This sneaker comes in all black. I purchased it for my upcoming vacation. We will be sightseeing and doing a lot of walking. I think this shoe will give me good comfort and cushioning. While it's not as stylish as an ankle boot, the black sneaker will coordinate with pants as well as jeans and will protect my feet from cobblestones and pavement. This shoe fits very comparably to the Brooks Glycerin - the shoe I wear for running.

The shoe is incredibly comfortable and light weight. It feels like sticking your foot in a slipper. I initially bought this shoe in a size 10, D width but it rubbed the side of one foot so I bought 10.5, D width (because half a size up is also slightly wider). Both sets of shoes are very comfortable.

Being a fan of the Brooks Revel, and also being sad that they now revamped it, I tried out the Ghost 11 and was not disappointed...I was pleasantly surprised by just how much I liked this shoe. On the very first day of wearing them, I forgot I had “new shoes” on, so that was an indicator that these are definitely keepers! Good width in the toe box and nice heel cushioning for heavy treadmill use.

I bought these after wearing the Ghost 10 for the past year, and I'm very happy with them. I need a wide sneaker because of my bunions, and these are so comfortable without looking overly huge or wide. I have decided to stop using my orthotic inserts, but this shoe could certainly accommodate an orthotic since there is ample room in the toe box. I really appreciate the soft and cushiony lining around the ankle of the shoe. I also bought the new iteration of the Glycerin (which has less of a heel-toe drop ratio) and it is also extremely comfortable. I'm very glad that I've switched to wearing Brooks shoes after several years in Asics, which simply did not allow for enough room in the toe box. The quick delivery time from Zappos was wonderful, as always!
I'd also recommend:

Move over, ASICS Cumulus. After reading Zappos reviews, I think I have found my new favorite shoes. The comfort and fit are reminiscent of earlier model Cumulus. Thank you, reviewers.

I really hated spending the money but it was worth it. My feet have not been happy lately so I needed shoes that wouldn’t hurt them during my workouts and these fit the bill. I wear a 9 and ordered a 9 and it’s the right fit.

The Brooks Ghost 11's are great. I took them, out of the box, for 5 miles without issue. No blisters/etc. The support and padding inside both on the arch and the rest of the foot is great! The style of this shoe is AWESOME - highly recommend for both fashion and function! I've been wearing Brooks shoes for 5+ years now (started with the Launch, now to Ghost).

Love these shoes! So lightweight and cushy. Before, I was having trouble with blisters from my big toe rubbing on my shoe. Since I got these, the blisters are gone and my runs are so much more enjoyable!

I've never tried this brand before, but I love how these shoes fit me. There is plenty of toe room but they are a bit snug on the sides of my feet which I need for lateral movements in the gym. I have a knee issue (probably caused by years of high impact exercising) so know I do mostly weight lifting and some aerobic dance classes. I think these will work out fine.

I’m struggling to find a cushy shoe in a wide width. The ghost 11 is very much like the ghost 10 I’m currently in. To me they are a bit less cushioned in forefoot. They are a little longer in length. They have better arch support than the 10’s. I’ve ordered this shoe twice! And sent it back twice! Sorry Zappos. (For the record, I’ve often worn the glycerin in brooks. I wear a true size 7 1/2 w in all of brooks shoes. This iteration of glycerin is too tight in wide because of the bootie fit. Smashes my instep section). The ghost 11 is a better shoe. If you have a normal foot buy them! They are superb quality. AND i think they look better than the ghost 10. Just not right for my old feet. Going to ck out saucony after many years

Fantastic shoes but did not like the solid black in this style - surprisingly made my feet look huge. Ordered the pink/black/aqua and love them. Thanks Brooks.

Ordered a wide size and width was great. Previously ordered a wide in Mizuno and they felt like a normal width.

I bought my first pair in 2013 or 14 from Zappos...where I buy all my shoes! I wear a 10 N in women's. I cannot find another comfortable shoe like it anywhere. I balked at the price back then but they are still fabulous fitting shoes. I do want a pair of new ones only not pink and black. I still wear them on long walks and when on my feet for hours on end in retail.

I searched high and low for a comfortable sneaker with lots of cushion and heel support - these fit the bill! These sneakers really fit perfectly, hug my heel and have a nice soft foot bed for cushion support. I used to be prone to plantar fasciitis but since wearing these sneakers I have had no trouble or flare ups. I am on my third pair! Love these sneakers - great for walking and running!

I finally replaced my Brook Ghost 7's and am so glad I did! These are the only shoes for me as I have bunions developing and need a wide toe box to accommodate (so I ordered the wides and they're perfect). I have a history of Plantar Fasciitis, too, so I need great support and cushioning, which these shoes provide. As I mentioned, this is my second pair of Brooks Ghost shoes and I highly recommend them.

By far the best pair of running shoes I've purchased. Great support and recoil when running. Easy on my joints. Didn't have to tie my shoe laces more than once and I only single knotted them. Amazing! Nothing more annoying than having to keep tying your laces when working out, but didn't have that problem with these sneakers. ???

I have been wearing Brooks Ghost for about 5 years now and the 11's are the best yet! They feel absolutely perfect right out of the box. I have a narrower heel and these do not slip at all and there is plenty of room in the toe box. They are true to size.

My doctor sent me to a Clinical Pedorthist for custom orthotics and he was the one who recommended this sneaker for me because of my chronic plantar fasciitis. He was right on. I love this sneaker. It was comfortable right out of the box and has enough arch support that I was able to wear them comfortably all day. They are lightweight yet supportive. If you have problem feet like mine, I highly recommend these sneakers.

I ordered up a size as I usually do with running shoes and they are perfect. I have worn Asics for years but the quality and comfort have deteriorated. After reading online reviews of former Asics wearers, I decided to try these because the reviews said they are like Asics used to be. For me, that is true. These are supportive, light and comfortable. I only wish they had more inventory in narrow sizes as I don't love the pink/black combo(thus the 3 stars on style rating). Nevertheless, I will buy another pair of these Brooks!

Order a size up for these. I normally wear a 7 but the 8’s fit perfectly. Super comfortable and lots of foot support.
