I've gone through 2 pair of Adrenalines in the past (no complaints), and I thought I would try the Glycerine for a more neutral fit. While it is definitely more neutral than the Adrenaline, I found the shoe to be way too stiff and not cushiony at all. When I ran in these, I found my feet "clopping" down on the ground, which has never happened to me with any other shoe. I am a midfoot runner, and I can see how someone with a hard heel strike might find this shoe tolerable, but I'm going to have to toss these aside. I'm planning on trying the Brooks Launch next.

I ordered these shoes for my college son. They were shipped directly to him in Charlottesville, Va. My son says the shoes are very comfortable for walking. Being a college student, he walks a lot. He is a big guy; 6'4", and weighing 250 lbs. He is an underpronater and these shoes really help correct it. Thanks, Zappos for your quick service and allowing me to shop with ease for someone else.

Brooks shoes seem to fit short and I had to go up 1 1/2 sizes to even get close to a good fit that gave me enough room in the toe box. The shoes were very stiff and I felt that I was slapping the ground with every stride. I have done a 3 mile run and a 4 mile run and I doubt I will do another. I was looking for an alternative to the NB 1063 and this was not it. The cushioning was also not what Brooks represented; very hard.

Feels great - Great service from Zappos and great shoe. Order 1/2 size larger. Feels great; lots of cushion. I am a walker and these sure helped with the sore legs and feet.

Excellent Shoe!
I am not a runner, but someone that needs a shoe with extra comfort for all day wear. These shoes are excellent! I use a larger size shoe to accommodate my orthotics and I can honestly say my feet are enjoying the best support and cushion ever!!!

So good I bought 2 pairs -
I have had a hard time finding a good shoe the last few years, but this one is comfortable, fits my foot well, and I have had no shin or knee pain since switching to these. I bought an extra pair so that I can rotate and get longer use out of them. I highly recommend them.

Excellent Shoe and User Experience!
Not only was the selection of the shoe made easier by the Zappos user interface, it was delivered a day before expected and it fit perfectly. I run a lot and decided to change shoe styles so I was a little worried that I've never tried the shoe before. It wears perfectly and is really the best running shoe I've used so far.
