FAQs

Who is the Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 for?

These trainers are ideal for adult male runners who need a high level of cushioning and structured support for everyday road running. They are particularly beneficial for those who overpronate or desire a stable, comfortable ride.

What is the main difference between Glycerin GTS and Glycerin?

The 'GTS' in Glycerin GTS stands for 'Go-To Support,' indicating it incorporates Brooks' GuideRails® technology for enhanced stability. The standard Glycerin typically offers neutral cushioning without this specific support system.

Can I use these shoes for marathon training?

Yes, the high cushioning and supportive features make them well-suited for marathon training on roads, providing comfort over long distances.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

No, the Glycerin GTS 23 is designed specifically for road running. The tread pattern and cushioning are optimized for paved surfaces, not the varied terrain of trails.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to Brooks' official sizing chart and measure your foot length. Consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models and individuals. The UK size 9 is specified for this variant.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 has an 8mm heel-to-toe drop.

How long should these shoes last?

Typically, running shoes like the Glycerin GTS 23 are expected to last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on running intensity, weight, and running surface. Regular inspection for wear is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the asymmetrical lacing. Try different lacing patterns or ensure the laces are evenly tightened across all eyelets.

Feet feel warm or sweaty.

Ensure socks are moisture-wicking. The engineered mesh provides breathability, but sock material also plays a role.

Reduced cushioning or support over time.

Running shoes have a lifespan; cushioning may degrade after 300-500 miles of use. Consider replacing them if performance noticeably declines.

Soles show excessive wear.

This can indicate running style or surface type. Ensure you are primarily using them on appropriate road surfaces. For significant wear, consult with a running store specialist.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for long-distance comfort.
  • Provides reliable support for neutral or overpronating runners.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet dry and comfortable.
  • Durable construction for everyday road use.
  • Secure and adaptable fit through asymmetrical lacing.

Cons

  • May be too soft for runners who prefer a firmer ride.
  • Designed primarily for road running; less suitable for trails or track.
  • The beige color may show dirt more easily than darker options.
  • Asymmetrical lacing might require adjustment for some foot shapes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have tied the laces to your preferred comfort level using the asymmetrical lacing system.

Compatibility: The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is designed for road running on paved surfaces. They are compatible with most standard athletic socks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning:
  • Remove excess dirt with a dry brush.
  • For stains, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Gently scrub the affected area.
  • Do NOT machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and structure.
  1. Drying:
  • Air dry the shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
  • You can stuff them with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  1. Storage:
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
