Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 Trainers are designed for adult male runners seeking premium cushioning and comfort for training and long runs. They offer plush landings and responsive toe-offs thanks to their nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned Midsole. A key caveat is their weight (297g), which might be a consideration for speed-focused runners. Key features include superior cushioning, a breathable knit upper, and a durable outsole.

FAQs

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

The Glycerin 23 is ideal for neutral runners seeking maximum cushioning for daily training, long runs, and recovery efforts. It's particularly beneficial for those who prioritize comfort and joint protection.

How does the DNA Tuned Midsole provide cushioning?

The midsole uses nitrogen-infused cushioning with dual-size cells. Larger cells in the heel provide plush landings, while additional foam in the forefoot enhances propulsion, offering a balance of softness and responsiveness.

Is the knit upper durable?

Yes, the Triple Jacquard Warp Knit Upper is designed for durability while maintaining high levels of breathability and a soft feel against the foot.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Glycerin 23?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm.

Can I wear these shoes for speedwork or racing?

While they offer a responsive toe-off, their primary design is for comfort and cushioning. For pure speedwork or racing where minimal weight is critical, other models might be more suitable. However, they can be used for tempo runs.

How do I clean my Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What is the weight of the Brooks Glycerin 23?

The weight is approximately 297g for a men's size.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Glycerin 23 offers an accommodating fit due to its engineered mesh upper. While specific width options are not detailed here, the flexible nature of the upper generally suits a range of foot shapes.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly tight fit. If still uncomfortable, consider if a different size or width is needed.

Slight rubbing or irritation on heel/ankle

Ensure the laces are properly secured to utilize the padded collar and tongue effectively. Wear appropriate running socks. If irritation persists, check for loose threads or debris inside the shoe.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While the DNA Tuned Midsole is durable, cushioning can naturally degrade with very high mileage. Ensure you are not exceeding the recommended lifespan for running shoes (typically 300-500 miles).

Poor grip on wet surfaces

While the outsole offers good traction, extremely wet or slick surfaces can challenge any shoe. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris that could impede grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Exceptional cushioning for comfort on long runs.
Breathable knit upper keeps feet cool.
Secure and stable fit with traditional lacing.
Durable outsole provides reliable traction.
Reduces impact on joints.

Cons

Slightly heavier than some minimalist running shoes (297g).
May not be ideal for elite sprinters prioritizing minimal weight.
The cushioning might feel too soft for runners who prefer a firmer ride.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Lacing: Utilize the traditional lacing system to achieve a secure and personalized fit. Adjust tightness from the toe box to the ankle to ensure your midfoot is locked in without being constricting.
Insoles: The shoe comes with a standard insole. If you use custom orthotics, ensure they fit comfortably within the shoe's existing structure. The fit should remain snug but not tight.

Compatibility:

Surfaces: The durable rubber outsole is designed for excellent grip and traction on road surfaces, treadmills, and light trails.
Foot Type: Suitable for neutral pronation, offering support without correction.

Care:

Cleaning: To clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the upper and midsole. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
Washing Machine: It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the cushioning and structural integrity of the shoe.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
