“I also think some of the lower profile shoes I mentioned, the Glycerin 22, the Ghost 17, do a good job of taming the road without really needing more foam under foot.”

“you can definitely go back to the Glycerin 22 because that shoe is not substantially different from the Glycerin 23 and it's available on sale now for a price of $115.”

“With the Glycerin 22, I was really, really optimistic and hopeful that we would see some of that kind of compression there in the forefoot, which would give it some pace that it maybe lacked a little bit in previous models, but I just didn't feel like it was there. The foam felt a little bit flat.”

“with the Glisten 22, I didn't really feel like there was anything that exciting about that shoe. It was fine. It did the job. It was relatively stable. It was relatively comfortable.”

“I did like the 22, but I didn't really use it that much because I just had so many other cushion dailies that I just really really liked that had great foams in.”

“we're still keeping that DNA tuned midsole that was already on the Glycerin 22”

“the previous version of it was okay. It had the updated midsole in it, but by adding 2 mm extra track in the forefoot, it somehow made the shoe feel a lot nicer for me.”

“It's basically the Glycerin 22 with a tiny bit more foam in the midsole... I have the Glycerin Max and I have the Glycerin 22 from the last two years and I've worn the crap out of both and they last several hundreds of kilometers.”

“It's a bit more minimal compared to the Glycerin 23 for instance or Glycerin 22 for that matter, the let's say OG shoe in the Glycerin lineup.”

“if you want to compare weights to the regular glycerin 22 here um we're one 1.2 oz or 33 gram lighter”

“This is the Glycerin 22. It's got DNA tuned dual density mid sole foam and it's a very comfortable shoe, but it is a bigger shoe, a little bit more heavy.”

“It doesn't have this like cushy plush feeling of a Glycerin 22 or a Glycerin Max.”

“what I really liked about the Glycerin 22 last year is that the foam profile got an upgrade and was really, really nice as an easy running shoe. I loved it for just my daily recovery runs.”

“the shoes that it's sort of competing with are things like the Brooks Glycerin uh 22, the Triumph 23, things like that where you're not getting loads of performance benefits from. They're very much shoes for everybody.”

“The Rebel and the Glycerin 22. There's a reason I keep bringing these shoes up. They're kind of made in the same way. They're light, they feel good, you can easily jump into a fartlick or a workout, and you can easily wear them for an easy run.”

“if you're comparing it with uh other options out there you can have things like the Brooks Glycerin 22 um that's more expensive than the shoe and to be honest I think this is a superior shoe to that I just think it's a bit nicer to run in”

“But overall, a very reliable, comfortable, long-d distanceance cruiser that's built to last with some very top quality materials, very accommodating with those three different width options as well.”

“I think you should still reach for the Glycerin 22 if you want something that's pretty much as comfortable as any other shoe on the market. And also, if you want something that has a bit more pop than your classic EVA easy running shoe.”

“The Brooks Glycerin 22 was a lot different from the Brooks Glycerin 21. Those things do happen, but by and large, the shoes don't change much.”

“The Brooks Glycerin 22 is the best easy running shoe of 2025 so far. Here's why. Shoe companies make this fast and bouncy material called Super Critical Foam... Brooks flipped the script and put a ton of it in the Glycerin 22, which is just meant for easy runs. And the result is awesome. This glycerin is way more responsive than a regular easy running shoe, but it's also comfy as ever and doesn't force you onto your toes or anything.”

“The big change in the Glycerin line came between the 21 and the 22 when Brooks introduced its own nitrogen-infused foam... And the Glycerin 22 was fantastic.”
