I wear a narrow shoe, so have limited options. That said, I love the cushioning in this shoe, even though I add my PowerStep insole in addition to the one that comes in the shoes. I hope the soft outside fabric will hold up— that’s my greatest concern.

I’ve been a longtime Saucony fan but the cush-factor seemed too good to pass up on the Brooks Glycerin 19. So far, I am loving the solid cushiony sole and upper support. Plus they look slick. I am usually a 10 in athletic shoes and the 10 works great.

I bought these shoes for my wife and she loves them! She has been wearing Brooks Glycerin for years and waited for 19 to come out. She says: I love the fit and especially the arch support. I have a narrow heel and I don?t worry about my heel coming out of the shoe. It?s a perfect fit.

Great shoe. I loved the Glycerin 17. However the 18 sole seamed a little stiff to me. Happy to report the 19 is awesome. Really enjoy that sole is soft Eli don?t worry about sliding on wet pavement and the cushions perfect for me.

I have been wearing Glycerins for years. They are a reliable cushioned neutral shoe that delivers great arch support and good comfort right out of the box. Brooks has improved the durability of the soles a lot over the past couple of years, and I expect the 19s to deliver as the 18s did. I love the heel, which is substantial. The cushioning gives plenty of loft and feels great. I hope they don't make the toe box any tighter because right now it is on the cusp of being a problem, and I know at least one other person who felt it has already been narrowed too much. This shoe keeps me centered. I supinate, and I love that on my very first jog I could feel my whole foot in contact. The general fit is flexible but very supportive, soft but structured, and feels like you are slipping on a well fitted glove. As always, the laces stay once they are tied. They do not loosen at all. I ordered the navy with aqua trim, which is more low key than Brooks usually offers in this shoe, but it is a nice change. I like to have a 2nd pair to switch off, and I am waiting for the same shoe to arrive in the ombre gray. I originally ordered this color in the GTS to give that style a try. Hated the shoe (too much stability) and sent it back, but really loved the color. I know I'll get very good mileage out of both. I rely on Brooks, and they haven't let me down yet.

This is my 4th pair of Brooks, but my first pair of Glycerins. These are my absolute favorite style! I’m on my feet for 8 hours/day and these are incredibly comfortable. Seriously like walking on clouds! I will purchase these again in the future!

It's a good shoe, but does not feel like the Glycerin 18. These feel more like the Ghosts than Glycerin to me. They have a wider toe box and thicker heel. Which, I love the Ghosts which is why I gave it 4 stars. I typically buy Ghosts to run in and Glycerins to wear to work, and unfortunately these were just not as cushiony as the Glycerin 18 which is what I was hoping for. I am still keeping these because they are nice, but if I had known I probably would have stuck with the 18s.

HI I do like the Glycerin 19 but I am finding the Ghost shoes might be my preffered shoe. I would have purchased the ghost but you are always out of the Wide width. NOte : the search on your site makes it difficult to determine wide options in the size. If i filter wide only the Wide options available in the size I select ideally would show up I am a loyal Brooks runner- and you do have great service .

I have searched far and wide for a comfortable pair of shoes I could wear to work. I finally decided to try these and am glad I did. They are roomy in the toe box and narrow enough in the heel so they don’t slip. The sole is wide and keeps my feet and knees stable. No rolling or twisting. I don’t run. I just bought them for standing and walking on hard tile and concrete floors at work. They have plenty of cushion and support. Would love to have the same shoe in a slip on...non tie version!

OMG! I absolutely love these shoes! Gorgeous!! (Thank you Brooks, finally the best women's running shoe on the market comes in cool colors/design. Every year they were so ugly.) The only shoe I will run in are Brooks Glycerins. I think the Glycerin 19s are their best model yet! I love the support. Perfect fit! Feels like there is even more support (an even better design, if that's even possible :))! And I feel like it grips the road better for stability, etc. Love, Love, Love! Absolutely recommend! I already bought 3 pairs! The PURPLE is my favorite!!

The more I run in the Glycerin 19, the more I love it. My first impression at step-in was skepticism. While comfortable, it didn?t feel as plush as I expected. It took a couple of runs for me to feel the plushness I had hoped for. It?s so comfortable that I hate taking it off. I have a small bunion and had to change the lacing pattern on one shoe, but the alternate lacing solved the irritation I was feeling. The only thing that would make this shoe even better is if it was lighter. I highly recommend the Glycerin 19 if you want a daily trainer that?s plush and easy on the legs.

The glycerin 19 are the most comfortable to walk in and run! Glycerine is my go to tennis shoe but by far these are the softest and running friendly! Total comfort! Thanks you

It's like running on clouds. I love the 19s, and I also loved the 18s. They feel the same to me. But I really like purple color. I wish Brooks would come out with some more pinks and purples and teal colors.

The shoe does seem to run a half size shorter than last year's Glycerin 18. However the 19 does seem to have more cushion. On a side note, when I received these shoes, the laces were untied, and the inside inserts were missing, and the mid-sole on the outside had creasing around the shoe, like it had been worn for a while. Still deciding whether or not to send these back because of this. Hope this doesn't happen again.

My teenage daughter wore out her Brooks Glycerin 17 shoes I purchased at a local retailer last year. I decided to buy the latest Glycerin 19 online in the same size as the local retailer closed shop. Fit is same as previous model. Violet color is great. Thanks Books for making a great shoe!

I have a very narrow foot and this style does come in narrow. They fit my foot just perfect . I would buy again in a different color if one was available. My feet feel happy and well supported.

My favorite Glycerin so far! Soft, cushy, slightly bouncy cushioning. The step in comfort is excellent as always with Brooks. This is not an exciting, new technology, fast tempo shoe. Instead, it is your dependable, long running, no nonsense old friend. The 19 is true to size for me (11.5Wide) with a forgiving upper. Also, the laces stay tied and almost never need adjustment during my run which is a major plus. Outsole has nice grip and flexibility. Also, I really like the open outline Brooks logo on the side which is a cute departure design wise. Get it- you will love it!

Brooks Glycerin is my go to shoe and this new model is fantastic. The fit was great, although in all running shoes I need a half size larger than my normal shoe size and this one is no exception. I also need a narrow size and this one is perfect. Since I have arthritis in my feet and I'm an older runner, I hope Brooks will not change this shoe as it is the only shoe that has the cushion I need and comes in a narrow width. My only complaint is that Brooks gives us ONE COLOR in a narrow width. And it's usually not very attractive. This one is boring light gray. But it feels like a cloud. A gray cloud!
