FAQs

Who is the Brooks Glycerin 23 designed for?

The Brooks Glycerin 23 is designed for adult runners, particularly females, who prioritize maximum cushioning and a plush ride, making them ideal for road running and long distances.

What makes the cushioning in the Glycerin 23 special?

The Glycerin 23 features tuned DNA LOFT cushioning that provides a soft yet responsive feel, offering plush landings and comfortable toe-offs.

Is this shoe suitable for marathon training?

Yes, the high level of cushioning makes it an excellent choice for marathon training, helping to reduce impact and fatigue over long mileage.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

These shoes are primarily designed for road running. While they can handle light, well-maintained trails, they lack the aggressive tread and protection typically found in dedicated trail running shoes.

How do I clean my Glycerin 23 shoes?

Clean them with a soft brush or damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, and let them air dry naturally away from heat.

What is the main difference between Glycerin 23 and Glycerin GTS 23?

The Glycerin GTS 23 offers GuideRails support for runners who need stability, while the standard Glycerin 23 focuses purely on neutral cushioning.

How should the asymmetrical lacing system fit?

The asymmetrical lacing system is designed to follow the natural contour of your foot for a secure, personalized fit. It should feel snug without being restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the asymmetrical lacing system. Try different lacing patterns or ensure the laces are tied securely but not overly tight. Experiment with loosening or tightening specific eyelets.

Discomfort in the arch area

This could be due to the shoe's support level or your foot's natural arch. Consider trying different sock thicknesses or consult with a running specialist about potential orthotic inserts if persistent.

Reduced cushioning after significant use

The midsole cushioning may naturally degrade over hundreds of miles. If you notice a significant loss of shock absorption, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The outsole is optimized for dry to moderately wet road conditions. For very wet or slippery surfaces, exercise caution or consider shoes with a more aggressive tread pattern if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort
  • Breathable upper material for improved ventilation
  • Secure and adaptable fit through asymmetrical lacing
  • Smooth transition from heel to toe
  • Durable construction for extended use

Cons

  • May require some adjustment to the lacing for a perfect fit
  • Primarily designed for road running, less ideal for trails
  • Can be on the softer side, which might not suit runners seeking a firmer feel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These running shoes require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with most athletic socks. To care for your Brooks Glycerin 23 shoes, we recommend the following:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt and mud with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
  2. Drying: Never machine wash or tumble dry your shoes. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
  4. Usage: While designed for road running, avoid using them for activities that could excessively scuff or damage the outsole, such as trail running or court sports.
