Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 19

The sole on these sneakers is a joke. There’s only a thin coating over basic foam which chips/peels off like nail Polish if you scuff it against anything. I’ve only worn these a half dozen times max. Around the house, to the hair dressers, grocery shopping and visiting friends. Always on dry surface. Love the style but what a disappointment. Definitely not buying this brand again. I’m shocked by positive reviews.

I SEND back to small

I am definitely in the minority with the rating I am giving these shoes. But, I have never worn a more uncomfortable pair of shoes. Wore them around the house for a day to break them in. I noticed a pain developing in my heal by the end of the day, which turned into excruciating pain when I worn them on a long walk the next day...my doctor said it was likely plantar fasciitis...thanks Brooks. It took me a several weeks of targeted stretching to get rid of it. I went back to wearing New Balance and haven't had anymore issues. The weird thing, both of the Brooks shoes sit differently when placed on a flat surface. One heal is definitely lower.

Soooo disappointed that brooks changed the glycerin 19. I’ve been a loyal glycerin girl for over 12 years. But these are much shorter in length, more narrow in the toe box and more shallow/flat on top. Hoping brooks ditches these changes for glycerin 20, but I’m returning the 19’s?

I have been a loyal glycerin 17 user for awhile. This was a totally different shoe. Gone is the roomy toe box and upper. These made my feet hurt and sore. I am a neutral wearer with need for cushioning and decent arch support. I'd order a full size up if you want to try these 19's out!! Not for me.

This shoe has not met my expectations since Glycerin 14. Liked that shoe so much that, luckily, purchased 3 pairs. The fit and the style of Glycerin since then have not been worth keeping. Some wearers, like me, want color choices too, not just trim color. I don't buy these to wear to fine dining. I like fun, attractive shoes for the other times. And they've gotta be comfortable, light, with support and cushioning. When my feet strike a hard surface that's the kind of shoe I need.

The shoes arrived used with dirty soles and gravel in the treads. I understand people return things, but these were very clearly worn about and then shipped out to the next person. Disappointing as I have this shoe in other colors and enjoy it, but I refuse to pay $150 for used shoes.
