Brooks Glycerin Max 2 Shoes Metallic
Balancing a dark upper with a soft accent, our Brooks Running selection has the Glycerin Max 2 in Metallic. The upper is a charcoal grey mesh with black laces and a dusty mauve “BROOKS” wordmark, sitting on a tall white midsole with a mauve gradient swoosh.
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.

A Darker Take On The Max 2
The charcoal upper gives this pair a more grounded look than the brighter Max 2 colorways, while the mauve swoosh keeps it from reading as plain. It’s a version built for everyday wear as much as long runs.
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. Browse the full Brooks Glycerin range to compare the standard build against this taller platform, or check what else is currently discounted in our Brooks Store before this colorway sells out.
