To use these Brooks Glycerin Max running shoes, simply lace them up and hit the road. They're designed for a smooth and comfortable running experience on paved surfaces. When it comes to maintenance, keep them clean by wiping them down with a damp cloth after each use. Avoid machine - washing as it might damage the nitrogen - infused cushioning. Also, store them in a cool, dry place. Make sure the laces are tied properly to get the best fit and support. Don't wear them for activities other than running on the road, as they're specifically designed for this purpose.
