Great amazing shoe!! I alternated daily as a first time wearer of Ghost 11s (two pairs for running shoe recovery and extend the shoes I learned years ago). I was a longtime Brooks Ravenna wearer for many years. Ghost 12s are the best!! The forefoot has a better feel,cushion, and flexibility in the 12s. Got my first pair yesterday and ordering my second pair today. I am now a fan of the Brooks Ghost 12s !!

My podiatrist told me to get these Brooks Ghost 12 shoes becausee I have plantar fasciitis. These shoes cushion my feet, so my feet are healing now.

Great fit. Slightly roomier in the forefoot than other models; such as the Glycerin which is also a 5 star shoe (I own) Plenty of room for a mid thickness footbed.

Definitely a neutral ride with a focus on cushioning, as it's billed. This is my first pair of shoes that isn't geared towards stability, or have a low drop. So, it's taking some time to become accustomed to. Otherwise, it's a nice shoe overall, fairly good looks, wish they had more colors in 4E, but I do ok with 2E.

I bought a pair of Brooks Ghost 11"s last year and liked everything about them- size, width and style.I wear size 13 narrow and there are not many shoes to choose from. I tried to find another pair of Ghosts but there were no 13N in stock. I was finally notified by Zappos that a 13N came in, so I quickly ordered the Ghost 12. I have only been wearing them in the house, but they seem just as comfortable as the Ghost 11. Thank you Zappos for letting me know they were available. I find Zappos a pleasure to work with.

Shoes felt great. I moved from an older pair of Ghosts, and these felt just like my old shoes, except for brand new.

I have a high arch and these fit well. I do think they run a little narrower than New Balance. Very comfortable.

I owned a pair of Brooks Ghost 11's and decided to switch to the Launch 6. That was a huge mistake! I shouldn't have made the change... The Ghost 12's not only feel better than the Launch 6's, but I believe they are more comfortable than the Ghost 11's. Great improvement by Brooks!

I have a size 13 foot that is a little wide, so I tried the M, but sent back and ordered the 13 EE, they were comfortable and feel great on my foot. I always wear a 13, so the length was perfect and true to size.

I was a big Brooks fan near the start of my running career, beginning with the Ghost 3. Bought a few pairs of those. Then a pair of Ghost 6. Great shoe. Then, I bought the 9. That one, in my honest opinion, was a clunky, ill-designed dud. Fast forward a few years after running in Saucony Ride and Mizuno Wave Riders, I decided to give the Ghost 12 a try. The colors roped me in. I just had to have those plaid ones lol.
After a couple of good tread runs so far, these are feeling awesome. Softer uppers than I remember, and that familiar style of cushioning....not too soft, not too hard, but just right. The heal to toe transition through the stride is seamless. A very comfortable ride. I am excited to take them for a long outdoor run. I dig the colors of this edition as well. I like flashy and unique, and these fit that bill.
I'd also recommend:
Saucony, Mizuno

I'm lucky to have found the perfect training shoe. I have been running in Ghosts for over a decade. Soft, yet firm ride and extremely durable. I run 75 miles a week on the roads and get about 550 miles out of each pair.

Great shoe, I do mostly high intensity interval training with them. These are my 3rd pair of Ghosts and I am hooked. Used to be an ASICS guy, but all Brooks now. Cannot recommend them enough.

These shoes are very comfortable. I mainly use them for long walks rather than running. I have wide flat feet, so I can be a challenge finding shoes that fit and feel good. These definitely fit the bill!

My husband really loves Brooks shoes but we are returning because he needs a different style of Brooks for stability and these shoes are neutral. As always Zappos is amazing with their customer service.

I order my running shoes at least 1 size larger than my dress shoes and did so with these. Initially on putting them on they felt snug, but as I used them they are a perfect fit.

What more can I say, I love the line of Brooks Ghost shoes. I've been wearing them since Ghost 9 and buy Ghost shoes 4 to 1 over any other running shoe.
