Hi believe in run and all the runners. Thanks for this review. Here is my like. Glycerin is always... classics shoes. ..... ..no change... but I like it. A nice week for everyone. 🌧🏃♂️🌞
As a fan of the Glycerin’s for years i noticed that not all upgrades were a success. Currently i’m using the Glycerin 19’s & there ok but i’m not feeling the smoothest ride. So i’m def gonna test some other brands this year. Thx for the review
I have relatively wide feet and Brooks seem to fit me the best, for me the Glycerin 20 is the best option. Even if other shoes are "better" they fit me poorly and are useless. I'm a 5'11" 190 lifter/runner and these are perfect for easy days. Most of my days are easy because I'm slow lol.
I’ve been waiting for this shoe since the Aurora came out and I can’t wait to put miles in it (I also learned that I love Robbe giving reviews most! You’re awesome dude and I like the rest the gang too!)
Exactly what you said re having a wide foot and yet they are a little to wide. I never get blisters and took them on a half marathon and got one right on the inside edge of the area you’re taking about at the metarsals.
While we’re talking about cushioned trainers here, have you guys received the ON Cloudmonster yet? I tried it on at my favorite running store while visiting San Diego and it blew me away--bought it on the spot after trying on all the usual favorite highly cushioned shoes in my long-standing search for a long run shoe (so I can stop using up my Endorphin Speeds-my race shoes- on my marathon training LR's). The guys at the store had just gotten it and were equally shocked. 8 oz for the women's version, 6 mm drop. Don’t be influenced by past reactions to other ON shoes, because this one is different and quite exciting. The wow factor was similar to when I tried the Aurora BL. Very stable and roomy toe box in addition to being very cushy and responsive. Martha
Thanks for the review, guys. I have a question i am hoping the community can help with. I am 270 lbs male who is new to running. I read this would be a good shoe for me due to my weight and wide foot. I am test driving this shoe, and it feels okay, but im also new to the nuances that I should look for. Any tips or thoughts would be helpful as to whether or not to keep these shoes or try another pair.
I am heavier than you and for running shoes I’ve learned to stay far away from extra soft midsoles. Anything where you step in and they squish way too much and rock from side to side easily. At our weight we definitely need more support. I own the previous glycerins and they work great for me. I also have Skechers max road which I like and have a more supportive midsole.
I’ve never gotten a blister in a Brooks shoe but I would try this when the Stealth fit version is available. A different upper also can affect the way a shoe rides in general.
This shoe gets better as you put more miles on it. I have put almost 350 miles on my pair and the still feel great. I will probably put another 350 on them.
Running shoes are so personal ; I am 6’1” and 200 lbs so shoe might ride different for me; but this shoe was super nice surprise. At least for my height weight this shoe is super nice balance of cushion without being too soft .
🤔🤔🤔 Didn't Brooks come up with a different upper for the Glycerin 20… like a knit version? Like a stealth fit or something? From RTR's videos. Maybe that answers the blisters issue? Anyways, great review!👏🏻🔥👏🏻🔥
Hi, I don't know if I pronate more or not. I have just started training/running, heavyweight, height 1.85cm. Not looking for race or long marathons, just for daily 10km walk plus intermittent runs. Which would you recommend? GLYCERIN 20 REGULAR, OR WITH GTS? And apart from Glycerin, which shoe? Also considering Speed 3. I could buy two pairs, if it would help. Thanks!
I would say the brooks glycerin 20’s. Or any of the glycerin models. It’s got cushion like they say but not an extreme amount. It feels supportive and bouncy. I love them, I just don’t like running in them because I prefer a more responsive shoe with not much comfort when it comes to running. Either that or the new balance 1080’s. But brooks by far is the highest quality shoe money can buy.
@@paddywiggle thank u, it gets so confusing, i was abt to say “so its like hyperburst”, n then realized that hyperburst is also different in different shoes, like its softer in max road series than razor series! 😏😏
Stack Height: 34 mm heel / 24 mm forefoot, 10mm drop I have Aurora-BL too... Trial still out, but think I'll like Stealthfit 20 more... I got Stealthfit ( black / white ) couple days earlier... I originally wanted Glycerin GTS 20s but didn't like colors currently available... ( want all black uppers & midsole ) GTS 20s that have Guide Rails feel softer / bit mushier than Stealthfit; which was a surprise, because I thought Guide Rails would give GTS 20 more firmness cushion wise and more support / rigidity medially & laterally ( inside / outside edges ) of shoe... Once I tried on Stealthfit, it felt so, so good, I was sold... Can't wait to also try Stealthfit GTS when it's available... And Color ( Black / White Stealthfit ) Looks Really Good in person ( go to website to see actual color because it's not typical black uppers, white midsole )... Especially Looks Good When Wearing All Black Top Long Sleeves, & Black Compression Leggings Full Length... Stealthfit, Feels like a glove... Perfect fit. Not too tight, but a very comfortable glove fit... Feels Super light... Stealthfit is stretchy knit-type upper that hugs your foot and is a single tongue-less piece of material... Wider feet may not like fit.. I had custom insole, max cushion made... The shoe felt great without adding custom made insoles... I just like added cushion & support... Outsole / Midsole is wider & feels very stable... Traction of Outsole is Very Good / Grippy / Sticky... I've never had a shoe that feels bouncy / springy... Stealthfit feels bouncy / springy... I guess that's what they call Energy / Response Return... I'll try Glycerin 20 GTS try again when black uppers & white midsole comes out... ( Preferably want all black : Uppers & Midsole ) I've been using Adrenaline GTS 21, 22 lately & enjoy those very much with 22s feeling better than 21... I'm also interested in seeing new Beast with DNA LOFT V3... Adrenaline With DNA LOFT V3 Ghost With DNA LOFT V3 Thanks Sharing Video
Currently Brooks Hyperion Tempo.. Highly versatile. Feather Light and I like it for both slow paced heart rate controlled runs and tempo running. Have done 3 half marathons in them, still going strong.
@@dineshlalwani103 yeah fair enough! I was worried you were going to say Alphaflys or something haha. If the Hyperion Tempos work for you for everyday running, then I support your choice. I like the Velocity Nitro for simple, easy everyday miles
What marathon shoe do you guys recommend these days for a 6'4, athletic 225lb runner? Right now i have a rotation of NB 1080v11, Hoka Clifton 8 and Saucony Endorphin Speed (v2). But with a knee recovering from an injury looking at something that may make it easier for a long run. Thanks in advance

What athletic shoes are you currently wearing? How do they feel? Are they working out for you? What do you plan to do in Glycerin 20s: walk, run, casual, work? If you need some support try Both Versions... GTS with Guide Rails Non-GTS ( No Support )
@@Cardzfan1980 Well you might like one of the new Glycerin 20s: Non-GTS GTS Stealthfit Non-GTS GTS You May want to try: Adrenaline 22 Adrenaline 22 GTS And Ghost 14s They're All Brooks
@@Cardzfan1980 If Ghost 14s felt mushy... Then try Adrenaline GTS 22s which would be GTS equivalent of Ghost if Ghost came in GTS... Also I have custom made insoles for all my running / trail shoes & even some of my clip in cycling shoes... I Love the added support & addition cushion... And it helps eliminate Plantar Fascitis which I used to get often before... One of primary reasons I've continued using Brooks is because of the higher heel drops & fact that I've never gotten Plantar Fascitis with Brooks... All the other models I have gotten Plantar Fascitis when doing high mileage for several months... Hokas specifically feel great at start ( Very High Stack Heights ) but the low Heel-to-Toe drops seem to be what eventually causes me to get Plantar Fascitis & it comes on slowly so don't notice it until it's a problem & then there'd down time to recover... There's Nothing wrong with Hoka Brand... Lots of runners use Hokas for ultra marathons: 50, 65, 100, 150 mile races through some of most challenging road & technical trails... And that's what persuaded me to try Hokas & I spent 1000s loading up on & trying possibly 7 to 10 of their different models... But in the end results were same...

Very comfortable shoe until I walk or run in it. Very quickly developed knee pain. Felt like the forefoot was too thick and squishy and acted like a break, as if running in sand.
Guys! Guys! Write down some structure, huh?! This whole improvised thing is not your strength. The balance of cute humor to information needs to shift a bit more to more info and maybe some worked out jokey stuff.
@@Matt-zk6vc Hi Matt. I'm not upset, but you sure seem to be. Can't stomach a negative opinion. Maybe you should avoid UA-cam all together because people offer critiques all the time here. Get over it, buddy. It's all part of the fun.
My pair just came in, and I bought it off eBay new for 90 bucks! And they don't seem heavy. And hopefully the shoe breaks in and doesn't rub my toe so much.
Good gracious, this was hard to watch. I wanted to listen to the whole review but my ears got a blister, and couldn't. Good information, decently in-depth, but not presented in a fluid train of thought.
brooks makes some the best shoes on the market and the glycerin is my favorite.

Good morning Manuel, here is my like. Good day to you
@@paddywiggle ok thanks
Bought my first pair of Brooks, went with this shoe and it is the most comfortable shoe ive ever had. I want to buy more of their shoes now.
As a fan of the Glycerin’s for years i noticed that not all upgrades were a success. Currently i’m using the Glycerin 19’s & there ok but i’m not feeling the smoothest ride. So i’m def gonna test some other brands this year. Thx for the review
I just bought the gly 20 today, love it so much! Its responsive!
The Brooks Glycerin is the Goldilocks of cushioning. Juuuuust right. I doubled up because I like it so much
I have relatively wide feet and Brooks seem to fit me the best, for me the Glycerin 20 is the best option. Even if other shoes are "better" they fit me poorly and are useless. I'm a 5'11" 190 lifter/runner and these are perfect for easy days. Most of my days are easy because I'm slow lol.
Always happy to see Megan. You know you'll get good feedback if you like well cushioned shoes
Bummer on the blisties meg!!!!!! Danng, would love to hear from the rest of the crew on this. I was looking forward to the new foam
I’ve been waiting for this shoe since the Aurora came out and I can’t wait to put miles in it
(I also learned that I love Robbe giving reviews most! You’re awesome dude and I like the rest the gang too!)
I love that this one is wider than last years model, a much better fit for me.
Exactly what you said re having a wide foot and yet they are a little to wide. I never get blisters and took them on a half marathon and got one right on the inside edge of the area you’re taking about at the metarsals.
Thanks for the review
I like the stealth fit version. My first Brooks. Love them!

Yep coming soon. Already have miles in it. Spoiler alert: we really like it.

Glycerin 19 2E wear us9.5, Glycerin 20 choose the same or smaller ?D us9.5?
@beliveintherun. Based on Cushioning and ride, which shoe/midsole tech is the dna loft 3.0 most similar to?
It’s a bit softer DNA flash I assume. Which sounds very nice

Alpha fly , new balance rc elite v2 maybe even the adidas prime x if you can handle that somewhat unstable ride but tons of cushioning.
Alphafly or RC Elite v2
