Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers are designed for adult runners seeking a premium, cushioned experience for daily training or recovery runs. These shoes feature advanced nitrogen-infused cushioning and a supportive GuideRails system, offering a plush, stable ride that protects joints during high-mileage efforts; however, the emphasis on maximum comfort may feel slightly less responsive to runners looking for a lightweight, racing-focused shoe.

FAQs

Is the Brooks Glycerin 23 suitable for flat feet?

Yes, the GuideRails support system is designed to provide stability for various arch types, including those that pronate.

How many miles can I expect from these shoes?

Generally, running shoes last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface, gait, and weight.

Can I use these for speed workouts?

While they are comfortable, they are primarily built for comfort and distance; most runners prefer a lighter, firmer shoe for speed work.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the triple jacquard warp knit upper is designed for breathability, not water resistance.

Do I need to size up?

Brooks trainers generally run true to size, but we recommend trying them on with your typical running socks for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points around the midfoot

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve tension on the top of the foot.

Upper material showing signs of dirt

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before wiping with a damp cloth.

Sensation of slipping at the heel

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to create a 'runner's loop' or heel lock lacing for a more secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally soft and plush cushioning
  • Highly breathable upper material
  • Effective support for knee alignment
  • Comfortable fit for daily training
  • Durable outsole construction

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist or speed-oriented trainers
  • Less ground feel due to high stack height
  • May feel too soft for those preferring firm responsiveness

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your Brooks Glycerin 23 involves proper sizing and routine maintenance. Because these trainers utilize a soft warp knit upper, ensure you are wearing your preferred running socks when trying them on to account for natural foot swelling during exercise.

To prolong the life of the shoes:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away surface mud or dirt with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as high heat and heavy detergents can degrade the foam's integrity.
  • Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause the midsole foam to warp.
  • Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between two pairs of shoes to allow the foam to decompress and return to its original shape between uses.
