Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 22

Love so lightweight, very excited to run with these

These shoes fit. I really want to have navy blue shoes at all times to blend in with blue jeans and not draw the eye down to the feet and distract from the outfit. Unfortunately, these are purple-y blue, not really navy or blue jeans blue. On top of that, the pink and baby blue on the bright white soles are just not a classy look. They are childlike, candy colors. It took me a long time to decide, because they fit and feel great, but I cannot get over the way the colors make me feel.

These shoes were sharp looking, nice and sporty EXCEPT the sole is very wide ang flat looking around the toe. The shoe itself looks great. The sole looks silly, duck like. Returning.

I LOVED the Glycerin 21s and have worn them for years with no complaints. Unfortunately, the new 22 model is a step down for me. They are much narrower and less roomy in the toe box. After reading reviews, I ordered them in a wide, however, they were still too narrow and I had to return. Usually I order Glycerin's in regular width and they are perfect right out of the box. I am disappointed that I will have to find a new running shoe now.

Fit and size ok; quality not what I'm used to from Brooks

I am returning due to the color being lighter than I expected.

There was not enough arch support and the shoe was too soft.

I really loved the Glycerin 20- these feel quite different from the ball of my feet forward.

Felt too small. Other Brooks' products are fine, actually better than fine, but this particular shoe was too small in size and width.

These were weird. I have owned several pairs of Brooks sneakers in the past, but this pair curved up in the toe box, so much so that my big toes were pushed up against the material on the top of the shoes. The tops of my manicured toe nails were digging into the roof of the shoes. I returned them.

Nope - Returned. Have worn Brooks for years. Way too much outside heel!

Fit and size were good and I absolutely love Brooks Glycerin shoes. Problem with this one...I did NOT like the color. It is clearly purple. I was disappointed with the color and look forward to my next pair of Glycerins. I'll be more careful in choosing the color (although it was described as: Color:Blue Ribbon/Peacoat/Dianthus. Perhaps I should have looked at what "Peacoat/Dianthus" colors are!!!!! Otherwise, shoe itself fit and otherwise is great!!!

I typically wear an 11 wide in sneakers. These were a half-size to full size too small. There is also this huge cushion at the heel so every time you walk, it the cushion presses up and into the back of your leg/ankle; it was uncomfortable. The toe box was too narrow, my pinky toe was squished against the side and even walking to try them on my toe was rubbing against the side. These are definitely not a wide shoe. I bought the White/Limpet Shell/Amparo Blue color and it's beautiful, but sadly it's going back because of the bad fit.

I’ve been wearing Brooks for years and loved the Glycerin 21 shoe. I really don’t like the 22. The lacing system is horrible and makes for a strange & uncomfortable fit across the top of my foot. I’ve been trying to adjust to these but after 3 months and hundreds of miles and trying different ways to lace these, I’ve given up. The also heel fits different than prior models, and I’m not getting the support there but maybe I’ve been subtly adjusting my form b/c of the fit across the top. I can’t find the 21 anywhere in my size so I will probably go back to the Ghost.

Unfortunately not for me. I first tried my usual size 7 W and they were way too small, barely could get them on. So I returned and went up a full size to 8 W. I could get them on and they just fit, but they were still sooo tight. They are not a true wide. The toe box narrows at the top, so my toes felt so squished and I had to loosen the shoe laces like all the way just to get a more comfortable fit. Which looked stupid because then there was a small gap between the tongue and the rest of the shoe. I'd say these are not meant for people with wide feet and a high instep.

it was uncomfortable

I have been wearing Glycerin's for years and this shoe is very clunky and uncomfortable compared to all my other Glycerin's. Sadly - they aren't for me this time.

Soles are as hard as bricks! Loved the style but couldn’t get past the hardness of the sole.

Not happy. Pretty shoe though

This item was very disappointing. The foot felt like the heel cup did not support that area. Cut too short in the back. Cushioning lacked big time. Right foot leaned inward. Not comfortable at all. Botttom line - - waste of time.

Disappointed in how they have changed the sizing on this shoe. They ruined it. I’m now exactly in between a size 9.5-10. Neither fits well.
