Loving the fit and ride

Cathlin S 2 weeks ago Verified Purchase

Immediate love on the fit of these, the knit upper is fantastic. I've a narrow foot, so if anything Brooks like the Glycerin Max tend to be a touch too wide in the midsole for me. The flex is very, very comfy - I've taken it out on some longer tempos and hill sessions. I did notice a little feedback mid run in the midfoot of the foot I broke a few years ago. That is the kind of negative feedback I find interesting from a shoe, as it might be a sign the Flex is actually delivering on the promise of building foot strength. I'm optimistic it will live up to its hype, and in the meantime I've got a really comfy shoe in rotation.
