Brooks Glycerin Max 2 Shoes Green Gecko
Among everything in our Brooks Shoes catalog, the Glycerin Max 2 in Green Gecko is the one built around DNA Tuned cushioning stacked noticeably taller than a standard trainer, and it looks the part before you even try it on. The upper is a black engineered knit with the Brooks logo running in bright green across the side, sitting on top of a thick white midsole with a green gradient swoosh fading into a blue tinted outsole edge. This is the tallest, softest platform in the Brooks lineup, and the photos make that obvious at a glance.
Maximum Cushioning, Minimal Compromise
Brooks built the Max 2 specifically to push cushioning further without losing stability, using a wider platform at the base to keep the extra stack height from feeling tippy. The result is a ride that feels closer to walking on a cloud than a typical daily trainer, without the wobble taller stack shoes sometimes bring.

Built For Long, Easy Miles
This is not a shoe built for speed work. It is built for the long Sunday run, the recovery day after a hard session, or standing on your feet for hours without your legs feeling it by evening. The extra cushioning does its best work when the pace is easy and the miles are adding up.
The Case For Going Max
If you already own a pair of Brooks Glycerin and want more, the Max 2 is the natural next step rather than a different shoe entirely. It shares the same soft, protective character, just with more of it. Browse the full Brooks Glycerin range to compare the standard build against this taller platform, or see how it stacks up against the rest of our Brooks Running Shoes Men before you commit. Stock on standout colorways like Green Gecko tends to move quickly, so it is worth grabbing a pair while it is still available.
