I am in love with these sneakers! I have been wearing Brooks sneakers now for a few years. These have to be my absolute favorite, by far! I will probably buy another pair while they are still available. I initially had wanted to buy the Glycerin 19, but they were no longer available in the color I had purchased previously. I'm actually very happy with this pair and even more so than the other pair. Love Brooks! They are extremely comfortable and have great support. I have problems due to an old ankle injury and I have amazing support with these, while still being super comfortable!

Please keep making these!
I have genetically thick ankles (you can't even see my ankle bones) and the pillowed ankles on the regular Glycerins make them look even bigger (and why is that area so upholstered anyway?). The StealthFit is so much more flattering! The cut of the elastic ankle (where it dips down on the sides) really minimizes my cankles. I've gotten lots of compliments on the elastic "sock" ankle. It's definitely a much more streamlined look and feel than the chunkier Glycerins, but without sacrificing cushion. No rubbing, despite me having cankles - I wear them everywhere.

Website said they ran small so I ordered a size up and they were perfect. I have terrible pain in my heel and I have severe plantar fasciitis and these are a GAME CHANGER. If you have foot/knee/back pain there’s nothing better than a Brooks Glycerine. I have these in multiple colors and styles all glycerine. All comfort all day. Brooks makes some ugly ass shoes to be sure, but on the occasion a not too fugly or reasonably attractive version comes out in glycerine I buy them immediately lol. You won’t regret it.
I'd also recommend:
Saucony. SOME adidas. Brooks glycerine. Dr Scholls.

As an above knee amputee, these shoes are just what I need to walk in with the perfect mid sole drop and the cushioning comfort for walking.

This is my third pair of Glycerin Stealthfit 20s. I have owned Glycerin 17, 18, 19, and 20 as well over the years. I prefer the Stealthfits as they fit my foot well, and do not feel loose or floppy when I run in them. The Stealthfits also feel lighter on my feet. They have great cushioning, which is a plus since I am an older runner. I use them for 5k, 10k, and half marathon runs. I generally put about 360 miles on a pair before I buy a new pair to start rotating into my runs. For me, these can be worn without breaking in. I also own a pair of Stealthfit GTS 20, that I purchased mistakenly from my local running store. I used those until they had their limit of mileage, though they seemed a bit clunkier than the regular version. They still had that fantastic cushioning under foot though.

Great shoes, just didn't love the color. Will return and purchase a more neutral color combination.

The Glycerin StealthFit 20 are both great looking and great fitting. I picked up a pair of the StealthFit locally. The limited edition color of white and khaki are so cute. Best of all, they fit so beautifully and are nurturing to my feet. My feet feel better than they have in a long time. I realized I needed a 1/2 size larger than I had been wearing in the past, and once I got this size it made all the difference. I feel the stress leaving when I wear them. They feel and fit so good. Thank you. I ordered a pair of the regular Glycerin 20 in the 1/2 size larger, so when they arrive I'll have both fits. Walking about 1 hour daily is wonderful exercize in our neighborhood park, so good fitting shoes help immensely. Thank you. Thank you!

I have been running in Brooks for about 15 years. This is by far my favorite shoe. I have chronic ankle sprains, and the way the StealthFit hugs the ankle is my favorite part. It makes me feel more stable. The cushioning is also great, not quite as much as a Hoka. I like to feel the road a little more than a Hoka provides, and the Glycerin StealthFit does that. As usual with running shoes, I buy a .5 larger than my true size.

Remarkably comfortable and supportive. I have a wide mid foot and narrow heel and this shoe hold both perfectly.

These shoes are very comfortable! They are supportive and with the sock like fit they expand with any swelling of my feet throughout the day during long shifts at work!!! Highly recommend them!!!

Brooks Glycerin's have always been my go to shoe. I've tried others along the way but I keep coming back to these. They are comfortable for long runs and provide the support that I need. I like to keep a couple pair in my shoe rotation.

I'm not a runner but rather a walker. The shoes are springy, comfy and do a great job. My only complaint - fairly boring patterns. Why nor adapt the levitate pizzazz into this model!

I really like the fit of this shoe. It is so comfortable, and I have a very high arch and use an orthotic in it and I have the support I need. And not having a tongue in the shoe is nice.

Size 5.5 medium width. A perfect fit with my custom orthotics. I have a significant foot size difference and these still worked the moment I put them on. I just wore them on vacation with a lot of walking. My feet were comfortable the whole time. I will be buying another pair of this same style. I have had great success with Brooks tennis shoes for the past couple of years.

I didn't realize that these were slip ones, but you can still adjust the lacing. They are wonderful. All the extra grommets and such are absent in this shoe . Which makes the show so much more comfortable!!! I will be ordering more of this style!!
