Good shoes just not for my feet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried basically every brooks shoe. I couldn’t get one that worked for me but these were close. This max cushion trend is bad for my feet. These were a bit too plush for me and I didn’t know about heel lock lacing when I had them. That might have changed my experience drastically. Having to learn about stack heights, drops, stability vs neutral has been a massive challenge. But I love brooks for standing by their products. The only way I figured out my current feet needs was trying on a bunch and walking on real terrain. For these, I had to get a wide and I think I sized up a half bc it the place the drops hit my feet were wrong in my normal size. Problem with the wide is I just need a roomy toe box not every thing wide. I slid around a bit and at this stack height I was at risk of rolling my ankles bc I have to walk through grass a lot. Well made. Cute. Comfy when you figure out the right size for your foot in this shoe. I do wish the limited edition colors with the cool laces were also available in wide.

Terrible

I don't know why every shoe manufacturer are making their shoes so thick with all the foam and thick sole. It's ridiculous. I used to love Brooks. After glycerin 19 nothing has felt the same.

Not for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are not for me. I have family members that swear by them, but my feet were not happy! I ended up returning them. I think the quality is great, and I’m sure they’re a good shoe. They just didn’t work on me. Made my toes curl even though they weren’t too small.

Look Fantastic but toe box feels smaller

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I LOVE the color and the way they look. I’m glad Brooks added some colors for women’s shoes that aren’t teal, pink, lavender..however the toe box feels smaller than my past few pairs of glycerins. The shoe itself is comfortable but my toes feel more cramped than previous versions.

Runs wide, but feels supportive otherwise

I got the elderberry color, which is really pretty in person. I ordered my normal size and they are TTS in legnth, but a little loose around the heel/collar of the shoe. They are pretty wide through the middle and narrower/TTS in the toe box. These have a lot of support without having a high arch that pushes up into the foot. I'm going to try these with thicker socks to see if that can solve the width issue, but if they stretch out, I'm not sure they will be great. Kind of on the fence for these, but giving 4 stars for the construction and overall support. (For reference, I have a very true medium width foot, not narrow.)

Great for Insertional Achilles Tendonitis

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have Insertional Achilles Tendonitis and have been working with a physical therapist for months. I tried Hokas, New Balance, Asics, etc in all kinds of sizes and models. I even bought and returned the Brooks Adrenaline GTS. Finally, I have found the shoe that helps me continue to do physical therapy and walk during the day. Glycerin 23 has the stability and arch support I need but also has extreme cushioning for my heel bone. They are holding up well for how much I wear them. I also had to size up from a seven to an eight. They run short and must run small because I actually have a narrow foot. My advice is to go to a store and try on all the sizes/models. I do hope they offer more colors in this shoe in the future.
