Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 Trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking ultra-soft cushioning for long distances. Their key benefit is the premium, nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED cushioning that provides plush landings and responsive toe-offs, ensuring comfort stride after stride. A potential caveat is that their plush cushioning might feel less responsive for runners who prefer a firmer, faster feel.

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Glycerin 23?

The main benefit is its ultra-soft, premium cushioning provided by nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED technology, offering plush comfort and smooth transitions for long-distance running.

Who is the target user for the Glycerin 23?

It is designed for adult female runners who prefer a neutral ride and prioritize maximum cushioning for road running, especially for training and long distances.

How do I clean my Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers?

Clean with a soft brush for loose dirt. Use mild soap and cold water with a damp cloth or sponge for tougher stains. Avoid machine washing and air dry away from direct heat.

What is the weight of the Glycerin 23?

The weight of the women's Glycerin 23 is approximately 269 grams.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

The Glycerin 23 is best suited for road running due to its smooth outsole and cushioning. Trail running typically requires shoes with more aggressive tread and protection.

How long will the cushioning last?

The durability of the cushioning is generally good for 300-500 miles, depending on running style, surface, and frequency. Replace the shoes when you notice a significant decrease in comfort or support.

Troubleshooting

Unusual squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more runs. If it persists, ensure the insoles are properly seated or consult a running shoe specialist.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are tying a secure knot. Consider using a double knot or trying different lacing techniques designed for better hold.

Discomfort during runs

Verify you have the correct size and fit. Ensure the shoes are adequately broken in. If discomfort persists, consider consulting a running specialist to check your gait and shoe suitability.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While the cushioning is durable, its responsiveness may decrease after extensive use (typically 300-500 miles). Consider replacing the shoes when cushioning feels significantly diminished or performance declines.
