Gear ReviewRunningBrooksPuma

The Brooks Glycerin Max 2 is designed for runners seeking maximum cushioning and impact protection for everyday runs, long runs, recovery runs, and walking. It features a high-stack midsole built with nitrogen-infused DNA TUNED foam, which uses a dual-cell structure to manage cushioning and responsiveness in a single, seamless layer.

The Puma MagMax 2 is designed to improve on its popular predecessor by being lighter, faster and more responsive, offering a comfortable ride with a good level of energy return. The main change is that the chunky stack of Nitrogen infused Nitrofoam has been tweaked slightly to offer an increase in bounce and cushioning.
