Product Information
Full details
The BROOKS Glycerin 22 is designed for adult runners and walkers seeking maximum cushioning and a stable, anatomical fit. Its primary benefit is the integration of DNA Tuned foam, which provides targeted impact protection, though users should be aware that the high-volume construction may feel more spacious than traditional slim-profile performance trainers.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking?
Yes, the cushioning and transition geometries make them excellent for both daily walking and distance running.
Can I replace the insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the Linear Last construction is specifically designed to accommodate orthotics.
How often should I replace my Glycerin 22s?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles depending on usage and wear patterns.
Is the upper material waterproof?
The upper is designed for breathability, so it is not waterproof and may absorb water in heavy rain.
Do these run true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing, but the Linear Last provides a more generous fit compared to more restrictive performance models.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet where the pressure occurs.
Heel slippage while walking or running
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a 'runner's loop' for a more secure lock.
Insole sliding during activity
Ensure the insole is pushed firmly into the base and that the shoe is the correct size for your foot volume.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent impact protection from DNA Tuned foam
- Ample internal volume suitable for orthotics
- Smooth transitions due to sculpted heel and toe design
- Secure and comfortable fit
Cons
- May feel bulky for those preferring minimalist footwear
- Limited to specific size and color availability
- Higher volume fit might require lace adjustment for narrow feet
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, begin by loosening the laces fully before inserting your foot to properly seat your heel against the back of the shoe. If you use custom orthotics, remove the existing factory insole before placing your orthotic device into the footbed to maintain the correct internal volume.
For care, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the foam properties and adhesive bonds. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soap, and air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. To maintain the cushioning lifespan, rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to fully decompress between uses.
