I was having ingrown toenail issues on both feet when I purchased this pair and honestly thought the toe box may be too narrow and didn't even try them on for almost 2 weeks. When I finally tried them on and actually walked in them...they were so comfortable. The cushiony sole is great too. I really like the shoes. Style is right for me and I LIKE my white shoes...got bunches of 'em.

As an old, slow, very slow, runner, I appreciate the cushioning that Glycerins provides. Tried Hokas, and walking in the shop they felt amazing. But running in them was a different experience. Lot of hip pain after only a couple of miles. For me, the Glycerin's provide the right mix of soft and stiff, they perform well as running shoes at the same time, offering high degree of comfort.

I was a Ghost fan once I try the Glycerin 20 I swithch imediatly simply because the toe box is widether and more cushing. I use them to walk all day in hospital they are the best.

I am very satisfied with these sneakers. I now have them in 3 different colors. They are my everyday wear because they are cushioned enough to not cause my lower back pain to be noticeable.

They are Brooks. What else is there to run in. The look and style are amazing. This is the only brand I run it.

These are probably the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. Wish you had the E width in the light gray color as I would buy a pair of them.

I've been a loyal Ghost runner for many years and have been satisfied with the 'more' cushioning level. I'm moved to Glycerin for the 'most' cushioning level. I am running happy.

I bought my first running Gylcerin. They were Gylcerin 13 and I got hooked on them. Ever since then, I only buy Gylcerin running . The most comfortable shoes I've owned.

I've worn Ghost 15 shoes, Launch, Trace, and now Glycerin 20. I liked all of them and thought the Ghost 15 would be my forever shoe. I was wrong. As soon as I tried on the Glycerin 20 I was amazed. So comfortable. Glycerin is my forever shoe. It's on another level as far as comfort in a walking shoe. I'm a 70 yr. old man. I walk an average of 28-30 miles a week on asphalt. (the street) I have had a Morton's neuroma on both feet and a hammer toe next to my baby toe on both feet.

This is my second pair of the Glycerin 20. I like the fit and the cushioning they provide. The fact that they are also good looking shoes is a plus. I consider them a good value.

This is the best shoe I have ever had. I have lower back issues and wear orthodics. These are the most comfortable walking shoes. I love Brooks, but the Glycerin 20 is supportive and comfortable.

I wasn't sure at first...the sole looked a little thick and the sort of off white kind of threw me. I had gout last week and hadn't tried them on...but I sure am pleased with this pair. They're comfortable and I'm really liking the style.

Extremely comfortable shoes! Super light and durable. My only concern is that the laces tend to loosen after a while. I'd prefer not to do the double knot thing if I can avoid it. But I'll deal with it. I'm about to order a couple more pairs!

These shoes are the absolute best! I have used Ghost and Glycerin for years. I finally talked my husband into getting a pair of Glycerin and they are now his favorite! We are a household who loves Brooks!

I have wide, gnarly feet (bunion, hammertoes), and it's hard to find shoes that are comfortable all day on my feet. These are the best- many of my nurse friends swear by them. So comfortable!

Switched from Ghost to Glycerin. Definitely noticed increased cushion as advertised, not sure what I was looking for but thought at age +51 might benefit me in long run. Midsole drop in Ghost is 12mm, Glycerin 10mm not really sure anyone would notice this ( I don't have a strong understanding of what that means) but I do feel my gait is different but could be the extra cushion. True to size as the Ghost but the toe box seems slightly bigger. Only have about 30 miles on them , overall satisfied , but could easily go back to Ghost- was very happy with them. Time will tell which to go with. Don't think I would switch between the two during different runs.
