Brooks Glycerin Max 3
The Glycerin Max 3 continues Brooks's super-stack cruiser with DNA Tuned foam and the GlideRoll rocker, with incremental fit and outsole updates. It is for runners who want the most cushioned shoe in the Brooks lineup for long and easy days.
Reach for the Brooks Glycerin Max 3 for long runs, easy recovery days and everyday training miles. It's a neutral shoe, best for runners with an efficient stride who don't need pronation support. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
- Maximum cushioning in the Brooks range
- Rockered ride eases the miles
- Durable enough for high weekly volume
- Heavy for its price
- Overkill for shorter, faster runs
