This is my first pair of Brooks. I absolutely love them! They are very comfortable and absorb a good amount of shock. I have back issues so this was pretty important in a pair of running shoes. I like the look of the maroon/fusica too. Hoping that these last a good while!

This is my second pair of Brooks Glycerin, and my feet have never been happier! They fit like a glove and can be worn all day, every day! I would like a pair in every color, if only there were more color choices for this style...especially all black!

These shoes are amazing. The first time I wore them, I jogged several miles with zero issues.

Love these beautiful shoes! Super good color to match everything but not look too crazy bright white. Very soft feeling so they can be worn without socks. Nice rounder toe box plus the give in the upper accommodates my wide feet, even though it's not a wide. Fee lvery supportive, like maybe I could even run in them, though I only ever run in very cushy Hokas. Love love love them!

Typically I wear 8.5 . I got a 9 and they fit well. Love these shoes and very comfortable. I’m buying a second pair for work as I work 12 hour shifts in the hospital and found them to be great the full 12 hours.

I fell in love with these shoes! I work 12 hour shifts and am on my feet constantly. These definitely hold up well and I love the width I bought them in.

I got this shoe along with another model of Brooks . . . but loved this one so much I ordered another pair! I use one pair to mow grass to do yard work. I figure I need a really good shoe to do these chores since I'm on my feet so much. These shoes made my old pair of Brooks feel like bricks. The Glycerin 17 is so comfortable. I also have orthotics that I put in my shoes (from Good Feet, Short Pump, VA) and there is plenty of room for these an a thick sock. The shoe strings are also nice and long. I usually wear a 7.5 size in Brooks but needed a size 8.0 in this model. I don't run but I walk my Frenchie a lot. I highly recommend this shoe.

Great shoe for anyone dealing with sore feet. Great cushion sole without compromising stability and support.

I bought these for my daughter who plays in a high school marching band. They practice 3-5 hours a day and she says these are the most comfortable shoe she has ever worn? The silver is very good looking, too.

This is my third pair of Gylcerins. I have found them to be very comfortable and have great support. I know I need to go up one half size with Brooks from my regular size.

There is more cushioning in the 17 so if you had the older styles, 16, 15, less, you need to order 1/2 size larger.

I bought these and the Ghost 11 and had a hard time deciding which ones to keep since they were equally comfortable. I decided to keep the Ghosts since I liked the color combination better.

I wear these for Orangetheory classes and city walking. For years, I have worn Nike Pegasus but the new Pegasus wasn’t as comfortable so a friend recommended the Brooks Adrenaline, I tried those and the Glycerin. For me, the Adrenaline gave more support in the arch and heal and was like walking on clouds. I love them so much I bought 2 pair!!!

I took insert that comes with shoes out and wear them with my own orthotics and some padding on right food. I still had plenty of room. I can't say what kind of arch support the insert gives that came with the shoes. I have been told by other Brooks wearers that they have the biggest toe room.

Shoe feels true to size. Shoe is comfortable right out of the box and and has a lot of cushion. The tongue is attached to the shoe. I use these shoes mainly for walking. Seem to have good traction.

I ordered these with confidence since I loved my first pair of Brooks Glycerin 16, and they had the approval of my Pediatrist. The Glycerin 17 fit even better -- plenty of toe wiggle room and a comfortable arch support. They were debuted this morning at my exercise class where they were noticed and admired! At first I thought a brighter fusia would have been a better shoelace choice for the grey & burgandy, but my daughter thought they were classy just the way. She is right!

The shoe fit fine. I have a narrow foot but need extra room in toe box and this was just right. Some shoes are too wide and it shows when laced. These shoes give me good support. I like the color - subdued but not dull - black with highlights of red.
