Glycerin max review 5 star
These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. They are extremely comfortable and cushion the feet perfectly, like a soft pillow. Truly ideal for those of us who work standing up all day and often end up with very tired feet.
100% recommended.

Terrible blisters!
These are the worst running shoes ever! There’s a reason they are on sale. Purchased them full price and after doing maybe 5+ runs and many walks I ended Up with horrible blisters on the inside of my foot. I went to a local running store and they told me they stopped selling them because they were so bad

Could be a great recovery shoe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: Super comfy, very smooshy- if this is what you are looking for- this shoe is great
Con's: For me personally, the rocker was too exaggerated, and the shoe was very high-
Normally wear: Ghost
I have been a runner my entire life, and have consistently used brooks for 18years. A few months ago, developed compartment syndrome from overtraining for a mountain summit. I usually wear Ghosts and Launch... but thought I would try something a little softer to help ease the discomfort. I did not actually run in these, because I could tell right away they were not going to work for me for training. But I was tempted to keep them as a recovery shoe! They are amazingly smooshy and comfortable.
I think this shoe would be great for nurses and others on their feet all day though, and runners that are comfortable with this ultra stacked sole.

Cushion but not for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] On a heavier side which for me making difficult to run in them for long time. Also a bit narrowing on top that I feel like hitting my toes with every step, even I already size up half size. Was hoping to take them on my next race but after the run today, not so sure if I should keep or return these!

Best shoe for cushioning and comfort on any run.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being a heavier weight runner, I’m always looking for all the cushioning that I can get in a good shoe. The glycerin max is incredible for performance and cushioning. I literally feel like I’m flying in these shoes because I feel so lightweight.
