Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 11

Very comfortable for the first couple of wears. Good cushioning underneath, soft sides so minimal opportunity for pinching or rubbing of structure, adjusting laces was enough to relieve pressure on side of pinky toes. Very good first impression of Brooks and this style in particular.

Fit was as expected. Very comfortable shoe. But not nearly enough support for me.

These shoes are super comfortable, but I wish they were wider. My toes get squished on the left side. Beautiful design.

I have had multiple Brooks Ghosts in the past and they seem to change up the fit with each new version. The last few versions seemed to fit great, wide enough in the toe box. But this particular version did nothing but pinch at both the medial and lateral aspect of the toe box. I tried them for two months thinking they would stretch out, but no such luck. I ended up having to ditch them and reorder a wide pair, which by the way only come in 1-2 colors. The wife’s fit perfectly. Will see what Brooks does with the Ghost 12’s.

I love the way these shoes feel right out of the box - loads of cushioning, no hot spots - very comfortable for my relatively old feet that have lost natural padding. I ran into problems I didn’t expect with traction on wet sidewalks, much more slippery than I expected for an athletic shoe. Otherwise, they’re pretty near perfect. They fit as I expected, my usual 9.5 in athletic shoes in which I wear socks fit very well. There’s plenty of room in the toe box.

Just a little on the small side. An OK shoe. Nothing to write home about. No arch support. Removable bed LOOKS like it's trying to be arch support, but there's nothing to back that up.

At first I thought these would be ok with my foot problem but they still hurt lots of times I wore them. I think other people would have no problems as they are a good shoe

I'm trying to find a replacement for Brooks Transcend 4. Brooks is up to Transcend 6, but none are offered on Zappo's at this time. The Brooks Ghost 11 was very comfortable with a generous toe box. It's listed as neutral and indeed did not offer enough support to counter my pronation, so I'm returning them.

This is my first pair of Brooks, and I am really happy with how comfortable they are for walking and running. My only complaint is that the sizing is a bit off- I usually wear an 8.5 W in running shoes, and the 8.5 was huge while the size 8 is a bit snug.

This was my first pair of Brooks running shoes. The size 7 in wide width fit true to size.

I am returning this pair of Ghosts only because the left shoe is missing a shoe lace hole at the very top left. A little silver patch is on the outside but no one punched a hole in it. I need that hole to tie this shoe a bit tighter because I have had to switch to a wide shoe. And its absence is a bit annoying. I will order another pair of the same shoe and hope it is not defective. Otherwise, I am pleased with the shoe as it is light and comfortable and has a deep toe box. The Ghost is not as plush as the Glycerin models which have a smaller more pointed toe box.

I have been having a lot of problems with my left foot. I decided to try the brooks ghost. I must say not bad and they are the top shoe so far in the group I am trying. I would recommend them that is for sure.

Overall, a really nice sneaker. I bought these specifically for everyday wear, not for running. They are very cushiony and come in great color choices. I normally wear Brooks Glycerins for running, but I do think these would be just as comfortable.

Have been wearing the Ghost 10s for almost two years and loved them! I'm a daily walker (3 miles plus) with problem feet, occasional plantar fasciitis and problems with my forefoot needing extra cushion. Not sure what they did with the Ghost 11, but I had to order a 1/2 size up (from a 9.5 to a 10). Received the the size 10 and they felt really good . . . . until I ordered the Levitate 2 and the Glycerin 17! Now, I'm having a hard time deciding between the Levitate and Glycerin! I do like the Ghost 11, but will most likely return and keep either the Levitate or Glycerin. Zappos makes shoe shopping a breeze with easy returns!

Fantastic shoe for working out doing side to side lunges or whatever my feet need to do, the shoe stays put and is very supportive. Really great for narrow feet. Has excellent cushioning but not sure is the best shoe for being on the feet for 10+ hours per day: I've got two other shoes best for that.

I wanted these to work, but still couldn't wear my orthotic with them. I ordered a wide to accommodate the orthotic but it was barely a Medium width. The stitching inside hurt my skin. t the very least the foam insole was incredible.

Overall, it is a great shoe, but the Glycerine 17 was more comfortable to me - softer feel. If I had not tried them, I probably would have kept the Ghost 11. I had the Glycerine 15 before but wanted to try another option.

I've been wearing Ghost sneakers (and the GoreTex ones, too) for several years. They offer the cushioning, stability and support my feet need due to plantar fasciitis. The Ghost 11 run small! I normally wear an 8-1/2 and had to return those and order a size 9. Zappos customer service is excellent, and they make returning items very easy. The toe box on this version of the Ghost is very roomy, just as other reviewers have noted.

Really like the fit of the 11's. I have narrow feet and these work great with my orthotics! Wish they came in colors that were a little less bright, but tried these and they seem OK color-wise. My last pair ripped along the sides so hope these last longer!

These shoes have a great look to them and feel like they are built well. Unfortunately they weren't as wide as I would have liked and my toes felt smooshed together. I work 12 hour shifts in a hospital and need my feet to feel good all night. I also typically wear a 9 but will try again with a 9.5 because my toes felt like they were up to the end of the shoe by the end of the work day. Good brand but will try again with a EE width.

I went from adidas alphabounce to these brooks and these are so much more comfy. I got a half size up from my normal size and they fit great. I no longer have foot pain after being on my feet all day!

I've worn Asics for the last few years but wanted to try Brooks. I really love the bright colors on this Ghost 11 and it seems like a really nice shoe for the most part, but my usual 9 felt just a little too short. The bigger problem, though was the the shoe doesn't fit me well around my ankle,seems too shallow to cradle my ankle comfortably, if that makes any sense. So grateful for Zappos awesome free shipping/free returns so that I could try this shoe at home with no cost to me. I live in a rural area, so Zappos is a lifesaver!

I had to send the first pair back because there was a factory defect at the great toe area on one of the shoes. The second pair was fine. Got these in blue to replace a pair that wore out. My first pair of Ghost 11s ripped out along the inside arches on both shoes. Hope the second pair will last longer.

I really wanted these to work out but they put too much pressure on top of my foot but i have problem feet. They would be great for most people.

Loved the color online and even more in person! However when walking in it for 3 miles the insoles felt too hard and I needed more support. Was so sorry to have to return it. I have bunions and they were fine. But arch support was not enough for me.
