Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is a premium road trainer designed for adult runners who prioritize structured support and high-level cushioning. By utilizing nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned technology, these trainers provide a stable and exceptionally soft ride, making them ideal for high-mileage road training; however, the emphasis on stability and plush cushioning results in a slightly heavier profile compared to minimalist racing shoes.

FAQs

What is the primary difference between the Glycerin and Glycerin GTS?

The GTS model includes Go-To Support, which provides additional stability features for runners who need guidance, while the standard Glycerin is a neutral trainer.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are designed specifically for road training; while they can handle light, groomed paths, the tread is optimized for tarmac and concrete.

How long should these trainers last?

Typically, these trainers are rated for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your weight, surface, and running style.

Is the upper material stretchy?

The technical mesh is designed to be secure but breathable, offering enough structure to lock the foot in place while allowing for natural swelling during runs.

Does this model come in wide widths?

Brooks offers various widths for many of their series; please check the specific product listing to see if your required width is available.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points around the midfoot

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to 'runner's loop' or looser tension across the midfoot area.

Shoe feels damp after short runs

Ensure the socks used are moisture-wicking synthetic or wool blends rather than cotton.

Uneven wear on the outsole

This is often a sign of natural gait patterns, but consult a professional gait analysis if wear is excessive or causing discomfort.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Breathable upper keeps feet comfortable in various temperatures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Glycerin GTS 23, proper care is essential. When you first receive the shoes, ensure a proper fit by allowing for a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Care Instructions:

  1. Keep shoes clean by wiping them with a damp cloth and mild soap; do not submerge them in water.
  2. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the DNA Tuned foam and adhesive bonds.
  3. Air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight.
  4. Rotate your trainers with another pair if training daily to allow the foam to decompress and the materials to dry out completely between sessions.
