Brooks Men's Glycerin GTS 23 Running Shoes

About This Item
WHAT OUR EXPERTS ARE SAYING: “The Brooks Glycerin GTS is an incredible shoe packed with numerous features for top-tier comfort! (This is a) great option for those who overpronate or have flat feet, giving extra arch support for those who need it. It’s also great shoe for someone like me, who just likes a more stable running shoe without sacrificing comfort. I feel so sturdy and I have much more control when I run my daily mile in these! The GTS system (GuideRails™ Technology System) gives great guidance and support without feeling too stiff or bulky, making it a great, stable option for everyday running and walking. The updated DNA TUNED midsole provides a super soft cushion while still providing plenty of responsiveness and bounce. This cushion is also nitrogen infused, making the cushion last much longer than traditional foam. Overall, I've had a fantastic experience in this shoe and I highly recommend it for all runners and walkers!” – Rian, Certified Running Expert at DICK'S Sporting Goods Myrtle Beach, SC

Give It Time To Break In Beforehand

This shoe needs to be broken in before endeavoring into long walks, runs or everyday activity. Once you do that, they’re comfortable and the stability is great.

Heal Pain

I made the mistake of ordering a second pair before enough walking time in my first pair of Glycerin 23. I developed a pain in my left heal after a few days with the first pair. I returned the second pair without need to try them on. A credit came through promptly, thank you. I had not had a similar problem with the Glycerin 20 and was surprised. Something about the newer design caused the problem for me.

Didn't Work Out

Nice shoe, but not for me. I have balance issue's and the 25's are perfect for me. I thought I would give the 23's a try, because I needed some new colors to wear and unfortunately, the 23's did not work out. I felt unbalanced and like I might fall forward, so I had to return the shoes. Otherwise, they are nice to look at and will work for someone who doesn't need more stability.

Good Show With Little Less Chunky

Too chunky and less desirable colour options than my two year old pair of same model. That said, last model was super durable, if it’s the same then there’s a lot to be happy with.

Upgrade

I upgraded from my Glycerin GTS 22’s which I ran 1200kms in. Loved them from the moment I put them on. I bought identical sizing. At first the 23’s seemed a little tighter in the width area, but now after 50kms of runs all is good. I’m no pro and find it hard to distinguish too much difference. But very glad I upgraded.

Great Stable Runner

Great shoe so far. I used to run the Adrenaline GTS but I like the extra cushioning of the Glycerin whilst still providing support.

Great Balance Of Looks, Cushioning And Stability

I have thoroughly enjoyed my Glycerin GTS 23s in the White/Rain/Baltic Sea colourway. The shoe design looks great, the cushioning is quite plush, and I definitely feel the guiderails stabilising my foot, particularly between my heal and arch area. They feel more planted than my Glycerin 23s which I also love wearing and are extremely comfortable. The shoe is well built and of high quality and should stand up well to a fair bit of punishment. Highly recommend this shoe if you are looking for something that works well and keeps you comfortable whether it is for a run, standing around or for walking long distances.

Great Buy

This is the first time I ever bought a pair of Brooks!!! The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 is amazingly comfortable. The cushioning is soft without feeling mushy, protecting your joints on every step. The GuideRails offer great support, and the build quality feels premium and durable. Perfect for everyday runs or long shifts on your feet. Highly recommend!

Linda Lovelace Would Be Proud!

Run 5 miles 6 times a week on various terrains, I’ve been wearing Brooks since June 2007 onwards, they have come a LONG way since the Dyad’s!! I have back issues & I also wear full size orthotics in all my shoes. I don’t experience back issues In the Glycerin 23 GTS, I’m used to Glycerin 21. Compared to the Glycerin 21’s the Glycerin 23 GTS’s have a fatter and better all round tongue, plus better cushioning, I’m very happy with my new pair!

Comfortable And Easy To Wear Immediately!

I always order the GTS models and this time I didn’t, which was my mistake. I realized that I liked the GTS models better on my first outing in these shoes. Still, the shoes are great for walking around and my husband has been after me for years to order a pair in black with black soles so that I can wear them when I am in black jeans or pants. He likes the look and they are very comfortable. I initially bought them for the increased volume in the toe box but I think I will stick with the Adrenaline and Glycerin models for my foot shape. Still, they are comfortable and I wore them for a 13 mile urban hike with absolutely no issues.

Super Comfy

I purchased the new Glycerin GTS 23 after wearing out my previous ones. The new shoes have great cushioning, are super lightweight but sturdy and offer great support. They look pretty good too. A top walking and excellent everyday running shoe.

These Are Excellent!

These are excellent. Best I’ve found. I overpronate a bit especially on long runs when I get fatigued. These shoes have just the right amount of stability and structure (guide rails?) and plenty of cushioning, but without the “bouncy pillow” vibe. I bought a second pair to rotate.
