The Brooks Women's Glycerin 22 Neutral Running Shoe brings you comfort and support for every step. This cushioned shoe is a reliable pick for neutral runners looking for softness and balanced performance. Its bold Amparo Blue, Hyper Iris, and Yellow colors add style and visibility to your runs.

Built with comfort in mind, the Glycerin 22 features a double-jacquard mesh upper. This mesh lets your feet breathe and keeps them cool. It also makes the shoe flexible and fits snug to most foot shapes. The plush lining and padded collar reduce irritation, while the secure fit holds your foot in place. With Brooks' 3D Fit Print design, you get structure without any added weight.

At the heart of this shoe, the DNA LOFT midsole stands out. Brooks created this foam for the softest possible underfoot feel. It absorbs road shock, so your joints get less impact. Each step feels cushioned, but you also get the support needed to run naturally. Transitions from heel to toe are smooth. The midsole blends plushness with durability to offer lasting performance mile after mile.

The outsole is made from blown rubber to grip the ground well. It lasts long even with frequent use. Key wear zones are reinforced for added life. Flex grooves let your foot move naturally and keep your stride efficient. From city streets to light trails, your run feels stable and controlled.

Weighing about 9.1 ounces (258 grams), the Glycerin 22 is moderately light. It’s not the fastest for sprints, but excels in day-to-day running. It’s ideal for long-distance, recovery, or easy-paced workouts. If you want a plush running shoe that pampers your foot on long hauls, this is the pair to trust.

The design will appeal to fashion-forward runners too. Its colorways are eye-catching. Several versions include reflective details to help keep you visible during night or early morning runs. The sleek shape means you can also use these as casual sneakers after your workout ends.

If you are curious about how the Brooks Glycerin 22 compares to other neutral running shoes, you’ll find it ahead for softness and overall comfort. Brooks is known for quality and has engineered this model for versatility. Runners who need a good balance between comfort and support rate the Glycerin series highly. The Glycerin 22 is no exception and is recommended for walking, jogging, and day-long wear.

In terms of durability, both upper mesh and outsole materials are built to last through regular training. Easy to clean, the shoe holds up well to repeated miles. Maintenance is simple – just use a damp cloth to wipe down after your runs and let them air out between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Question: What type of runner will benefit most from the Brooks Glycerin 22?
  Answer: The Brooks Glycerin 22 is a great fit for neutral runners wanting maximum comfort. It is especially helpful if you do long runs, recovery jogs, or daily training. The DNA LOFT cushioning is soft and reduces impact with each step. While the shoe isn't best for fast races or sprints, it offers reliable comfort and fit for many foot shapes. Runners who struggle with sore feet after long miles will appreciate the plush midsole and breathable upper.
• Question: What makes the DNA LOFT midsole special in this running shoe?
  Answer: The DNA LOFT midsole is Brooks' softest foam. It cradles your foot on every landing. You get cushioning that helps absorb impact and reduce joint stress. The foam provides a smooth transition as you move from heel to toe. Even during longer runs, the midsole keeps its shape and support. Runners often note the difference in comfort compared to firmer options. It is designed to last many miles without losing its soft feel.
• Question: Is the Glycerin 22 a good choice for faster runs or speed work?
  Answer: The Glycerin 22 is best for comfort, not pure speed. Its moderate weight and thicker cushioning mean it isn’t as quick as lighter shoes made for races or intervals. However, it’s a top pick for longer training runs, cool downs, and recovery days where cushioning matters most. If speed is your priority, you might try a lighter model from the Brooks collection. For relaxed, everyday running, this shoe is a dependable option.
• Question: How should I care for my Brooks Glycerin 22 running shoes?
  Answer: To keep your shoes in top condition, clean them after each use. Wipe down the mesh with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Air dry the shoes and avoid heat sources. This helps preserve the materials and prevent odor. Rotate with another pair if you run daily to give the cushioning time to recover between sessions. Regular care helps extend their lifespan and keeps them looking fresh.
