help Brooks Glycerin Max FAQ
Does the Brooks Glycerin Max use DNA LOFT v4 or DNA Tuned foam?
The actual Brooks Glycerin Max is associated with DNA Tuned, Brooks's nitrogen-infused cushioning with different cell sizes in the heel and forefoot. That matters because the shoe is tuned for soft landings and more responsive toe-offs rather than simply being a block of soft foam.
What kind of runs is the Brooks Glycerin Max made for?
It is a neutral max-cushion daily trainer for easy runs, recovery runs, and longer mileage. It is not a plated racing shoe like the Brooks Hyperion Elite line.
How much drop does the Brooks Glycerin Max have?
The Glycerin Max uses a 6 mm heel-to-toe drop. That gives it a different feel from many traditional daily trainers with 10 mm or 12 mm drops.
Who should avoid the Brooks Glycerin Max?
Runners who want a low, flexible, ground-feel shoe may find it too tall and cushioned. It is closer to the Hoka Bondi or New Balance Fresh Foam X More category than a lightweight tempo shoe.
