Advice for Road Runners: The Brooks Men's Glycerin Max Running Shoes offer incredible underfoot comfort and performance for daily miles.
Watch our to find out more.
Underfoot Feel
DNA Tuned consists of two types of nitrogen-infused foam. The white coloured foam features larger cells - offering a very soft underfoot feel. In contrast, the blue coloured foam features smaller cells - delivering greater energy return.
With more of the larger cells positioned in the heel, and more of the smaller cells placed in the forefoot, you should experience ultra-cushioned landings, followed by energetic toe-offs.
As the Brooks Glycerin Max Running Shoes have a very high stack height, and prominent rocker geometry, the midsole feels exceptionally protective and propulsive.
Even though these are neutral running shoes, the midsole is very broad - which makes it inherently stable.
Overall, the Glycerin Max feels exceptionally comfortable, forgiving, and propulsive to run in.
Fit Guide
The Brooks Glycerin Max Running Shoes have a linear last. This means they'll accommodate a broad range of foot shapes - including runners with broader foot shapes.
With a premium triple jacquard upper, the mesh feels very comfortable. Padding around the heel collar, and inside the tongue, adds to this sensation.
Ideal Run Type
The Brooks Men's Glycerin Max Runnings Shoes are very versatile. First and foremost, they make slower-paced miles and long distances feel easier. This is because they offer so much protection.
However, unlike some max-cushioned running shoes, they offer great performance for steadier runs too. The prominent rocker and energetic forefoot foam makes it easier to pick up your pace and sustain it.
Ultimately, the Brooks Glycerin Max Running Shoes have the potential to significantly improve your running and make the miles more enjoyable.

Sizing Advice
Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone's feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.
Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb's width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).
This usually means that your running shoe will be at least a half size bigger than your regular shoe size though this can vary from brand to brand.
