I love these running shoes. They have great cushioning and wide toe box. I have a lot of bone spurs. I wear these all day long to teach in, and run in them a couple of miles about four times a week.

I had the same size shoe in the Glycerin 18s which were a tad more comfortable. The toe box on the glycerin 19s seems a bit narrower and therefore the shoe seems to be a bit more snug than the glycerin 18s.

Love this shoe and I have flat feet and usually get a lot of pain in my feet. These shoes are super comfortable! Seems like they run a bit small

These shoes hit me too high in the back of the foot. I could not run in them due to pain in my Achilles tendon and the blisters the back of the shoe caused. I didn't like the mesh forefoot. I prefer my Glycerin 14s which offer more support and aren't so high in the back. These were unwearable.

I have worn Brooks running shoes for many years, usually the Ghost. I thought I'd give the Glycerin a shot because of the cushioning. All my Ghosts are a size 6.5 with my orthotics they a a perfect fit. The Glycerin feels really nice but the 6.5 is too short & too tight with the orthotics. I've tried wearing without orthotics but still feel small on my left foot. I really love how the shoe looks but I'm afraid I am going to have to return.

I am quite disappointed in this shoe. I tried to give it a chance, even after it rubbed the back of my ankle raw causing a blister, I decided to try an wear higher socks to avoid the problem. But unfortunately, a couple days ago, I sprinted across the street to make the light and as soon as I got to the curb I could barely walk as I seem to have injured a tendon or ligament near my achilles. This has never happened before while wearing a Brooks shoe. I really need a good shoe and now have to figure out if any other Brooks will work for me. I have always loved Brooks, so this is a major disappointment.

This is my fourth pair of the Glycerine series and each one seems to be less comfortable than the last. While the neutral footbed has helped my stability in running, theses lack cushion and overall comfort. Looking forward to putting enough miles on them to justify finding a new running shoe.

No break in period. I use orthotics w the shoes for plantar fasciitis & heel spur. Very comfortable for being on my feet for most of the day. Love the style & color of the Ombr violet lavender.

I was hoping for a model with more cushioning than the ghosts. I did feel that, but this particular show made my feet so hot. I wore them twice before having to return. I also had to do a half size larger than any other model I?ve worn in ghosts.

I have arthritis in my knees and these shoes provide a great deal of flexible padding and support. I've had then for 1 month and love them!

I am not a runner however, I am on my feet all day. A few years back I had plantar fasciitis. A person in a shoe department watched me walk and recommended these shoes. It has been a match made in heaven ever since. I love the shoes but ,wish you would keep selling older styles of shoes, sometimes the newer designs are not always better.

I?ve been using Glycerins for my running shoes since the #14s came out. They?re cushiony & not heavy. I?ve ran many miles in them, including marathons, without issue. I always appreciate the guarantee even though I?ve never had to return them!

I usually purchase the ghost but I decided to give the glycerine a try and I was very disappointed, I had to return them after wearing to work 1 day Bc it gave my right foot a blister in the back. They do not run true to size and rub right on my Achilles in the back. Maybe the 19?s just didn?t hit the mark but I?ll be sticking with the ghost just in case.

I love the Glycerin 19 shoe! I have narrow feet and I found the Glycerin 20s were too wide in the toe box. I have developed arthritis in my big toe area causing pain while just simply walking. These shoes have the right amount of padding which in turn causes no pain! They are a win, win in my book!

Love Brooks running shoes. I have worn both the glycerin and ghost. They fit great and have wonderful support. I have worn these shoes for 10+ Years !! Never felt the need to look for another brand of running shoes.

I love the color combination and the cushioning, those are the positives. Because I love those aspects I have tried to get the correct size in these, having tried three different sizes at this point. The height and widtj of the top box are considerably smaller than previous versions. Due to this factor I might return them cuz despite trying to break them in various ways they are definitely tighter than they should be and causing numbness and I did go up considerably in size from what I usually wear trying to find a fit

I love this shoe. This is my first experience with the glycerin and it?s awesome. It provides a lot of cushion and support. I normally reserve a pair of shoes just for running, but I find myself wanting to wear these all the time bc they are so comfortable. They do run slightly small so I went up half a size than normal.

Great walking shoe. I have been a fan of the Brooks Ghost, but the Glycerin is similar and perfect for my foot. I am a fan of Brooks shoes and these hit the mark.

So disappointed in the size. I've purchased size 7 1/2 in the past (shoe size is 7) and the fit has been perfect. The sneakers felt tight when I initially put them on and then left a red mark on the top of my feet after walking in them. I'll return them but now don't know what size to order.

Not a runner, but got these for walking and will likely end up using mostly for work and/or day to day wear. Ordered my usual Brooks size and they are quite narrow and not as roomy in the toe box compared to my Ghost 13. The cushioning is good, so I will keep them for that reason alone. I switched to Glycerin because the new Ghost 14 just didn?t seem to fit right in multiple sizes either.

Poor SupportGreat Support
I’ve owned many pairs of Brooks sneakers. This was the first pair ever to fit and feel so poorly. The soles are awkwardly wide kinda looks like you have snowshoes on your feet! I wish I had listened to other reviewers advice and order up a size (or half size) ordered two pair and returned them both.

It's like running on clouds! Gives the support you need without the pounding on your feet. I Invested in 2 more pairs.
