Love these shoes
Was a big fan of the Ghost series, started getting more serious into running and going longer distances and these couldn’t be any better! Awesome fit, tons of cushion and so far holding up great on these long runs (15-18 mile runs) love these shoes and would definitely recommend. Run a little narrow in my opinion so recommend going Wide (I did and its a perfect fit)

Runs Small in all areas.
I wear a regular size 12 in most shoes, have to have wide in some brands, I got the 12 wide in these and not only were they not wide enough, my big toe felt like it was rubbing the end of the shoe. It felt like my foot was going to bust out of the sides.

Disappointing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fits about 3/4-size short and feels firmer than it should.

Excellent running shoes!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent running shoes! They provide the right support and comfort at the right points. You don’t even feel them on, it’s like you’re running on air.

Glycerin 23s surpass all previous Glycerin models
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are, by far, the best Glycerins I have ever worn!
It surpasses all previous models, for sure.
Thank you, Brooks, for evolving and making better and better your running products - I appreciate it so much!

Love this shoe...
Much better than the 22. I even find myself reaching for this one over the Glycerin Max 2. Fits very comfortably and feels great underfoot. Just a great all around shoe for easy runs to something with a little bit of tempo. Buy it. You will not regret it.

Why You’ll Love This Shoe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Glycerin 23 isn't just a running shoe; it’s a masterclass in "plush." If you’re looking for a ride that feels like a premium mattress but moves like a high-end sports sedan, Brooks has officially hit the sweet spot with this iteration.
If you are coming off a long shift on your feet or heading out for a grueling 15-miler, the Glycerin 23 acts as a shock absorber for your entire body. It’s the shoe that makes you forget you’re wearing shoes. It’s reliable, luxurious, and—honestly—just plain fun to bounce around in.
The Verdict: The Glycerin 23 is the ultimate "no-compromise" trainer. It’s soft enough to save your knees but responsive enough to keep your pace from dragging.
