Men's Glycerin GTS 23

The Brooks Glycerin GTS 23 delivers premium cushioning with structured support for runners who want a smooth, distraction-free ride. Built with DNA TUNED cushioning and Brooks’ trusted GuideRails™ Technology System, this shoe combines plush landings, responsive toe-offs, and controlled stability without feeling rigid or overcorrective.

A wide, stable platform promotes steady heel-to-toe transitions, while the updated engineered knit upper provides a soft, accommodating fit with improved breathability and structure. Designed for daily training and longer runs, the Glycerin GTS 23 offers a confident, supportive feel for runners who want stability built seamlessly into a premium cushioned trainer.

Fit & Feel Guidance

The Glycerin GTS 23 features a true-to-size, accommodating fit with a secure midfoot and comfortable room through the forefoot. The enhanced triple jacquard warp knit upper feels plush and breathable, hugging the foot without pressure points. A secure heel and stable platform contribute to a confident step-in feel, making this shoe especially comfortable for higher mileage and runners who appreciate structure without stiffness.

Foam Technology

DNA TUNED is Brooks’ next-generation nitrogen-infused midsole foam, engineered with a dual-cell construction to balance softness and responsiveness. Larger cells in the heel create plush, shock-absorbing landings, while smaller cells in the forefoot deliver a more energetic, efficient toe-off. In the Glycerin GTS 23, Brooks added 2 mm more DNA TUNED in the forefoot, enhancing responsiveness while preserving the smooth, cushioned feel that defines the Glycerin line. This results in a premium stability shoe that feels soft, modern, and fluid underfoot rather than dense or controlling.


How This Shoe Compares

Compared to Asics Kayano

The Kayano provides more pronounced, traditional stability with a firmer, more corrective feel. The Glycerin GTS 23 feels softer and more fluid, offering support that engages only when needed rather than controlling the foot throughout the stride.

Compared to Brooks Adrenaline GTS

Both shoes use Brooks’ GuideRails™ Technology System for structured support, but the Glycerin GTS 23 offers a higher level of cushioning and a more premium underfoot feel. The Adrenaline GTS feels firmer and more traditional, while the Glycerin GTS 23 delivers softer landings and a smoother, more refined ride for longer runs and higher-mileage training.
