FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?

Yes, the integrated GuideRails technology provides structured support that helps maintain natural alignment, which is often beneficial for runners with flat feet.

Can I use these for marathon training?

Absolutely; the Glycerin GTS 23 is designed for high-mileage comfort and impact protection, making it a reliable choice for long training blocks.

How often should I replace these shoes?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Brooks trainers generally adhere to standard sizing, though it is recommended to account for foot swelling during long runs by ensuring adequate room in the toe box.

Is the upper material waterproof?

No, the upper is engineered for maximum breathability and airflow, meaning it is not waterproof.

What does GTS stand for?

GTS stands for Go-To Support, referring to the brand's proprietary stability technology included in the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing tension; use a runner's loop or skip the eyelets causing tension to improve fit.

Soles feeling slippery on wet surfaces

Ensure the tread is clear of debris or mud buildup; if the issue persists, the rubber may have picked up oils from the road which can be wiped off with a damp cloth.

Excessive foam compression after limited use

Ensure the shoes have 24-48 hours to dry and recover between intensive training sessions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent impact protection from nitrogen-infused foam
  • Supportive GuideRails keep feet naturally aligned
  • Durable outsole provides reliable road traction
  • Breathable construction prevents overheating

Cons

  • Structured design adds weight compared to speed-oriented shoes
  • Not intended for technical trail running
  • Higher profile may feel less responsive to ground feedback

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Glycerin GTS 23, it is recommended to rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to decompress between runs. For maintenance, remove surface dirt with a soft brush after use on dusty roads. If the uppers get muddy, hand-wash them using cool water and a mild detergent; avoid using a washing machine or dryer, as excessive heat can degrade the cushioning integrity and glue bonds. Always ensure you are wearing the correct size for your gait cycle, leaving approximately a thumb's width of space at the front to prevent toe discomfort during downhill segments.
