What Glycerin8 changed?
Brooks DNA this new cushioning technology debuts in an anatomically shaped configuration in the heel and forefoot of the Glycerin8. DNA is the first ever cushioning system to actually respond accordingly to pressure exerted against it. This creates a completely customized ride for each individual and each run based on weight, speed, and force of impact. Brooks DNA is also manufactured out of fewer components than other cushioning systems, making it a more sustainable product.
Overlays; Brooks has moved from a strappy upper to a pliable midfoot saddle to improve the midfoot wrap and overall fit.
Stability; stability is improved with a one piece midfoot shank on the underside of the shoe between heel and forefoot, and a slightly wider outsole base.
Widths; you have asked for more widths and Brooks has heard you. The Glycerin8 is offered in narrow and wide widths for the first time.
