These fit perfect and are like walking on a cloud. Wanted something to go w/ my black leggins and good for walking. Highly recommend.

I’m more annoyed with Zappos then the shoe- this is my first pair of Brooks. I’ve always worn ASICS, either size 9.5 or 10. Zappos recommended 9 for this shoe. Too small so I have to send it back and order up. Fingers crossed the 9.5 fit. I realize I can go to a store but again I was hoping size recommended would work. It didn’t

I liked these shoes but they feel at least a half to a full size smaller than marked and felt like a narrow even though they are a medium. I take a 10.5 in most athletic shoe brands but these were so tight I couldn't wait to get them off. While on, they did feel comfortable and supportive and I'm trying to find a size 11 M and an 11 W to compare but no one has them. I was told by a local running store this particular shoe is impossible to find because of supply chain issues. Sigh. I've never worn a wide before but I may have to if I can find them.

Unfortunately, I forgot that my last pair of Brooks Adrenaline were size 11, since they run a bit short and I need to put in orthotics.

I did not listen to the previous reviews as I loved the color scheme and had to try, BUT these DO run small. I will have to return and keep looking since my size combo is not available.

Very uncomfortable shoe, nothing at all like the Glycerin 19. My feet felt restricted and my arch hurt.

Purchased these in the GTS and the additional support is too stiff for me. The width is narrower and not a problem as I have narrow feet. Might be a issue if you have wider feet. Size 9 fit normally (that is the size of all my Brooks 9M). Going back to the Glycerin not GTS.

I ordered a size 9 even though I’m a 9.5 since with another Brooks sneaker, I needed the 9. These runs small. Returning these.

I needed to go up a half size for a comfortable fit. Ball of foot cushioning is helpful for pain issues. Comfortable shoe.

I have narrow feet and this still felt very snug.....I was worried it wouldn't be comfortable to wear for very long.

They were very comfortable, but they looked a little awkward. The size was my issue, though. I wear a size 12W and could not go up a half size

Great shoe. I have worn Brooks for years and decided to try the Glycerin GTS which replaced the Transcend for more stability. I am a walker, not a runner. The only reason I had to send them back is because the toe box or vamp across the toes is very tight. For "toe grabbers" or those that lift the big toe up a bit when moving these don't work well. I have worn 9.5 D in all Brooks without ever having an issue like this. I do not have large toes just a wide forefoot. It was very odd.

Its definitely lighter than the Transcend but don’t seem to absorb the shocks from running as well.

It fit great except it was close or too tight across the tops of my toes. I have worn various style Brooks for years and have never experienced this. I have a wider forefoot so I ordered a wide, but not fat toes so these should have worked perfectly. I'll try another style hopefully, or try this one again when the next one comes out. Hopefully Brooks listens to the customers and gets it corrected for the next pair.

I have been buying Brooks Glycerine for years. This pair felt smaller, not nearly as comfortable. I’m really disappointed in these, I may need to switch brands now.

I feel like I had to break in these shoes for a few weeks. Afterwards the shoes were comfortable.

This shoe does not have enough arch support. The fit is good at ½ size up. I wear a 9 ½ in Asics, and bought a 10 D in this shoe.

Black ombre/metallic shoe has lots of PINK in the shoe. The sole is definitely pink and the gold (which is more ROSE gold) which looks great in the photo is hardly visible. Didn't even try these on so can't comment on fit, support, etc.

This shoe felt hard and stuff although the size was true to size I’m returning this to try another Brooks.

brooks changed the toe box of this new version it is a tad shorter and a tad wider then last years shoes, i have bought this same shoe for years and this is a big enough change to make the fit different then past ones. also the padding feels a bit firmer than last years.

Not enough arch support for me. Like color. Don't like contoured tongue (prefer full tongue as in Ghost 11).

I have worn glycerines for the last 7 years. I’m on my feet all day at work and these are so comfy, except for this model. Seems they have skimped on the front ball of foot cushioning or made some other change that effects the front of foot and arch. I put orthotics in these for arch anyway but I could barely finish a 2 mile walk with my dog in this model. The ball of my foot hurt and my arches were strained, feet very fatigued. Not sure what is going on but my older model is fine on same walk and at work. Sad that I have to find another model and hoping I can return these. I always size up 1/2 size in Brooks.
