Brooks  Glycerin 23 Road-Running Shoes - Women's

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have worn Glycerins for many years and was excited about the new colors. I ordered the aqua/pink and they were beautiful. They were super comfortable and everything you’d expect for Glycerins. My normal size was fine despite reviews they ran small. However, something about the change quickly irritated an old stress fracture in my foot and they had to be returned. I am swapping out for Adrenalines but do hope to return to this line in the future. Even tried the Glycerin Flex and they felt AMAZING however I went with the safest bet. As a Sports Medicine provider who is always on her feet, I appreciate the support and discount to help fund my Brooks obsession.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a runner finding good shoes that will protect your feet is very important. First off, they run true to size! The cushion that these shoes provide help with stability and comfort. As soon as you start running you can feel the bouncy feeling when pressing down with your toes. The cushion all around the inside made it comfortable as I ran uphill. The cushion helped my feet stay in place even as i ran through rocky terrain. There’s nothing like being able to wear comfortable shoes while running without having to worry about hurting your feet. If you’re a runner, you know exactly what that means!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been so impressed by the comfortable yet supportive ride these shoes provide. From long runs and walks to all day outings, the comfort holds up consistently. They have a light, responsive feel that makes running on the paved trails that I typically run on enjoyable. They seem to absorb impact well and I have not experienced any type of fatigue even after having them on all day. Visually, I appreciate the clean, modern design these shoes have that definitely matches how the shoe performs. They are built for comfort and daily running and Brooks has not disappointed with this shoe.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been waiting for this shoe! The last couple of Glycerin models have not felt "right". I believe you have found the perfect combination of style and comfort with the Glycerin 23. I wear a size 9 and the sizing felt spot on. The material is comfortable and fits around the foot nicely. The laces are a good length. And, I love the color! I hope you keep this model around for a while and am looking forward to getting some more once there are more color options. Now, just slap a grippy sole on it and I can use it as true trail running shoe. The shoe still works great on mostly dirt trails without large elevation gains (see picture). Thanks for the great shoe! I'll definitely be stocking up on this one :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brooks are my all time favorite brand of tennis shoe, but this pair may take the cake. They fit my feet perfectly and are true to size. They are comfortable and very supportive. From the moment i put them on, to long runs, they fit comfortably! They are light weight and bouncy. It feels like I’m running on a cloud! My feet feel supported and stable though out my runs. And to top it all off, they are CUTE! My pair is a beautiful pink and white color and they are so stylish and look great on! Can’t say enough great things about the glycerin 23!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Glycerin feels comfortable and well-fitted right away, with a broken-in feel that lasts through runs. Plush yet lightweight, the shoe uses strategic padding to maximize comfort without bulk, making it easy to log miles without feeling weighed down. The ride is smooth and enjoyable, offering a balanced feel that keeps runs comfortable and controlled. It feels stable and confident at a variety of paces, and the design looks purposeful and authentic—clearly built for comfort, protection, and consistent performance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ’ve been a die-hard Glycerin fan for years. When they're good, they're great! That said, something has been off since the 20. I’m really happy to say the newest version feels like a return to form. Over the last few releases, there were a few things that just felt slightly off—but this version seems to have worked those out. The fit is dialed in again, hugging the foot comfortably without feeling restrictive. And the cushioning? Incredible. It’s soft without being mushy, and it really holds up over longer runs. What stood out most to me is how much later my feet start to fatigue compared to my last few pairs. That alone makes a huge difference in overall comfort and performance. It feels like Brooks listened (thank you) and refined what made the Glycerin great in the first place. I really hope they keep building on this, because this version is a big step in the right direction.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wearing the Glycerine model since the 19. I buy new ones every year and today I have 22 pairs including the 20, 21, 22 and one pair of the new 23. I donated all my 19s to a woman's shelter. I love the new 23 except I don't like that the tongue strap was replaced by two tiny loops, which the laces go through. I find that I must always pull the tongue forward because the tiny loops do not do what they were meant to do. The other models still have the tongue strap, so why the change? Esthetically, it does nothing to change the look of the new 23. Please bring the tongue strap back!! Except for this flaw in design, I love the Glycerin. Also, all the light colors...we need more deeper, saturated colors....been waiting years for a nice green color. The fit is perfect.

I’ve worn brooks for years. Unfortunately this pair is one of the worst I have worn. They are heavy and clunky- it makes my runs very difficult and I don’t like them. I would not recommend these and hope to return these and go back to the Launch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely comfortable yet light. Great for long runs. They remind me of older glycerin models that were my favorite. Size is similar to other Brooks shoes, 0.5 to 1 size up from my regular shoes.
