Men's Brooks Glycerin 7

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

Okay, been running in this shoe for 3 months now. I do find it funny how a shoe to one person, feels completely different to another. Take for instance the reviewer below that says this shoe is not soft but Sauconys are....well I find the opposite to be true. (Saucony's felt like bricks on my feet) Well soft, cushioned, who cares....I want soft and cushioned and I loooovvveee this shoe.
Cushioning is excellent, my feet have finally found a shoe that feels like I have cushioning underneath. None of the other manufacturers top cushioned shoes did I feel like that was the case. Guess thats what happens when you strive for lightweight.... somethings got to give.
Well I get to enjoy my running more now, pain free...thank you Brooks! Im buying a second pair.

Impressed. Had the Saucony Triumphs, then the Vomero4, which to me were vey similar.....and I was dissapointed in both of these top rated shoes for cushioning. Not being a heavy heel striker, closer to mid-foot, these previous shoes were inadequate....really didn't feel the cushioning. Also tried the Asics Cumulus but these Glycerines felt more plush and is exactly what I was looking for in a cushioned shoe.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

Without a doubt the worst shoe I have ever run in. I couldn't even get through 3 miles. The knee pain it caused was substantial and they also gave me shin splints. I have since moved on to Asics Cumulus 11's (and a pair of Kayano 15's). I now enjoy running again.

When my Glycerin 6s were worn out went to Mizuno wave but found them too stiff and not enough cushioning. Tried the 7s and loved them. Perfect balance.

These fit my new full size orthotics great. The cushioning is excellent as well. Doing a 1/2 marathon and they feel great on my long runs. I'm 6' 4" - 245 lbs and they provide a geed "ride"

Good value shoe at the discounted price. This is my 2nd pair. Got ~600 miles out of the first pair, which is about 20% than is typical.

they have moved up to the Glycerin 8, but for the money this shoe still is great.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

I have been using the Mizuno Wave Creations, which feel great but the heels wear incredibly fast. The saleswoman shifted me into these shoes and my sole pain increased quite a bit. They also hurt my back. I went back to running in my worn-out Mizunos and the back problems (finally) went away. Overall, a bad experience!

2 mos into these shoes. 4-6 miles asphalt road. conclusion:nothing special. a good shoe makes you forget your feet, these don't. will try asics cumulus-

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

This model is much much more durable than previous models (at the little toe area where I wear out my shoes) and it gives me superior shock absorption as well. (I am a supinator who runs always on my toes (never injured though)....great and now durable shoe.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

no pain anywhere when running, walking 6 miles. 209lbs, 5'10''. wear a 10, got an 11, should have got 10.5. all my shoes prone to right outer heel wear. no verdict yet on durability.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

ordered a pair of these after trying asics cumulus. the cumulus had bad heel wear on right shoe after only 100 miles. asics cumulus just left me uninspired after 2 mos. will update on g7 as appropriate. also, insoles on cumulus' were CHEAP. trying to find something durable that works well on asphalt 2 lane blacktop country road.

My feet quit hurting after using these shoes, just ran a 1/2 marathon and no problems at all. I would suggest buying them a whole size bigger though. I will absolutley buy another pair. Great shoe!!

insoles horrible, got softsole(orange)from finish line, shoe now working great. not too soft, seems fast, not too much compression, needs a thick sock, comfortable, nice feel. buy 1/2 size up. winner winner chicken dinner.

Review below got cut off.......anyway, great cushioning finally found. Also tried Asics Cumulus and Mizuno Wave.....Glycerin more plush.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

The Glycerins are great shoes. The mainly mesh upper vents them nicely and makes them light enough. The cushioning is the biggest highlight of these, with the heel and forefeet being very well supported with soft cushioning. You can literally feel the mogo in these at work. Really nice support with that.

Comments about Mens Brooks Glycerin 7 Running Shoe:

This shoe has great cushioning..nice step in first feel...I am 190 pound midfoot striker..I feel the shoe has above average responsiveness but you really fast dudes might find it a little heavy but then again you probably wouldnt be in the shoe to begin with..Handles my mild overpronation fine...the only suggestion to Brooks...if this is a neutral cushioned shoe for med to high arch runners..it falls short for those of us in the high arch category...easily corrected though..This is the only reason I am giving it four stars instead of five...

If you like soft shoes, you wil like this trainer. Too soft for me. Softer than the Glycerin 6. A little tighter toe box compared to 6 ,but not a big problem. sending them back.
