Brooks Glycerin 23 Introduction
One of the most trusted shoes in many rotations, the Glycerin is back for a 23rd iteration. Following the major redesign with the 22 which saw the addition of DNA Tuned foam to make the ride even softer and smoother, the 23 adds even more. The drop decreases by 2mm which means more cushioning in the forefoot.
What’s new in the Glycerin 23?
DNA Tuned is a combination of dual-cell technology. Big cells which give a soft landing and soak up the shock of the road are prevalent in the heel. Meanwhile, up front, we find a greater density of the small cells which are firmer and allow for a more energetic push off. The combination ensures a smooth roll through the gait cycle. If you are a heel striker, you will enjoy the depth of cushion at the rear. Meanwhile, those who strike further forward will find a responsive foam underfoot to help them push through the run.
As would be expected of a Brooks shoe, the upper offers a comfortable and accommodating fit with a new, improved engineered knit. Along with the comfort up top, the width of the platform and geometry of the midsole is sure to offer a more stable ride to be enjoyed by a wide range of runners.
