FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for a wide foot?

The Glycerin 23 offers a precise fit, but individuals with wider feet may need to look for specific 'Wide' width versions of this model if standard sizes feel restrictive.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While excellent for running, the high cushioning is best suited for cardio. For heavy weightlifting, a firmer, flatter sole is generally recommended for stability.

How many miles do these shoes typically last?

Most runners find they get between 300 to 500 miles out of the Glycerin series, depending on weight, gait, and running surface.

Is this a stability shoe?

No, the Glycerin 23 is a neutral shoe. If you require extra support for overpronation, look at the Glycerin GTS (Go-To Support) series.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The Brooks Glycerin 23 weighs approximately 300.5 grams, providing a balance between durability and cushioning.

What surface is this shoe designed for?

These trainers are specifically designed for road running, providing optimal grip and shock absorption on hard, man-made surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the laces using a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly.

Visible dirt on the white mesh upper

Use a soft toothbrush and a mixture of water and mild detergent to spot clean the area, then air dry.

Feeling of premature foam compression

Ensure the shoes have sufficient rest periods between runs to allow the foam cells to rebound properly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional impact absorption for joint protection
  • Breathable upper design maintains comfort on hot days
  • Highly durable construction for daily training miles
  • Smooth transition feel during the gait cycle

  • Not intended for high-speed racing or track intervals

  • Limited to road usage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Brooks Glycerin 23 stays in peak condition, perform a quick visual inspection of the tread after wet runs. For cleaning, hand wash the trainers using mild soap and a soft brush; never machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can compromise the nitrogen-infused midsole foam. If the inner sole becomes damp, remove it and air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight. To maintain maximum performance, rotate your trainers with another pair if running more than four times per week, allowing the cushioning foam at least 24 hours to recover its shape.
