Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is a premium stability trainer designed for adult male runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and reliable support during road training sessions. Featuring nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned technology, these trainers offer a soft yet stable ride that helps manage pronation, though the high-cushion platform may feel slightly bulky for runners who prefer a minimalist, lightweight racing shoe.

FAQs

What does GTS stand for in this model?

GTS stands for 'Go-To Support,' which is Brooks' signature technology designed to keep excess movement in check to protect your knees.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

These are designed specifically for road use. The outsole and upper are not optimized for the sharp rocks and uneven surfaces found on trails.

How long should these trainers last?

Typically, road trainers last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you frequent.

Does the DNA Tuned cushioning lose its bounce over time?

Like all foam, it will compress over time. However, nitrogen-infused technology is designed to retain its structure and responsiveness longer than traditional EVA foams.

Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?

Yes, the provided insoles are removable, making them compatible with most custom or aftermarket orthotic inserts.

What is the weight of this specific shoe?

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 weighs 277.8 grams, balancing substantial cushioning with a lightweight feel.

Troubleshooting

Foot feels too tight or experiences pressure points

Adjust the lacing technique to a 'runner's loop' or use a lacing pattern that avoids the specific area of pressure.

Excessive dirt buildup on the mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dried mud or debris once it has fully hardened, then follow with a damp cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional impact absorption for joint protection

  • Highly breathable upper material suitable for warm weather
  • Durable construction designed for high-mileage road training
  • Consistent and reliable cushioning feel

Cons

  • Not intended for technical trail or off-road terrain
  • May feel too substantial for speed-focused interval workouts
  • Higher stack height may reduce ground feel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest lifespan for your Brooks Glycerin GTS 23, consider the following:

  • Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few shorter runs to allow the midsole foam to settle to your specific foot pressure points.
  • Surface Suitability: Stick to paved roads, asphalt, or concrete paths to maintain the integrity of the outsole traction pattern.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the internal adhesives and cushioning structure.
  • Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Direct sunlight and heat sources like radiators can cause the foam to warp or harden prematurely.
