Brooks Glycerin Models

Within the Brooks Glycerin series, you'll find three variants: the Glycerin, the Glycerin GTS (Go-To Support), and the Glycerin Max. Each model is designed with the same goal in mind: ultimate comfort. They differ in support and cushioning. The standard Glycerin is perfect for neutral runners seeking a smooth and soft ride. The Glycerin GTS offers additional support for runners who overpronate, thanks to the integrated GuideRails technology. Looking for maximum cushioning for long distances or a heavier build? Then the Glycerin Max with its thicker midsole is an ideal choice.

Cushioning, Comfort, and Technology in the Brooks Glycerin

What makes the Brooks Glycerin so popular is the DNA LOFT v3 cushioning. This nitrogen-infused foam layer provides exceptionally soft and resilient shock absorption without sacrificing responsiveness. This makes long runs feel less strenuous and gives you more energy with every step. The sole adapts to your running style, ensuring a natural and comfortable ride even after dozens of training kilometers.

Special attention has also been given to fit and comfort. The Brooks Glycerin is available in a wider fit, so runners with broader feet can also enjoy a comfortable fit. The soft upper hugs the foot without causing pressure points. The shoe is sturdy enough to support your foot on various surfaces.

Choose the Right Brooks Glycerin for Your Running Style

To make sure you pick the right model, consider your running style and support preferences. Are you a neutral runner? Then the Glycerin 21 is a great choice. Need extra support on the inside of your foot, for example if you overpronate? Then the Glycerin GTS is the better option. Seeking maximum cushioning for long distance runs or if you carry extra weight? Then the Glycerin Max provides extra comfort with its thicker sole. Each model comes in standard and wide widths to enhance wearing comfort.

Who Is the Brooks Glycerin Suitable For?

The Brooks Glycerin is designed for runners who value comfort and cushioning. This makes it an excellent choice for beginners, dedicated runners, and anyone recovering from injury. Thanks to the additional shock absorption, the Glycerin is also suitable for heavier runners and heel strikers. The wide fit option and stable design also make it ideal for runners with wider feet or those in need of greater stability over long distances.
