Followed the reviews and bought half size larger. That was still a little short for a running shoe so I got a full size larger. I went with the Brooks Ghost 12 over similar researched Adidas and New Balance options due to the color choices in addition to the technical aspects. Seems black and gray are the main choices in These other brands And I needed more pizzazz to feel good about! I love them so far!

Love the shoe feels great to run in plenty of cushion the design what can I say my running buddy is going to get them. It's a super fun shoe and the comfort is great I normally buy additional inserts, but I don't think I'll have to with this shoe.

These shoes were so great I purchased them in two different colors. The blue and gray checkered pattern is fun and unique and I am always getting compliments and inquiries as to where I got them. These shoes provide the perfect amount of cushion, have great arch support and a wide toe box. So glad I purchased these! I wear a size 9 in Brooks and an 8 in Born and Ugg shoes.

This shoe is excellent for running. Joints feel supported and foot feels comfortable throughout the duration of the run.

This is my second pair of the Ghost 12. They are great shoes--extremely comfortable and have a roomy toe box, which I like. I always order a size larger than my usual shoe size.

They fit perfectly with my orthotics and are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I had a pair like them before, and that's why I ordered this pair too.

I have been struggling with plantar fasciitis for several months, and my podiatrist recommended Brooks sneakers. I took their fit test and the top recommendation was the Ghost 12. I took a leap and ordered a pair, and the relief I felt was literally immediate. The stabbing pain in my heel all but disappeared when I put them on. I still felt the overall residual pain, but Brooks gained a customer for life in that first moment of wear. These sneakers, along with some store bought insoles for extra arch support, helped me heal my plantar fasciitis almost completely.

The Brooks Ghost 12 is my perfect walking/running shoe. It has just the right amount of cushion and support. I have needed a wide width in other brands due to a bunion, but the Brooks Ghost has plenty of room in the toe box in the medium width. The Black/Ebony/Gold color is super stylish!

Great running shoe. I will reorder another pair. I ordered 1/2 size up but that is normal with most running shoes I order. Liked the looks and style. I run 4 miles per day, 6 days a week and these are adequate for that routine.
I'd also recommend:
Any Brooks as long as made in USA

Brooks Ghost running shoes never disappoint. They provide great support and cushioning. I have one foot which had a botched surgery and it is painful to walk on in most shoes. All the pressure strikes right on the ball of my foot. These shoes alleviate the pain and allow me to walk and run in comfort.

These fit very much like the previous Ghost model, which I like very much. They have great cushioning and support. The blue/pink color scheme is unique and a nice change from more boring color options.

I have worn Ghost for many years and have been very happy with the fit and support they offer me. I am also thrilled that I can usually find one or two color choices in a wide width as that is what works best for me. I only run about 20-25 miles per week and these shoes suit me beautifully.
