FAQs

Are the Glycerin 23 shoes suitable for flat feet?

These are neutral shoes. If you have flat feet and require significant arch support, you may want to consult with a professional to see if an aftermarket orthotic is recommended.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While excellent for running, their high-cushion stack height may feel less stable for heavy weightlifting where a firm, flat base is preferred.

How many miles can I expect from these trainers?

Generally, running shoes last between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on.

Is the upper material waterproof?

No, the Glycerin 23 uses a breathable mesh material designed for ventilation rather than waterproofing.

What does the 8mm drop mean?

The drop refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot. An 8mm drop is a classic offset that helps provide balance for most running styles.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Try adjusting the lacing technique, such as using a window-lacing style to relieve pressure on the bridge of the foot.

Shoes are holding moisture after a run

Remove the insole and stuff the shoes with newspaper or a moisture-wicking cloth to draw out humidity overnight.

Outer sole shows premature wear

Check your running gait to see if you are dragging your feet; also ensure you are primarily using them on road surfaces rather than abrasive concrete or gravel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent long-run comfort due to high-quality cushioning
  • Reliable, neutral support for varied road workouts
  • Consistent and smooth energy return
  • Durable construction for high-mileage training

Cons

  • Heavier than specialized racing shoes
  • Not suitable for trail or uneven off-road terrain
  • Minimalist runners may find the cushioning too soft

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Glycerin 23, it is important to follow basic care guidelines.

Setup and Fit: Ensure you have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to allow for foot swelling during long runs.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Hand wash only using a soft brush, warm water, and mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the foam cushioning.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the breathable upper materials.
  4. Rotation: If running daily, consider alternating with another pair of shoes to allow the foam to decompress and the moisture to evaporate fully.
