Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking ultimate comfort and support on the road, especially for long distances. Their key benefit is the ultra-soft, plush cushioning provided by nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED technology, ensuring smooth landings and powerful take-offs. A potential caveat is their neutral ride, making them less suitable for runners requiring significant stability control. This guide covers their premium features, performance, setup, and care.

FAQs

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

The Glycerin 23 is best for adult runners with a neutral gait who prioritize plush cushioning and comfort, especially for road running, training, and long distances.

How do I clean my Glycerin 23 trainers?

Clean them using a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Always air dry them away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing.

What is the heel-to-toe drop on these shoes?

The Brooks Glycerin 23 has a heel-to-toe drop of 8mm.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the Glycerin 23 is ideal for marathon running and long-distance training due to its superior cushioning and comfort.

What does 'Neutral Ride' mean?

A 'Neutral Ride' indicates that the shoe is designed for runners whose feet and ankles don't roll inward excessively (overpronate) or outward excessively (supinate). It offers balanced cushioning without specific support features for pronation control.

What is the weight of the Glycerin 23?

The women's Glycerin 23 weighs approximately 269g.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

These trainers are designed primarily for road running. While they might handle very light, groomed trails, they are not optimized for technical terrain and lack the protective features of trail-specific shoes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. Break them in gradually with shorter runs before attempting long distances.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

This is a natural part of wear. Ensure the shoes are kept clean and dry. If significant wear is visible on the outsole or midsole, it may be time to consider a new pair.

Feet feel hot or sweaty during runs

The engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking running socks. If the issue persists, try running in cooler conditions or consider a product with enhanced ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional plush cushioning for ultimate comfort on long runs.
  • Breathable and soft engineered mesh upper enhances foot comfort.
  • Stable transitions due to the wide platform design.
  • Durable outsole offers good longevity for frequent use.
  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue.

Cons

  • Primarily suited for neutral runners; may not offer enough support for overpronators.
  • Specific colorway and size availability may vary.
  • The focus on plushness might feel less responsive for runners seeking a faster feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit; they are designed for a standard adult foot.

Compatibility: These trainers are best suited for neutral runners. They perform optimally on paved roads and other hard surfaces. While they can be used for casual wear, their design is focused on running performance.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Glycerin 23 trainers:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, gently brush off any loose dirt or mud. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  2. Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Stuff them with paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can degrade the materials.
  3. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
  4. Rotation: For heavy runners, consider rotating between multiple pairs of shoes to allow them to fully dry out and recover their cushioning between runs.
