Why We Like The Brooks Glycerin 21 Shoe

The Brooks Glycerin 21 Shoe is back again for another run just like we are. These maximum cushion road running shoes boast a breathable and supportive warp knit upper, an evolved DNA LOFT v3 midsole that drives us forward mile after mile, while the 10mm of drop helps us set new PR's or keep pounding the pavement for a few extra miles.

New Shoes Size 12 2E

Great feeling shoes. Lots of cushion but still feel stable. Price was good too. I now have two pairs I will rotate.

I bought my first pair of Brooks (as a teacher it wasn’t an easy choice as they are not cheap). I would only be using the shoes to coach volleyball 3 days a week 2 hours at a time. After my 3rd time wearing them they started falling apart. The base of the shoes was wearing down and pieces of my shoe was routinely found on the volleyball court. I contact Brooks support and explained the situation and they sent me a replacement pair. Unfortunately, after only the 2nd use of the replacement pair they started to fall apart as well but even worse then the first pair. The inside of the 2nd shoe is now bent down into my big toe. I am very disappointed! Not to mention these shoes are not cheap! The fit, style, and comfort is all great but the overall factor the shoe comes off as VERY cheaply made! Sorry Brooks! You dropped the ball on this!

I loved my first pair of glycerin 21s. Walked all over New York City and feet felt great! Ordered another pair and didn’t feel they were quite as comfortable for some reason. They seem to rub on the inside area of my heel! Perhaps this will get better as I walk in them. Overall, I think is a good shoe for me.

Painful

There is something seriously wrong with the area of the laces/tongue that meets the toe box of these shoes. It feels like hard glue or plastic that is not flexible and quite painful. I loved my glycerin 20s but these are unbearable. Unfortunately I had to return these, but really wanted to love them.

Uncomfortable

Podiatrist recommended these. Got them and the only negative thing is where the tongue is sown on its a thick area that makes wearing the shoe uncomfortable
