Love the shoe, but the right side of my heel hurts after wearing. I do have orthotics and they fit well. They run narrow,

Best running shoe Ive ever purchased. I would buy pairs in navy and charcoal too if they were available (I purchased those colors in other Brooks models, but they don’t measure up to Glycerin in style or fit, so I returned them). Aside from being a hug for your foot, this little champion is shaped like an hour glass, so it looks slick from the top too!

These have great cushioning. I like the style too but I wish there were more fun colors!

The shoe fits well but the wide width only applies to the toe box, if you have a wife foot from heel to toe this does not fit much different than the medium width.

The size is spot on and wide was perfect for my feet, but i typically don’t wear wides- I find Brooks shoes to run kind of narrow. They feel nice and cushy and bouncy and the heel to toe drop is great for my Achilles tendinitis.

I would give this model of Glycerin zero stars if that was an option! I?ve been a Glycerin wearer for 6 years. I but a new pair for each half marathon, train and run in a new pair and then upgrade. This pair turns my inner heals in and causes my feet to go numb on any run further than 3 miles. I will be running my next half marathon in an old pair, because this pair is garbage! Everything I loved about Glycerin is gone with this model! Please go back to the shoe I loved!

Finally a dark stability shoe with some funky flair! I work on my feet all day and have to have a dark show. I am ecstatic about the funky leopard print on these extremely comfortable shoes - I can wear them all day - and they are stylish with cute jeans!

I have a large bunion on one foot and medium widish feet. I usually wear a 8.5W or 9W. In these, I bought 8.5 Medium. They fit my orthotics perfectly! I got two colors. They are light, and good for walking and exercising. Kudos to Zappos, as I had to buy 5 different pair for my physical therapist to fit to my orthotics, and Zappos was great with the return and sending another pair of these in second color.

These are my first pair of Brooks running shoes. I was looking for something with a little more bounce on my runs, and these shoes are great for it. Ive noticed less pressure on my ankles and knees during and after running. However, I have had ridiculous blisters since wearing them. I thought it was just the new of them, but we?ll over 50 miles in and there are blisters all over my feet unlike I?ve had with other running shoes.

Love Brooks shoes but wow! These puppies run short! I am a solid 8.5 and had to go up to a 9 Otherwise they are comfortable out of the box.

They feel great! But they do not hold up. Wore out way too quickly. Especially for the price.

I?ve bought several different styles of Brooks & have always wore a size 7.5 regular width. I ordered these in the same size & they?re too small & very snug. I will probably need a 8 or maybe even an 8.5 ?.they?re that small!

First time trying Brooks at the behest of both my husband and personal trainer (the shoes will be for walking, running, and HIIT workouts at the gym), and when I tried them on initially at the store, I was surprised and impressed: light, cushiony, plenty of room for this wide-width foot. But on my first 2 mile walk, I had to cut it short because the heel tab was rubbing the backs of my heels into blisters. Sadly, it was a reminder that I need an Achilles' Notch in my shoe instead of a heel tab (and I just had to look those terms up), but I'm super disappointed, because everything else about the shoe was working wonderfully.

I really wanted to love these shoes but after walking around an amusement park my legs and knees hurt. Cheap construction, if they were comfortable I could see these lasting 3-6 months. Not happy with Brooks.

I love my Glycerin 19 running shoes! Every time I run through a pair, I replace them with the next model year. I’m a sucker for cushy running shoes, and these definitely have great support. I wear an 8-8.5 in normal shoes and purchased a 9.5 in these. I had a size 9 in Glycerin 18 that fit great, but this model year must run slightly smaller. The black with cheetah print is fun, although I do wish Brooks offered the pretty cornflower blue I had in the 18s! I will definitely be buying the Glycerin 20s once I run through these bad boys!!! :o)

Love the shoe and buy them every year, wish they weren’t $150. I feel like they could be priced a little more sensibly. But, when it comes to your feet you probably should not sacrifice on comfort.

These were very comfortable aside from the fact that they run short. I do not want my big toe to be touching the tip of the shoe as they did in this shoe.

I pre ordered the white, pink and green in a size 9 from running warehouse and it fit great. Just about a month ago I purchase a gray/blue pair in size 9 from Fleet Feet and it was too small. There is an obvious difference between the two pairs of shoes. Disappointed with the inconsistency.

I ran in glycerin's for years. I think my first pair were 11's. They were the first shoe I could put on and run for miles with no pain or stopping to adjust laces, etc. Starting with the 15's or 16's they started to change. They felt deconstructed, less cushion. But I found inserts that helped. By the 18's they were horrible. 19's are unwearable. I don't know why Brooks felt the need to mess with what was always one of the highest rated, most recommended long distance running shoe (glycerin rarely makes the list now or is last). Please bring back the 13/14's. I know a lot of runners that miss that shoe. For now I wear Hoka Bondi's and will continue to hope you stop ruining great shoes and bring back the old glycerins.

The shoes are awesome. They have a wide enough toe box for my arthritic feet and hammertoes without looking wide and ugly. They feel like I am walking on air and are very supportive. I have had Hokas, Altras, Ortho, Propet shoes, and by far these are the best fitting and are nicest looking. Heck, the shoe lace ends match the lighter color on the shoe! Nice.
