The shoes are very Comfortable if you're on your feet for hours. They are not the best shoes for running or walking at a very brisk pace. They do not create a spring in your step and energize you. Instead they feel a little big and cumbersome but very soft and cushioning at the same time. I recommend the brooks launch for running/walking. I have a couple peppers and they are perfect and very comfortable for my daily workouts I am jogging and walking

I have always loved Brooks shoes. The cushion inside is what I need, theyve always been like walking on a pillow. For some reason the glycerin 20 does not have that cushion. The bottom of my feet hurt sometimes when I come home from the day. I do love how the shoe looks, I will continue to buy brooks.

I had talked up the glycerin model to my wife so she bought them thinking i was over hyping them but once they came in and she tried them out she said if anything i didnt talk them up enough! Best shoes she have ever had.

comfortable, but bulky. The foam is too high and wide. I am a 11 and had to get a 11.5 for some reason Brooks are running small! They never used to be. They just look huge on me. Just ordered a pair of the ghost and they are better looking for sure

I ordered the Glycerins to add to my Brooks rotation. I have been wearing Ghosts for many years, and I figured the Glycerin would be fine but I would always prefer the Ghosts. I was wrong! The Glycerin is my new favorite! It has a nice amount of cushion and bounce while remaining neutral. It is SO comfortable. I feel lighter on my feet in the Glycerins versus the Ghosts. Really happy with them!

I've been wearing Glycerin for at least 10 yrs. - 20 pairs. I was very happy until this pair. They seem to be sized a little big. I tried 1/2 size smaller, but those were too tight.. The cushioned sole is bigger - almost too much - but ironically doesn't feel that "cushy". All that said, I kept the pair I ordered because I didn't have time to shop, and wore them for a half marathon. But I will be looking into other brands for future.

I couldnt be happier with this shoe. I loved the 19s but the 20s are next level. Comfort, fit, cushionit has it all. Brooks knocked it out of the park with these!

The shoes are comfortable and stylish however, the left insole is short and I can feel the roughness in the toe box area.

Awesome and super comfortable! I sized up for long distance and they feel really good. My only complaint is that they are a bit heavy and can slip off the foot. All in all though, these are great shoes.

I really like these shoes. I have bone spurs in my feet and these fit really well and help with that issue. They feel like they used to have a little more cushion in the older models, but they are still comfortable. I also have a very narrow, very high arch, small foot (extreme narrow size 5), and these shoes are the best fit. I don't have to add an insole or anything. Just lace them up and go.

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned! I have four pair now. I am not a runner but I wore them all day every day for 16 days while I was on a land/river tour in Europe. We did A LOT of walking and my feet did not hurt at all! I have issues with plantar fasciitis and it didnt bother me on this trip.

So comfortable! This is my 3rd pair of glycerins and the 20 has definitely improved on its cushion! The toe box is also much roomier and the show is now true to size (previously had to size up). Ive had the 18, 19, then tried hoka (not impressed) and now back to Brooks glycerin forever! I wear these to work as a nurse and get so many compliments on how cute they are with the fun bright colors!

These shoes are nothing g like the old Glycerins I had. The tongue is now detatched.(not a goodchange) the toe ox us much longer and wider(good change). I prefer the feel of the old style for its cushioning. Still a good shoe would like to see some of tge old traits incorporated back into the new shoe.

Too big. I've been wearing the same size Brooks for 15 years and this pair came in too big. Also, the toe room is too big. I ordered a 1/2 size down and the toe room is still too big and the shoe doesn't cushion my heel like it usually does with a new pair of shoes. Overall, I'm pretty disappointed and will be looking for a different brand.

First let me be honest and say that I'm not a runner, but I like comfortable shoes to walk in. I was originally thinking about the On Cloud 5 because I thought that the sole was really unique and it seemed like it would be cushioning. I went to a local store to try it on and did not like it. It felt bumpy when I walked in it.
I told the salesperson that I was looking for a sneaker to walk my dog and walk around the neighborhood that offered comfort and cushioning. She suggested either Brooks Ghost 15 or Glycerin 20. I tried both and at one point had the Ghost 15 on one foot and the Glycerin 20 on the other foot. I immediately felt that the Glycerin 20 was more cushy. The store had a limited color selection so I decided to check out the Brooks website and order direct. Since Brooks offered free shipping it was the same price as the store.
I used to wear New Balance, but feel that Brooks is more comfortable. I think that I've become a Brooks convert!
