This shoe disent meet the expectations from all the hype! The was torture for running after the first mile. The cushion soke is hard not soft as it looks. For the price Brook dosent exceed expectations. There's other brands cheaper and deliver. This shoe came with crease in the toe area which assist in pain while running. Not sure if Zappos sell defective shoes. Definitely not worth you time or money.

First Brooks sneaker I’ve purchased, and I’m very pleased. I typically go with ASICS, but their quality has dwindled lately. It took me a day to get used to them, but they’re awesome. Feels stable, despite being a neutral shoe.

The cushion is amazing however the width even in the mens sizing (I usually wear women’s shoes) is narrow. Couldn’t keep because it hurt the outside of one foot

I liked that the Brooks Glycerin Max provided a roomy toe box; however after wearing them for a full shift in the hospital, the base of my L pinky toe ached so much I had to switch shoes. They did okay on my first run of 3mi but the heel drop almost puts too much pressure onto the toes.

Love this shoe! Easy to tell it's made of good, high quality material and the extra cushioning is fantastic. Extremely comfortable.

It's a good easy day shoe. I like it more than the non-max Glycerin 22 because it has a better true-to-size fit, but not as much as I liked the Glycerin 21. It's the heaviest shoe I've ever owned, so it isn't something you'd want to run fast in. I'll be happy to use this for my Sunday runs this year, but even happier if they fix the sizing on the Glycerin 23 next year.

Most comfortable Brooks I have ever worn and I've been a Brooks fan for at least 10 years.

True to size. Took a bit of getting used to size/shape, but a very comfortable shoe. I’m very happy with the purchase.

I have traditionally worn Nike Pegasus but wanted something different for increasing miles. Some of my military friends said to try these and they were right. I've never run in a max cushioning shoe before, and what difference.. Being a bigger guy (6'2", 230), I'll never go back to anything else. The cushioning in the Max is on point. They feel "squishy" when in them, but they are stable and the cushion remains throughout the run. And due to the shape, it feels like they're pushing me forward, with my toe almost never touching the ground. The first run in them bettered every run stat with nothing else changed. I'm a believer.

Having had severe hallux rigidus in both feet for last decade, I had given up hope for pain-free walking until I got these. What relief, and an absolute new lease on life. They may be some of the goofiest shoes I've ever had, but wonderfully comfortable.

I'm 180 lbs and got these for long easy miles (~10:30min/mi), but they weirdly shine at higher paces (< 8:00min/mi)-- the foam compresses more and gives a nice bounce, and the (aggressive) rocker helps propel you. If they loosen up and feel less stiff over time, they'll be the perfect long run shoe, but right now I like them best for tempo/threshold runs.

The shoe is great. It fits true to size and offers the comfort and support I want whether I am walking or running. One issue, for the price of the shoe, I was disappointed that a shoe lace arrived frayed.

I've had a horrible experience thus far, the cushioning is not durable and my feet were hurting a lot after the tenth mile I ran in them. I will never buy another pair of brooks!

As someone with wider feet and bunions, this shoe really helps with the space it provides. Not to mention, it feels luxurious.

The Brooks Glycerin Max are absolutely incredible. They are expensive but your feet and body are worth it. I am so glad I made this purchase and my body is too.

My new Glycerin Max' are perfection. I have absolutely one thing I'd like.a version with black lowers for outside walking. Black uppers are perfect but eventually lowers will get dirty, grass stained, etc.

Great comfort on my runs. I first thought the more material for the back of my foot was needed but it seems to work great. I was disappointed that one of the laces arrived frayed. Wonder how that got by quality control?.?

Best walking shoe. I think it's very stable and extremely comfortable. I personally didn't like it for a run since it as so much cushion on the upper that it was hot for the Florida weather. But overall a great training shoe and good for walking and recovery run paces

Great for running, but not so much for walkingwhich is how I use the shoe most. There's so much cushioning that it actually feels a bit unstable. I think a stability option would really help with this model.
