Coming from an avid Brooks Adrenaline lover, these par up very well so far. In comparison, I feel like the heel doesn’t come up as high up the back making my ankle feel a little insecure in addition to the super bungy springy laces. The laces are beautiful, but I feel they lack sturdiness and support. Nonetheless, these shoes were purchased for 12 hour shifts, not running and I will be keeping them for looks and footbed comfort.

These are so cute and comfortable. I wore them to Disney World for a week and my feet felt great! They are nice and roomy without feeling loose or bulky.

I have a narrow foot and have a hard time finding athletic shoes that don't slip in the heel. Usually I have to wear extra thick socks or protection around the heel/ankle. Not with this shoe. When I put it on, it didn't slip even though I hadn't used the last lacing notch. My longest walks so far have been 1 1/2 miles. The big test will be my longer walks of 3 to 5 miles. Very happy so far.

I wear these shoes to my job where I work 12 hour days as a CNA. They are super comfortable and I like how roomy the regular width is, especially in the toe box. I have the red buffalo check pattern, and I have never been stopped by so many strangers saying how much they love my shoes and asking where I got them!

This is the first time I have purchased the Brooks Ghost model and I am really liking them. I wanted another neutral, cushy shoe for distance running to go along with my Brooks Glycerin, which is what I usually wear. So far I am very pleased with the Ghost 12 and will try newer versions as they come out. The only issue I have with my Ghost 12 Sherbert/Pink is the shoe laces. They are flat narrow ribbon type and seem to come untied often. It appears all the other colors come with the 'normal' type of rolled laces. I also use the extra hole on all my shoes, and the narrow ribbon lace is too short to allow me to do this. I will have to buy new laces for this pair of Ghost 12.

I have been buying Ghost running shoes for 7 years. I believe this version is the best one yet. It has the perfect amount of support for a neutral running shoe. There are no seems that will rub your foot and make a sore.

Sneakers were perfect in size & width - I had to use my own orthotics but the shoe was extremely comfortable. I purchased another pair. The only down side is that I liked the style of the older Ghost 10 sneakers.

This show was purchased for my wife. It's her third pair of Brooks Ghost line. She has to order a half size larger to fit perfectly. She is an avid walker, walking 3 or more miles every day. They are perfect for her exercise and for everyday wear. I also have a pair of Ghost 10's and love them. On these, I had to order a full size larger than normal for a good fit.

These shoes are heaven! I have plantar fasciitis and play a lot of tennis; these shoes are the ticket! There is plenty of room for an insert and I have been playing pain free for 8 months now. I bought some for my brother who is a chef and on his feet all day - he agrees they are the best!

Wowzers! How have I missed this brand?!?!?! I am a solid Mizuno wearer (for YEARS) and maybe just had my head in the sand? Idk BUT these shoes are GREAT for someone who needs solid arch support!! Try these - you will not be disappointed!! PS- I am a solid 8.5 and ordered the 8.5 - fit like a glove and I am somewhere in-between an normal foot width and a wide. LOVE. SO much I ordered an additional pair in a different color combo :)
I'd also recommend:
Mizuno

Im so glad Tonya (we got disconnected in the long care you put into, helping me decide basic great supportive Running shoes. As a fashion Designer, I have SO many floral print Athliesure. It is nice to have something simple, yet very stylish. Not Balenciaga, but I dont really think their series were mean to start a marathon! Thanks To Tonya, and Kelly! Both helped pick oick out the best shoes! (For me)
