I CAN'T IMAGINE EVER WEARING THIS SHOE ITS STRANGE MADE. HARD ON BOTTOM AND FORMED YUCK??? I AM SO SAD, I NEED NEW SHOES. brooks YOU NEED TO MAKE US THE GLYCERIN 18 SHOES, ANYTHING BUT THESE THINGS.

Love the support and the motion. Cushion is good but not too much, like other shoes I?ve tried.

I think I'd really give these a 4.5 if I could do half stars. These shoes are a great recovery run choice to give your feet some extra cushion when they're tired. They can even go pretty fast if pushed. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is the toe box... It doesn't seem super narrow, but just flat somehow. I still run in these, and they're fine. I just prefer more space for my toes, especially in a shoe that is otherwise very comfy. The cushioned tongue is amazing!

Was very excited to receive. Very bummed out that my arches were hurting with these expensive shoes.

Why, oh why, do you change what is already good!? I've been using Glycerin for 3 years and this is the first time I can say it has not lived up to my expectations. I have high arches and the running store recommended Gylcerin 16 and have used the newest model ever since. Something in this design triggered an old foot discomfort so I am not sure I am keeping these or returning and trying to find something that doesn't hurt my foot.

I have had at least one pair of Glycerin (if not more) every year for over 15 years. These are by far the worst. The shoe is too short and makes the ball of my foot cramp. This is the only Brooks heel that has given me blisters and pushes on just the right area of my Achilles tendon to make my foot go numb sometimes. Very Disappointed. Makes me look for a different brand of running shoe for the first time in years.

I normally wear Adrenaline and have 1 pair of Ghost. These seem a little bit shorter than those, but still fit ok.

Great fit and feel. Balance of cushion for shock absorption and support.

Loved these, they are my third pair. I should've read the reviews before buying, they run small. I had to return and sign up half a size. I am not crazy about the laces. I wish they kept the stretchy ones, but they can be swapped out. The mesh worries me that they will tear quickly. They are like running on clouds.

Also not a huge fan of these. My previous glycerins were a fuller shoe. This shoe is taking a while to break in and the fit is very small!!!

A completely different shoe than previous versions of the Glycerin. Toe box is narrow and sizing is off. Sent back and rethinking of changing brands.

This shoe has the most cushioning of any shoe I think I have ever owned. I don?t run but I am on my feet all day and I can wear this shoe with great confidence that it will be just as comfortable at the end of the day as when I put them on in the morning.

I buy these for my wife. She says these have the most cushion out of every other shoe she has tried. She loves them! She also has flat feet no arch and these are her favorite.

I wanted so badly to make these work. I tried multiple versions, ending up with a full size bigger than my regular size. I have admittedly wide feet and, although the colorway I wanted and ordered didn't come in W, usually when I have to size up a half size (never mind a full size) to get my toes away from the end of the shoe it manages to accommodate the width of my toes. Not this time. I considered trying to make them work, but my outer toes on both sides were bulging out over the footbed. Since the design of this shoe is such that the padded bottom layer tapers in before joining the footbed, this meant that my toes were not technically over the "base" of the shoe, but they were hanging over the interior bed (if that makes sense). I am concerned, of course, this could be a stability problem. I don't think I have ever had to return shoes a full size up for being so small...and it was not just in terms of the width issue. My toes were to the end of the shoe. I might be able to get by with an 8W in a different color/pattern that I don't like as well, but I wasn't willing to try a third time. Unfortunate, because the cushioning felt great and they accommodated my arch support inserts.

Fit fine- a tad tight behind the right bog toe- but that's my physiology. Ran light as a feather and improved my footing.

I love the stability this shoe gives my foot. I recently had surgery for a Lisfranc fracture and dislocation of the midfoot. These are the only shoes I can wear inside and outside that don’t cause pain to my foot.

These shoes are comfortable while giving me the medial support I need and also enough lateral support to protect my foot. They are a half size larger than I am used to but I took the advice offered about ordering a half size larger due to the extra padding. It turned out fine. Looking forward to lots of wear from these shoes.
