Brooks Glycerin 23 Shoes - White Green - UK 8.5

The main benefit is maximum comfort due to its advanced cushioning technology, making it ideal for long runs and everyday training.

These shoes are designed for adult male runners with a neutral foot strike who prioritize comfort and cushioning on road running surfaces.

An 8mm drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot. This is considered a moderate drop, suitable for many runners but potentially less so for those who prefer a zero-drop or very low-drop shoe.

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth or soft brush. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the shoe's materials and structure.

The Glycerin 23 is optimized for road running. While they might handle very light, well-maintained gravel paths, they are not designed for technical trails due to their cushioning and tread pattern.

The weight is approximately 300.5g, offering a good balance of cushioning without being excessively heavy.

With regular use and proper care, most running shoes like the Glycerin 23 typically last between 300 to 500 miles (approximately 480 to 800 kilometers) before their cushioning and support significantly degrade.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with your usual running socks. If discomfort persists after a few wears, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

The cushioning will naturally break in and may feel less 'new' after many miles. Ensure the shoes are clean and free of debris that could affect performance. Consider if it's time to replace them after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles).

This can be normal with high mileage or running on abrasive surfaces. Check your stride and consider if rotation with another pair of shoes could extend their life.
