!!

Very impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really impressed with the Glycerin Flex tennis shoes. The landings feel soft and cushioned, and the toe-offs are smooth and easy. The tuned foam definitely has a distinct feel—supportive without feeling heavy. These shoes move really well with my feet and are super flexible while still supportive. I feel more in control when I run, and they help me stay tuned in to my movement. What really stands out is the comfort—I can wear them all day, around the house or for fitness, and my feet never feel sore. Plus, I love the pink and white design. They’re stylish, comfortable, and easily one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve worn. I will definitely be ordering more of these type of shoes.

The all-new versatile Glycerin Flex

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been able to wear this shoe running, walking and working multiple 8+ hour shifts. I have given this shoe a 4/5 overall rating because I feel that this shoe is very versatile and overall comfortable for all activities, I used it for. I am a neutral runner/walker so I never felt unstable or unsupported in this shoe. While running in this shoe I could feel the flexibility, allowing my foot to move in a natural way. I think this shoe is going to be best for a consumer with a neutral gait, looking for a comfortable every day running/walking shoe. Thus far, the durability and materials are looking like they will be great! I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

New speed workout shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered these. I love the Glycerin well except the 22's. The 23's are back to being wide. I ordered these for speed workouts as they're light but still have enough cushion. I absolutely love them. They're stiffer than the Glycerin 23's and a tad bit more narrow but for speed work they're awesome. I love the flex, cushion, and how springy they're. I found them still wide enough that my toes have room to move and found the cushion had enough stiffness and cushion to make them the perfect speed shoe. I will be trying them at Hyrox Cancun in a week but I believe they will be the perfect shoe for Hyrox too.

Hands down - best running shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been looking for the right pair of running shoes - these are it! I have never found a pair of shoes that make the landing feel like a pillow on my heels. I am feeling less impact through my knees and ankles during my run, allowing me to increase my mileage. With the amount of support these shoes provide, you would think that they would be stiff as boards. Absolutely not! The shoe moves perfectly along with my foot through the stride. Not to mention, they’re cute as can be. I love the pops of color that sprout from the white body and the colorful soles.

Comfortable yet beautiful shoes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love these shoes. They feel really good on your feet with just the perfect amount of cushion. The toe box is very spacious, so my toes don’t get cramped while I’m running. They have the second Loop at the top to do the runners tie. Bonus that they look beautiful. There’s a lot of ventilation on these shoes. Sometimes when I’m running, I have to loosen the laces on my shoes because the tongue digs into my feet, but the flex in these shoes have not given me that issue. These shoes tie up beautifully and just feel like a giant hug for your feet.

Amazing shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glycerin Flex delivers smooth, controlled landings with a responsive toe-off that feels well balanced. The tuned foam absorbs impact without feeling soft or unstable, giving the shoe a distinct, refined ride. The flexibility is noticeable and works naturally with your foot, especially through transitions. It feels supportive without being restrictive, allowing the shoe to move with you rather than against you. I feel more in control and “tuned in” while running in these compared to other cushioned shoes I’ve tried. What really stands out is how plush yet agile they feel — comfortable, flexible, and responsive all at once.

Different but great!

I was curious to try this new style after wearing the Glycerin 22s for a while. My first impression was to not like it very much, since I was so used to having extra cushion. As I started running, my feet hurt a little and the shoes felt stiff. However, after breaking them in, it was like the shoe hugged my feet and moved with it. It felt like I was wearing socks with added cushion! Somehow, I ended up running a half with these on my first time with them because I could not get over how good they feel. I could also see these being great everyday shoes. They will not be for everyone because I believe some will still prefer the added support of other shoes. I have about 100 miles on these now and I can definitely say they are still awesome. Please bring out more fun and bright colors!

Amazing Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are extremely versatile and can be worn casually, on a run or doing gym workouts. It performs well for long walks, which I mainly use my shoes for. I loved how sleek the design was and how comfortable and light they feel. They feel like you’re just wearing socks! The knit material is stretchy and the shoes are true to size. One minor complaint - the inner seam of the shoe tongue can be uncomfortable since the seams will curl and fold. I got the white/gum color! So cute and was easy to clean.

New Shoe Review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been running for over 15 years now, and I'm always skeptical of testing out new shoes-but these surpassed my expectations. These were a DREAM immediately out of the box! Very little break in time, and felt so comfortable during a quick treadmill run to test them out. I love the amount of movement that comes from the sole of the shoe, and the cushion is just right too. I'll be interested to see how they feel during longer runs-but so far, I'm impressed! My shoe size is usually anywhere between an 8-9, and I ordered an 8.5 which was perfect. The toe box is roomy, without being sloppy, and the heel support fits
