I’m glad to hear that runners who liked previous versions of the Glycerin are likely to enjoy this one as well. Brooks shoes are the best fit for me and I’ve had plenty of Ghosts and Glycerin over the last few years.

I got a pair of Glycerin 20’s for $80 as a Black Friday deal. I really enjoy them, especially at that price. Yes, they are a little stiff, but I tend to hit more on the forefoot so that doesn’t bother me too much. They pair well with my Novablast 3’s which I got for the same price. I love my Novablast 3’s.

The 19 was one of my first 3 or so pairs of running shoes. It was one of the few shoes I tried on that suited a pinky toe bunion I had. I was grateful for the comfortable miles it afforded me as I addressed my foot health, all while starting off in the world of running.

I currently run exclusively in the Brooks Glycerin 20 Neutral (I actually have four pairs in various stages of wear). I find it hard to find a cushioned shoe that's neutral and doesn't have a plate so I like it. I just PR-ed a half and medaled in my age group in Glycerin 20 last weekend. I've been really curious to see if there was a difference in the 21s. When one of my pairs is retired, I will check this out.

Came here for the Triumph comparison and I was not disappointed! Thanks, Kofuzi. The Ghost Max intrigues me too. Did you compare that with the Triumph as well? I want to love Brooks shoes since they're my hometown company, but aside from prior iterations of the Ghost (6 & 7) I've struggled to find a daily trainer from Brooks that can soak up the miles on long slow days, handle some progression type runs where the majority of miles are easy with several minutes of midrun interval/repetition/uptempo sessions, and the all-around daily trainer for the easy day miles. Doesn't sound like the Glycerin is quite it (darn). Maybe it's the Ghost Max?

I always have at least one version of the Endorphin Speed in my rotation,as well as the Hyperion Max (formerly had the Tempos). But I also have the Ghost Max which I use for my slower long runs. I use the Speeds for LR’s that have GMP (faster) miles in them, but appreciate that the Ghost Max is a very comfortable cruiser that doesn’t push me to go too fast, yet provides all the cushion I need (I’m petite/lightweight) without being too bulky, heavy, or high stack. It’s far more nimble than most the max cushion shoes I considered and I’m looking forward the next version which will have an updated midsole foam. I have about 200 mi on my current pair and they’re still in excellent shape.

there is some similarity in terms of durability in nitro foams - they all seem to last forever (as long as they don't get too chewed up by the road/rocks). aside from that, there is a lot of variability based on the source material that the shoes are made of (supercritical foams have two main ingredients: the solid and the gas. nitro foams all have gas in common - nitrogen). I haven't tried the magnify before, so I can't comment more specifically

Glycerin was the first max cush shoe I ever tried at the insistence of people who told me I needed to try one. I thought it was heavy and clunky, and to this day I have a poor impression of this entire genre. That said, I respect that there might be heavier people who might not be able to run at all if these options weren't available. Now let's see Ghost Max get DNA Loft v3.

I have the Glycerin 21. I like the arch in it more than the ghost. The G21 has a moderate amount and it’s a softer more comfortable support in my view. I am in my 40s and this has become my most reached for daily trainer. The foam is not too soft or stiff. The asics nimbus is too sloppy for me underfoot. The G21 is a really nice shoe. It’s my daily trainer and I use the Asics Superblast for races.

short answer: yes less-short answer: it depends on what kind of experience you're looking to get out of your marathon shoe. pro athletes won't be racing in this shoe, and it's not a style of shoe that I tend to prefer. but for many runners, the glycerine provides a stable, predictable experience for training runs and marathon distance runs alike

I don't report stack height if the brand itself isn't giving it to me . . . I suspect that they are providing foam-only heights that would not include outsole or insole heights. the spec sheet that they gave for the Hyperion elite 4, for example, gives stack height measurements and then specifies that total measured height for WA rules purposes is 40mm. ASICS used to report heights this way, but they have changed as of this year or last (depending on the shoe). There isn't a governing body or even an industry standard for reporting these things (although the trend is to report things in a way that would comport with how WA measures shoes for competition purposes)
