FAQs

What is the main benefit of the 'GTS' in Glycerin GTS 23?

The 'GTS' stands for 'Go-To Support'. It indicates that these shoes include Brooks' GuideRails technology, which helps to keep excess knee movement in check and provides holistic support when needed.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Yes, the high cushioning and structured support make the Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 an excellent choice for marathon runners, especially for training runs and for those who prioritize comfort and impact protection over a minimalist feel.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

These trainers are primarily designed for road running. While they may offer some traction on light gravel or well-maintained paths, they lack the aggressive tread and protection needed for technical or muddy trails.

How often should I replace my Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 trainers?

For most runners, it is recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 kilometers), or when you notice a significant decrease in cushioning and support, or signs of wear on the outsole and upper.

What is the heel drop of the Glycerin GTS 23?

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 has a heel drop of 8mm. This is considered a moderate heel drop, suitable for a wide range of runners.

How do I clean my Glycerin GTS 23 trainers?

Clean them using a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the shoe materials.

What kind of runner is this shoe best for?

This shoe is best for adult male runners looking for a highly cushioned and supportive shoe for everyday road running, long distances, and recovery runs. It's particularly beneficial for those who experience mild overpronation.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing, ensuring the asymmetrical system is comfortably snug without being constrictive. Consider wearing thinner socks or trying a half-size larger if the tightness persists.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

The midsole cushioning may have compressed. This is normal wear and tear. Consider replacing the shoes if the cushioning is no longer providing adequate comfort and support.

Slipping on wet surfaces.

The rubber sole is designed for road traction. While effective on dry surfaces, grip may be reduced on very wet or slick pavement. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Heel slippage.

Ensure the heel counter is properly engaged by lacing through the top eyelets and tying securely. The external heel counter is designed to prevent this, but fit is key.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for maximum comfort on long runs.
  • Integrated support system (GTS) helps manage overpronation.
  • Breathable upper material keeps feet cool.
  • Durable construction for everyday road running.
  • Secure and comfortable fit due to the lacing system and heel counter.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for road running; may not perform optimally on trails.
  • The high level of cushioning might feel less responsive for runners preferring a firmer feel.
  • Asymmetrical lacing might require adjustment for some foot shapes.
  • Heel drop (8mm) may not suit all running gaits.
  • Can be heavier than minimalist running shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup. Simply put them on and lace them up for a comfortable fit. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preference using the asymmetrical lacing system for optimal support.

Compatibility:

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is designed for road running. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks. While they offer some grip on light gravel or packed dirt paths, they are not designed for technical trails or muddy conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a clothes dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  4. Laces: Regularly check laces for wear and tear. Replace if frayed.
