FAQs
Is the Glycerin 23 suitable for flat feet?
Yes, the Glycerin 23 offers balanced support and stable transitions, which generally provide a comfortable base for runners with flatter arches.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Absolutely. The premium cushioning is specifically designed to handle the high mileage required for marathon preparation.
What does the 8mm drop mean?
The 8mm drop represents the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot. This moderate drop encourages a natural transition for most runners.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Brooks Glycerin 23 is designed for breathability. They are not waterproof and may absorb water in heavy rain.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during runs.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points during runs
Adjust the lace tension. The Glycerin 23 has a structured upper, so loosening the laces over the midfoot often relieves tightness.
Heel slippage
Try using the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe for a 'runner's loop' or heel lock lacing technique to secure the ankle.
Foam feels firmer than expected
New foam requires a brief break-in period. Run for 20-30 miles to allow the midsole materials to fully compress and soften.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter walks before committing to long runs to allow the cushioning to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Remove dirt after use by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never machine wash or tumble dry, as heat damages the foam compounds.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and foam hardening.
- Replacement: Consider replacing your shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running frequency and wear pattern.
