I have bunions on my feet so must get shoes for this problem. I have never tried anything but New Balance but these are great! Have had no problems with my feet. Will order these again.

Brooks Ghost 7 - have owned 3 pairs. I wear orthopedic inserts in my shoes so this particular sneaker feels great. I see Brooks Ghost 8 are now available. Guess will have to try a pair. Would highly recommend.

I mainly walk in these with an occasional jog mixed in. I bought them because I loved my Ghost 6, but they were quite old and "used," and I was going to Europe where I would be walking quite a bit. They were fantastic and comfortable right out of the box].

The product was exactly as described. The service was excellent. I knew that I had REALLY needed a new pair when I felt the cushioning on the new ones. Great!

This was a pretty easy purchase for me. The Brooks Ghost works well for my feet (size 12 - regular width) I am a 5'9", 147lb runner (10-12 miles per week) who tends to over-pronate. This neutral shoe seems to work well under those conditions. I have a stability shoe in my favorites that I'm thinking of ordering to rotate in with this one. The only local running store that carries shoes in my size only had one style. They were not comfortable, and they were not pretty. These are both! I love them! Thank you Zappos!

First, Zappis is a fabulous company with about the best customer service I have come across as a consumer. As for the Brooks Ghost 7, it was the first time in 20 years I strayed from ASICS, which for some reason just were not working for my feet anymore (too tight in toe box). A friend said she Loved the Ghosts and so I gave them a try. Though not as cushiony as the ASIC Nimbus, I find the Brooks very comfortable w no break in time needed, and the toe box was much more comfortable as it was wider than the ASICS in the toe box (but not too wide). Having these Brooks Ghosts a few weeks now, I love them and definitely recommend them to others!! An excellent shoe!

These shoes are fantastic! So comfortable, and roomier in the toe area. I ordered a half size larger than my normal shoe size, and they are perfect!

Very comfortable and well made. One of the few athletic shoes that comes in a wide width. I have worn Brooks shoes for about five years even though I am not a runner. I thought I wanted hiking shoes for an upcoming vacation which will involve lots of walking, but all the hiking shoes are so heavy. Due to a bunion on my right foot, I need a wide width in the toe box. This shoe fits my needs. Also good for just going to the gym.

Brooks Ghost 7 are some of the best running shoes I have found. I am a neutral pronation runner and they provide great support and comfort. They have a broad toe bed which is very nice.

Bought these for my 19 year old daughter to train for her marathon and she loves them! Her feet are no longer sore and they don't blister anymore either. Thank you Brooks!

Just love Brooks. And I think this is the best Ghost yet. Cushy in all the right places and the wide width is great. I only wish with the wide you had more than the one color to choose from. But I've found if I don't like the color this year, there is always next year to see what the color choice is. So if I like the color I'll usually buy 2 pairs and wait and see what the next color will be.

I was a bit worried about ordering athletic shoes without trying them on first, but I know Zappos has a first-class return policy, so I ordered these. Perfect fit! Very comfortable and my arch supports fit in just right! I wish they had these in black because I'd get them to wear with my jeans. I keep the ones I got for treadmill.

I love these shoes. I have had trouble finding walking shoes that provide enough cushioning. These are great.

Great fit for me with wide toe box. Purchased a similar style Brooks 8 years ago (4 pairs in fact) and walked many many miles with those without any blisters or soreness. Definitely time for new shoes and these seem to be as terrific as the earlier style

Good fit with lots of cushioning. The toe box is a little wide if you have very narrow feet, but overall very comfortable shoes.

Love my Ghosts. I started wearing the Ghost 4 because my orthotics fit in them well. I loved them. No shin problems, no knee problems and my feet were happy. In between ghost 6 and my new ghost 7s, I tried Asics and Merrills. Not happy. Went back to Ghosts and my body is happy again.

This is my second ghost. I have very wide feet and still have to go up a half size even with the wides, but they are very comfortable and supportive. I walk 3-4 miles daily.

I loved the shoe, the fit the style everything. Then after I had been wearing them about a month the sole started to just crumble away. It was like the rubber turned to powder, but only on one shoe. I contacted Brooks and they said they had to have photographs, which I emailed. About month later, they wanted the receipt, I emailed my credit card bill to them. Finally when I had owned them for 6 months, they were able to "review" my case. At that point they said I had worn them out and nothing could be done. No more Brooks products for me. I should have just contacted Zappos and had them handle it for me but I felt like it was a manufacturer's problem.

The Ghost 7 is a very comfortable, cushioned and flexible shoe. The B width is plenty roomy for a normal width foot, perhaps even a tad on the wide side. This shoes does definitely run a half size big. I always wear an 8 in a running shoe but the ghost was too big and I had to exchange it for a 7 1/2. Fits great, plenty of toe room. I am also a neutral to very mild pronator and I don't think that the arch is too high at all, feels perfect. Thank you Zappos, as always, superior service!

Love these shoes! Just got them yesterday and wore them out around town for the evening and I was very happy and kept telling my husband I loved these Brooks shoes! The details in the construction are small upgrades to my usual Saucony and Asics. I need moderate to slightly better arch support, and a comfy heel, and these fit perfectly. I bought them in the Hawaiian Blue, and the bright rich turquoise color felt great with my jeans. I'm thinking about buying the same shoe in more colors. At this price these cost about $20 more than I usually spend on sneakers, but they seem worth it after putting on.

Got them fast and love them! Was replacing the same shoe -- the last pair held up amazingly! Fits true to size, on the wider side.

Love these shoes. Not only are they beautiful but as always Brooks delivers in comfort and durability. I tend to turn my feet in a little when I run and these help to correct my step to give me a nice even foot plant. My stride is much better too with these. I highly recommend these shoes.
