Glycerin Flex Running Sneaker (Women)

I was suffering with knee and shin pain in a different Brooks shoe. These immediately felt better. Until about 2 hours of just walking during errands and I’m getting a blister on the outside of my toe. Although I wear 8N in shoes, the toe box cuts in sharply and is too narrow. Disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love these but I'm afraid they have to go back. The more I wear them, the more my feet are left sore and blistered. I do love how light and responsive they are during HIIT classes but I can't walk or run without developing blisters. I find them lacking stability and a bit narrow in the toebox.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a devoted fan of the Glycerin Stealthfit because the top of my feet are very sensitive. I was excited to try this new iteration that replaced the Stealthfit. Overall the Flex is a better sneaker than the Stealthfit in so many ways BUT the tongue. I can’t understand why it’s not attached. It takes me more time than it should to get this shoe on comfortably because I have to adjust the tongue several times. The seams on the edges of the tongue curl under so trying to get it to lay flat on the top of my foot is a challenge. I enjoy the Flex because I like a lot of foot feel on the road, but it’s still very cushy. But please Brooks attach the tongue, thin out the edges or even use the Stealthfit upper to improve it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was initially excited to try out these shoes. They were given as a gift. I walked in them 2-3 times to "break them in." Today I went for a run on roads and sidewalks and the whole outside part of my right foot hurt after from the rubbing/compression. They err on being too narrow, not just in the toe, but everywhere and the heel part rubs. (Also I could not fit my usually orthotic in there without it feeling like my foot was being pushed out) Today's run was without orthotics in fyi

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been loving these shoes! I use them for my long runs and they’ve been super comfortable, lightweight, supportive, and cushioned without feeling heavy. They keep my feet feeling great even on longer distances. They also match my style perfectly, so they’ve quickly become one of my favorites.
