Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 is designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum comfort and a plush, balanced ride during road training sessions. These trainers provide a seamless, cushioned experience thanks to innovative nitrogen-infused technology, making them an ideal choice for daily mileage and long-distance runs. While they excel in comfort and transition, users seeking a lightweight racing shoe may find their build slightly more substantial at 300.5 grams.

FAQs

Are the Glycerin 23 shoes suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit of the Glycerin 23 is accommodating for most foot shapes, though it is recommended to test the fit in person as sizing can vary by individual foot volume.

Can I use these for trail running?

The Glycerin 23 is optimized for road and pavement surfaces; it does not have the aggressive lug pattern needed for loose or technical trail terrain.

How often should I replace these trainers?

Generally, running shoes like the Glycerin 23 should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and the surfaces you cover.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The individual shoe weighs approximately 300.5 grams.

Is the upper material waterproof?

No, the upper is designed for breathability. It will keep feet cool, but it is not waterproof and may absorb water during heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Heel slipping while running

Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique through the top eyelet to secure the heel.

Cushioning feels stiff

Foam often requires a short break-in period of 20-30 miles to fully adapt to your weight and stride.

Accumulation of debris inside

Remove the insole after muddy runs, shake out debris, and wipe down the interior with a dry cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior underfoot comfort for long-distance training
  • Highly effective nitrogen-infused cushioning system
  • Smooth transition geometry for efficient strides
  • Durable construction suitable for high-mileage road running

Cons

  • Weight of 300.5g may feel heavy for speed work
  • Not intended for technical trail running or off-road use
  • Less ground feel due to the maximalist cushioning

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Glycerin 23s, ensure you select your correct UK size and wear appropriate technical socks for moisture management. The shoes arrive ready to run out of the box; however, you may want to re-lace the top eyelets if you prefer a tighter lockdown at the ankle. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the foam's integrity. Instead, clean the upper with a soft brush and mild soap, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators.
