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.

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.

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 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 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.

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.

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.

I use for walking and standing. They feel a little firm at first around the arches but then conforms nicely. It does have some nice cushion and support and stability. I am not an overpronater but do have flatter feet and they help with that. I tried the Glycerin 22 without the GTS first and they were way too sloppy for me. By the end of my workday my feet are a little achier than when I began, but overall pretty good and they are better than my other shoes. I do wish that they had a little softer insole like my other shoes that have a little thicker and softer memory foam insole. I don't know how they would be for running.

I was so excited to try the Glycerin 22 running shoes!
These shoes fit true to size. They are super comfy and have a perfect amount of padding and support. Most importantly, they are very comfortable. I like the simple design, its just enough but not too much. The fabric feels nice and the laces feel soft which I liked when tying. I wouldnt change a thing about them. I loved that these didnt hurt my feet when first wearing them like most other new shoes do. Im so picky with shoes but these are a win in my book!

very stable and a lot of cushioning. A little bit wider and roomier than I anticipated. Very good running shoe. Doesn't seem to have the forward roll that the GTE has. But it is a very solid and well constructed shoe, very good for heel strikers

Super soft cushioning. Nice fit. Wasn't pleased with the grip. Ran after a light rain so the roads were damp. The shoe kept slipping on push off. So if you are somewhere that gets a lot of rain, I would really think about before buying this shoes.

Ive been using these tennis shoes weekly for my running sessions, and they have truly transformed my experience! From the first step, I noticed how incredibly comfortable they are. The cushioning is just perfectsoft enough to absorb the shock with every stride, yet supportive enough to keep my feet feeling stable and energized throughout my runs.
One of the standout features is the fabric. Its lightweight and breezy, allowing air to flow through and keep my feet cool, even on warmer days. This breathable material prevents overheating and discomfort, making long runs feel like a breeze. The shoes also have great flexibility, which allows for natural foot movement and provides an extra level of comfort as I move.
These shoes are not only designed for performance but also for comfort and breathability. Theyve quickly become an essential part of my running gear, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pair of shoes that can keep up with their active lifestyle. Truly the best investment for my feet!

Brooks is one of my favorite go-to running shoes, especially the Glycerin model. I was first introduced to the model 19, and also ran in the 20's. (I didn't get a chance to get the 21's.) I was very excited to try the new 22's.
The shoe fits my foot pretty well. For me, I felt I could have gone up a half size for more toe room. However, I did rate the fit as "true-to-size" because I recently bumped up my shoe size, and wasn't sure if that was just a particular model, or overall. So I do feel it is true to size, and the sizing was my fault, I should have requested a half size larger. However, I still like the fit. It hugs my foot.
There is some cushion to the shoe, which I appreciate, but it's not too much cushion. I prefer running shoes with some cushion when running long distances. While I haven't tackled any double digit runs in these yet, they have been by immediate go-to since I got them. These give me just a little bit of bounce to keep my momentum going. Sometimes I do still heel-strike when I run, but the cushioning in the heel softens and cradles my landing.
I also generally run in a neutral shoe, which this is. I have an odd gait, so it really supports my foot and I feel like I have a lot of stability when I run.
Overall, I am very satisfied with this shoe. I'm so happy to be in Glycerin's once again! They are perfect for training for my road races and long runs.

These shoes are absolutely incredible. I do training 4 days per week in the gym and run long distance about 3-4 times per week as well. I also am a contractor and am on my feet all day long. I walk on small beams on the tops of roofs. I carry heavy loads frequently. I am on my knees or my feet for at least 12-14 hours per day working constantly. These shoes are absolutely essential for me now. I cant wear anything else. They have improved my stamina for standing and being on my feet. They have had a significantly positive impact on my level of pain in my knees, feet, back and hips. I was in a very severe motorcycle accident and shattered my whole pelvis and hip about 20 years ago and to this day I have never found shoes that have DECREASED the amount of pain Im in on a daily basis. I love training, working out, hiking, biking, playing with my kids and these shoes have allowed me to spend longer time doing what I love. They are true to size. They feel like Im walking on a cloud. The support, cushion, and not to mention style, are absolutely unmatched. These shoes are the best shoes I think Ive ever worn in my life. I wear them out to dinner and they look nice. I wear them running and they look nice. Theres not much more you can ask for in a shoe. The support is fantastic and my feet dont ache or even smell at the end of the day. I have people commenting on them frequently and asking what kind they are and how I like them because they look so nice. I really cant put into words the amount in which I love these shoes. Ive already been on the website picking out my next order and its going to be a big one because these shoes are what I will choose to be buried in. Just so everyone knows how much I love them. Ive recommended them to every single friend and family member whether they spend a long or short period of time on their feet per day because these shoes are incredible. Brooks has to have broken a record of Best Shoe Ever with these shoes. Just to sum it up a little, these shoes are comfortable, stylish, and have absolutely changed my life. Thank you Brooks for making such amazing shoes!
