Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin GTS 20

If you have wide feet and still want something sturdy and comfortable, the Glycerin 20 is for you. Not all "wide" shoes are the same, but these definitely have plenty of room on the upper portion of the foot where I need it. I only wish they had more colors to choose from when you need a wide shoe.

Love these shoes. Wish the shoe string stayed tied better.

I had high expectations for a really significant shock absorbing feature in these shoes. Although, the sole is more like a marshmallow, it didn't give me that huge bounce I was hoping for.

This is a well fitting show and is very comfortable. The Glycerin 14 is still my all time favorite running shoe. I loved the sole on it because it had good traction so if I was running or walking on a slippery surface it didn't let me slip.

Really liked the comfort and extra padding. My only issue is that the heel is too high for my right foot that was injured in my teens. I find that I get a blister after 4 miles and need to try to figure out how to stop that or I will be forced to wear the sneakers on shorter walks. It has helped to lessen the pain in the sole of my feet though. And that makes this shoe a win for me.

Awesome shoes. I work 12 hour shifts on concrete, walking over 13 miles a night. Most nights my feet do well in them with minimal pain by the end of the night.

I really like the feeling of these on. I tried on probably 10 different running shoes and these were by far the most comfortable. I do notice my laces tend to loosen so I find myself retightening and trying mid run. I haven't tried other lacing techniques or double knotting yet, but am still very happy with the shoe.

Super comfortable shoe, it has room in all the right places and my feet never ached while wearing them. The only reason it is not a 5/5 is because of the sizing disparities.

These feel great. Great support. Look great from the top. The only thing I wasn't expecting was for the soles to have a "marshmallow" like appearance. Which is very apparent with white soles. Recommend the shoe, but would say do not choose an option with white bottoms. Literally looks like marshmallows.

Comfort is amazing! They are tending to run bigger than my other Brooks, but the shoe strings are driving me crazy they are flat and will not stay tied! This is the only big downside soon I'll be replacing the shoe strings.

The shoes are great but the laces are terrible. They are forever coming untied. The older Glycerines had better laces.

glycerin 20 just what i needed as i currently have knee pain and the extra cushion is helpful.

I am a walker and a faithful Glycerin wearer and have been waiting for the 21's to come out. But my shoes needed to be replaced, so I ordered a pair of limited edition 20's (jade/blue/ebony). They have the same comfort I enjoyed in the past, but I do not care for the look of the fabric on the toe. My old pair were navy with lavender laces and had more of a tweed look to the fabric (navy with lavender dots). I think my new pair would look better with the same type of fabric to coordinate with the fancy painted soles. This is the only reason I did not rate them as a 5 star.

Good show- wish there were a few more bright , fun designs. My first brooks ever were hilighter yellow and I used hot pink laces. Love something with some fun!

I believe I like the 19 better. The foot pad on the 19 seems more durable.

This shoe is great I use them for my medium length runs. Super cushiony! I do prefer the ghost 15's though.

I bought these for walking miles at Disney. They were absolutely perfect in every way. 8-10 miles/day.

They are good if you're on your feet up & walking around all day. Not too good if you're standing in place for a long period of time.

This is a very comfortable version of the Glycerin although the Glycerin 18 is still the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. The Glycerin 20 doesn't seem quite as cushioned as the 18 and it has a chunkier sole. That being said it still is comfortable for running as opposed to the Glycerin 19 which made my feet fall asleep. The uppers on the 20 are really pretty and seem as durable as my 18's, which after many miles show no wear other than road dirt. I feel very satisfied with the Glycerin 20.

Very comfortable!! My only complaint albeit very minor is this shoe is just a little harder to slip on. Great support and comfort though.

Has a lot of cushion and fits true to size, BUT it did not have enough arch support. I have high arches and have tried other brooks styles without noticing a significant difference between arch support. Definitely need an insert if you have very high arches.

These shoes are very comfortable, but the shoes laces will not stay tied. I have been wearing this model for years and this has never happened. Please continue to offer a few colors that are not too wild. I am a senior and have to wear athletic shoes every day due to pain issues. Wild colors don't work for me!
