The BROOKS Glycerin Max 2 is built around one clear idea: to give you the softest, most cushioned ride possible while still maintaining a smooth, natural stride. With its high-stack cushioning and advanced midsole technology, it delivers a luxuriously plush underfoot feel — perfect for long runs, recovery jogs, or just everyday walking.
Under the hood, the Glycerin Max 2 uses BROOKS’ nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED foam, engineered with dual-cell technology: larger foam cells under the heel deliver airy, soft landings, while smaller, denser cells under the forefoot provide a more propulsive toe-off. The generous stack height (with a lofty heel and forefoot build) helps absorb impact, protecting your legs during longer miles. Combined with the shoe’s GlideRoll™ Rocker geometry — designed with a sculpted heel bevel and toe spring — each step rolls naturally from heel to toe, making the ride feel effortless.
Up top, the triple-layer Jacquard Air Mesh upper wraps your foot in a breathable yet supportive shell, allowing for flexibility without compromising fit or security. The design keeps airflow going, reduces weight, and provides a snug, comfortable hold whether you’re running or walking. Altogether, these elements make Glycerin Max 2 a shoe that delivers on comfort, cushioning and ease of movement — ideal for those who prioritise a soft, smooth ride over aggressive performance.
