not easy to get on.. the tongue is attached to the shoe, so it can't be pulled up and out... once on, the shoe isn't super comfortable, kind of stiff.. the regular Glycerin is much better. Plus the toe of the shoe seemed to point upward, ..kind of like an 'elf' shoe look
I'd also recommend:
Brooks Ghost and Brooks Glycerin / regular

I'm not sure I like them. The heal is weird, there is not enough room in the toe box.

Hard to get on, fits good but I ended up with foot and ankle cramps the night after wearing them. I have not had them on since but intend to try again.

Thought I would love. Returned because of narrow toe box and a bit to short. I love my Brooks Glycerin 21.

Unfortunately these did not work for me. I experienced right heel pain and overall too narrow. I wanted to love them but no joy.

I like that these have a lot of cushion, but my ankle turns over in them a lot and I now have an injury that I am worried about as my ankle hurts after moderate use. I really wanted to love these but this may just be something unique to me, but I do not have this problem with my Ghost 15, which I love. They are worn down so I needed a new pair but I think this is a return.

I have a high instep and the elastic fake tongue was too tight in that area.

An attractive comfortable shoe, but it shows the outline of my toes. Unless you have flawless feet, this may not be for you.

The shoe looks great and it has a lot of cushion. I do feel it snugs my heal too much and it rubs. I am a little disappointed I love brooks for running and I feel it's going to cause a blister. I won't be buying these again.

They are nice to wear but after having them for about a month the "paint" is starting to wear off. Worn once a day for about an hour 4 days a week. Not super hard on them otherwise fit is good and structural durability seems decent so far.

Men's glycerin Stealthfit 21 is more comfortable.

I had to return the Glycerin Stealth 21 model as I found it too narrow in the foot bed for me, I also did not like the difficulty it was to inserting the foot due to the tight fit at the ankle. I am going to try the regular Glycerin 21 as the comments indicate a wider foot bed. I have worn Brooks for several years and have liked the Ghost series, Adrenaline series and will try the Glycerin now.

Ironically, these are harder to slip into than my shoes that tie. For some reason, the shoes catch my socks and bunch them up when sliding into them. Also, they are too hot when temperature goes up. I am returning them.

Didn't like stealth fit due to fit of my foot and feet sliding forward in shoe without lacing close to ankle

Honestly they are killing my feet right now. The right shoe feels fine but the left one I've had to loosen the laces twice. I have a previous pair of the same shoes so I thought these would be great out of the box just like those ones.

I've been comparing the GLycerin 21 various models and this is the least comfortable. I felt unsupported and my ankles and arches hurt.

I guess I prefer a traditional tongue. There isn't much room for comfortable expansion if my feet are swollen. Something else that doesn't occur with my other Brooks, the toe box feels more narrow. Maybe it's just the material, but the inside of my big toe joint really sticks out in this shoe style. I really like my old Glycerins and hoped this model would be similar.

These shoes were a disappointment. They cramped up my feet, especially in the length and some in the width. This is my first time trying Glycerin Stealthfit. I am a fan of Adrenaline, Ghost & Glycerin, but the Glycerin Stealthfit were not for me.

They are very light and comfortable and provide a good stride but they attract dirt and I find myself cleaning the shoes way more often than I anticipated for only having them a short time. I did purchase a lighter color. I also question the integrity of the material itself for long term use. I personally would not wear them outside running or in the rain unless I bought darker shoes or didn't care about them getting dirty.

Very tight all over even though same size as every other Glycerin I've got (I have had at least 20 pairs up through Glycerin 20's) and interior is very rough especially band around the ankle. Feel is weirdly flat and not comfortable. They do not work well for me and my current favorites are Glycerin 19s.

I bought these shoes just as a walking shoes the loop in the back gave me terrible blisters. I ended up having to cut the entire tab off. I don't get why any brand would put such an uncomfortable feature this way on a sneaker? I purchased these through Dicks Sporting goods.it was too late to return them as I already had worn them a couple days.

Even with womens 12 this felt short. The toe box is also low, so if you've hammertoes, lookout. That said, the built in sleeve vs heavier cushion was terrific, especially if you need more flex in top of ankle area.
