For Brooks, I would also recommend checking out their [Restart program](https://restart.brooksrunning.com/) which is basically like an outlet offering shoes at a really good discount. They will tell you if the shoes are in brand new condition or gently used.. I believe these are the shoes that get returned as they have a very generous return policy.
Last year, I got my Glycerin 21 shoes for $75 in brand new condition :)
I’m a big fan of the brooks glycerin and glycerin max. The max has more cushioning but the regular glycerin is also quite cushioned.
Both are super comfy imo and have helped me build up miles as a beginner
No I’ve liked both. I actually bought the glycerin 21 without much high hopes with it on sale thinking I’d much prefer the Nike’s and saucony I got at the same time.
I continually was reaching for the glycerin over those and when I saw the glycerin max on sale I decided to give them a try. Really like them
I don’t think you’d go wrong with either
I have had the the brooks glycerin 21 and the brooks glycerin max and I have thoroughly enjoyed both.
Got the max thinking the 21’s were almost done since they were at 400 miles but they’ve continued to serve me well
i have 3! brooks glycerin 18, 21, and then a pair of new balance 1080s :) i only road run but i kind of wish i had trail runners… i just need to make it out to nearby trails more.
