First time trying the Glycerin. I have been wearing the Ghost for many yrs and decided might be time to try a wide width. This model was suggested over the Ghost using the Brooks "test". Very comfy and just enough width to be comfortable but not clumsy.

Love this shoe! I really wish they were still going to make it! I don't like the 21 nearly as much

I have ordered and worn several of this style in different colors. I have problem feet and these, for me, are perfect right out of the box. There is no breaking them in. Highly recommend!

I'm so pleased with this purchase! I went from the 19 to the 20. I appreciate that it's a similar shoe, yet more bounce. It has the right amount of arch support for my plantar fasciitis and enough space for my bunion. I bought these in the middle of half marathon training and there was no breaking in period. My feet immediately felt better running in these.

I love these very comfortable & got the pink.. lots of women have raved about them! Also have Glycerin 21 that I walk in 5-6 days a week for 4-5 miles a day.. holding up great too! These will be only running shoes I buy from now on!

I usually wear the Ghost shoe. I have two pair of the 14. I wanted to try the Glycerin 20 to see if I noticed the difference in additional cushioning. I have used them 4-5 times and although they feel good, I am not sure that I will keep them. The laces come loose even after double knots. It is frustrating. They are a bit wider in the toe box which is good even though I do not have a wide foot. I will run some more in them and make a decision.

The pads of my feet tend to hurt when I run long distances, and this past weekend I ran a 10K in my fastest time with absolutely zero discomfort in my feet. The shoes are light-weight with a ton of support and padding. Love them!

The Glycerin 20 fits great and seems to be consistent in sizing. They are very comfortable and the nightshadow/pink color is great. My last pair was a very light grey and I had a hard time getting them clean. Love this shoe.

I've worn Brooks Glycerin shoes for 8 years as walking shoes. Comfortable the first time you put them on. Received compliments the first time I wore them out. Only complaint is the new laces won't stay tied. Please go back to previous laces.

I have narrow feet and hoped that with inserts I could make these work for me. I sure wish they had this style in narrow. Had to return.

I love this shoe for running! I feel like it helps get the right bounce or life you need to propel you. They are light yet supportive. I do not wear these all day, though, because I need a more stability shoe for my plantar fasciitis. It's certainly comfortable. Wish they had more colors in the wide sizes. Still, it's a perfect shoe for me, a heavy jogger who needs some stabilization yet also propulsion.

I love the comfort. I have two pair of Glycerin 20 and I alternate days wearing them. As a mature woman I like the support and traction. They give me a sense of security while walking. These are the only shoes I wear!

Love these shoes! Fit perfectly with plenty of room in the toe box. Great support, nice cushion and I get a lot of wear out of them. So comfortable to run in! Would definitely buy again!

These shoes never fail me! This is my 4th pair and I have never needed a 'break-in' period. The cushioning is more cloudlike than springy and my knees and hips are thankful for that.

Ghost lover for over 11 years. Thus year they are not working. So am trying Glycerin. So far they are working. I wish you would stop changing your shoes. I used to love adrenaline, no more. Now I have list the Ghost

These are a very comfortable and stylist pair of shoes....I just wish they were all the maroon color and not fade into a light purple.

Great shoe! I have stayed with the Glycerin for years now. My only concern is the limited color options for those of us who wear a wide. Otherwise, I cannot imagine ever choosing another option. I wear them out always looking forward to my next pair.
