Glycerin GTS 22

What about the new Revel Max? They may work. Also the Ghost Max work. I have the Glycerin GTS 22's in the same color, actually. Have you tried the shoes with the original insoles?

I went to feet fleet as a totally new runner and they suggested a stability shoe. I went with the glycerin GTS and while they are super, super comfortable, after about 7 weeks I thought they were just too soft and cushy. My feet were always sore. Went to a very active and independent running shop to get fitted again and I now am running in the Ghost 16s which I love so much more. I had nothing to compare the glycerins to so I didn’t really know what to expect but I prefer a shoe with less cushion.

I only have two. Easy/recovery: Brooks Glycerin 22 GTS Tempo/workout/long run: asics Superblast 2 I think I’ll be using the superblast for my upcoming races too

I really like them. They have a very wide base so are nice and stable, especially considering how soft the foam is. Some say they are only good as easy runs but it’s been the opposite for me, they feel nice and responsive. Are they as stable as my Glycerin 22 GTS? No, but they certainly haven’t caused any issues for me

My local running store told me I overpronate and said the Brooks Glycerin GTS 22 was one of the better options for me. I used them for about a week and they gave me a wicked blister on the inside of my heel. I exchanged them for a Brooks Ghost 17 (which I think is a neutral shoe) and have been so much happier. Just my personal experience

Another vote for glycerine gts 22!!!

Vomero plus! Or glycerine 22. Currently loving the Vomero plus!

For races: nb sc elites; for training; nb sc trainers or brooks glycerine gts

I was thinking about these, but I don't need the extra cushion in the forefoot. Bought the 22's at a discount. They are feeling a little better as the mileage rolls on, but still feel a step or two behind similar choices. The 22's are comfy, well cushioned and supportive, but feel heavy, sluggish and big. They are my primary long run shoe at the moment.

Hey I had the Pegasus Turbo Next Nature. "Isn't that great" is being kind. It's an awful running shoe. Terrible transitions, clunky, hard to put on, not well cushioned, heavy, not responsive... It is a great walking shoe though. I'm something around 95kg. I really like the Asics Glideride Max 2. I didn't at first. It felt a little stiff. After about 20 miles it got a little softer and smoother. It's pretty light weight especially considering the stack height. It's lightly firm, but has endless depth of cushion. To me that's ideal for a heavier runner. I've run up to 10 miles in it without issue. I did some intervals at a 7:30 pace without issue. It's relatively nimble for being a tall shoe. Lockdown is excellent. I don't need as much cushioning in the forefoot, but overall it's a reasonable shoe. In my current rotation: Glycerin 22 gts : Heavy, comfy, stable, well cushioned, like taking medicine in shoe form (fair) Vomero 17: Soft, conventional feel, comfy (good) Balos: Soft, lightly bouncy, comfy, plush, very rockered, favorite long run shoe (awesome) Waverider 28: Firm, feels like an economy version of the Glideride, but high drop (fair) Noosa Tri 16: Firm, light, fast, stable, smooth transitions (great) I've run at least 10 miles in all of them. I've run up to 16 in the Balos and it's wonderful on the long run. I struggle to make the Balos go fast, but an under 60 minute 10k is easily doable in any of them. The Noosa Tri is the easiest to run fast in and the least amount of cushion.

WIthin NB the 1080 is usually a reasonable shoe. In saucony the triumph as well. I haven't run in a recent version of either. Every brand has a couple as tactful\_tourist noted. I have the Glycerin 22 and it's not my favorite shoe. Just big, heavy and not a lot of fun. I would describe the ride quality as medicinal.

I have no advice, but I know how you feel and can commiserate with you. I owned 4 pair of the glycerine gts 21s. I put 300-400 miles on all of them. Got a pair of 22s, and they are trash. They feel really cheap to me. I lost 2 toenails from them just testing them out of shorter runs. I did start tying them with a heel lock and it has helped. I am not happy with them at all, but haven’t really found anything else that’s any better.
