Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 12

After a 3+ year hiatus from running, I recently decided it was time to ease back into it, so naturally I had to find shoes. Multiple shoe quizzes suggested the Brooks Ghost 12 and they have NOT disappointed! I have struggled with runners knee issues in the past year and these have offered the perfect amount of cushion and support. Plus, I love the blush pink color and paint splatter soles. Such unique looking shoes!

Love this shoe - just ordered another pair exactly like it. I have ordered and returned at least 15 pairs of running shoes to replace my New Balance shoes. FINALLY, tried these and they are great! I normally wear a 5, but size up to 6 and they are just what I wanted. Zappos makes my search for small size and comfortable shoes so easy. Easy ordering and easy returns!!!

It was time to replace my old Brooks Glycerin shoes and I thought I'd give the Brooks Ghost a try. I am so glad I did! My feet tend to supinate and do not need motion control, just lot of cushioning. The Ghost shoe provides both in spades! I did replace the original insert with my own orthotic since I also have high arches. The shoe is stylish enough to wear outside of the gym and so comfortable that I wear them almost every day.

They look and feel great! Very happy with them.

These sneaks fit just like my past ghost 11’s. I love that my insoles fit comfortably inside. And I feel like I’m walking on air. I’m a NY girl and I love the design of this shoe.

I really love the Brooks Ghost 12. I run 30-50 miles a week. The are supportive and have excellent cushion without being too squishy. To me, the fit feels more like the 10s than the 11s. I found the 11s to be too firm.

I have a very difficult size and compromised feet. I wear size 11 AA, have flat feet that pronate in and a leg length discrepency. This is my third pair of Brooks after giving up on New Balance (toe box changed and made big toe nails black). This shoe is very light weight, accomodates my orthotics and is very handsome. I walk 3 miles on the track almost every day. I highly recommend this particular shoe and the Brooks brand.

This is the second time buying the ghost shoe. I love the way it feels. It is really cushy on the soles of your feet. I normally wear a 8 but bought the 8 1/2 and it fits perfect with my socks.

This is my second pair of Brooks Ghost. So comfortable and well made. Great fit.

These shoes felt great from the first try-on (with the manufacturer’s insole) to the following workout with my insoles. I have a wide toe box, normal heel and a high arch. Usually have to buy too long a running shoe to accommodate the toes and the arch. This is a new winner for me. Just right. Goodbye ever-changing Saucony.

Brook Shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have ever purchased. My Podiatrist insisted that I purchase them because I have tendonitis and arthritis in my feet and has helped tremendously! You will never regret purchasing a pair!!

These shoes are very comfortable. I had to order a half size larger than my usual size, but I am very happy with them.

They were very snug on my wide foot when I first started wearing them, but they were still comfortable. After the first few wearings, they've become my favorite shoe ever!

I always purchase Brooks and I know my size so every style I get I go with the same size. Brooks Ghost 12 is very comfortable, stylish and I like the new improved laces which are slightly rounded and hold the tie. Ghost 11 I have has the issue with laces and I have to do the double knot to keep them in place.

Loved these shoes. Fit was perfect. Cushioning was good but not excessive. Like the rather large shoe drop that it typical of the shoe. Have felt no plantar fasciitis or calf pain since wearing them. Room in the toe box was perfect and no more bunions. Great training shoe and nice style. Like them better than the Ghost 11's as they seem a little lighter and more lithe. Also have a pair of Ghost 12 GTX with similar attributes.

I am an old lady who walks 6 or 7 miles every day. I’m very picky about my shoes! I have been a die hard glycerin fan for the past several years but the look of the glycerin lately is not to my taste. I saw the ghost 12 while looking for alternatives to the glycerin and like the style and colors much more. I decided to give the ghost a try. I didn’t think they would be as well cushioned as the glycerin. I was wrong! I love ghost 12! It works well with my orthotics and is a better fit for my narrow foot. The fact that it’s my favorite color is a bonus! I am a very happy walker.

These Ghost 12's are perfect for me. I am a 70+ year old "Silver Sneakers" gal who loves to go to the Y and exercise. These shoes have great support, comfort, and style! I reward myself with a new pair of Brooks when I have had good reports from my heart doctors and that's because I stay active. Thank you, Brooks, for making the perfect shoes!

I've worn the Ghost in the past, about 3 years ago, and they have changed quite a bit. Though Brooks states they're a hi-cushioned shoe, they're much firmer than the softer feel I was looking for. They are still a well made, high quality running shoe. When I used to run many more miles, these would have been great. But for walking they aren't as flexible and have a firmer step feeling. They are rue to size and have a supportive feeling around the foot.

I love this shoe. And all the reviews about it being like a previous version are accurate. I wear a 7.5 Wide, have plantar fasciitis and a tailor bunion. The toe box is roomy with width and depth. Extremely comfortable. I have really high arches and prefer a bit more arch support but it's not a problem to add an insert for this. I love these shoes so much, I'm ordering another pair and will order another in a month or so in case they change them up again and I need another pair-I'll be stocked up.

I love these shoes. They’re my new favorite running shoe. I did end up exchanging the shoes for a full size bigger than my normal shoe. I wear a 7.5 normally, an 8.5 in these fits well.

Very comfortable! I love these!! Way better than the Ghost 11s. These are by far the best of the Ghost sneakers!

Great shoes! Ghost has been my go-to for years then version 11 came along. I didn't hate them but didn't love them either. With 12, I'm back to loving them again. They are a very nice improvement over 11. The toe box is roomy enough for my bunions in medium width, they are cushioned but not too plush feeling and lighter. One thing I will say, I got the Vanilla Sprinkles color because they are soo cute but the laces are made of ribbon instead of the usual stuff and came untied twice during a 3-mile run so I'll have to replace them but this is minor.

I love Brooks. I don’t buy any other brand.

I have new custom orthotics because I have RA and osteoarthritis with a high arch, very hard to fit. Luckily I went to my local store and tried the Brooks Ghost 12 and they were perfect! Unfortunately they didn't have them in the graphite color which I wanted and said they hadn't been able to get them. They were very gracious and said to try Zappos or another online store. Happily Zappos had the color I wanted. I used to wear Brooks but then I really didn't like the Ghost 11 so I switched to Mizuno. Those were o.k. but didn't hold up as well as the Brooks. I love the almost seamless construction with nothing to pinch my small bunions. I am going back to being a Brooks fan and of course always a Zappos fan.

After I received the larger size that I needed, they fit perfectly! I feel that the fit runs a little small for the size I would normally wear. I love the color and the feel of the materials used. I'm not a runner but needed these shoes according to my podiatrist for the bigger toe box area.
