I have been a long time user of Glycerins. These Glycerin Max are too heavy for me. Also, they feel a little clunky. That said, they are very comfortable. I will keep them for casual wear and for walking, but I will stick with Glycerin # for my runs.

Ran 6 miles...5 miles and 10 miles this week in these shoes and my feet hurt after every run. Walking in them they feel super comfortable. Running in them was a problem. Maybe it's the way I run but I really never had issues with other running shoes. Like I said they are super super comfortable starting out but in time they hurt my feet.

I delayed reviewing the shoes primarily because I required time to heal from wearing a different brand. Today, as I was out, I realized how wonderful my feet felt. The shoes provide excellent support and cushioning. I typically go barefoot as much as possible, but when venturing into the great outdoors, it is comforting to have both comfort and added stability. As an older individual, I appreciate the knowledge and scientific research that went into the Glycerin Max.

Beautiful confortable shoe but a bit heavy. After 10 miles the feeling of the weight became more prevalent.

I really loved (almost) everything about the Glycerin Max!. Unfortunately, the thick padded collar was very uncomfortable and I had to return it

I'm a 48 yr old male, I'm 5'9", 168lbs. I was looking for a comfortable long run shoe to continue my low heart rate training. The shoe is certainly very comfortable. The fit length wise is true to size and the depth and volume is roomy. However, I've found it difficult to keep my HR down for whatever reason. Obviously it's a heavy shoe but I expected that. The build quality is fantastic and I have no doubt the durability is top tier as well.

I have a lot of foot issues but these shoes make it so much less than other shoes Ive tried. I just bought my second pair a half size bigger than the first and they are even better!

Just bought a pair I love them for the cushioning. Id give them a 4.5 out of 5. Why only 4.5? Because nursing home neutral should not be a color for running shoes

I have a lot medically going on with my right foot and it has a tendency to swell...thanks for making such great comfortable shoes...i'm not a runner...just an older person trying to stay off the much dreaded scooter. It was a God send to see these shoes come out.

Loved this right out of the box. Soft, but a little snap. Feels pretty stable despite the high stack height. Great!

Very good cushioning and feel lighter than they look. These are similar to the NB More V5s as far as max cushioning goes and provide a nice springy feeling. My only negative was the lack of color options and of course now that Ive purchased mine, theyve come out with some new ones. Oh well:(

Amazing daily trainer that gets me through a lot of my runs indoor and outdoor. I will make them a race day shoe in 2025.

It's a nice shoe. Very comfortable. I really like it and like the color. I bought a 10.5 size shoe. But I am not sure if it's the right fit for me. It comes only as a regular/medium size, and it seems a little bit tight for me. I have to untie and tie the laces every time I need to wear the shoes. It's very annoying and frustrating as well as tiresome. It hurts my fingers as I have to kind of put effort and struggle to inset my feet. I wish they made it in wide-width size. But I am still giving it a try to see if it loosens up over time. If not then I will have no other option but to return those.

Great daily trainer shoe for clocking easy and long runs. The cushion makes a huge difference and I feel like I notice it throughout the whole run. Makes easy miles fun and springy. Really eliminates to need to have an extensive rotation as these can cover such a wide range of runs. I still go for the Hyperion maxs for workouts, but reach for these every other run of the week now. 300 miles in and they feel as springy as when they were new!

Coming from wearing my Nike invincible 3 and adidas Adios pro 3. These are a serious comfort game changer. Yes, Im a real person and not paid reviewer. Go try these on or order them asap!

My new favorite shoe!! I have a few max cushion shoes, while all very comfortable, they dont compare to these. Very well cushioned and fairly stable. Need new colors soon!

First off, I'm not a runner. But I do work in a big box store and average 20,000 steps a day. These have been a god send. The Hokas were too cushioned and the New Balance was too stiff. I love these so much I bought a spare pair.

I am 6'-4", and about 280#. This shoe is very cushy, which makes them great for long runs. These are my go-to shoes for anything over 5k, now. I have plenty of room in the toe box, but they feel a little loose through the mid-foot. I have to tighten them quite a bit to get them to stay in place. The only two true negatives I have to say about this shoe are:
1) This is NOT a good looking shoe.
2) I would have liked the base to be a little wider. The shoe is tall to add the extra cushion, and it's a bit like running on a squishy platform. At then end of a long run, I have to be careful not to roll an ankle, which I think would be remedied with a little wider bottom.

From the look to the feel, this shoe is amazing and just might get me running again. I use them for daily wear for work and out & about. The fit, feel, and style is sooooo good. I want to buy 10 pair to keep me stocked up for awhilebut Im also excited for how this shoe will be tinkererd with and other color ways that may come. FWIW Im not a tiny fella & the support from these shoes is magnificent. Awesome jobs all around!

I bought these for more casual use. The shoes are CRAZY comfortable, and have great stability to boot. They are pricey, but worth every dime.
