Glycerin 23 Running Shoe (Men)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome shoes. Somehow every year gets better. I even have people stop and ask me what brand they are because they look so comfortable. I would give them 10 stars if I could. I own 2 pairs currently because I find myself putting them on not just for running. Thank you Brooks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Brooks Glycerin 23 for both running and everyday walking, and the difference compared to my previous running shoes was immediate. The comfort stands out right away. After switching from my old pair, it honestly felt like I’d gone from heavy, stiff shoes to something that actually supports and cushions every step. Long walks and runs are noticeably easier on my legs. I’m currently working on improving my running form—midfoot strike, better posture, smoother stride—and these shoes have been very forgiving during that process. Even when my form isn’t perfect, they absorb impact well and reduce stress on my knees and lower quads. I’m not a high-level runner, just an old veteran putting in consistent miles and staying active throughout the day (often 10k–14k+ steps). These have held up extremely well for both running and all-day wear. The biggest benefit is that they make you want to move more. When a shoe is this comfortable, it removes a lot of the resistance to getting out and putting in the work. Only downside: they’ve raised the bar so much that my other shoes don’t feel nearly as good anymore. Overall, definitely worth it.
