runs 1/2-1.0 smaller than street shoe. Lots of cushion and very comfortable. In my opinion, it is very room. My foot tends to run somewhat narrow, but in a tie shoe I can wear a medium. I had to get a narrow in this running shoe. The tow box is roomy. Would have loved a nice medium gray color with bright accents such as aqua or pink tones. The blue is limiting as far matching. I wear these for walking (painful feet) not running.

The Brooks Glycerin 20 is the most comfortable, best fitting shoe I have bought.

The Brooks Glycerin is my favorite tennis shoe. I’m an avid walker and this show holds up well for 6-7 months.
I do have to size up significantly. I typically wear a women’s 8-8.5 but in Brooks I need a 9.5.

They are perfect in every way. Fits true to size and very comfortable. I wear an 8, and the toe box on this shoe is roomy with lots of cushioning. 5 STARS!!

I love my Brooks Glycerin 20's! I They are like walking on clouds! I also love the new Orange color that comes in mens sizes only. Will you be releasing this color in women's sizes? If not, I may have to order them in the mens size and hope they fit the same!

Love these shoes. I’ve been wearing a 9.5 in Brooks for years, including the Glycerin 19. I got a 9 in these based on reviews and that was perfect for me. The Glycerin style is fairly wide (but not officially “wide”), which makes them great for my flat arches.

Very comfortable shoe. Usually order the Ghost (which I always like) trying the Brooks Glycerin, so far seems good. Good color choices, not so bold.

Great shoes! Very comfortable. Only downsides are that they run long and run wide. I had to go down a half size and also go down a width to get the best fit.

I just had extensive foot/ankle surgery, and my surgeon recommended this brand. I’m so happy with the fit and comfort, and especially the support they offer. Highly recommend.

I absolutely love my Brooks' Glycerin 20s. If I could, I would make the foot bed a bit softer but other than that I would not change a thing. Fit is accurate and quality is there. Highly recommend.

Fit seems good and attractive on my feet. I bought size 10.5 in the narrow width. Light and cushioned will be used for walking not running.

I have worn several of the Brooks Glycerin series over the years. The Glycerin 19 was a major disappointment as my normal size was too small, and I had to size up a half size. Also the sole was a lot bigger than the upper than on previous models, and I would trip when hitting a pavement crack,etc. Have waited for the Glycerin 20, and am glad to say the size is now more true to the Brooks model. Also. sole is a little less large. Colors limited so will buy more as new colors come out. I wear a custom orthotic for pronation so wear both the Brooks Glycerine and the Brooks Ghost.

Love me some Brooks for working on my feet all day at the hospital, ALL of the compliments even when dirty. However going with my normal 8.5 size is a half too much, but lacing my shoes with the "heel lock" technique helped alot. I'd definitely buy these again, the heel support is amazing for someone that heel strikes and stands on the heel more.

Shouldve bought these shoes years ago! I can definitely tell there is a big difference in cushion! I really enjoy these shoes for my longer runs and they have been put into my rotation.

I have been running in two types of shoes for the last 15 years, and brooks glycerin is one of the two types. I love them because they're snug and plushy. And they hold up well. I usually run with them for a little less than 300 miles and then i use them as a daily tennie until I get a new pair of running shoes again.

Nice neutral shoe. Not overly cushioned. Just enough. Not meant for extreme weather but I wear them everyday. I strained my knee and I have found them to be the only comfortable shoe I can walk in. True to size. Enough room in the toe box.

I've been wearing Glycerins as my go-to show for years now and rely on them for a comfortable run/walk that doesn't aggravate my foot issues.

Great look and feel, however the fit is quite snug. Im not sure if its going to work well with my winter socks. Thanks for the lengthy return policy.
