About this item

  • THIS WOMEN'S SHOE IS FOR: The Glycerin GTS 20 is for runners who think there is no such thing as too much cushioning but require additional support from our trusted GuideRails which helps to guide your body in its natural path of motion while keeping excess movement in check. This Brooks Glycerin GTS 20 is a certified PDAC A5500 Diabetic shoe and has been granted the APMA Seal of Acceptance. We recommend ordering Brooks running shoes 1/2 to one size larger than your dress shoe.
  • GREAT SUPPORT: The Glycerin GTS 20 is the more supportive version of the Glycerin 20. With its integrated GuideRails holistic support system, excess movement is kept in check to keep you moving comfortably while providing additional support beyond just the feet, to the most injury-prone part of a runner’s body: the knees.
  • MAXIMUM CUSHION AND SUPPORT: Provides maximum support while offering the maximum amount of cushioning. Ideal for road running, cross training, the gym or wherever you might want to take them!
  • SUPREME SOFTNESS: The ultimate in softness and supreme comfort, designed for runners who want pillowy soft cushioning. The Glycerin 20 with DNA LOFT v3 offers our softest cushioning optimized to be lightweight, responsive, and durable.
  • SMOOTH TRANSITIONS: New cushioning and redesigned outsole deliver smoother and more stable transitions for a supremely soft on-the-run experience that lets runners fully immerse in their miles.

I have never owned a pair of Brooks, so I was nervous about the fit and ordering it online. It fits perfectly and probably one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever put on. I am getting used to the impact support but great investment. I am running a 5k with the girls I coach and think these are a great shoe for the race.

I absolutely love Brooks glycerin GTS. And I am so thrilled that I got this pair for $100, probably because they are 20s, and the 21s just came out. I have tried Brooks glycerin without the GTS, and it is not as good for my ankles, which pronate. I will never use another running shoe

As far as sneakers / athletic shoes are concerned, I only buy Brooks. And I typically stick with the Glycerin or Ghost line. I bought these same shoes about 1-1/2 yrs ago in blue and totally love them. Feel great - even during aerobics, Zumba, etc ... not to mention just walking around during everyday activities. Very durable - still look & feel like new. I discovered Brooks back in 2013 while preparing for a half marathon. Such good foot support, leading to leg and knee support as well. New styles are introduced regularly and I sometimes look for an old style that I like - design & color wise. Older styles are typically available at a lower cost, but I can never find them in my size. I needed to replace my old Brooks black sneakers and was thrilled to find this - the same as my blue Brooks - in my size. And at a great price since it's not the latest style to be introduced - which makes no difference to me. Great fit, very attractive style & colors, very durable and a great price! Very fast shipping & delivery.

Granted I have only used once!! But OMG how amazingly comfortable these tennis shoes are. I owned one brooks in the past and I didn’t like it. Then I switched to ASICS but over time it started hurting the sole of my feet. I am back to brooks and I so hope it works for me over time. I had a very good 1 hour walk today!!

I've had surgery on both feel and the glycerine arms to be the only shoe I can wear without pain. These shoes said they were glycerine but they are guardrail. Didn't notice until 4 hours into my shift and i can't walk.i can't return by l because I wore them. Im so mad and disappointed.

I spent $130 on these shoes because it said that there was arch support. Again, my feet floating in shoes with no support. I have to coach my son’s baseball team today so I have to wear these shoes which makes them not returnable. I cannot tell you how disappointing this is. I will stop and buy some inserts since there is no arch support for this shoe.

I ordered these because I was having back and knee pain. I walk a lot. A LOT! I hesitated because of the price but I'm so glad I got these! I read that these would help so I thought I would try them, really not expecting much. I was wrong. Yes, they cost more than I would normally pay for shoes. But after 2 months of wearing these I don't have the back and knee pain. I can really feel the difference. And, after 2 months of lots of wear, they still look and feel brand new! All of the other shoes I've had have never held up this well. This is my go to shoe every day. I will never buy anything else again. These are perfect!

Ich habe nun schon das dritte Paar Schuhe von Brooks gekauft, und kann jeder Frau empfehlen, die den ganzen Tag auf den Beinen ist, diese auszuprobieren. Ich bin begeistert, keine Schmerzen mehr, perfekte Dämpfung, langlebig und formstabil.
Anmerkung zur Größe:
Fallen kleiner aus, besser eine Nummer größer nehmen, ich selbst habe Größe 41 und dieser Schuh passt in Größe 42 perfekt an meinen Fuß.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden, auch der Verkäufer ist absolut seriös und unglaublich schnell mit dem Versand. Der perfekte Einkauf.

Me las recomendó mi podólogo ya que, tras varios meses progresando en el running con otras zapatillas más básicas, empecé a tener dolores en los tobillos debido a que tengo la pisada pronadora. Acierto total desde el primer día, los dolores han desaparecido totalmente debido a que la parte posterior sujeta perfectamente el tobillo y estabiliza la pisada. Gracias a estas zapatillas puedo seguir progresando. Y además, estéticamente, son muy bonitas.
