They fit great. Very cushiony. The only thing is there are not enough white colored ones to choose from.

Really liking the new glycerin 19s. I started wearing Brooks with the 17s and had two pairs of 18s. The 19s are super plush and cushiony as you would come to expect, the major difference that I can feel is the more form fitting upper that feels like it hugs your foot. I typically buy my running shoes 1 size up, but with the more form fitting upper you might even be able to go 1.5 sizes up. The laces are also great (the laces on the 18s came untied for me all the time, not sure what they changed but I like it). Great shoe with plenty of cushion for everyday runs to long runs. Highly recommend if you're looking for something neutral and cushiony.

I am a 43 year old, 6?2?, 225 pound gym rat/runner. I want a shoe that allows me to run but not be too banged up in the gym the next day. The glycerin fits the bill. In the past I have run in the Ghost and Hoka One One Cliftons. The ghost is a really comfortable gym and work shoe, but doesn?t quite have the cushion that I need. The Hoka has great cushion, but makes me feel like I am on stilts. This shoe splits the difference really well. I am a CRNA, and am on my feet quite a bit for work. The glycerin is really comfortable for all day wear. The Ghost is still my favorite all day shoe however.

This shoe has great style and cushioning as advertised. I am using for a gym shoe and all day walking and standing. Will buy again!

I have bought Brooks Addiction for the last 20 years or so and they were fine. I wanted something other than grey however so I bought glycerin this time. Not nearly as good as the Addiction. Smaller toe box and my orthotics don't sit in the same place in the shoe. My arches got sore. History of plantar faciitis (spelling?). I'll stick with the Addiction.

Glycerin?s are my go to shoe for road running. I?ve ran 100 mile marathons and never had to change shoes during the race.

I’ve now learned that Brooks shoes run a full size smaller. The Width’s are accurate. I wear an 8.5 4E in NB, and any other. Brooks Glycerin, had 2 pair sent back (excellent and easy CS, returns) 9 2E, small = back. Next 9.5 2E tight in toes = sent back. No Glycerin in 9.5 4E available. The shoe was good looking and well made. Went with B Dyad 9.5 4E - love it!

We are loyal Glycerin owners and the 19s don't disappoint. Love these - my husband and I won't wear anything else!

Man! I love this shoe! I?ve worn Brooks before, but this is my first Glycerin. This 19 may be the most cushy running shoe I?ve worn. You may have read or heard criticism of the 19 running small or too narrow in the toebox?this is true. I wear a size 14 and need all the room my shoes will allow. However, I?ve noticed, like running shoes sometimes do, that the Glycerin 19 molded to my feet after a few runs. Am I making sense? Am I talking crazy? The toebox could not have expanded, but it sure feels that way. I?m happy with this model. So much so that when I buy my new pair of running shoes each year, from now on, I?ll be trying on the newest Glycerin. Hope this review is helpful.

I just started running again after a 10 year hiatus. Other shoes have flared up my planter fasciitis. Boy was I thankful when this pair of running shoes arrived. No more issues here. Highly recommend them!!!!

Very comfortable, light and easy to walk around with. It's been very helpful and has served the purpose for which I chose it and bought.

Great update. Very comfortable. Much more cushion than Glycerin 18 in the forefoot for a much softer ride. Good fit, true to size. I really love running in these shoes.

Very comfortable and supportive as any version so far. I'm not a runner. I started wearing Brooks Glycerin after my spine surgery. At that time, I couldn't wear any kind of shoes without being in pain. It was heavenly when I found Brooks Glycerin. I continued wearing them throughout the years, especially when I have swollen feet. I recommend these to anyone who has any health issues that affect feet or spine. I liked the pattern of Glycerin 18 more, but the shape of Glycerin 19 is astonishing. It mimicks the shape of the foot.

I am a Brooks fan and have been running in the Glycerin for years now. I am 72 and my feet have gotten wider so I buy the wide version. Took these for a run a couple times already and am very happy with the fit and feel. Just ordered a second pair in a different color. As always, I am very happy to get these delivered so fast. I am male, 5’9” and 160 lbs. I run outdoors and treadmill year round.

Great cushioning. A change for me from the Ghosts. I?ll definitely add them to my shoe pile of Adreneline and Ghosts. Only negative for me is that they are a bit snug compared to my other Brooks shoes. Not a problem but now I know to buy a 1/2 size bigger.

Very good cushioning. I added a gel insert with a stiffer arch support and the combo is very comfortable.

Sufficient padding all around, except the landing area of the sole, I can use more. Arch support is tolerable for my very flat arch area.

I?ve tried various brands of sneakers to use at the gym and I found my Brooks to be vastly superior to the others. The fit and comfort are perfect. I have bad feet and the cushioning has really helped my feet feel more comfortable.
