Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 Trainers are designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and holistic joint support during their daily training sessions. By combining nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned midsole technology with the GuideRails support system, these shoes provide a plush, stable ride that helps protect the knees; however, the emphasis on high-stack cushioning may feel slightly less responsive to runners who prefer a firm, minimal ground-feel.

FAQs

What is the primary difference between the Glycerin and the Glycerin GTS?

The 'GTS' version features the integrated GuideRails support system, which is designed to provide extra stability for runners who experience excessive foot or knee rotation.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

Yes, the Glycerin GTS 23 is specifically engineered for high-mileage comfort, making it an excellent choice for long-distance training.

How often should I replace these running shoes?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.

Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?

The internal volume is generally accommodating for standard orthotics, but you should remove the factory-fitted insole before inserting your custom pair.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the midsole foam and the adhesive layers. Stick to hand cleaning with mild soap.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Loosen the lacing system, particularly across the midfoot area, and experiment with different lacing patterns like the window lacing technique.

Excessive movement within the shoe

Ensure you are using the final eyelet for a 'runner's loop' to lock the heel in place and prevent sliding.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact protection via nitrogen-infused cushioning
  • GuideRails system provides reliable knee support
  • Highly breathable upper material
  • Secure lockdown fit with traditional lacing
  • Durable outsole for consistent grip

Cons

  • May feel too soft for runners desiring high ground feedback
  • Higher stack height may affect lateral stability for trail use
  • Weight may be higher than performance racing shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wearing them for shorter walks or light jogs first allows the cushioning to adapt to your foot strike pattern.
  2. Lacing: Use the traditional lacing system to achieve a secure lockdown; ensure the laces are snug but not tight enough to restrict circulation across the top of the foot.
  3. Cleaning: Hand wash the shoes using a soft brush, mild soap, and cold water. Never machine wash or machine dry, as high heat can degrade the integrity of the nitrogen-infused midsole foam.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the upper material to fade and the midsole foam to harden over time.
