Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Glycerin 23 is a premium neutral trainer designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum comfort and fluid transitions during daily training and long-distance road miles. Featuring advanced nitrogen-infused cushioning, it provides a perfect balance of softness and responsiveness; however, runners seeking a lightweight racing flat may find the plush build slightly bulkier than minimalist alternatives.

FAQs
Is the Brooks Glycerin 23 suitable for flat feet?
This is a neutral shoe. While comfortable, those with severe overpronation may require an orthotic insole or a dedicated stability model.
Can I use these for treadmill running?
Yes, the cushioning and outsole traction are highly effective for treadmill belts as well as outdoor asphalt.
How long should these trainers last?
Typically, these shoes are rated for 300 to 500 miles depending on your weight, running surface, and individual running mechanics.
Does this shoe come in wide widths?
This specific guide covers the standard width model; please check local inventory for specific width variants.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the sock liner is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling excessive pressure on the top of the foot
Try an alternative lacing pattern, such as skipping the eyelet where the pressure is felt, to relieve tension.
Visible signs of wear on the outsole after few miles
Check your running form to ensure you aren't dragging your feet, and ensure you are only using these on recommended road surfaces.
Foam feeling compressed after a long run
The foam requires 24 hours of rest to recover its full structural integrity. Rotate with a second pair of shoes for daily training.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While these shoes offer immediate comfort, wear them for shorter 2-3 mile walks before committing to full marathon-length training runs.
- Lacing: Use the top eyelet (runner's loop) if you experience any heel slippage to ensure a secure, locked-in feel.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary; never place these shoes in a washing machine or dryer as the heat will degrade the foam integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the rubber and fabric materials from drying out or cracking.
