What to expect from the shoe?
Brooks Glycerin
Nitrogen-infused foam, extreme durability, and a new era of urban running - Brooks Glycerin
The Brooks Glycerin running line represents the pinnacle of maximum cushioning. The Seattle-based brand Brooks has focused exclusively on running for over a century, and the Glycerin model is their flagship for those who refuse to compromise on comfort. This silhouette excels as an elite running tool, but also stands strong in the wave of progressive urban running style – a trend that brings functional sports footwear from the trails straight to the city streets.
Liquid nitrogen engineering and extreme longevity
What makes the Brooks Glycerin models a mechanical marvel is the revolutionary midsole manufacturing process. Brooks utilizes DNA LOFT v3 technology, which is cushioning foam infused with liquid nitrogen. This super-critical filtration process ensures that the midsole is incredibly soft, lightweight, and maintains excellent responsiveness.
With every impact on hard urban concrete, the shoe reliably absorbs shocks. Thanks to nitrogen infusion, this foam is exceptionally resistant to material fatigue. While regular shoes tend to "flatten out" over time, the Brooks Glycerin retains its cushioning properties for an impressively long period. They are officially designed to handle 650 to 800 honest running kilometers. However, if you plan to wear them purely as lifestyle sneakers for casual outings, their lifespan will be significantly extended due to less dynamic stress.
Seamless upper and premium material architecture
Brooks Glycerin excels in every detail. The entire shoe construction is tailored to the ergonomics of the human foot and modern aesthetics:
- Engineered Air Mesh: Highly breathable, mechanically woven upper that naturally adapts to the shape of the foot and breathes exceptionally well.
- 3D Fit Print: Special three-dimensional printing on the upper that adds strategic structure and strength to the shoe without increasing weight.
- Extended cushioning platform: A wider base of the shoe provides natural stability and a smooth, seamless transition from heel to toe with every step.
How to style modern urban looks?
With their techy appearance, massive midsole, and organic lines, these sneakers fit perfectly into modern technical outfits. They pair well with functional running leggings, nylon shorts, or technical cargo pants. Top it off with a waterproof windbreaker or an oversized heavy cotton hoodie. Choose your pair of Brooks Glycerin at Footshop and experience the game-changing softness.

Brooks is a well-known brand specializing in running shoes. The brand was founded in 1914 by John Brooks Goldenburg and initially specialized in ballet slippers and bathing shoes. Over time, it expanded into making baseball cleats (which were also worn by Mickey Mantle!) and roller skates, and in the early 1970s it ventured into making running shoes. Global presence: Brooks has its worldwide headquarters in Seattle, right along the Burke-Gilman running and biking trail next to Lake Union. It also has a flagship retail store called Brooks Trailhead. Additionally, their gear is used by runners in over 50 countries, with a second home in Amsterdam. Brooks designs their equipment in the lab, but brings it to life on a human level. Their world-leading researchers study physiology and biomechanics to ensure that your every move is comfortable when wearing their equipment.
