I found this shoe to have good cushioning, but runs a bit wide. After running in these for 6 miles started to have knee pain.Switched to the Nike V3 and love them. 6'2" 215lbs.

The most comfortable Cushioning shoe i know. I am heavy( 210 lbs)and this is the perfect Allroundshoe for me. From short, fast Running to LSD. All is possible :). Durability is until now ok( after 150 Km) . Thanks Brooks :).

Very nice shoe. These shoes are really comfortable, but not so much that you cant run in them. The Mogo outsole is pretty amazing in itself. It offers Perfect blend of cushioning, responsivness, and support. Anyone neutral runner wanting a overall great shoe with plently of comfort and a good ride.....

I run thirty hilly miles a week on gravel roads. Have recently had to switch from Glycerin 5's to 6 series. After a couple of hundred miles I find myself really missing the fives. I don't run on my heels so I don't find any advantage to the extra heel cushioning. Overall they seem stiff and unrespon...

I liked the Glycerin but I have to agree with Brian. Brooks currently offers 4 models in a men's 7 by my count, down from 8 two years ago. I have seen how small the sales are below size 8. But come on Brooks, how about adding a few models like the Trance and Cascadia. All your competitors offer ...

In 25 years of running, Brooks is the first company I've come across that refuses to manufacture shoes in sizes smaller than an 8 in many of their models. I found this odd when I switched to Brooks a couple of years ago, but I worried little about it as I was wearing the Glycerin, which I could get ...

After going from radius to adrenalin gts to the glycerin series. these are great shoes. u can feel the cushoning on warm day and when it is hot it is the only thing you notice. very sturdy shoe that is comfortable and stylish.=)

Just visited US from Ireland, and had the luck to stumble across Roadrunner. I am a heavy runner, male, 32yrs, 190lbs who had already run 2 marathons. I have always had a serious pain in my medial shin. Running the majority of the time in pain. I ran my 2 marathons in Asics Nmbus with an arch suppor...

Converted after being longtime loyal Asics wearer (Kayano, Nimbus, Cumulus, Kinsei). Disgusted with latest Asics models - like running on concrete - also heavy and loud. Tried and tested latest Cumulus, Nimbus but also Brooks Glycerin 6 and Saucony Progrid Triumph 5s as recommended by specialist a...

Cushion soft but not mushy; higher heel gives good lean; better ride than Nimbus or NB 861; feels like it will give more miles than Asics/NB cushioned+ trainers (6'2", 205lbs, 25 miles wk)

C'mon, if these feel like a rock to you, then you must normally run with bags of mashed potatoes on your feet. Great ride. MOGO works. Feels very close to the Glycerin 5 which I just retired. 20mi in I am happy!

I tried on 5-6 pair of shoes before deciding on the Glycerin. Most comfortable for me by far. Took it out for a three mile test spin....Superb!

Too hard and slapping in the transition. The fit is nice as long as you don't have a narrow foot. Felt beat up and awkward to run in. The heel is too high for my own taste. I will definately go back to the nimbus .

Great Glycerin update. MOGO is, hands down, better than Solyte. Smooth transition and the toe-spring last is great. Just wish the forefoot were more snug. A keeper nonetheless.

Wed, January 09,2008:
The new glycerin has a super soft crash pad in the heel. Had a nice fit in the heel and midfoot, but had a ton of flare out in the toebox. Caused some blistering due to not being able to tighten that far forward. If you like supersoft and have a little more in your instep then this would be a goo...
