FAQs

Who are the Brooks Glycerin 23 Trainers designed for?

These trainers are ideal for adult female runners looking for maximum cushioning and comfort, especially for daily training and long-distance running. They are suitable for neutral runners.

What is the main difference in the Glycerin 23 compared to previous models?

The Glycerin 23 features updated DNA LOFT v3 cushioning for an even softer feel and a renewed engineered mesh upper for improved fit and ventilation.

Can I use these trainers for speedwork or races?

While they offer excellent comfort, the Glycerin 23 is primarily designed for training and long runs due to its plush cushioning. For faster paces or races, you might consider a lighter, more responsive shoe.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart and consider your previous Brooks shoe sizes. It's recommended to have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions or light moisture.

What is the expected lifespan of the Brooks Glycerin 23?

With proper care and regular use for running, the shoes are typically expected to last between 300 to 500 miles. This can vary based on running surface, gait, and weight.

Can I wear these trainers for gym workouts?

Yes, the cushioning and support make them comfortable for general gym activities, but they are optimized for running. For specific training like heavy weightlifting, a more stable shoe might be preferred.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or restrictive.

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if a different lacing technique might help.

Discomfort or rubbing in specific areas.

Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow your feet to adapt. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.

Cushioning feels less responsive over time.

Ensure the shoes are not excessively dirty, as debris can affect cushioning. While DNA LOFT v3 is durable, cushioning naturally degrades with very high mileage. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles of use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for soft landings.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool and comfortable.
  • Smooth ride promotes efficient running.
  • Durable outsole for extended wear.
  • Well-suited for high mileage and long runs.

Cons

  • May be too soft for runners preferring a firmer feel.
  • Specific fit might not suit all foot shapes.
  • Pink colorway might not appeal to everyone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. No specific setup is required. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal performance and comfort.

Compatibility: Designed for running on roads, treadmills, and light trails. They are suitable for neutral runners and those who may benefit from slight stability due to their cushioned nature.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cold water with a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources such as radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
