Great fit, feels secure. I add my orthotic as I need extra support due to plantar fasciitis but I'm a nurse on my feet for long hours and this style works for me

Awesome shoes, make sure you go up 1/2 size. Usually buy brooks in an 8, i needed an 8.5 in this style. Had to return the 8’s.

This is my first pair of Brooks; I was previously wearing Asics gel-flux. I use them for standing and walking all day. They are extremely well-cushioned and supportive, which is important for me because of lower back problems. These are comfortable right out of the box. I wear an 8 average width and the fit is perfect for me.

Initially I followed the advice of other reviewers and went down half a size and that was a mistake, because the shoes were too small. I returned that pair and ordered my normal size and they were the right fit. I wear a wide shoe and my previous pair of Brooks were super comfortable,but this pair in the wide size is just a little too snug in the toe box. It wasn’t bothersome enough to send them back, but the fit could be better. I’m also not crazy about the new colors and I wish they would make them less vibrant.

Love these shoes. I’ve been using Glycerin for the past several years and I keep coming back. I’m a neutral runner, but I need lots of cushion, and I have a fairly big arch. The Glycerin check all of these boxes. Love the comfort. Love the cushion.

I'm noticing quite a few reviewers are writing that the Brooks Glycerin feels short. I agree. I wear a women's 11, and I appreciate getting a narrow width, although ONLY ONE STYLE had the narrow in an 11. I am trying the 11.5 2AA, which is awesome to even be able to get at all. I'm so sorry Zappos, to be returning so many styles this spring. Will hope the 11.5 is a keeper.

these are the best walking/ running shoe I have ever owned!!! I Keep buying more. I have a previous ankle injury and the neutral shoe bed and extra cushioning enable me to keep walking for exercise!

Though the rubber sole appears to be exactly the same size as my Glycerin 14s, the upper is smaller--maybe 1/4 to 1/3 inch smaller. So where a 10 was a snug and perfect fit in the Glycerin 14, it is just too small in the Glycerin 15. I get a lot of compliments on these shoes and have just ordered a pair in 10.5. Never ordered that size before in any shoe.

I have plantar fasciitis and have some great orthotics. My foot doctor recommends this specific shoe.
I'm very happy with them.

Brooks Glycerins are always a win for me. I’ve had about three pairs over the last several years and they are perfect for my foot shape.

I love these shoes, they are very comfy and nice looking! Unfortunately, they don't quite fit. I'lll keep trying.

I have worn Brooks for years. For some reason, this style runs a half size small. :-(

Absolutely the most comfortable of all the shoes I tried! Better cushioning than the two Hokas I tried. Plus being able to get a narrow size is heavenly. In the past I wore a 10 in this shoe (street shoe is a 9) but I will send back for an 11. My last pair is 6 years old

Very nicely cushioned interior. I may buy another pair if these are still as comfortable after a couple of weeks. Good toe room.

Wow the colors are nice and bright. This shoe is super cushioned. It was 1/2 size to small, I’m hoping the larger size fits.

OMG!!! These are Theeee best tennis shoes ever!!! So comfortable and feel true to size in my opinion. I have not worn them to exercise yet, but as soon as I put them on, I knew they were keepers. They are pricey, but you get what you pay for and I don't mind paying for shoes as comfortable as these. I highly recommend them!!!!

I have been wearing the Brooks Glycerin for many iterations and they work great for me. I have a 'low volume' foot, meaning not alot of padding and this shoe makes up for that. I also have high arches and medium to slightly narrow feet and always wear a size 9 in these, and an 8.5 in most regular shoes and boots (39 in Dansko and other European shoes). I worried that the Glycerin 15 would run smaller than usual after reading reviews but had no such problem. Laying them side to side with my last model 14 they are the same length exactly. They feel the same on my feet as well.

Shoe feels great but my toe is all the way at the end. I will return and buy half size larger.
