Why We Like The Brooks Glycerin 21 Shoe

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.

Nitro Infused Souls = Major Comfort

I'm sorry to say, I'm not a runner. I bought these sneakers because I walk very swiftly about 12,500 to 17,000 steps per day. I had a lot of foot issues, ball and heal. This model is by far the most comfortable sneaker I have ever worn in my life. It's like walking on air. I have 2 pair of the Adrenaline line and they are great too. There is only one small issue that I don't like. The laces are slippery, so they don't stay tight. I have to re-tighten them a couple times per day. I think it's because they are new and it will fix itself over a period of time. I really love the color schemes you offer. I'm a Brooks customer for life.

Perfect runningshoe

The Glycerine 21 is a very nice shoe. I have used it recently in my training for the Rotterdam marathon. I also ran the Rotterdam marathon in it. a pleasant, stable shoe. Ideal for longer distances.

Best glycerin to date

Full disclaimer. I am a brooks ambassador, but this is an honest review. Best glycerin to date. I was worried that I might get less mileage in the midsole since it went nitrogen infused, but I think I can get more than in v19. For me this is a 1000+km shoe that gets better as the mileage increases. The new outsole design really helps with an adaptive transition. And with the v21 the step in comfort is even better than the v20.. which was already great. Downsides? The only one for me is that this is not brilliant at picking up the pace compared to other brooks shoes.. but that is not what it was intended for.. sorry.. I wanted to get at least one downside and that was the best I could come up with haha

excellent

This is an excellent shoe. Much more comfortable than Glycerin 20. It provides an excellent ride with good support. Bottom line I am very happy with the 21.

Hoka no more!

Amazingly comfortable and supportive. Replaced HOKA Clifton 8s with these and never going back. A perfect shoe!

Not a firm feel like the Glycerin 20. Too mushy.

I don’t like it as much as the Glycerin 20. It feels too mushy. Bring the Glycerin 20 back. Need to use a stronger material on top since my toes pretty quickly create a hole in the top.

Stack height is to high

I preferred a glycerin 20s over the 21s. I do not like the new increased stack height on a 21s. I’ve almost twisted my ankle a couple times and I think they look like clown shoes on my feet. I return my pair and now I’m wearing the ghost 16.
