Love these sneakers! I use them to walk and they are very comfortable. They were true to size. I need a bit more room since I have custom inserts for my sneakers and these fit the bill!

The support is okay, but not the best out of other options Brooks has. The biggest issue is the heal comes up to a point and causes severe blisters every time I wear them. I?ve given these shoes many chances and the back is just way too pointy, don?t know how this could work for any human.

I typically purchase Brooks Adrenaline but I thought I would try the Glycerin. I think it is important to go to the Brooks web site and follow the directions on what style shoe is for you. They have a great questionnaire that helps you find the right shoe for your walking/running style. The will give you several options and you go from their. These are nice sneakers but I prefer the Adrenaline.

I've worn Glycerins for over nine years. I always got size 7 normal. In these shoes I'm a 7.5 wide... go back to your old shoes or recommend me a new company :( the adrenaline's don't have enough support and wear out after 3 months. This shoe was that bad I had to get Adrenalines. Just go back to 2015-2016. Designs and make were better.

These shoes are so perfectly perfect. The support for my high arch is very good and the cushioning in the heel is heavenly.
I have ordered two pairs (gray and navy blue/teal) of these shoes in the last year and will continue to order these unless Brook’s changes the fit.

Happy with these! Unique detailing. Love the leopard laces and trim. This is my fourth pair of Brooks Glycerin. While they are not as comfortable as my 15s, they do feel good

I typically have to wear an orthotic but since purchasing the glycerine, I don?t anymore. Great cushion. Gives me the support for my high arches and my feet feel great at the end of the day no matter how long I have been on my feet! I buy a half size up! Great sneaker!

Just too much shoe on the heel. I have small ankles and I walked out of the heel.

These shoes fit very tight, and I ordered 1/2 size larger. While they look great, I will not order them again.

Ordered size 9.5 W, plenty of room in the toe box, but overall did not feel quite as stable as other running shoes I'm trying (Asics, New Balance, Hoka One One). Also, my big toes do touch the end of the shoes. I would have tried them in a 10 W but while wearing them for about half an hour just sitting around the shoes felt tighter and my feet felt like they couldn't breathe. I decided it wasn't worth ordering a larger size due to the issue with breathability. Pretty cute shoes, though, for Wide.

I so wanted to keep these. They are great fitting, look good on my feet and so cushiony. But I need more arch support for overpronation and stability so I had to return them. I have worn Brooks Ghost for a while, which I loved but started having foot pain so decided to try Glycerin for comparison. They are just slightly more comfortable than Ghost but feel very much the same as far as stability goes. They also run slightly shorter in length than the Ghost and I order up 1/2 size in both. Great shoe otherwise.

I love these shoes. The bottoms are so squishy, it's like running on clouds. But they have good arch support, too.

The Glycerin has varied a lot over the last few years. In the 19, the cushioning including through the front of the foot provides good support and reaction. However the look is quite flared more than is shown in the pictures where the sole and cushioning is much wider than the area covered with fabric and makes the shoe feel and look large and kind of clunky. The fabric is meshed and aerates the foot but is quite tight and takes some getting used to and I see that commonly noted in the reviews. Orthotics fit in Brooks shoes when the original insert is removed.

This is my 6th pair of Glycerin shoes and have always ordered the same size (8.5) but for some reason these ones ran small and I needed a half size up. Strange but grateful for Zappos easy shipping snd returns.

I was really looking forward to getting these and at first I thought they were going to be my new favorites. I tried them on, wore them around the house for several hours and they felt good. They were a little tighter than normal because I decided to try a Narrow width. (My last two pairs of Brooks (Ghost 14) were 7.5 M and they began slipping on my heel within a month. I finally just quit wearing them because the fit was so loose, it made my knees hurt after a run). I wanted to see if the Glycerin shoes would break-in to a more comfortable shoe, which they did. However, the left shoe started rubbing against my toe so I sent them back. I explain that because I'm not sure it was the shoe or that particular shoe on my foot that made it uncomfortable because if it would have fit the same as the right shoe, I would have kept the shoes. They give a lot of support and cushioning. And they look pretty cute, too.

First I have to say this is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn! My feet are happy! Although, I wear a 9.5 women's all day, every day for years, every shoe I own is a 9.5 I tried on a 10 and it was snug, I tried an 11 and it fits, I do not wear an 11 shoe. They made this style weird for sizes, I still would absolutely recommend this shoe for comfort!

I've had these for about a week and really like them. They felt comfortable from the get go. I like the thin laces and the pink tips. I don't know why but after the first day I noticed I had already scuffed the top part of the front of the shoe on both. I didn't do anything other than walking. The material where the holes are on the top seems like it might start to fray eventually but overall I'm really happy with the shoes.

I've worn Brooks Glyercin for years (7.5M). I have wide feet with bunions getting worse by the year (narrow heel and high arch). My regular size 7.5 felt too narrow so tried size 8. Fit I felt my big toe being squished from the top. They were wide enough just not enough volume in front of shoe. Trying Altra shoes. See how that goes. BTW, I use Powerstep insoles with metatarsal relief in all my shoes.
