Category: Maximum cushioning |
The Brooks Glycerin Max 3 are neutral running shoes designed to offer maximum cushioning, comfort and a smooth ride, particularly during daily training sessions and long-distance runs. Thanks to the high-profile midsole and rocker geometry, they are an ideal choice for runners seeking impact protection and a particularly soft feel underfoot.
The main innovation is the DNA RISE TUNEDcushioning, a new-generation nitrogen-infused foam that builds on the previous DNA TUNED. Its unique dual-cell structure combines larger cells, designed for softness, with smaller cells, engineered to enhance elastic response. The new compound is 7 per cent softer, 8 per cent more responsive and 15 per cent lighter than its predecessor, offering an even more effective balance between shock absorption and energy return. The midsole maintains a high stack height of 45 mm at the heel and 39 mm at the forefoot, with a 6 mm drop. This configuration ensures a generous amount of cushioning material underfoot, which is particularly noticeable as mileage increases or during recovery runs. Despite its high level of softness, the structure is designed to maintain a dynamic response during the push-off phase. The GuideRoll Rocker technology promotes a progressive roll from heel to toe, supporting the foot’s natural movement and making transitions smoother. This geometry contributes to a smooth and even run, particularly at a relaxed and moderate pace, reducing the need to apply a strong push with every step. The upper is completed by a flat-knit collar and tongue, designed to provide a snug and comfortable fit around the foot. Weighing 303.3 g and featuring a neutral design, the Brooks Glycerin Max 3 is particularly well-suited to long training sessions, daily runs, recovery and marathon preparation. It is a shoe designed for those who prioritise comfort and cushioning over extreme lightness, without requiring specific pronation correction systems. |
