Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 Trainers are designed for adult runners who prioritize a plush, highly cushioned experience for their daily training or long-distance runs. By utilizing nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED cushioning, these trainers offer an excellent balance of impact absorption and energy return, though their focus on maximum comfort may feel less 'fast' to those preferring minimalist, lightweight racing flats.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?

The Glycerin 23 is designed with a stable geometry that accommodates a wide range of foot types, though runners needing extreme stability may prefer the GTS (Go-To-Support) version of the series.

Can I use these for marathon training?

Yes, they are excellent for high-mileage training due to the protective nitrogen-infused cushioning.

How long should these trainers last?

Typically, road running shoes last between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your weight, running surface, and individual gait.

Is the upper material waterproof?

The upper is engineered for breathability, meaning it is not waterproof and will allow water to pass through if stepped in puddles.

What is the main difference between Glycerin 23 and Glycerin GTS 23?

The GTS model includes additional GuideRails technology for runners who need extra support to limit excess movement, whereas the standard Glycerin 23 is a neutral shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Try the 'window lacing' technique to bypass the pressure point on the eyelets.

Heel slippage while running

Use the runner's loop (the extra eyelet at the top) to lock the heel in place more securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are true to size. Ensure there is about a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
  2. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few shorter runs to allow the foam and upper to fully adapt to your foot's mechanics.
  3. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after runs. Use lukewarm water and a mild detergent if needed. Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer, as high heat can degrade the cushioning foam.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material breakdown.
