Great for running on sidewalks. Tend to run on the outside of my foot, and previous shoes were hurting my shins/ankle/etc. due to lack of support. These work great tho and I barely feel any pain

Glycerin is nice comfort, but little support. I prefer the Adrenaline. I wish there were better color schemes for Adrenaline or the same color schemes available as the Ghost

Dark colored tops/fabric area and white bottoms are really not a good look. If you have dark top make the sole dark not white. Definitely need more neutrals that go with everything. Gray, off white, tan, peach, taupe, light pink, rose and white combo

I am not a runner. I am a sedentary 66 year old with osteoarthritis of my knees and hips. I average 3000 steps a day. My family and I visited Las Vegas where I knew there would be lots of walking. I have 2 pairs of Glycerin GTS 21. I alternated pairs and you need to know that I averaged up to 20,000 steps per day with minimal discomfort. This would not have been possible without my Brooks! Thank you for an exceptional product!

I ordered Glycerin GTS 21 a month ago and I added Dr. Scholl inserts that support my arches and heels. My feet feel much better after standing long hours in the store.

The shoes are comfortable but unfortunately the area where the tongue and lace come together put an odd pressure on the top of my foor make the shoes uncomfortable for all day use.

Great shoe! Can walk long distances but other competitors dont make my feet hurt as much as these. High price while competitors are lower. Im also not a fan of all the writing on the side of the shoe. Performs better on the road than walking on grass. Recommend this shoe since its still a quality buy.

Really loved this as my stability shoes. I tend to overpronate and this has support on the sides but soft at the same time that it doesnt limit my movements. It didnt give me any ankle pains even while still breaking in. The cushioning is good too and perfect for my long runs!

I am a city carrier for USPS and walk approximately 15k steps a day. Brooks is my absolute favorite shoes! The glycerin gts 21 is lightweight, breathable and so comfortable! My shoes typically last about 6 months which is great considering I wear them everyday to work.

They do the job well. My hip had been bothering me before the new sneakers, but it stopped afterwards.

Still breaking them in. Had foot surgery so they are snug on my foot, not sure if because the toe is sensitive or if it is made smaller than the Glycerin GTS 20. I'm guessing just because the toe is still sensitive. Overall, they are a nice looking shoe. I don't think a person can go wrong with Brooks, they are just all around nice, comfortable shoes especially for people like me that have feet issues.

The absolutely most comfortable sneaker!! I didnt buy them to run with, just as a walking shoe. They are very roomy and worth every penny!!

They are very comfortable. I'm on my feet a lot. I'm a nurse. They are more comfortable than the adrenaline or the ghost.

Beautiful shoes in all black (finally!) but don't help my metatarsalgia. My glycerin 13's did help and even my several-years-old ghosts are better, but I need something that works better, so I'll be sending them back unfortunately.

It's a very good shoe, what doesn't work for others, It just might work for you. Try it, sometimes we let reviews discourage us. Everybody has different feet.

These sneakers are perfect for me, a 61 YO young woman! I utilize for long walks, Orange Theory, personal training and everyday use! Although I have a variety of other sneakers by different manufacturers in my closet these are my go to! In fact I am going to order another pair!

I have been wearing these for about a week now, and just walked 9.8 miles the other day, a first for me. I have knee and ankle conditions that usually cause me quite a bit of pain, and I had minimal pain after nearly 10 miles. Previously, I wore Hoka Bondi and thought no sneaker could be better. These are similar, but better because they offer stability as well as incredible cushioning. I am very pleased with the sneakers. I ordered my usual size and I have plenty of room in the toe box, and the heels fit perfectly on my narrow feet. Very happy with the sneakers!

As a hospital housekeeper I run 8+ hours a day. These are so wonderful I don't feel my feet at all. It is like being propelled forward in motion and I am energized by my shoes. Thank You Brooks! My PT prescribed these for me in 2006 after my last double knee surgeries. I couldn't afford them ongoing because of raising 3 boys with size 15 feet and we wanted the best brands for them. Now I can afford what keeps me able to work 40 hours a week. These shoes are a success.
