Above average (81/100)
This score rates better than 64% of shoes.
Our ratings use detailed reviews from knowledgeable runners, ratings for shoes in the same product line, and reliable product information from trusted retailers.
Rankings combine runner ratings, whether reviewers say they'd buy a shoe again, direct comparisons to other shoes, related product-line performance, and trusted external ratings.
The darker band shows the central score range. The lighter band shows a wider range of reasonable outcomes. More reviews for this shoe usually narrow both bands.

Overall
The only shoe I’ve never had foot issues in. A true gem in the Brooks line, and I’m disappointed the brand changed the shoe so much in the Glycerin 20.

Got them expecting them to have more cushion than the Adrenaline 21 GTS, but there’s not a noticeable difference. They’re fine, nothing fancy, not super-cushy. Not responsive, but you don’t expect them to be.
