These might be the cushiest sneakers I’ve ever worn. Love them. I didn’t notice that they have a tonal cheetah pattern…I’m not necessarily an animal print person but I like the subtle interest it gives. Recommend!

These are the most comfortable shoes Ive ever worn.Having had three back surgeries and being on medication it is such a relief for me to have my Brooks glycerin GTS on.

Still a good shoe, but the fit seems a bit odd compared with the 20 and 21, like the toe box was smaller or shorter? My first pair of 22s only went to 250 miles (all road) before I had to retire it. Wish the color ways were more colorful, but the black pair is very eye catching in person.

I so badly wanted to keep these shoes, but after several tries of both the medium width and the wide width, the fit was still not great for me. The cushioning was awesome, but after about 2 miles the left shoe rubbed on my sole creating a callous. If you don't have wide feet, these sneakers would be perfect! I was very disappointed to have to return them.

I am so sad to have to return these. They fit true to size and width. I’m struggling with ball of foot pain so they don’t work for me now. If my foot was fine, I’d for sure keep them because otherwise they are very comfortable!

I am so on the fence about these sneakers. The 7 1/2 was a good fit, but the medium width was too narrow - it left a callous on the right sole of my left foot after wearing for 2 days for my 2.5-mile walk. I sent those back and reordered the wide and only wore them for one day. I loved the cushioning for my walks - I am usually a Brooks Ghost wearer. I sent back the Wide width Glycerin but am thinking about trying them again for at least 2-3 walks. Since the cushioning seems so good, I don't want to give up too easily! Zappos is so good about returns that I am grateful to be able to try the different sizes.

I really like. I was wearing Hoka and was very surprised how comfortable these shoes are. Lots of stability and great cushion. And they look good!!

Compared to last year these are a different shoe with the main thing them not being as wide in the toe box. If you get the wide version they are to wide..they also feel slightly less soft then last yearHopefully the Glycerin 23 will be back to why I have liked every previous versionnot this one.

Originally bought these as just walking shoes, they are so cushioned and comfortable. After wearing them I tried them out on an easy 10 mile long run and they felt great! Highly recommend these shoes as your recovery and/or for you easy effort runs.

I would write. These is excellent. That fit is great. The fill of them is wonderful. There are a little on the cushion east side, but if you write them in by wearing them. Short pairs of time you will find. They are really awesome.

Like running on a cloud. First run I tied them a little too snug but since I adjusted that, they've been a dream.

Best shoe ever. I can now walk without knee pain. I won't be going back to Orthfeet that I wore for years. Not going to have to have a knee replacement now.

These feel great! Ive been running in the Glycerin for a little over a year. I do all of my runs in them, and just rotate through a few different pairs. The 22s feel slightly more springy than the 21s, which I love! My only complaint is the back piece of fabric near the heel I always wear ankle socks, and it comes up higher and rubs the top of my heel on long runs. Thats the only reason I didnt give this shoe 5 stars.

The Glycerin 22 is back with wonderful cushioning without over-pronation and the colors are sweet! My toes stay spread out without overlapping or getting squeezed.

Why are the heels of these starting to mimic the StealthFit? If we wanted that style, that version exists. I will be buying the 21s in bulk waiting for the 23s to hopefully go back to the true Glycerin design.

I really like the cushioning in the shoe, it is very comfortable to wear. My only issue, as always, is that since I order in wide the color choices are never quite as exciting as regular width. I have ordered mens in the past but don't feel that they are as comfortable. As I get older, my feet are changing and it can be a challenge to find a fit that will accommodate these changes. I have been a Brooks buyer for years and hope to continue running in them. More colors for wide, please!!
