Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a plush, comfortable, and stable experience on the road, especially for training and long runs. Their key benefit is the ultra-soft, nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED cushioning that provides both soft landings and responsive toe-offs. A potential caveat for some users might be the neutral ride, which may not offer sufficient support for severe overpronators.

FAQs

Are the Brooks Glycerin 23 suitable for beginners?

Yes, the Glycerin 23's plush cushioning and neutral ride make them a comfortable option for beginner runners, especially if they prioritize comfort and impact absorption.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of the Glycerin 23?

The heel-to-toe drop is 8mm, which is a moderate drop that offers a balanced feel for most runners.

How do I know if the neutral ride is right for me?

A neutral ride is generally suitable for runners who have a relatively even foot strike and do not experience excessive inward rolling (overpronation) or outward rolling (supination) of their foot.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

No, the Glycerin 23 is specifically designed for road running. The outsole and upper are not optimized for the varied terrain and conditions found on trails.

How does the DNA TUNED cushioning differ from other Brooks cushioning?

DNA TUNED cushioning is a nitrogen-infused technology that provides a uniquely soft and responsive feel, adapting to your specific stride for personalized comfort and energy return.

What is the weight of the Brooks Glycerin 23?

The women's Glycerin 23 weighs 269g, offering a lightweight feel designed to minimize fatigue on longer runs.

How often should I replace my Glycerin 23 trainers?

It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a decrease in cushioning and support.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. If the fit is fundamentally incorrect, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.

Reduced cushioning effect over time.

While the DNA TUNED cushioning is durable, its responsiveness may naturally decrease with very high mileage. This is a sign to consider replacing your shoes. Ensure the shoes are clean, as dirt can sometimes affect the feel.

Slipping on wet surfaces.

The outsole is designed for road surfaces. On extremely wet or slick surfaces, grip may be reduced. Exercise caution and consider your environment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for ultimate comfort on long runs.
  • Breathable and soft engineered mesh upper for a pleasant feel.
  • Stable transitions thanks to the wide platform design.
  • Durable outsole for extended use.
  • Lightweight design helps reduce fatigue.

Cons

  • Neutral ride may not suit runners needing pronation support.
  • Specific colorway (Green) and size (UK 4) may have limited availability.
  • While durable, extreme wear conditions could still impact lifespan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Brooks Glycerin 23 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. No specific setup is required; simply ensure they fit comfortably before your first run.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for neutral runners and are best suited for road running. They are compatible with various running socks.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Glycerin 23s:

  1. Cleaning: After runs, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  2. Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during the drying process.
  3. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
