FAQs

Is the Brooks Glycerin 22 a stability shoe?

No, the Glycerin 22 is a neutral running shoe. If you require extra medial support, consider the GTS (Go-To-Support) version of the series.

Can I use custom orthotics in these shoes?

Yes, the Linear Last construction is designed to accommodate various foot shapes and is orthotic-friendly.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The Brooks Glycerin 22 features a 10mm drop, providing a traditional geometry for smooth transitions.

Are these suitable for treadmill running?

Absolutely. The cushioning is excellent for the repetitive impact associated with treadmill belts.

How should I clean my Glycerin 22s?

Use a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the nitrogen-infused midsole.

What surface is this shoe designed for?

It is optimized for asphalt and paved road surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of pressure in the midfoot

Try adjusting your lacing technique to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure over the top of the foot.

Foam feels 'bottomed out' after high mileage

Check if you have surpassed the typical 400-600km lifespan of the midsole foam; it may be time to cycle in a new pair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Brooks Glycerin 22, ensure you are wearing the correct size for your gait cycle, allowing for a thumb-width of space in the toe box. This model is highly compatible with most aftermarket orthotic inserts due to its accommodating Linear Last construction. For care, keep the shoes away from heat sources such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can degrade the DNA Tuned foam. If the shoes become wet, remove the liners and stuff the interior with newspaper or a shoe dryer to air dry naturally. Clean the exterior by gently scrubbing with mild soap and a soft brush; avoid machine washing to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and foam structure.
