Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin Max

I am a large guy and this is the best running shoe I have ever owned. The cushioning support for long runs is so refreshing. I am able to run longer and feel less fatigued when doing so. I will definitely be buying more can't wait to see some better colors in the men's.

A nice wide foot bed, and plenty of cushion! I have been loving these for long runs, recovery runs, walks, etc. Great shoe!

I absolutely love these. Im on my feet all day so worth the money

Highly recommend I bought these based on a recommendation from another woman my age (40s) who had recently gotten into running. I use them to walk approx 6 miles nearly every day. Its been about 3 mo since I started wearing them and while it took a little time getting used to the sole (thick and bouncy) I quickly understood why theyre structured in this way. They're so comfortable and supportive. I feel like my legs are getting stronger without my feet getting sore or tired. Looking forward to purchasing another color.

My wife's new go to shoe. She loves the color, fit & feel!

I have sesmoiditis and these shoes have been wonderful for my feet. They are stiff enough so the toe box does not bend and plenty of cushion to make walking comfortable again. Also, the drop is great for anyone dealing with forefront foot problems.

Omg so glad I bought them I was hesitant as they are pricey but they are so comfy and I'm more willing to go for a jog now because my feet don't hurt!!

Great shoe. Feels like walking on clouds and that's just what I need because I stand for 12 hours shifts.

I am always trying new running shoes to maximize my experience. Glycerin Max are the best by far. They almost seem to have a healing effect. When my shins or feet ache, I put them on and the pain is gone. I suppose it must be all the cushioning and stability but they are so comfortable I feel like I am walking on something celestial.

Just the shoe I was looking for! Super comfy with all the cushioning but does not feel heavy or bulky at all. Loving running in this shoe!

Most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. Have always worn Brooks, but I had foot surgery and was desperate for a more comfortable shoe and I upgraded to the new Glycerin Max and I will never buy another shoe except this brand.

Loved them so much, I got a second pair!

Comfortable and great after a couple of uses at Disney.

Love them. It is literally like walking on clouds. No more knee pain after my long walks.

Love these! I got these for my long runs and have put about 40 miles on them so far. They are really comfortable. The only thing is when I went on my first run I started to get a blister from the arch in the shoe. I just changed out the arch support to one that goes with my foot and that issue has gone away. Definitely recommend these and will probably buy again!

Love this Shoe!! Haven't wanted to take them off since I got them! I have plantar fasciitis and hallux rigorous. The cushion is amazing for my heel pain and the rocker design is the only thing that helps with the arthritis in my big toe.

Incredible cushion! I don't run (any longer.. so sad) but I wanted the maximum cushion and these are the IT shoe! Walking with an orthopedic boot right now and they are the perfect height and cannot wait to wear them walking with both shoes on!

I purchased the Glycerin Max from a different vendor (because my size/color was sold out on this site) and it is absolutely WONDERFUL! The superstack is soooo very comfortable! The feel is so extravagant, lush and plush that I don't know if I can go back to anything else! Please note that I am not an avid runner, per se. I walk and jog. I am 55 yrs young and have lower back pain when not wearing the right shoes. I have not experience pain with these shoes. The first pair of shoes I purchased were the Glycerin 22s and they are very comfortable as well (no pain, either). However, I took a nasty fall in them (purchased the wrong shoe for the way I walk) and then tripped again the very next day. So, I am exchanging them for the Glycerin 22 GTS. I believe they will work out better for me. Nonetheless, the max is the most comfortable, and the 22 is a close second. Quality vs Price: The quality is EXCELLENT. Well worth the price. Size: The fit is nice...not too snug and not too loose. I did go up a 1/2 size because the toe box is a little short. The width is perfect.

I bought these for my daugher who works in a hospital and is always on her feet. She loves them! She said you can tell an enormous difference in wearing these shoes as opposed to other shoes. I also love the way they look and want a pair for myself! I would highly recommend these to anyone looking for style and comfort.

great shoes and super comfortable

I have historically worn only stability shoes but due to a hip issue I need more cushioning and this shoe delivered! Very spongy and cushy ride. Game changer on the hip pain! I wear a 7.5-8 normal shoe, and consistently an 8.5 running shoe so that's what I bought. Probably could have sized down to an 8 but I'm so happy with the cushioning I didn't bother.

These are absolutely amazing!! I definitely think they will be my Chicago Marathon shoe in October!

I'm a triathlete and regularly train for Half Marathons, Ironman 70.3, and Full Ironman races. I've been running with three different shoes: Brooks Glycerin Max (size 9.5), Hoka Clifton (size 8.5), and Altra (size 10). Hoka and Altra feel roomier in the toe box and are better suited for wider feet. Brooks are a bit more snug, especially in the toe area, and I plan to exchange my size 9.5 for a 10 to give my toes more space. I usually run at least 5 miles during interval training, and for long runs I can go up to 12 or 13 miles with all three shoes. When my feet are fresh, the Brooks feel responsive and support longer runs, even though they're a bit heavier. That extra weight doesn't make much of a difference when your feet feel well-restedit actually helps me run longer without needing to stop or feeling fatigue in my feet. If you have normal-width feet, Brooks might work well for you, but for wider feet, Hoka or Altra would likely be more comfortable.

I really love this shoe, and definitely part of my rotation. Good cushion, but really stable feel with running/walking.

I have 2 pairs looking to get a 3rd LOVE THESE SHOES!!! they never hurt my feet even on a 8 hour long shift when I am on my feet the entire day. 10000% recomend. I don't even tie mine both of my pairs are just worn right out of the box with the set knot in them. I have never one retied them. I wear a 8 medium and i usual wear a 7-8 outside of brooks. I personally like the roomy feel to them, but they fell that way to me not tieing them tight
