I've worn these for a week,4 10 hr. shifts and my feet still bothered me at the end of the day. Not, as cushioned as I thought they we would.

Always wore Adrenaline but they seem to have gotten to be to firm under foot. Needed more cushion with GTS. Glycerin seems to fit the bill so far.

Great shoe is a very comfortable shoe. I am new to the brooks shoes and I am trying different Brooks style to determine my go to shoe. Have always worn MBT, but so far I will definitely stick with brooks.

I purchased Brooks at the advise of a friend. I am not a runner by any means, but I do stand a lot sometimes, and walking is not always very comfortable for me. I have to admit I was a dubious at first, because when I tried on the shoe, it did not have that nice soft cushiony sole I was expecting. I decided to give them a fair chance, and I'm glad I did. They are surprisingly more comfortable to walk in that my 'cushiony' sneakers. They seem to line my feet, knees and hips up perfectly, if that makes any sense. I notice I take longer strides and it just feels like I have more energy in my legs. I will definitely purchase more and recommend them to my friends.

Unfortunately, for me, these felt like running in army boots. Very stiff and difficult to get on and off. I didn't feel the cushioning. Positives are roomy toebox and great traction. I loved my G20 but the 21 was causing pain. Brooks made the return process easy. I bought the new G22, and I'm back in heaven.

I am not a runner. I wear my brooks Gts21 for walking and everyday use. I have bunions and arthritis in my feet. I need support, a wider width and cushioning. I ordered a womens 11 wide. I found the toe area to be very comfortable, I can move my toes around. The arch support is good. The cushioning and sneaker flexibility is also very good. I sometimes wear inserts, I added half a size to my regular size to accommodate the insert. Sometimes I add an air-pillow insert for a little extra padding. No problem fitting them in with the sneaker insert in place. The black is a nice dark black and the black and white is a nice sportier look. I was a HOKA user for years and I wont be going back. Their wide widths look funny, unusually wide, and are hard to drive in. They are not padded enough and feel awkward, like my feet are heavy. I much prefer the Brooks, and the GLYCERIN GTS 21 is a solid, quality sneaker that looks good too. Great return policy makes it all win-win.

I absolutely love these shoes. They are so comfortable especially being on your feet for 12hours and not being able to sit down much. I love how much cushion there is. Ive never had a shoes that is this comfortable. I work in the medical field and Im on my feet majority of the time. I also have a pair for clinical because I am in nursing school and they make a difference. Im very comfortable during my long clinical days. If you buy them you will not be disappointed. Brooks will always be my got to! In addition I love how I am able to chose the width of the shoes as well which made the fit of the shoe even better because I have so much room.

These are my favorite running shoes. Ive bought three pairs so far. They hold up well with daily running and with all the cushioning I no longer suffer from the arthritis pain in my knee after a run.

I have heel spurs and I own a pair of Ghost Max shoes that I love. These went on sale and had great reviews. After doing some reading, and checking out the specs, it all looked like theyd be great for daily walking, and Id save some money. Unfortunately thats not the case. If you have feet issues, stick to whats comfortable.

Bought these for the gym. Ive never owned a pair in my life but these shoes have done wonders for my feet! I have issues with my feet going numb and I believe these have helped in that area tremendously. They feel like Im walking on a cloud!

Im still in the breaking in process and feel they are a little wide. It seems like the right shoe is wider in the heel than the left. Otherwise, I like them. I would like to be added to your over 70 group to demo the shoes and give reviews if you can. And would like to be on the list for complimentary samples if you can. Brooks are the only tennis shoes I now wear. Thank you.

I am a walker, not runner and these are fantastic! The side rails are the absolute best and have saved my feet. I love the roomy toe box and sized up one full size - extra pair of socks and I am ready too go. HIghly recommend this shoe to all walkers and runners.

Im not a runner, but I walk my dog 2-3 times a day when the weather is decent so that we can both get exercise. I under pronate, or supinate, which has caused some hip issues, so I was looking for a well cushioned shoe with some support that would also work with my Aetrex orthotics, and this shoe fits the bill. Its incredibly cushioned and feels great to walk in or stand in. Its a little less supportive than I like, but I tend to wear a firmer, tighter shoe during the day when Im running errands (NB 327), miles high I know this is not meant to be. Overall, Im happy with the shoe and think it will be a good one to wear in rotation and on my longer walks. I sized up a half size (from 8 to 8.5) to allow extra room, and they fit comfortably on my narrow feet.

Actually, I had to return my purchase. The shoe quickly created painful calluses on the outside edge of both feet. I enjoyed the wider toe bed.

Love the new sportier, redesign! Fit is a bit roomier, which is GREAT because I wear a womens 9W! LOVE Brooks Glycerin21s!
