Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 22 is designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum cushioning and a stable, accommodating fit for their daily training miles. Featuring the proprietary DNA Tuned foam, it excels at absorbing high-impact forces while maintaining a smooth ride, though its focus on plush comfort means it is not a lightweight racing flat intended for speed work.

FAQs

Is the Glycerin 22 suitable for flat feet?

Yes, the spacious Linear Last and stable base make it a popular choice for runners with flat feet or those using custom arch supports.

Does this shoe come in a stability version?

Yes, Brooks offers the Glycerin GTS (Go-To Support) 22 variant, which features Guiderails technology for extra support.

How often should I replace these shoes?

Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

While excellent for road running, the high stack height provides less stability for heavy lateral movements in the gym.

Are the laces replaceable?

Yes, the standard lacing system allows you to easily swap the provided laces for other flat or performance-oriented lacing options.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of excess room in the forefoot

Utilize the additional eyelets near the collar to create a runner's loop, which secures the heel and prevents the foot from sliding forward.

Accumulation of debris in the tread

Use a soft brush to gently remove gravel or small rocks trapped in the outsoles to ensure consistent grip on pavement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact protection for joints
  • Spacious fit accommodates various foot shapes and orthotics
  • Extremely smooth heel-to-toe transition
  • Versatile black colorway for everyday wear

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist performance shoes
  • Less responsiveness during high-intensity speed sessions
  • Not intended for technical trail running

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Linear Last construction of the Glycerin 22 is specifically engineered to provide a comfortable fit for the majority of foot shapes, including those utilizing medical-grade orthotic inserts. To get the best setup, ensure the laces are tied with sufficient tension to lock the midfoot while allowing the toes to splay naturally in the increased volume of the forefoot. For care, wipe down the outsoles with a damp cloth after runs in muddy conditions to preserve traction. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the DNA Tuned foam; instead, air dry the shoes in a shaded, well-ventilated area if they become wet.
