Such a soft cushion! I bought these for my second marathon. I really needed something that worked for my slightly wider feet. I wore Nike aphaflys last summer for my first marathon and it was BRUTAL, horrible blisters
My second marathon is coming up in 9 weeks and I've had a great training season in these so far. Loving them.

I've run in several models of the Glycerin since 2001, and this is the best one yet! The new foam is a combination of responsive and spongy and soft. Whether you run 100 miles a week or 20, consider adding this shoe to your rotation! The upper is soft and pliable and hugs the foot nicely. It has a nice rounded toe box, snug heel and soft collar. I also have the Ghost and while this is slightly heavier, it gives me the protection I need on longer runs and I feel refreshed after. If you are a neutral runner, definitely add this to your rotation!

Amazing shoe. Comfy but can pick up the speed a bit

Seems Tom run a little small; I wear 9AA in other running shoes and 9.5AA in Brooks. Just a nice cushioned, flexible shoe. Like that it is available in narrow. Wish there were more color combos, but this one is quite nice. I've worn glycerin before and it wears well.

I love my Glycerin 20s. I don't run in them, just wear them as my every day shoe, and as a nurse. I've always been diehard Asics and these converted me! I always have wider feet and these are great!

Have bought these shoes since the 18's came out. Love them for fit, durability and looks.

Epic comfort from the moment I slipped my feet in, all day long, every day. I don't just use them for running, I almost can't take them off because anything else I could wear would just be less comfortable.

Decided to try these as my new running shoe rather than ghost 15 based on the other reviews and I'm very happy I did! I was pleasantly surprised that it was even better than the ghost, seems to give me a little spring in my toe off and at 65 I need all the help I can get to keep me running! Amazingly my times have even been a little faster on my usual run coarse. Highly recommend.

Brooks are the only running shoes I’ve been buying for years. I’m not a runner but do a lot of walking. These are by far the most comfortable of all the Brooks I’ve ever owned. I just wish Brooks would offer better colors.

Very comfortable shoe. I went down a half size and got a perfect fit. Great shoes with great arch support. They do, however, have a higher stack height than previous models, so they are not quite as stable as earlier models.

I have finally found a shoe that doesn’t make me feel like I’m pounding pavement. It has good cushion. I wear a wide, and the wide version is good. Usually when I buy a wide, I feel like I’m walking on the sides of the shoe. I would buy Brooks again.

One of the most comfortable shoes I have had in a long time! Love them.
7.5 Wide was perfect fit/true to size!

These shoes are just perfect! I have slightly wide feet at the toe box, but not enough to order wide width shoes. I love the wider toe box - roomy but my feet still feel comfortable and supported. Also my ankle area is more narrow and I love that these have more support and a higher back - no rubbing and great structure for my ankle and high arches. And because of my high arches the inside ball of my foot gets extra pressure and these are so cushiony. I tend to supinate and these shoes helped tremendously. I wear 8.5 in heels and sandals - 9 in a running shoe. 9 fit perfectly.
