I receive so many compliments. Great color! Not only that, excellent support for walking/running. This is my third pair of Brooks. I’m not a runner (trying though). These sneakers are like clouds. Thank you Zappos for your selection of quality products.

Reviewed at Brooks Running
This is a very comfortable shoe for my workouts at the gym. I love how it absorbs the impact of each foot pounding the floor. I don't have the knee pain after my workouts and my balance seems improved. The only complaint that I can possibly have is that I wish it came in more color options.

I normally wear size 5 1/2 and ordered size 6 as I normally do for all athletic shoes to accommodate orthotics for high arches, bunions and plantar fasciitis. I also have sciatica and ankle pain. The Ghost 12 fits perfectly and so far no issues walking in them. They are very comfortable with lots of cushion at least compared to other brands I’ve tried. I’m a little concerned about the fabric of the shoe holding up. Otherwise, an excellent shoe that looks good too.

This is the first time I have bought and worn Brooks shoes. I am not a runner, but I stand all day at work and needed a shoe that had good support and cushion. I love my Ghost 12’s! I wear insoles to correct my low arch and therefore needed a neutral type support in a shoe. My feet hurt the first two days after working in them, but I attribute that to breaking them in. I have arch and overall feet & ankle issues, so I don’t think there will ever be a time after standing 8-9 hours a day that my feet won’t hurt to some degree in any shoe. Since wearing them daily and getting better used to them, they are really comfortable and supportive. I have a narrow foot, yet I ordered a medium with and they fit great. Also has lots of toe room. I usually wear a 10 to a 10 1/2 size shoe, but I ordered an 11 to fit my insoles. They are the perfect size and I love the pink plaid pattern that I picked. I get lots of compliments on them! Very impressed & satisfied with the Ghost 12.

Great comfortable shoe! I have plantar fasciitis and this is the first tennis shoe that has made working out painless again. Highly recommend! I even bought another pair.

Just received my Ghost 12. Got the granite/peacoat/peach color. Was not sure I would like the color but I do. So far so good on the fit. Will update later on wear and tear.

This is the first pair of Brooks and I have to say that I love them. I would definitely recommend to family and friends. I see another pair in my future.

I first tried this pair and another brand when looking for new running shoes. Fell in love with the ghost 12. A few months later I needed a new pair of work shoes, I work ten hour shifts on my feet. These feel like walking on clouds. I wear an 8 in these, my usual size.

I am a Brooks fan; this is my first time buying the Ghost. I immediately knew they were going to be a hit when I put them on. Enough cushion, support, and room. They are stylish and functional. I will more than likely buy them again!

I didn't even need to break them in, they were perfect from the start. I will say I wish all the crazy style options were available in the wide sizes. The shoes feel great and my feet and legs love all the cushioning and support. I average 5 miles a day of walking, and these are perfect for that.

I have worn Ghost 7, 10 in the past. I typically wear a 9 1/2 or 10 in a street shoe. I've worn size 10 and 10 1/2 in the Ghost series in the past. The size 11 fit the best in the Ghost 12.

Excellent; since I use these shoes for a combination of Elliptical Trainer, excercise DVD's, and dancing around, I need a shoe that can carry me horizontally and change direction, not always going straight ahead, as in running. These shoes can do it all.

I have several pairs of Ghost 10, which I love, so was worried the Ghost 12 wouldn’t fit as well. They are actually more comfortable, especially in the heel area which seems more cushioned. Plenty of room in the toe box, needed for my bunions!

These are my second brooks ghost shoes. They are very supportive and comfortable. They offer stability and comfort. I order size 9.5 in them even though my usual shoe size is 8.5-9.
