Pros & Cons
Pros
These shoes are awesome! The glycerin is a great shoe. A little less clunky. Wider than the 13's.
These are a highly cushioned shoe with a good amount of flexibility and easy ride. They look well built, my first pair of brooks per podiatrist recommendation. Just slightly small but very comfortable especially with my plantar fasciitis.
It's light and suppors feet well. Sole compound seems to “stick” to the ground for extra push off and traction without negatively impacting speed. I assume it's due to the textured sole.
Cons
The bottoms were darkened with sand and small crushed pebbles between the tread. The laces are short and the sneakers squeak on impact with pavement/asphalt. Brooks makes a great shoe but these were listed improperly.
Highlights
Quality
Well made and comfortable for people who have foot pain.
Fit perfect, feels great, give plenty of support.
The problem is that the insole insert (the little pos foam pad) apparently is considered to be "one size fits all (widths)".
Cushion is about gone, almost no tread left.
Price
It may seem pricier but is worth every penny.
Shipping
Amazon as usual delivered it fast and the whole transaction went smoothly.
Competitiveness
I like that brooks didn't go too far away from the other previous models.
I tried a few different shoes with different sole inserts, but these were the winners!
We can not go back to cheapo nikes!
I use to use asics nimbus line and i have found these to be comparable if not superior in some ways.

These are in the same league as the asics mens gel nimbus 17 running shoe that preceded them except that the asics needed two visits for minor repairs gluing small pieces of the sole back on
