I normally wear size 6.5. It is too small and I return them. I order a size 7 and hope it will work. It is so difficult to find a pair of shoes that fit.

I am returning these shoes. They are very narrow and tight fitting. I have many pairs of Brooks and always wear a size 8 medium and never had this problem. I?m very disappointed with this pair.

I am not a runner so these shoes are used for walking and routine wear. I have lots of problems with my feet and wear athletic shoes with custom orthotics 95% of the time. I pronate a lot and due to an injury I have chronic tendonitis and arthritis in my right ankle. The Brooks Glycerin has been my go to shoe for probably the past 10 years. This pair did not disappoint. Fit and feel is great. Don’t love the style and available colors. One change I noticed on the Glycerin 19 is the sole. It extends well out past the upper portion of the shoe and looks kind of odd. I’m sure this provides better stability, which is good. So in spite of style I’ll stick with this shoe.

Width on the Glycerin 19 was noticeably narrower. I called Brooks and asked them about it and the rep said they have had feedback from some runners that these are quite a bit narrower than Glycerin 18. Thus I had to return the shoes.

had to go up half a size and I like the wide fit as it does not feel like it is squahing my feet. Very cushioned.

I work in retail walking about 10 miles a day just inside the store! That makes for tired, sore feet at the end of the day. Bought the Glycerin 19 on recommendation of the salesperson. Best decision I've made! Cushioning is amazing and so is the support.

Zappos exchanged 8.5 for a sz 9 which is still tight and narrow. Would like to exchange for a 9.5 please.

I wish I bought a lifetime supply of the 17. These just do not compare. Had to buy a whole size up and they are fine for walking or casual 1 or 2 mile run. Not so good for me on longer runs, Please bring the design or another sneaker similar to the 17.

I have been wearing Brooks Adrenaline GTS for years but didn't like the current color selection and saw reviews for the Glycerin. It took me 4 orders with Zappos to get the right size on these as they run short and narrow (I have never ordered wide shoes previously). I normally wear a 9.5 M in the Adrenaline and got a 10 Wide in the Glycerin (I got the all black style). I've worn them a handful of times and they are definitely cushier than the Adrenaline but maybe not as much support. I will probably go back to the Adrenaline when these wear out. Overall, I like them.

Absolutely love these shoes! Very cushioned! Great for walking as well as jogging on a treadmill. My new favorite shoes! After trying a few thanks to Zappos wonderful exchange policy I finally found a winner! Ordering another pair. I also like the same shoe but in the GTS for more stability. I swap them out if I start to feel knee or foot pain I have tight IT band issues & these shoes have been helpful in healing & recovery. I had tried several different Hoka One One & they had little support. One model was so soft I hurt my hip while power walking incline at Orange Theory.

This is my second pair of Glycerin 19s so I knew I had to size up a full size. Best Brooks shoes as far as cushion but none of them last as long as those from several years ago.

Very hard to find athletic shoes in a narrow. They do a pretty good job of cupping my heel. This is my third pair of Glycerins. They fit me really well. I use them for moderate exercise.

I've worn Brooks running shoes for about 20 years and I've always worn a size 10B. In nearly all other shoe brands, I wear a size 9B. My longest foot is exactly 10" from heel to longest toe (big toe). My other foot is about 1/4" shorter, so I choose a shoe size that will fit my longest foot without being too huge for the shorter foot! I like this shoe because it fits well, it's extremely comfortable, and it's very well made. I don't wear Brooks shoes for running. I walk about 5 miles a day. My only complaint about Brooks shoes is that the soles wear out much too quickly. The uppers last a long time, but the soles wear down before the rest of the shoe breaks down. I haven't tried a different brand running shoe, so I can't compare the durability of Brooks shoes to other brands. I chose this particular shoe because I love the red color. It's cheerful. All of my other Brooks shoes are black! Recently, I recommended Brooks running shoes to my husband who has neuropathy in his feet. The nerves in his feet are not responsive (his feet don't have much feeling), so it's difficult for him to tell if a shoe is rubbing his foot and injuring him. His new Brooks shoes are soft, yet very supportive, and have not caused any injuries or blisters. This makes both of us happy!

I love these shoes! I was in another brand of shoes and kept having knee discomfort while running long runs. Two weeks ago, I went to a store and the salesperson suggested the Brooks Glycerin 19. Today I ran a marathon in them?in the rain and they did perfectly! No knee issues?and no blisters even though my feet got wet. Honestly, right now, I can?t think of a negative! I am so thankful to find a shoe that works for me!
