Title: Life Changing!!!
Review: I am 5'6 and at the last time I weighed myself I was about 220 lb. I normally am a size 8.5 wide/ee. Hopefully that helps someone regarding measuring and a basis for this review and finding the right size for them. For some reason not everyone writes their stats to help them out. But for over a year I have been suffering from pain hip / back / knee. I am not, sadly, overly active anymore although I would like to say that I enjoy doing outside projects, but it has been difficult with my weight and the pain to be outside and moving around for a long period of time. I took about 2 months to research shoes, literally googling shoes for fat people / shoes for all day wear. The top two brands that kept popping up were these Brooks and Hokas. I found that both shoes can be bought for around the same price of $150 which is the most expensive pair of shoes I have ever bought except for dress shoes. But I decided to go with the Brooks because the one factor I noticed is these Brooks have support rails to help align my body. And as a side note it is definitely worth looking up how your legs and feet are aligned to find the right shoe. Asics have a good video on determining your foot alignment and stride. I tend to have my weight on my heels which leads to the outer edge and then to the toe area. And after buying these shoes for the first day that I put them on I can't believe how much this is changed my life in regards to getting my projects done without feeling sore nor tired. When I first read review saying it's like walking on clouds I thought people were exaggerating and they were not. Although they are not like fluffy memory foam pillows they are very lightweight and conforming. Honestly I just remember putting them on and I don't even feel like they're strapped to my feet. I am trying to take good care of these shoes as I normally break the back counters of My normal shoes. So I have a metal shoe horn and that helps easily and I just did a square knot to tie them quickly and permanently and I have yet to retie or adjust and it's been too much. I've also used the second eyelet in the top part of the shoe. I can literally be on my feet for hours without taking a break and without feeling tired or worn down. I self-diagnosed myself with plantar fasciitis after reading the symptoms. I know that sounds lame but all the symptoms I had matched those of plantar fasciitis and ever since wearing these shoes all of those symptoms have All but gone away. The support rails are definitely noticeable when first putting them on compared to a normal everyday tennis shoe for example. They are not intrusive nor can you truly feel them but they are noticeable in the support they give you when you first stand up. I initially thought that I would have troubles with the slope of the shoe but I have not encountered any issues with balance or performance. I cannot speak more highly about these shoes and I am now going to be a life-long customer for these shoes and the brand. I hope that they don't ever change the structure of these shoes but maybe one day they could make it truly feel like a cloud :-). The tread on them has not worn. And is very thick soled and seem to be nearly non-slip. I have not only completed a year's worth of small around the house projects around the house in the past 2 months but I'm excited to do more and be more active. I doubt I'll be running any marathons anytime soon but the fact that every time I put my shoes on I'm energized and motivated, I'm sure I will be back to living a healthier and more adventurous lifestyle in the coming year. For those looking for shoes if you're overweight and oddly disproportionate like me, these are the shoes for you! I would give these an 11 out of 10, 6 out of 5, three thumbs up, the highest rated Michelin star possible, a lifetime achievement award, ETC.

Title: Great running sneaker!
Review: One of the best running shoes on the market in my opinion. Great arch and overall support for those with flat feet. Very comfortable ... great for running or long walks. Highly recommend.

Title: Very Comfortable Shoe
Review: On the recommendation of a nurse, my husband bought these. He couldn’t believe the difference in the way his legs & feet felt. The comfort was instantaneous & the shoes fit perfectly. No longer does he deal with pain & discomfort. The support is ideal & the shoes look very nice. In fact, my husband bought another pair because of the change the shoes made in his ability to walk with more comfort.

Title: Good, supportive shoes!
Review: I've exclusively worn Brooks Adenaline GTS shoes for many years. Now that I'm older, and walking not running, I decided to try a less expensive alternative - so I ordered 2 pair of Brooks Glycerin GTS 20s while they were on sale. Very happy with these shoes. They have the support I need, more cushioning than I'm used to, and a price I like.

Title: I believe the guard rails prevented a sprained ankle
Review: I was running at night and step on a rock and my left foot completely supinated but I believe the rails didn’t allowed the foot to completely rolled to the outside. I had sprained my ankles before so I know my ankle would had easily been sprained. The only thing I don’t like is the insoles, since brooks glycerin 13 or ghost 12 the insole material haven’t been the same and in my case they produce hot spots in the ball of my foot. I changed socks to brand new saucony socks and the shoes still give me blisters. But other than that the shoes feel great. Easily to break in and very soft and supportive. Don’t get the white color, is hard to maintain clean

Review: Es mi cuarto par de Gliceryn 20, su amortizacion en la suela es como caminar en algodones, materiales de primera calidad y tenis con muy buen terminado. Tengo fascitis plantar (ahora menos) y cuando el dolor era insoportable al caminar los tenis Brooks fueron un balsamo al dolor. Me atrevo a decir que seguiré usando esta marca toooda la vida.

Review: Following the hype around Brooks I started checkin their models out...one day I watched a video with Bjorn Ulvaeus of Abba (the Rick Beato one) wearing a colorful pair of shoes. They turned out to be these.So far so good, they fit well are fairly light and make runnin more comfortable of a chore.No issues with this transaction, seller shipped them fast and arrived on time.Definitely recommended (u still pay import fee if you are from Canada)

Review: Brooks Homme Glycerin GTS 20+ Bon amorti+ Soutien voute plantaire présent mais discret+ Pied stable pendant le déroulé de la marche- L'espace pour les orteils sur la paire que j'ai reçu était très (trop) étroit, j'ai du les renvoyer pour cette raison ce qui m'a étonné et déçu car les commentaires que j'avais lu sur la marque Brooks semblaient affirmer le contraire.A titre de comparaison je porte depuis des années des Asics Cumulus ou Kayano et la largeur standard me convient.
