Tackle Your Longest Runs with This Stable, Max Cushion Shoe

The first Glycerin Max was all about pushing boundaries and maximizing comfort, and the second iteration of this max cushioned shoe continues this legacy with a whopping 45mm/39mm stack height, finely tuned midsole, and new and improved upper construction.

The Glycerin Max 2 is designed to absorb shock and keep your legs feeling fresh during long runs, and the DNA TUNED midsole foam is crucial in achieving this goal. This nitrogen-infused foam uses different-sized cells to create soft heel landings and responsive toe-offs, resulting in a balanced underfoot feel with every step.

Along with this fine-tuned cushioning, the Glycerin Max 2 uses GlideRoll rocker geometry for effortless transitions and maximum comfort and efficiency throughout every long run. And while some max cushion shoes can feel wobbly or unstable, the Glycerin Max 2 keeps you feeling stable with each step, thanks to the sculpted heel bevel, wide platform, and secure fit.

The Glycerin Max 2 maintains most of what runners loved about the previous iteration. So what’s changed in the newest iteration? The biggest update can be found in the upper, which is now made from a lighter triple jacquard mesh. This stretchy mesh is thinner, stretchier, and more breathable than the plush mesh used in the shoe’s predecessor, improving the overall fit and ensuring every part of your foot stays comfortable and cool during long runs. So if you’re looking for an ultra-cushioned and comfortable long run shoe, you can’t go wrong with the Glycerin Max 2.

Good but not like previous model

I think Brooks changed the style/fit of this shoe slightly - this is my 3rd pair of this style and it feels like it’s taking a little bit longer to break in. Not that they need to really be broken in but more my feet getting used to them. I think they’ll be fine but that’s why I’m giving 4/5. Marathon sports always ships so fast so I will continue to order from them!
