Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking maximum cushioning and a plush ride for daily mileage, recovery sessions, or walking. By utilizing GlideRoll Rocker technology, these shoes prioritize smooth transitions from heel to toe, though runners looking for a lightweight speed shoe may find the 320.3g weight slightly substantial for high-intensity racing.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for speed work?
The Glycerin Max 2 is designed for comfort and long runs. While you can use them for various runs, they are not specifically engineered for high-intensity speed intervals.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
These trainers feature a 6mm drop.
Can I use these for walking?
Yes, the plush cushioning and GlideRoll Rocker make these excellent trainers for walking and standing for long periods.
How do I determine if I have the right size?
You should have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot swelling during exercise.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles depending on your running surface and personal gait.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points near the instep
Try adjusting the lacing technique to a 'window lacing' or 'heel lock' style to relieve pressure while maintaining a secure fit.
Excessive debris inside the shoe
Ensure the heel collar is flush against the ankle and consider wearing high-performance running socks that cover the heel tab.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, ensure you have selected your correct UK foot size, as the Glycerin Max 2 features a snug fit profile. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the midsole cushioning material. If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with dry newspaper to absorb moisture naturally. Clean the exterior using a soft-bristle brush and mild soap to avoid damaging the technical mesh upper.
