Fit and size are adequate, but disappointed that there is more rubber now than leather on the upper portion of the shoe.

The shoes feel a bit tight. They also squeak. I think that happens from the tongue rubbing against the insides. I wore them once and am still scratching my head whether I like them or not!

The soles are too stiff and the shoe is too heavy.

The shoe is very comfortable and stable, but it looks like I just left the senior living facility. I got the extra wide as the standard width in the Ghost was too tight. I may have been better off with a standard width on these.

Not as comfortable as I hoped. Heavier than I expected. Best shoelaces on any recent Brooks shoe.

I am a female who generally orders Men's 10D in lieu of Women's 11W in athletic shoes. I have purchased and enjoyed wearing several Brooks athletic shoe models in this size, but this particular shoe felt smaller and narrower and was not particularly comfortable. It is also kind of ugly, but I need slip-resistant shoes for work and most of them are ugly. Sending them back. For reference, I did take out the insoles that came with the shoes and replaced them with the CADENCE EX. This may have affected the fit, but as I stated in my review of the Hoka Bondi, I have no problem with the 10D in other Brooks models I have tried.

The shoe is well-made and feels durable, with good overall quality. However, it's a bit on the heavier side, and the sole is quite hard. If you suffer from plantar fasciitis or need extra cushioning and support, this might not be the best choice for you.

The 4E feels like a 2E and crushed my toes. This is the first time such a thing has happened to me, so I wonder whether the shoe was mislabeled at the factory, since I own other 4E width Brooks and other manufacturers' 4E shoes that fit perfectly.

My husband likes them, they are comfortable but they're very squeaky when he walks. Sounds like cheap plastic shoes.

Very dissapointed with this shoe because in the description says that the shoe is slip resistant and its not.

The shoes are pretty comfortable. I have no arches so it took a little bit to get used to. However, the shoe size they are slippers resistant they are not. I work in and out of kitchens, and the first day I wore them I almost fell on a wet floor. And it's not only indoors, after a rainstorm, the pavement was wet, stepped and almost fell.. Well, most likely be sending them back.

I had to try a second pair to get a wide enough width, then they fit just fine. I returned both pairs because they squeak!

Miss the originals. Got a new pair of Walker 2, and immediately noticed one of the shoes squeaked when I walk. But more importantly, I used my original Walker with my orthotics to protect my feet and avoid foot pain. But these aren't the same, and my feet here hurting minutes into walking around in these. Shame they messed up a winning formula and we're left with worse shoes. I returned my pair.

While i like the width of these shoes. I am disappointed in the fact that after only 2 weeks of wear, the front part is already peeling off.

I am a bit confused regarding the size of the shoe. I order an 11 narrow originally and it was too short, my big toe was touching the inside of the end of the shoe, The width was perfect, but I had to send them back I reorder a "11.5 narrow shoe size", Try them on, and this time the shoe width was too wide and still not enough space at between the end of my big toe and the end of the shoe. What is the right size if I wear an 11-size shoe?? Very disappointed.

I've had two versions of this walking shoe. The earlier version was better for the following reasons;
1) I feel that the soles aren't quite as firm as before, on hard surfaces although I"m not 100% sure of that because I didn't compare them "head to head". Still the shoes are really pretty supportive esp. if you use a favored insole like I do.
2) for sure, the "nonslip sole" is a bad design because it picks up small pebbles that cannot be easily dislodged.
3) the shoe laces are too long, presenting a hazard of someone tripping over them.

I expected this shoe to be more comfortable but it is not as comfortable as less expensive shoes that I have had in the past. Very disappointed.

The shoes are slick. The bottom has not enough traction for any moist condition.

These were purchased purely for comfort and support when walking. Although the size ordered was based on the site's recommendations, I found the toe box to be a little tight. I have somewhat narrow feet but ordered the medium width (as I always do). As a result of this, I find that I don't wear this pair very often, especially if I'm planning to walk a lot.
