Shoes are OK, I don't like the laces because my hand is bad and cannot tie shoes. I replaced the laces with no tie flourescent orange laces. I get lots of compliments on my shoes.

I don't, Can't, run. I purchase shoes for comfort and hope they help me walk easier. These are very comfortable. I'm now using a rollator when walking and these shoes really work great for me. This is my second pair.

These are my first pair of Brooks. They are just as awesome as I've been hearing. I actually have room for my toes and they are super comfortable. I'm not a runner, I wear these at work and I'm on my feet for 8-10 hour shifts. They have replaced my Nikes and Adidas.

I am a pharmacy technician and on my feet 90% of the day. I've tried so many other brands of shoes that left my feet and ankles hurting by the end of the day. I have heard good things about Brooks shoes before but didn't think they would be any better thank my Hoka rejects I have. I too the quiz on the website and the Glycerin GTS 20 is what it recommended. I have it a try and loved it so much that I bought a second pair. Thank you for saving my feet, ankles, and knees! Finally some comfortable, supportive sneakers. Thank you Brooks! Customer for life.

These shoes are my new go to for sure! I've tried 3 different brands and these were recommended by road runner's fit finder. I didn't purchase them in store at the time and went with another brand. Should have bought them but since I had the results went back to check and ordered them recently. I bought one of the limited editionsand they look and feel amazing. I couldn't be more happy with the purchase and will most likely never buy another brand of running shoe after getting a pair of brooks. These are easily the most comfortable shoes I've had in the last 10 years. I broke my left foot in 3 places several years ago and have to wear shoes with more comfort and these do the job while going for 3 mile walks with my dog. She's happy I have them so she gets longer walks and I'm happy to wear some rock n roll looking running shoes and feel comfortable while doing so!

I'm not a runner I use them for work since I stand/walk on cement all day.. best shoes I've ever had on. Only shoe that doesn't have my feet throbbing all day long. Thank you for a quality shoe that lives up to its name.

Disclaimer: non-runner here. 45M 6'2 250lb Dad. I wear Brooks running shoes every day to my office job and then change them out for a different pair when I get home/weekends. I buy Brooks 11.5W due to the exact fit they provide when using my custom orthotics. I've worn Brooks Glycerin GTS's for years and I only buy new ones when the oldest one's in my fleet finally lose their "spring". In this case, the oldest ones were 12 years old and are still OK for casual comfy around-town shoes. Even the laces are still in near-new condition (!). Brooks running shoes are almost indestructible and last many years. Here's a tip to keep them clean: once a week surface-clean them with hot water, a little Tide and a old toothbrush. Cedar shoe trees help too. Outstanding shoes - will only buy Brooks.
I'd also recommend:
Asics

They are extremely light, feels like slippers and very supportive and comfortable when I walk.

I shifted to the Glycerin from the Adrenaline as I needed more cushioning for my now-70 year old ankles and feet. This did the trick. I finished a full road marathon in them a week after turning 70 and had no foot or ankle issues. Zero pain in the week after the race and was running comfortably again three days post-race. Very pleased.

I recently wore out the same model after multiple training sessions and 5k events. I went back to what works for me. I have a slight pronation inwards. These shoes are super comfy and have plenty of give.

these shoes are great. fit well. lots of cushioning.
I have bad big toe arthritis and researched shoes that would help---these are doing great with no symptoms with running which is my goal.

I've been searching for a good running shoe that holds up and gives me a break from the ankle/knee pains that I have. I've tried countless shoes from many companies (Nike, New Balance, Adidas, Hoka, ASICS, and Saucony) but none have been as great as the Glycerin GTS 20. It's so good I have one for work (where I'm on my feet for 12 hours) and one for running.

I'm using this shoe for walking and standing for long periods of time. The shoe looks great in black and has good support and cushioning. Great for Plantar Fasciitis.

I'm a heavier runner and need solid support and cushion to protect my joints. I have been very satisfied with these. I jog about 12-15 miles per week. These have held up well for the several months I've had them. The cushion still feels consistent and supportive. I am confident I will get several more months out of them.

The shoe is wonderful, I haven't had this comfortable of a shoe in 10 years. Great for long walks. I have a two year old and will walk at his pace and my other shoes weren't cutting it.

Best shoes I've ever owned. Was having a lot of heel/Achilles pain post-surgery. But once I bought these shoes, I've noticed the pain has been subsiding significantly. Thank you, Brooks!
