Excellent shoe for people who need cushion. I tried some other brands but came back to Glycerine.

They feel good, but are too short and too narrow. The sole feels too thin on rough ground.

Super comfortable and good looking. Snug in the back and roomy up front.

This is my third pair of Glycerins! I order a new pair each spring. They fit me like a glove, provide space for my orthotics, and are still very supportive and stylish.

I wanted to love these shoes - and tried - but they aren't comfortable at all for me. The length and width seem fine, but my toes go numb and the fit across the top feels too snug, even if I loosen the laces. I will likely return them.

I usually love Brooks Running shoes - they are the only brand that gives me the width I need in a running shoe. I was very disappointed in these shoes, the arch support is not up to the normal level of my previous Brooks sneakers. A little disappointed in this shoe, especially for the price.

I am happy with by new Brook's glycerin sneakers. Just what I wanted. I always go up a half-size in sneakers, so the fit is perfect for me. This is a great shoe. I will purchase them again in the future. Zappos order came quickly.

Thinking I needed to replace my old Brooks Ghost athletic shoes, which I had used primarily for treadmill walking and rehabilitation after a hip replacement, I ordered the newest Ghost model and two other pairs of Brooks athletic shoes, so that I could begin walking outdoors. This Glycerin pair, with maximum cushioning, actually helps ease my back pain while walking, and also felt like they improved my gait. I tried them with different types of socks; felt best with lightly cushioned ones. And now it's the only pair of shoes I want to wear. If they become available in my size in other colors, I can see myself buying a second pair.

I have been running in Brooks for years. These are the worst pair I have ever had. They are very tight and uncomfortable. They blister my feet and run on every surface. I tried to find older models to replace my new ones but can?t so I have to switch brands.

I had bought several of these over the years but this one made my feet numb and hurt. They feel tighter as well. I don't know they did differently on this shoe than in the past but I do hope they go back to the way they made them prior to this change. Also, the shoelaces are way too long and keep coming undone, not ideal when on a run. I addressed this issue with the company and they did sort it out and I am grateful.

I must say I am very disappointed in the 19! I walk/run on dirt road and end up with a pile of sand in my shoes after a few minutes. I have had 6 pairs of glycerins and never had this issue before. Great cushion but won?t buy next time if vent holes aren?t smaller?

Good neutral support and very light. They do run a bit narrow, I had to return for a wide size, and I have never worn a wide shoe before.

I normally wear an 8 1/2 regular with shoe so it took a while to get the right size. It appears I’m a 9D in these. I’m glad I persisted though as they are amazingly comfortable although I was a little bit disappointed that my size and with that I needed did not come in any of the fun colors. I bought these for use on a treadmill underneath my desk so I can’t wait to see how they hold up.

My favorite running shoe for over 10 years. Love the square toe box. Super comfortable for every day use and long runs. Looks great, feels great!

Glycerin 18s are way better. The toe box of the 19s are so tight I had to size up. Not impressed. My feet don?t feel as good in these. Hoping they go back to previous model

The changes to the Glycerin's fit in the 19 version have made the shoe uncomfortable for me. I still have some fairly new Glycerin 17s that work great for me. By contrast, the 19s are annoying on my achile's tendon, have a smaller toebox, and feel cramped overall. In fact, the shoe laces were strangely too short and after trying to make room for my foot, there wasn't enough length to tie! Wanted to love them, and possibly a different size could work? I've been size 8.5 for many years, and the 8.5 in the Glycerin 17s is perfect. But in the 19s, I'd need to size up and possibly try the wide. For added detail, I need a neutral shoe with good cushioning (I'm older and carry extra weight), a narrow heel, high arch, and room for the toes.

LOVE these......Brooks is the only running shoe I'll wear. These do not disappoint. They are my first pair of Glycerins. I have plantar fasciitis and these are doing the trick to keep the heal pain away.
