Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is a premium supportive trainer designed for adult runners who prioritize soft, nitrogen-infused cushioning and stability during their daily miles. It excels at delivering smooth heel-to-toe transitions through its integrated GuideRails system, though its 308g weight may feel slightly substantial for those seeking a pure racing flat.

FAQs

What does the GTS stand for in Glycerin GTS 23?

What is the heel-to-toe drop of this shoe?

Is this shoe suitable for long-distance marathon training?

Yes, its focus on cushioning and stability makes it an excellent choice for high-mileage marathon training blocks.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the midsole. Always hand wash with mild soap and water.

How does the fit compare to previous Glycerin models?

The triple jacquard warp knit upper offers a more accommodating and breathable fit compared to previous iterations.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure while maintaining lockdown.

Excessive heat build-up inside the shoe

Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking technical socks rather than cotton, which traps heat.

Outsole slipping on wet surfaces

Check the tread for embedded debris like stones or pebbles which can reduce contact surface area.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional plush cushioning from nitrogen-infused foam
  • Supportive GuideRails technology stabilizes stride
  • High breathability due to warp knit construction
  • Smooth and consistent heel-to-toe transition
  • Durable outsole provides reliable long-term traction

Cons

  • Heavier than lightweight racing trainers at 308g

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Glycerin GTS 23, perform a proper break-in period of 20-30 miles to allow the foam to adapt to your foot strike. For compatibility, these are designed for road and paved track surfaces.

Care Instructions:

  1. Wipe clean with a damp cloth after running in muddy or dusty conditions.
  2. Air dry naturally in a cool area; never place shoes in a dryer or near direct heat sources which can degrade the midsole foam.
  3. Remove the sockliner to dry separately if the shoes become soaked.
  4. Replace the trainers every 300-500 miles to maintain the structural integrity of the cushioning system.
