Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin 22

I run/walk 10 miles a day 7 days a week and these have upped my performance 100%. No foot pain and more leg strength after using these. Would buy again for sure. I have no arch and completely flat feet and its so supportive.

I was satisfied with the speed of delivery. However, very disappointed in the fit of the shoe. The way the heel inner cushion is formed is different than any previous iteration of the Glycerin. The rest of the shoe seems to be great like any previous version. However, the heel is horrible and radically different. This versions heel does not even remotely hug my heel and is not a good fit for me. In fact, I don't see how it would be a good fit for anyone. Why such a radical change. Glycerin has been my primary shoes for years for almost everything except I use my Ghost for wet, muddy or grassy days because the Ghost has a grippier tread than the Glycerin. I will keep using my Ghost but will look to other brands to replace my go to shoe, Glycerin.

I put them on in the morning and do not think about taking them off until bedtime.

I wear a 11.5 EE wide Glycerin shoe. These are my size, and they fit perfect.

Not nearly as soft or comfortable as my 20's. Sent these back. Amazing how much different they felt.

Great. Shoes as always. I am a nurse and Brooks are the only shoes I wear.

I think the ghost 3 are more comfortable. I'm not too happy with the Glycerins

I've been purchasing Glycerins for many years now, and sad to say these are the first version that I had to return and give up. There were two main problems. The first for me was the heel cup design, which was either too padded or too shallow, and my heel would not stay down in the shoe. Each step resulted in a feeling as if the shoe was coming off the back of my foot. The thickness of the padding here, while welcome, might have compromised the fit in some way. The other main problem with the shoe, which may also relate to the first, is the lacing system and design. It feels and looks much cheaper and minimalized compared to the Glycerin 21. I don't know if the entire top of the shoe is either more shallow or more narrow, but my foot doesn't really fit in the 22 as it has in past versions. I noticed the laces don't sit as close together from side-to-side. Out of curiosity, I measured the difference in the two, and in the 21, my lace holes were 2" (inches) apart. In the new 22, my lace holes were 2.5" (inches) apart. In other words, there was an added half-inch of width in the laces, which could be a big reason why the shoe doesn't fit as well, as if the shoe doesn't wrap around the top of my foot to a close. This could certainly be limited to my unique foot anatomy, but it is quite the disappointment. As I said, I've been buying Glycerins for years with minimal concerns. These, however, I could not wear. Looks like I'm rebuying the 21s.

Nice fit not as soft as Ghost Max and harder to break in

It's a light-weight, comfortable, everyday trainer. Love them for treadmill and road.

As a big fan of Glycerin 21, I was very excited to try on the glycerin 22 as they have much better kind of choices. Unfortunately, I found the shoe incredibly uncomfortable in the arch and across the midsection. I don't know what they did to it but, totally disappointed.

Amazing running shoe! Looks good, feels great, and the transitions are so smooth! It feels like youre running on air! Highly recommend the Glycerin 22!

love the looks and fit. Brooks shoes are definitely my favorite

My Favorite Brooks so far! Feels fast and light, feels lighter than Ghost Max with more cushion than Ghost. I have all 3, these Glycerin are my favorite! Please make more colors in 4E for us extra wide feet people!

Comfortable clouds for your feet. As a PT, I recommend these shoes to anyone with a neutral foot that need extra cushioning. I bought the 4E model, as I have wide feet and they fit like a dream.

Unfortunately, this new version in a 2E is extremely narrow. I had to return them. They only offer 4E in the gray and black colorway which sold out. I wish they gave more options in a 4E in other colorways, so I can give them a try.

I have had a terrible time finding any type shoe for my wide feet. When I get a 4E shoe my heel slides up and down. When I get a 3E or wide, they squeeze my toes. The Glycerin 22 fits perfectly.

I have been trying to find the most comfortable shoe out there. I stand all day at work. I had tried many shoes. Mostly Brooks and Hoka. I feel I have found the shoe I have been looking for. The Glycerin 22 is my top choice for now. They are like pillows from Heaven for my feet. I am going to stop looking for the best shoe options out there. I feel The Glycerin 22 has met my needs.

I bought the Glyrecin 22 shoes expecting a big upgrade. Okay shoes but going back to Glyrecin 21.

Excellent upgrade. So far I would give it a 4.5. Great feel, comfortable and roomy. Im really curious to find out how the tread holds up. Great job by the brooks team. I hope a grey color gets released without a black sole.

Love these shoes and the color. I have the Glycerin 21's also. Wish they came in x-wide, but they do fit. Feel good on my feet when wearing them all day.

I loved the fit and the way the felt. However, the heel is a little to thick which causes more lower back pain in men. If you can make them more rocker style with a little smaller heel thickness I will be a faithful customer. Caused lower back pain Love fit. However, the heel is too thick which causes lower back pain.

Extremely comfortable and the wife was actually wide.

These shoes feel like my big toe had dug into the sole. Feels like it has settled in deeper than the rest of my toes

An upgrade from the Glycerin 21. Since the forefoot is more reactive my feet feel more balanced and the cushioning feels more consistent.
