Customer Reviews Brooks Glycerin GTS 22

I have been a loyal fan of the Brooks Glycerin GTS for several years. These shoes are terrible! I don't know why y'all messed up such a good thing. Go back to the old design because these shoes are not it! I would give this ZERO Stars if I could!

I agree with other reviewers in that this version doesnt fit, nor feel as comfy and supportive, as previous versions of the Glycerin GTS. Its somehow more narrow, less springy, and less stable. Im majorly bummed that I need to start searching for a new plush and supportive running shoe, especially because I LOVED the previous versions. :-(

This is my first Brooks purchase and I'm a FAN! I'm pretty specific and this is the right drop, roomy enough toe box, not too squishy soft but definitely cushioned but slightly firm enough to feel responsive. The softness of the heel landing plus the springy toe-off is as advertised. The fit might be slightly short, but I didn't want to size up because the rest of the fit was perfect. I'll be checking out other Brooks models from here!

These are my favorite Brooks! They are so supportive and so comfortable. I love the wider toe box, and the laces accommodate my higher instep. Love love love

Love them !! So comfortable and lightweight

I absolutely love these shoes as they give great support and a bit more cushioning than my Adrenaline GTS. I was able to run a half marathon in these with ease and less fatigue than normal and wear them every day on my feet as a PTA and my workouts also that give me extra foot and ankle support whatever I am doing, walking, running, lifting in the gym...etc! I am sold on these!!

This is a big step back from the Glycerin 21. I do not like the new cuff along the heel. It's bulky and it rubs the side of my ankle. The Glycerin 21 fixed some sizing issues that I had in the 20, so I am sad that the 22 is so different. I'm a loyal Glycerin user so I hope the next generation goes back to how it was before, otherwise I'll need to find something else.

I had foot surgery a couple months ago and have a plate and some screws in there now. I needed a shoe that would accommodate for having hyper mobility in my foot joints. The GTS version of this shoe is really great with helping stabilize my feet! I also have poor balance and I think it also helps with that. I also got these in a wide and the toe box is appropriately accommodating!

I walk on concrete all day, these shoes are very comfortable and it feels like I am floating on air. My feet don't feel tired after a day of running around.

I just started wearing Brooks Glycerin GTS 21 they are so comfortable, so I assumed the 22 version would be even better these shoes were the worse I wore them for two days maybe a maximum of 3-4 hrs total my inner ankle is so sore never had this problem with any shoe. Go back to the 21 version. I had to return them.

IMO it's a big improvement over the Glycerin GTS 21. It's more comfortable overall with lots of cushioning underfoot, and I like the extra padding around the heal. The purple color is really pretty. I had to go up a 1/2 size from last year's model, so I would say it runs a bit on the small size. I started with my standard 7.5 and had to return for an 8.

Pretty shoe; comfortable and lots of compliments

I love the stability of these shoes, while still getting the cushioning with every step. These are the best running shoes Ive ever owned. Plus, they are super cute! Ive had so many compliments on them.

Does not feel like a wide fit. Heel support is only around edge - not solid support. Won't purchase Brooks again.

I am absolutely in love with these shoes! They are so soft but not squishy soft. I also have the Adrenaline 24 gts. I have had Hokas for several years now. I was finding that no matter which one I wore, my foot pain continued to remain. I had worn custom inserts for years for plantar fasciitis. They seem to do really well. Turns out I am now flat-footed, and my arch collapses when I stand. I have tried everything to stop the heel pain and arch pain. I bought these recently, and I can say my foot pain is gone. It was instant relief. I have been able to stand for a long time while teaching my students and move about the room. If you have foot pain, I highly recommend getting these. I will never go back to any other shoe. Thank you, Brooks!

great light shoe! I love it for my treadmill running and walking. It is a supportive balanced shoe

I have worn the Glycerin GTS 21 for almost a year and loved them. I was excited when these came out in a nice color and ordered the same size. As soon as I put them on I noticed the difference in the heel/ankle portion. They just dont fit my foot like the previous ones did. Theyre comfortable when standing but when walking my heel slides no matter how tight I tie them and even doing the ankle lock. Im having to return them and I guess Ill look for last years style.

Super comfy for walking/jogging. Feel lightweight and are very cute!

I have Ariel, Adrenaline, Adduction shoes, but I am planning to buy more Glycerin. I have 2 pairs, and absolutely love them. So comfortable. Great support and stability. There is a HUGE problem, though. My podiatrist said I need wide shoes, and Brooks has very few styles in wide. If I want black, I'm in luck. But if I want colorful, pretty shoes, there's not much to choose from. A recent ad for new Glycerin colors got me in the mood to shop, but NOT ONE of the colors came in wide. Brooks missed selling me more shoes. I just came into some money and would have bought at least 2 pairs, if they came in wide. I've worn Brooks for years, but I've asked multiple times for more choices in wide widths. I currently have 8 pairs of Brooks shoes. I have been a loyal customer; where's YOUR loyalty to me?

Didn't love them and they are already walked through I bought them a few days ago
