Who it's for

Reach for the Brooks Glycerin 22 GTS for everyday training miles, long runs and easy recovery days. It has real support built in, so it suits runners who overpronate or like a locked-in, guided ride. The tall, soft stack favors comfort over ground feel — great for high mileage and bigger runners, less so for racing snappiness.
