Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 17

Super comfortable. My feet don't ache as much anymore.

Very comfortable sneaker

I love these shoes, I just wish they were available in EEEE. Most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

best shoes I ever owned, very comfortable in summer , great for travelling I was walking up to 10 hours a day in London.

I've had two pairs of Glycerin 15s, and I was glad to find Brooks had not changed the fit or cushioning. In pictures, these appear to have gone the way of many running shoes in that they seem to have no toe structure. That's something I hate, even if a shoe is lighter weight -- it can feel when you're running that your toes are sliding off the insole. These, however, have added stiffness in the toe area that seems to prevent that. Fingers crossed that stiffness doesn't go away over time. I guess my only complaint about these is how ridiculously expensive they are. With a life of 500 miles per pair, I'll need two pairs a year, which makes them cost upwards of a dollar a day, which seems nuts to me.

I've been looking for a while now for a shoe that could replace my worn out Nike Pegasus 34s, which were just a solid, no BS shoe that was comfortable all day long. Nike went and ruined that shoe with the 35th iteration and beyond. These pretty much fill that void, and then some. As soon as I put them on, the fit was fantastic, and nothing about the shoe felt abrasive. Just soft as can be all around. At first, I thought maybe the amount of cushion was too much, but I'm quickly realizing that it's just right. I don't really run right now because of a back injury that I'm trying to get over, so I can't really speak to the performance of the shoe on that front, but I can say it's a comfortable shoe to wear all day. I only have two small nits to pick about this shoe. First, it doesn't offer the best traction on wet surfaces. If I could somehow make some kind of Frankenshoe with these and one of the Adidas shoes with the Continental rubber sole, it would just about be perfect. Second, I'd like to see some more colors. The style is kind of blah on these shoes. I went with the gray/navy ones and they look fine, but it would be nice to have some more options.

My husband wears these to Orangetheory and loves them! Comfortable and supportive

I am not a runner. Last year I had to have my ankle fused. I need shoes with good support and comfort. These shoes are so comfortable. They provide the support I need so my feet do not hurt all the time.

I bought these to replace a pair of Brooks Adrenaline 19's. These are equally comfortable they felt great right out of the box! The traction is excellent! I went running the morning after Hurricane Dorian swung by Cocoa Beach, FL and even in puddles with mildew, they held the ground without slippage! The material dries out quickly and without causing any change to the shoe shape. Another great shoe from the good folks at Brooks!!!

My husband loves these. He is so thankful to be able to order his running shoes from Zappos and this shoe is a perfect example....because he can order wide widths. He has a high arch and aging feet that have pounded the streets and treadmills for decades So his feet have spread a and his bones are thankful for the extra width. Excellent running shoe. Highly recommended.

Feels good.

This shoe felt extremely comfortable to stand in, however this shoe runs a bit narrower than the Ghost line and I need to return them. The Glycerin is not available in a 4e so I will continue my search for a highly cushioned neutral.

Love them! I’ve ran I ghosts for years, switched to these, and I like them better.

My husband and I both have a pair of these, and we love them! They are like walking on clouds or pillows. Once you wear these, you won't ever want to wear anything else.

These shoes are the best buy this type everytime .A bit spendy but well worth it.

Nice shoe

Great shoe overall. Comfortable, good support. I know I'll get lots of miles out of them.

This is a great shoe with a nice cushion that provides comfort during long runs. I have been an advocate for the Ghost for a few years, but this shoe is a great addition to the rotation. Might be a tad heavy for racing, but perfect for my long runs and recovery runs.

Been running since high school and have tried them all. Started with Brooks Glycerin about three years ago and just love them. I use them for running and casual wear. And Zappos makes it a win win with their fantastic service, the only way to buy shoes.

My husband says these are the best shoes he’s ever worn! Extremely comfortable!

They are very comfortable. The upper material is very flexible. Nice looking shoe, appears well built. I also like the way they look.

Purchased these for husband...ordered the black, blue green, size 10. This is his second pair, he loved the first so much.
