Picked for: I've been told I overpronate and need a stability shoe. Daily training, around 30 mi/wk. What do you recommend?

Best stability upgrade

brooks-glycerin-gts-22

Firmer DNA Tuned midsole with clearer medial post control; Doctors of Running confirms it's the more stable, secure iteration.

Your current shoe

brooks-adrenaline-gts-25

Still capable for mild overpronation, but softer and bouncier than the Glycerin GTS v22—good if you prefer a livelier feel over structured support.

user: I've been told I overpronate and need a stability shoe. Daily training, around 30 mi/wk. What do you recommend?
assistant: For mild overpronation and daily training at 30 mi/wk, you want a mild stability shoe with real support but not overkill — something that guides without feeling clunky. The **Brooks Glycerin GTS v22** is your top pick here: it delivers a noticeable medial post and lateral guide rails that actually work, plus a firmer DNA Tuned midsole that feels more controlled than its predecessor. Doctors of Running calls it a return to "premium stability roots," and it's well-cushioned enough for easy days while staying responsive enough for moderate work. If you prefer a lower drop and slightly snappier ride, the **Saucony Guide v18** is a solid alternative at $140 — it's a milder stability shoe (less aggressive post feel) but still rated for mild overpronation, weighs less, and Doctors of Running notes it's snappier than the previous version, making it good value on sale. The **ASICS Gel-Nimbus v28** is worth considering if you want maximum cushioning for recovery and long runs, though it's rated neutral rather than stability — it's a great shoe for easy days but won't give you the medial support the Glycerin GTS offers. One quick follow-up: are you looking for a shoe that *feels* supportive (clear arch pressure, medial post), or are you mainly concerned about controlling overpronation biomechanically? That'll help me dial in whether the Glycerin's pronounced post is the right fit or if the Guide's milder approach is better for you.
user: Is the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25 still considered the standard or has something dethroned it?
assistant: The **Brooks Adrenaline GTS v25** is still a solid mild-stability daily trainer, but it's been dethroned — the **Brooks Glycerin GTS v22** is the better pick now. Here's why: the Glycerin GTS v22 is noticeably firmer and more secure. Doctors of Running calls it a return to "premium stability roots," and it delivers a clearer medial post feel with DNA Tuned midsole that gives you better control for overpronation. The Adrenaline v25 has mixed expert reception and feels bouncier but less locked-down by comparison — great if you want a softer ride, but less reassuring if you're specifically managing overpronation. Both shoes have the same 10.0 mm drop and stack (39/29 mm), so the ride geometry is identical. The real difference is midsole tuning: the Glycerin GTS v22's DNA Tuned foam is firmer and more stable, while the Adrenaline v25's DNA LOFT v3 is softer and bouncier. For 30 mi/wk of daily training with overpronation, the Glycerin GTS v22's added structure is worth the $10 upcharge. If you want to stay with the Adrenaline because you know it fits you well, that's fine — it's not a bad shoe. But if you're open to a swap, the Glycerin GTS v22 gives you better overpronation control without sacrificing comfort.
