Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Glycerin 22 GTS is a premium daily trainer designed for adult female runners seeking maximum plush cushioning paired with stability features. It is ideal for those who prioritize joint protection and a smooth, supported gait, though its focus on high-volume cushioning means it is not a lightweight racing shoe, making it better suited for daily miles than speed-focused tempo work.

FAQs

What is the drop of the Glycerin 22 GTS?

The shoe features a 10mm heel-to-toe drop.

Is this shoe suitable for flat feet?

Yes, the GuideRails system provides stable support that helps manage over-pronation, making it a great choice for those needing extra structure.

How heavy is the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 299g.

Can I replace the insoles with custom orthotics?

The stock insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.

Is the upper material breathable?

Yes, the Double Jacquard Warp Knit upper is designed to encourage air circulation while allowing warm air to escape.

How long should these shoes last?

Most running shoes of this caliber last between 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and biomechanics.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort or pressure on the top of the foot

Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelets directly over the pressure point, or loosen the laces near the collar to increase volume.

Heel slipping inside the shoe

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a 'runner's knot' or 'heel lock' to secure your foot more tightly against the back of the shoe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact absorption for joint protection
  • Effective stability technology for runners who over-pronate
  • Highly breathable upper keeps feet cool
  • Smooth transition provided by a wider base
  • Plush collar and tongue for premium comfort

Cons

  • Heavier than minimal or lightweight racing trainers
  • Not intended for fast-paced speed workouts
  • Requires proper sizing due to the padded, close-fit design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Glycerin 22 GTS, start by adjusting the traditional lacing system to your preferred tension, which will lock the midfoot in place and prevent slippage. When selecting your size, account for the padded collar; ensure your heel is seated firmly in the back of the shoe to make full use of the padding.

For maintenance, avoid using a washing machine or dryer as these can degrade the nitrogen-infused cushioning. Instead, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dirt. If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with paper towels to air dry them away from direct sunlight or high heat sources, which can damage the midsole foam.
