Review on Men's Brooks Glycerin Quarry Grey Dark Shoes: Stylish and Athletic Footwear by Patrick Hilzer

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Broken leg from healing blow

I've worn Brooks shoes for 15 years. I love her. I recently decided to try them based on the great reviews and my previous experience with Brooks. Of course, there is no way to say for sure, but I believe the design of the problems increased my risk of twisting my ankle, which eventually led to my breaking my foot in October 2022. The outsole is designed to facilitate a healing hit to the outside of the heel (see image). Combine this heel design with the softness of the new Brooks shoes and it caused me to twist my ankle which resulted in a broken foot. Personally I would stay away from these shoes until they correct the rear heel strike design.
