Our take on the Brooks Glycerin Max 2

The Glycerin Max 2 is Brooks' most cushioned neutral road shoe, built on a tall stack of nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned foam with a GlideRoll rocker that rolls the foot from heel to toe. It suits runners who want soft landings and protection on long or recovery days, plus walkers who like a plush ride. Against the standard Glycerin it is taller and softer, and against lighter daily trainers it gives up some snap and ground feel for comfort. Reviewers rate the cushioning and smooth transitions highly; the main complaints are the high stack feeling unstable for some and the shoe being heavy and warm on fast efforts.

Questions and answers

Is the Glycerin Max 2 good for long runs?
Yes. Its tall DNA Tuned foam stack and rocker are built for protection and smooth rolling over many miles, which is where owners like it most.
How does it differ from the regular Glycerin?
The Max has a taller, softer stack and a more pronounced rocker. The standard Glycerin is lower and firmer, with more ground feel.
Does it work for overpronators?
No. It is a neutral shoe with no stability guidance. Runners who overpronate should look at Brooks' stability models instead.
Is it good for walking and standing all day?
Yes. The soft cushioning and rocker suit walking and long days on your feet, though the high stack can feel tippy for some.
What is the upper made of?
A triple jacquard air mesh with a plush tongue and heel collar, laced with a traditional closure.
Can I use it for speed workouts?
It is not ideal. The soft foam and weight favor easy and long runs; lighter, firmer shoes are better for tempo and intervals.
