Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin GTS 21

I don't run - I have bone on bone in one of my knees and it turns out Brooks are the only shoes that minimize the pain

About 50 miles on them so far. Seems like another good iteration. Glycerin seem like the best running shoes for me. Wide enough toe box, nice cushion, good support for my pronation, no hot spots on my feet, they look cool, and the tread on the bottom is durable.

This is definitely different from the typical Brooks sole. There is a greater rocker at the metarsal heads which takes some getting used to. Definitely very cushy from heel to that point. Good for roads but would not use on trails due to muted feel. Also, outer sole rubber is great on dry clean pavement but if wet at all or dirty/sandy you definitely slide back a little with each stride. Am enjoying the thicker upper material this winter, but know this will get too sweaty in the summer, or heavy if it rains. Still a good shoe for a specific purpose.

This shoe was extremely comfortable overall for about a week, especially at the heel and arch. After about a week, a "notch" or "fold" began to develop in the anterior reinforced part of the shoe surrounding the toes. Each time I take a step, the fold digs into the interior-superior surface of my big toe causing sharp pain. I'm wondering if this is just an outlier, or if it's all the Glycerin GTS 21's.

These newly purchased running shoes fit like a glove and provide the maximum amount of cushion that have become the usual expectation from a Brooks branded running shoe. Brooks is the epitome of consistency in form & fit when comes to quality and clearly superior running shoes.

I (a non runner) pre ordered these shoes in all black for my workplace and recovering heel pain. Breaking them in a few days before returning to work and all is well so far. Comfortable, not tight. Comfortable soles, not thin and hard. First impression is good.

Your best shoe yet!! It checks all the boxes.

Super comfortable and supportive.

I have the Glycerin GTS 20 and 19s. Bought the 21s and they feel nice but my only complaint is that the toe box is permanently dented on both shoes.

Best running shoe Ive owned. Used the Adrenaline GTS last year but these have a lot more cushion and a wider row box. Much more comfortable for my foot

LOVE these so much! Ran a marathon on them with little to no break in time. They are exceptionally better than the 20 model and the cushion upgrade is noticeable. Best shoe yet!!!!!!

I love these new Glycerin 21 GTS. I was in need of a new training shoe and these are perfect. They are incredibly lightweight but rigid. The look and feel of these shoes is exactly what I was looking for. They fit true to size. I would definitely recommend these shoes to someone looking for a durable but lightweight shoe. These shoes are awesome.

Very comfortable shoe, walk about 2 miles a day at work and at the end of the day my feet are not tired

Great support and cushioning. I have been wearing the Adrenaline for a few years and my feet needed more cushion, the Glycerin GTS 21 is a great solution for me. I also like some of the new features vs. the Glycerin GTS 20.

My first pair of Brooks Running and I now know why everyone uses Brooks for running. The shoe snugs you right enough for you to feel protected but loose enough to allow you to move your toes around. My favorite part is the bottom of the shoe where there is a ton of cushion designed for those hard impact running environments. Added bonus is that it gives you about another inch or two of height! :)

These are the shoes you need on your feet if you are wanting comfort with superior durability. I've put on over 50 miles in just 3+ weeks and these are holding up exceptionally well. Most of the miles are road with rain + about 12 miles of trail running. They have worn well and I are extremely comfortable for just a casual shoe as well. The colors of the blue white and orange are sharp in contrast that draw your eyes to the center width. I've received several compliments and look forward to all of the Brooks running line up going forward!

I enjoy running in them, though they feel a tad heavy, but the cushion is wonderful. I've experienced a little issue with small blisters in my feet but they might just be getting used to the new shoes. OVerall, I really like them and am glad I bought them.

Love these - perfect fit and support - pricey obviously -

I love the feel of the shoe. Its lightweight and cushioned and still has a soft and springy feel while remaining supportive. I used to where adrenaline gts but as my runs were getting longer I felt they were too hard. My longest run in these so far has been 6 miles and my legs and feet felt great.

These shoes are probably one of the softest shoes I own. I use them for my daily walks/runs outside in any weather. They are breathable and very comfortable. The cushionis made of almost a plush material and is very soft. It makes it so much easier to walk/run. The breathable fabric does not make your feet sweat.

It is still early as Ive only used these shoes a couple of times but they are comfortable. They do seem to run a bit smaller than the Glycerin GTS 20 so Im not able to put my inserts in yet but I think after a bit of use I will.

This pair of sneakers are true to size, and incredibly comfortable. They are great for extended use, causing no pain or aches. I use these to run a few miles each day, they hold up incredibly well and feel great on the feet. The shoes are really durable as well, not much, if any, wear and tear after repeated use. Im so happy these are in my workout rotation and look forward to the longevity of the sneakers.

These are some of the most comfortable running shoes I have ever run in! When running in my other running shoes I have struggled with foot soreness but these shoes have great arch support and the right amount of cushion. The result is that my feet feel great when running or walking in these shoes and I am not in pain after my hard runs like I was before. Overall the fit, both length and width, fit true to size. Some of the best running shoes I have run in!

I started using these shoes about two weeks ago and have enjoyed them overall. They needed a few days to break in but after that they were extremely comfortable. After breaking these shoes in, I was able to continue my running routine very comfortably. These shoes offer a ton of support and feel secure on my feet without being too tight. I have found myself wearing these shoes around after I finish my run because they are so comfortable that I dont want to take them off. I would recommend these shoes to anybody interested in running or looking for comfortable shoes to wear all day. The shoes are made from quality materials and are holding up nicely after a couple of weeks of use.

Just right in my opinion and the black is nicer as its more grey tones I wear a 10.5 2E
