Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is designed for male runners seeking a premium blend of structured stability and plush, nitrogen-infused cushioning for daily training. Its standout feature is the intelligent GuideRails support system, which promotes natural alignment by limiting excessive heel movement, though the shoe's focus on maximum comfort may feel slightly heavier than dedicated speed-racing flats.

FAQs

Is the Glycerin GTS 23 suitable for trail running?

These shoes are designed primarily for road running and paved surfaces. The outsole may not provide sufficient grip on loose or technical trail terrain.

How long should the cushioning last?

Typically, the cushioning in the Glycerin series maintains its performance for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running gait and surface types.

Does this shoe provide neutral or stability support?

This is a stability-focused shoe that utilizes the GuideRails system to support runners who need help with alignment.

Can I remove the insoles to use custom orthotics?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.

What does the GTS stand for?

GTS stands for Go-To Support, referring to the brand's signature stability technology integrated into the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the arch area

Ensure the shoe is tied securely without overtightening, as the GuideRails require a snug fit to function correctly.

Mesh upper accumulating dirt

Allow mud to dry, then use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris before wiping down with a damp cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent support for runners needing stability
  • Highly responsive nitrogen-infused cushioning
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool
  • Durable outsole suitable for high-mileage road running

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist or speed-focused models
  • Targeted specifically for road surfaces rather than trail
  • Structured design may feel bulky for some minimalist runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Ensure you are using the correct UK sizing, as the Glycerin GTS 23 has a structured, performance-oriented fit. For optimal care, avoid putting the trainers in a washing machine, as this can break down the adhesives and the integrity of the foam cushioning. Instead, wipe the mesh upper with a soft cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked after a run in the rain, remove the insole and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture slowly. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the midsole from warping.
