Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 18

I've been searching for a good pair of sneakers after two knee surgeries last year, and these are amazing. I bought two pairs. Well worth the price.

Very comfortable. I went from the ghost to new balance to Glycerin.. this is by far my favorite shoe. I hope they don't change the model soon as these are the most comfortable running shoesthat I have had in years

I had ankle surgery 7 months ago and nothing helped with the chronic soreness. Then I bought these shoes and my life changed! I'm an active nurse practitioner in a busy hospital and my ankle feels great again!

I had the Brooks ghost on when I came home from work and saw my new pair of glycerin 18 at the door. I put them on right away and could tell I was going to love these so much more for the chronic running issues I have including plantar facsiitis , torn meniscus and severe osteo of my big toe joint. The top material is slightly more stretchy/ softer than the ghost and the first thing I noticed was my toe discomfort went away immediately as it took the pressure off! I also noticed my plantar fasciitis was better as the heel is super cushy and cups the heel in all the right spots. The glycerin material makes my feet a little warmer than the ghosts but I will just wear lighter socks. As most reviews say, I wish they had a bigger selection of cooler colors but overall this shoe is amazing! I finally found a keeper.

I'm a huge fan of the Glycerin and the 18 doesn't disappoint. Super cushiony sole makes for a great run or when wearing long hours as a nurse like walking on air. Love the lighter colors too! Keep those coming!

Very cushioned and supportive for medium distant runs. Great quality and overall super happy. I was worried that the size would be too narrow because I've heard Brooks run narrow. I have a wide foot and my size fit true.

Just able to start running again after a meniscus root tear surgery. Tried the Revel 3, although a great shoe, there's not as much cushioning as the Glycerin 18. So glad I also purchased the Glycerins. If you've had any kind of knee problems/surgery, I recommend the Glycerins. They made a huge difference to me. Worth every penny. Happy Running. Thanks Brooks.

Great shoe but wish they had more color options in wide width. For some reason the smooth part around the ankles wears. This has been the case on every model of the glycerin. My ankles don't rub together so don't really understand what is happening.

I've been wearing the Glycerine's for years. I admit I wasn't as thrilled with the Glycerine 17 as I'd been with previous versions of the shoe. The fit just wasn't right for my foot- too tight in the tow box but loose in the heel. I am happy to say that I love the 18! I've worn it for a few easy medium-long runs and absolutely love it. The toe box is good, and my heel feels nice and secure. The cushioning is, as always withe the Glycerine, wonderful. These shoes are perfect for easy and recovery runs.

I love the Glycerin line from Brooks. I work in a hospital, so I don't run in them, but I need extreme cushion to be on my feet all day. These are awesome hospital shoes. I highly recommend these to non-runners, who work on their feet all day.

The glycerin 18 are my absolute favorite tennis shoe. I have plantar fasciitis in both feet and these make my feet feel wonderful. I?m able to do not only my daily routine workout, but just daily life as well. Thank you!

First time tried this version of Brooks. Always been Adrenaline for years but they have so many now and each new version of the Adrenaline changes a bit. My feet had been sore after my 4th pregnancy and I wasn't wearing good shoes during, just whatever I could easily slip on. I knew it was past time for a new pair of sneakers. I ordered my go to and they didn't help. So I went to a good running store and they had me try a few, I also did the shoe finder and this was one of them. Turns out though in this particular Glycerin 18, my regular 7.5 D (wide) was not the right fit. I had too much room so went down to 7 and after about a month realized that the width was actually still making it too roomy. Interesting and not sure if Brooks overall had become more wide, as in the past the Adrenaline was the only model that fit my wide feet and gave me the roomy toe box. These Glycerin sneakers were like being in a cloud. I went for a run and my feet didn't hurt a bit! I was so happy. I am due for another pair and pretty happy with the selection Brooks has.

I am a power-walker. Love my Brooks Glycerins and/or Cascadia. I've used both of these for years and my feet have never been happier. I never have to worry about fit, never have blisters and my feet always feel comfortable and supported. The one complaint on Glycerin is that the toe guard has been removed. Within a couple weeks I seem to consistently catch the toe on the right foot and it tears a little hole next to my big toe. I then end up with a scruffy looking shoe for the remaining life of my shoe. : (
