Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 19

I loved this shoe, and ordered a 1/2 size larger than I normally take, but still too small.

These shoes were just a little weird for me. It felt like they were too short and that my foot was pitching forward as I walked. Nice and snug through the midfoot which I like. Cushion is ok, not exceptional IMO. The heel box was good as I have narrow heels and the forefoot was wide which accommodates my bunion. Unfortunately they just were awkward. Also felt a tad short. I’m an 8.5 in all my other Brooks but that felt too short in this one.

I am definitely in the minority with the rating I am giving these shoes. But, I have never worn a more uncomfortable pair of shoes. Wore them around the house for a day to break them in. I noticed a pain developing in my heal by the end of the day, which turned into excruciating pain when I worn them on a long walk the next day...my doctor said it was likely plantar fasciitis...thanks Brooks. It took me a several weeks of targeted stretching to get rid of it. I went back to wearing New Balance and haven't had anymore issues. The weird thing, both of the Brooks shoes sit differently when placed on a flat surface. One heal is definitely lower.

Perfection! I am super picky about my sneaker comfort and I could wear these all day! That was not the case with my last pair of On or Hoka's. Very happy with the comfort and look.

I’m disappointed as well. They are much more narrow than my 18’s and smoosh my foot!

They run small compared to the 18’s. I couldn’t figure it out since I’ve worn the others(18’s) before. Anyhow then I ordered up another 1/2 size and they’re still to small. I’m so disappointed. I’ll be returning those too! I appreciate Zappos great service!

Soooo disappointed that brooks changed the glycerin 19. I’ve been a loyal glycerin girl for over 12 years. But these are much shorter in length, more narrow in the toe box and more shallow/flat on top. Hoping brooks ditches these changes for glycerin 20, but I’m returning the 19’s?

Fits true to size. Easily the most comfortable sneakers I’ve ever worn. Will be buying again and again. Super fast shipping too!

Ordered the Nightshadow/Black/Blue in 7.5. The main color is much more grey than navy and lighter than it looks online. Length-wise they're on the shorter side for Brooks but the width feels normal and the heel is middling, not wide or narrow. They feel comfortable to walk around in, nicely cushioned without being too squishy, but there's nothing supporting my arch. Anything more than walking around the house and I'd be in trouble so they're going back.
