Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers, follow these maintenance tips:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short walks before your first long run to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for stains; avoid putting them in the washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can degrade the cushioning materials.
- Drying: Air dry only. Never place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the midsole foam and damage the structural integrity of the upper.
- Rotation: If training heavily, rotate these with another pair of shoes to allow the foam to decompress and the moisture to evaporate fully between runs.
