Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 22 GTS is a high-cushion, supportive daily trainer designed for adult runners who prioritize maximum comfort and stability. Featuring the innovative nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned midsole and the signature GuideRails support system, this shoe excels at absorbing impact and keeping strides aligned, making it ideal for those who need extra help reducing over-pronation. One caveat is that the plush, substantial cushioning and wider base design mean the shoe is built for stability and comfort rather than lightweight speed work, which may feel slightly bulky for runners seeking a minimalist racing flat.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on top of the foot during runs

Loosen the laces slightly or try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet over the painful spot.

Excessive heat buildup during summer runs

Ensure you are using moisture-wicking synthetic socks, as cotton socks can trap heat and moisture despite the breathable upper.

Slippage in the heel area

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lace collar to perform a 'runner's loop' or heel lock to secure the back of the shoe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact absorption from nitrogen-infused cushioning
  • Effective stability via GuideRails technology
  • Highly breathable upper keeps feet cool
  • Stable platform reduces joint fatigue
  • Padded interior minimizes friction and blisters

Cons

  • Heavier than minimalist or racing shoe alternatives
  • Not optimized for high-speed interval workouts
  • Wider profile may feel bulky to some runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, utilize the traditional lace-up system to tighten the midfoot securely without cutting off circulation at the top of the foot. The Glycerin 22 GTS is true to size for most adult runners, but because it is a plush shoe, ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the toes to accommodate foot swelling during longer runs.

To care for your shoes, wipe them down with a damp cloth after runs in wet or muddy conditions to remove debris that could degrade the knit upper. Avoid machine washing or using high-heat dryers, as these can damage the nitrogen-infused foam and the integrity of the knit fabric. Air dry them in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the midsole's lifespan.
