Full details

These trainers are perfect for neutral runners seeking maximum impact protection on asphalt surfaces, though the 289.2g weight may be slightly heavier for those who prefer minimalist racing flats. Featuring advanced foam technology and specialized geometry, they offer a highly supportive ride for daily miles.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

Yes, the Glycerin Max 2 provides the cushioning and support required for long-distance road running.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are road-specific trainers. Using them on rugged trails may damage the outsole and provide inadequate grip.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Generally, running shoes like these should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Does this model offer arch support?

It is a neutral trainer designed for runners who do not require significant medial post or corrective arch support.

What is the weight of the shoe?

This model weighs 289.2 grams.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing tension, specifically using the window-lacing technique to relieve pressure on the midfoot.

Excessive movement or heel slippage

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to perform a runner's loop (lock lacing) to secure the heel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact protection via DNA Tuned foam
  • Smooth heel-to-toe transitions with GlideRoll technology
  • Durable construction suitable for high-mileage road training
  • Comfortable fit for neutral runners

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist or racing-specific trainers
  • Not intended for trail or uneven off-road terrain
  • May feel too bulky for speed-focused interval sessions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, verify your UK size (this model is an 8.5) and ensure you have roughly a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. Because these are performance trainers, they perform best when worn with synthetic or wool-blend running socks to manage moisture. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the foam properties. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth after runs, remove the insoles to air out, and let them dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
