Full details

FAQs

Is the Brooks Glycerin 22 a stability shoe?

No, the Glycerin 22 is a neutral shoe. If you require extra support, look for the 'GTS' version of the Glycerin, which includes GuideRails technology.

Can I use my own orthotics with these shoes?

Yes, the Linear Last construction provides extra internal volume specifically designed to accommodate various foot shapes and aftermarket orthotics.

How many miles can I expect from the Glycerin 22?

Generally, high-cushion trainers like the Glycerin 22 last between 400 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.

Does this shoe fit true to size?

The Glycerin 22 fits standard to slightly generous due to the increased volume in the Linear Last, making it very comfortable for true-to-size wearers.

Is the DNA Tuned foam durable?

Yes, the nitrogen-infused DNA Tuned foam is designed to retain its cushioning properties over long periods of repeated compression.

Troubleshooting

Sensation of heel slippage

Utilize the 'runner's knot' or heel lock lacing technique through the top eyelet to secure the rearfoot.

Feeling too much volume in the forefoot

Replace the standard insole with a thicker aftermarket insole if you have low-volume feet.

Excessive dirt buildup on the knit upper

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge dried mud, then wipe with a mild soap solution.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your correct UK size; the Linear Last provides extra room, so consider how your existing orthotics fit inside the chassis. To care for your Glycerin 22, wipe down the upper with a damp cloth after muddy runs and avoid machine washing, which can degrade the midsole foam. Air-dry the shoes in a shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the structural integrity of the upper and the compression properties of the DNA Tuned foam.
