FAQs

What type of runner is the Brooks Glycerin 23 best for?

The Glycerin 23 is ideal for neutral runners who want high cushioning for everyday road running and consistent comfort over distance.

How much cushioning does this shoe offer?

It offers a high level of cushioning designed to provide a plush and protective feel for impact absorption.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

These trainers are specifically designed for road running. Their outsole is optimized for pavement and they may not provide adequate grip or protection on uneven trail surfaces.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The shoe has an 8mm heel drop, which promotes smooth transitions from heel strike to toe-off.

How should I clean my Glycerin 23 trainers?

Gently clean with a soft brush for loose dirt, and use a mild detergent with cool water and a soft cloth for deeper cleaning. Avoid machine washing.

What is the warranty period for Brooks shoes?

Brooks typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official Brooks Running website or your retailer for specific warranty details.

Is this shoe suitable for runners who need stability?

The Glycerin 23 is a neutral shoe, meaning it does not incorporate specific stability features. Runners requiring more support might consider the Brooks Glycerin GTS models.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or blisters

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Consider trying different sock types or thicknesses. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning may naturally compress after extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing shoes after approximately 300-500 miles.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The rubber sole provides traction on dry to slightly damp roads, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean of debris.

  • May feel less responsive for speed work

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Brooks Glycerin 23 comes ready to wear. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for road running. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild detergent and cool water with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
