Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 Trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a supremely cushioned and comfortable experience, particularly for long runs and training. Their key benefit is the plush, nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned Midsole that offers soft landings and energetic toe-offs. A potential caveat for some users might be the standard 8mm drop, which differs from lower-drop running shoes.

FAQs

Are the Brooks Glycerin 23 suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Glycerin 23 is an excellent choice for marathon running due to its superior cushioning and comfort, which help reduce fatigue over long distances.

What type of runner is the Glycerin 23 best suited for?

These trainers are best suited for neutral runners who prioritize plush cushioning and comfort, especially for training runs, long runs, and everyday mileage.

How do I clean my Glycerin 23 trainers?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the drop on the Brooks Glycerin 23?

The Brooks Glycerin 23 has an 8mm drop, which is considered a moderate drop.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

The Glycerin 23 is primarily designed for road running. While the durable outsole offers good grip, it is not optimized for technical trail terrain. They may be suitable for very light, groomed trails.

How does the knit upper contribute to performance?

The Triple Jacquard Warp Knit Upper provides a breathable and accommodating fit. It allows cool air to circulate and warm air to escape, helping to regulate foot temperature and enhance comfort during runs.

What is the main difference from the previous Glycerin model?

The Glycerin 23 features updated DNA LOFT v3 cushioning for even softer comfort and a renewed engineered mesh upper for a more secure and ventilated fit. The outsole has also been improved for greater durability and smoother transitions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces, ensuring the midfoot is not overly constricted. Try different lacing techniques for a customized fit. Ensure the size is correct; exchanges may be necessary if the size is inaccurate.

Slipping sensation during runs

Check lacing tightness to ensure the midfoot is secured. Ensure the socks used are appropriate for running and provide adequate grip. Verify the outsole is clean and free from excessive mud or debris.

Reduced cushioning after extended use

While the cushioning is designed for durability, it may naturally compress over many miles. Consider if the shoe has reached its expected lifespan for optimal performance.

Upper feels warm or lacks breathability

Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly, obstructing airflow. Clean the upper gently to remove any dirt that might be blocking the knit's pores. Consider using moisture-wicking socks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for comfort on long runs.
  • Highly breathable upper keeps feet cool.
  • Secure and stable fit due to lacing system and padding.
  • Durable outsole ensures longevity and reliable traction.
  • Smooth transitions from landing to toe-off.

Cons

  • 8mm drop may not suit runners preferring zero or low-drop shoes.
  • Premium cushioning might feel too soft for very lightweight runners seeking a more responsive feel.
  • The knit upper, while breathable, may offer less structure than some traditional mesh uppers.
  • Primarily designed for neutral runners; may not offer sufficient support for severe overpronation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they are the correct size for a comfortable fit before your first run. Adjust lacing to your preference for a secure midfoot lockdown.

Compatibility: Designed for neutral runners. Suitable for road running, treadmill use, and light trail running. They pair well with standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight). Do not use a tumble dryer.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods.
