These are wonderful shoes, I can't believe how comfortable they are! I've started buying only Brooks shoes, they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever work. Yes they are a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. They fit nice and snug even with leaving the shoelaces tied all the time, I just slip them on and off. One of the things I love best about this style is the material, it doesn't crease like leather does, so the shoe seems to look like new no matter how much you wear it. Only negative would be because of the material, they let in more cool air and water than other shoes, so may not be the best option if you use them in very cold or rainy climates. But living in the desert, they are awesome. This is my third pair!

Great running shoe. Gives good stability as well as comfort.

Did some research and prior purchasing to find confortable sneakers and really like Brooks. Tried Hoka and not as confortable to me. The Glycerine GTS 20 is sooooo confortable, and I feel very stable in them. I also have, and like, Brooks Ghost Max sneakers, but I like these better. Brooks color combinations aren't always to my liking, but I'll sacrifice "my style" for feet that don't hurt anymore. Very light and well made. Durable tread. Toe cap protector is smaller than most sneakers but adequate.

Best running/walking shoe I've ever owned. Very comfortable. I walk on uneven dirt trails in hilly country. The extra side support made a huge difference compared to the same model that Brooks offers without the side support. One star removed, however, because over time, one's toe nail (big toe) will produce a hole in the upper fabric. I keep my toe nails clipped so I believe this to be a shoe design problem. Hole popped through after 3 and a half months. I had the same problem with an earlier non-stability pair. Brooks simply needs to reinforce this area.

Very comfortable, sturdy and just what I wanted

Very particular about shoes -- support, fit across front and sides, heel strike, and roll-through. This model is superb for walking, running, and concentrated on-your-feet stress. Unfortunately, you have to keep looking for a next find when the good ones finally wear out -- the latest models [of same shoe line] from Brooks, Nike, Hoka, and the others et al do not necessarily repeat themselves year-to-year on such factors as [your] comfort and fitness to purpose. I know, I've experienced it many times to find the good is gone. So, unless you are a fashionista and form is above function, consider buying a second pair once you fall in love... May save you from a price increase later, 'to boot".
