Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 22 is a premium neutral running shoe designed for adult female runners seeking maximum cushioning and comfort for long-distance road training, ranging from 10km runs to full marathons. Featuring advanced nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned foam and a wide, stable platform, these shoes provide exceptional impact protection and smooth transitions; however, runners preferring a lightweight, minimalist feel may find the substantial cushioning and 274g weight less suited to high-speed track sprinting.

FAQs

Is the Brooks Glycerin 22 suitable for flat feet?

The Glycerin 22 features a wide platform that offers neutral stability, which can be comfortable for many runners with flat feet, though those requiring significant arch support might consider the GTS (Go-To-Support) version.

What is the heel-to-toe drop of this shoe?

The Brooks Glycerin 22 has a 10mm drop.

Can I use these for trail running?

These shoes are designed specifically for road running and may lack the necessary grip and durability for rugged, technical trails.

How long should these shoes last?

On average, running shoes like the Glycerin 22 should be replaced every 400 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.

Does the upper stretch over time?

The double-knit jacquard upper is designed to be flexible but durable, so it will adapt to your foot shape without excessive stretching.

How much does the shoe weigh?

The Brooks Glycerin 22 weighs 274g per shoe.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Try a different lacing pattern, such as the window lacing technique, to relieve pressure on the midfoot area.

Excessive heel slippage

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to create a runner's loop (lock lacing) for a more secure heel fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior shock absorption for long-distance runs
  • Stable base helps prevent excessive pronation fatigue
  • Highly breathable and flexible upper material
  • Durable construction suitable for high-mileage training
  • Uses recycled materials to reduce environmental footprint

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist or speed-oriented racing shoes
  • High stack height may feel bulky for some runners
  • Not intended for technical trail or cross-country terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Glycerin 22 shoes, always untie the laces before removing them to prevent stretching the heel collar. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and wash by hand using a mild soap and cold water; never put these shoes in a washing machine or dryer, as extreme heat can degrade the nitrogen-infused foam. These shoes are best paired with moisture-wicking technical socks to maximize the effectiveness of the jacquard upper's breathability. Rotate your shoes if running daily to allow the foam compression to rebound fully between sessions.
