As a shoe enthusiast, I must admit that my collection leans heavily towards sneakers. I’m infatuated with all different styles and brands, varying from the lightweight options that have literally saved my feet during holidays to the weatherproof versions I don regardless of the forecasted weather conditions.
Amusingly enough, I had never given the brands our editors regularly rave about a try. This list includes Brooks, a brand recognised for their comfortable design and increasingly popular among those prioritising comfort. However, recently, I managed to get my hands on a pair of Brooks’s latest sneakers. Believe me when I say, the moment I tried these on, I was swayed due to the incredible support they provided.
Let me introduce you to the Brooks Glycerin Max, the latest groundbreaking design by this renowned running shoe manufacturer. These sneakers are composed of an insulating layer of cushioning, making them incredibly comfortable and slightly boosting your height (a blessing for someone of my 5″2′ stature).
I recently decided to take these shoes out for a test run around Philadelphia’s Old City over a weekend. Without even realising, I managed to clock over 10,000 steps by the time dinner rolled around. Even though I was quite exhausted, I was amazed by the fact that the usual soreness and discomfort that used to bother me after a day’s walk was non-existent. These shoes have proved to be a lifesaver every day I choose them for my walk, and they’ve even encouraged me to consider a running regime as the weather gets cooler. Any sneaker that pushes me to consider jogging definitely gets a thumbs-up in my book!
Given its snug and luxurious design, the Glycerin Max inspires you to take up daily walking or running just because of the supreme comfort. I can vouch for this because taking daily walks has lately become my thing. Regular walking not only lowers blood sugar levels but also aids in digestion and increases longevity.
Interestingly, these sneakers have also earned a celebrity endorsement. I had the opportunity of interviewing Chase Stokes in New York last month. During our conversation, he mentioned his partnership with Brooks and couldn’t help but agree with my statement on these shoes’ comfort.
“The Glycerin Max sneakers are now my preferred choice,” the Uglies and Outer Banks star told me. “This is actually the first shoe I wore while recovering from a knee injury that didn’t cause me any pain.”
Brooks enjoy a reputable following among sneaker enthusiasts. If you’re contemplating investing in a good pair of sneakers, you should definitely have a look at the Glycerin Max range. Get them while you still can, considering they were just launched on October 5 and are already much sought after.
Sidenote, the listed price at the time of publishing was $200. So, if you value comfort, style, and support, it’s totally worth the investment. So do you think it’s worth taking a more in-depth look at these amazing sneakers? I believe your feet will thank you for the upgrade.
