Introducing the Brooks Glycerin 13 . The thirteenth version of the top of the range in cushioning from the american brand. The superstition in the form of bad luck that some people feel with this number 13, runners included, seems to have been taken into account by Brooks when designing this new version, since the improvements introduced with respect to its predecessor version are so minimal that we could even call this new model as Glycerin 12.
The main new features and improvements of the new Brooks Glycerin 13 are found in the upper of the shoe, focusing on the adjustments of the seamless upper to achieve better aerodynamics and foot grip when running. Through the use of 3D Fit Print technology, Brooks has achieved better support in the upper, which has been slightly modified to improve the overall fit of the shoe. In addition, other improvements have also been introduced to make the Glycerin 13 more comfortable, such as the reinforced heel collar padding.
Both the midsole and outsole of this new Glycerin 13 remain almost unchanged compared to the predecessor version. The midsole with Super DNA technology, capable of providing up to 25% more cushioning. Its drop is 10 mm and, as for the weight of the shoe, it is 320 grams for the men's version and 263 grams for the women's model. For its part, the sole of this Glycerin 13 is perfect for runners with a medium or high arch. In addition, it has different zones to distribute pressure more evenly from the toe to the heel so that your run is more comfortable and you need to make less effort.
Although the changes introduced are not very substantial, perhaps due to the superstitious number 13, the design and appearance of the new Brooks model has convinced us. We are sure that many runners will be very happy to have new news from the American company, even if the novelties are meager.
As for the availability of the new Glycerin 13 model, Brooks has confirmed that it will be available in the North American market in June of this year at a price of $150.
