About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    "I love running, I just hate the thought of running sometimes. Thinking about the shoes I’m going to wear gets me back out on the road easily, especially the Brooks Glycerin Max 2. The mega stacked DNA Tuned midsole technology is a stellar spec making the heel ultra soft and the forefoot nice and bouncy. Concrete is no longer beating up my body. It honestly feels like I’m cheating running in these shoes effortlessly gliding through each stride. It’s to the point where I have been running longer with them even on my recovery days! My Glycerin Max 2’s are perfect for me and are a permanent shoe in my rotation." - Kojo, Footwear Sales Lead at DICK'S House of Sport Charlottesville, VA

The Glycerin Max 2 Lost Its Ultra Cushion Feel. Now Just Feels Like Another Running Shoe

Really disappointing. The Glycerin series is known for their cushion and I have owned 4 different Glycerin series over the last few years and loved all of them. The Glycerin Max is my all time favorite running shoe and I was excited to run in the Glycerin Max 2. Unfortunately, the Glycerin Max 2 is firm like all the other shoes and no longer comfortable for recovery runs or long easy runs. The Glycerin Max 2 lost its unique cushion feel and not worth the money, really disappointing! I am currently looking at other brands to fill that void of an ultra cushioned running shoe.

I just got this one still working it in .but i think this feels the best 👌 on my feets for now.but very good for all day wearing

Manufacturing Fault

I have a big problem with the left foot. It's like im walking on the inside of my ankle. Bought one before this and one after this is the only one I'm this problem with...looks like something went during manufacturing. Please let me know if something can be done about it.

Fantastic Long Run Shoe

I enjoy it a lot for longer runs, 8 miles and up. The max cushion is very helpful for my joints and it absorbs the shock of each stride well.

Still Very Good

Not quite as plush as the OG Glycerin Max but still very good in its own right. Comfortable and I like the looks.

Superb Recovery Shoe

Great recovery shoe for those slow miles. A little more narrow than the previous version which worked well for my feet. Fantastic cushioning.

Great shoes, very comfortable, not a big fan of the bigger drop shoes normally but these are great!

Big Boy Shoes!

Great shoe to return to running in. As a former cross country runner I used to log up to 100 miles a week in my ghosts when they first came out. I’m now returning to running over a decade later with 100 lbs gained (220 now for reference). I knew I needed a shoe to protect my joints and back with my heavier frame while I get back into it. These are perfect. While they do feel clunky compared to the low profile shoes I used to run in, I was surprised by how smooth they felt running. They definitely absorb the impact and I feel less beat up than I should after a run. Noticeably different than the stock glycerin when it comes to joint protection. Highly recommend for any guys out there who used to be fast, and are adjusting to the dad life.
