These are so comfy! I love them. I have the 20th anniversary edition and they are such a cute style. Not sure I love the "fat shaming" on the box though. if you eat a cupcake you have to run 5.4 miles to burn it off? That is projecting an unhealthy image of food and exercise and their relationship.

These shoes are SO FABULOUS!!!! I have both pairs of the limited edition Zappos and Brooks Happy Birthday shoes and I am IN LOVE with both pair. They are a magical, delightful, whimsical shoes that make wherever I am my happy place. Everything about them makes my heart sing! Just looking at the fun-fetti decorated pink box makes me smile and giddy with pleasure! It’s like finding out your favorite dessert contains all your daily required fruits and vegetables and you can have as many servings as you want with no adverse effects! I seriously want to buy two more pairs of each just so I have spare pairs in case anything happens to them! They are definitely a befitting celebration of lovely Zappos’ Birthday! They represent the epitome of fun, sass, class and style that is Zappos! I am a mom of three boys who loves to get dressed up and wear heels and be girly any chance she gets. The Zappos and Brooks line really is a l collection that has changed the way I see tennis shoes. I own 5 pairs now from the line (USA, Four Leaf Clover, Stripes and these two birthday editions). The fit of Brooks shoes is amazing! It feels like you are wearing clouds. So comfy and so stylish! I previously wore New Balance but these are far more form-fitting and cushy!Now if I have an occasion that requires tennis shoes (working out, walking theme parks, visiting national parks, playing with the kids) and I am excited that I have an equivalent selection of fantastic and stylish shoes that work. If you are looking for shoes that put a smile on your face and make you want to skip and dance and leap in the air, these are it! Buy them, before they sell out you will not be disappointed!

The Ghost 12 are so comfortable! I love this shoe. It’s so girly and cute. The only thing I didn’t realize was it does have shimmery shoe laces and yellow piping around the pink at the top. I’m okay with that but some people may not love it so just a heads up :) Also, the color is more turquoise in person than a Carolina blue!

These special edition colors are awesome. The Ghosrs are my go to running shoe! Do size a half size up from last years model as they run a little small

These shoes run a half size too small. So size up! I usually am a 10 in women’s shoes and I got a 10.5. They fit perfect. Very comfortable. Stylish. Fun. Perfect overall! I haven’t run in them yet though.

Perfect shoes! Best shoes for a mid-distance neutral runner that I have found in 10 years. Love the color way from the 20th anniversary - like cupcakes on your feet! Ran true to size for me with good support and a moderately roomy toe box.

THESE ARE THE "HAPPIEST" SHOES TO WEAR WITH THE BRIGHTEST COLERS AND THE SILVER SPARKLE SHOE LACES AND THE CONFETTI SOLES IN MULTI BRIGHT COLORS AGAINST THE WHITE. THEY ARE THE MOST STABLE AND COMFORTABLE SHOES. I LOVE THE GHOST 12. THESE ARE MY 3 RD PAIR AND MY CUSTOM ORTHOTICS FIT PERFECTLY INSIDE. HAPPY 20TH BIRTHDAY ZAPPOS. SO GLAD BROOKS MADE HTESE SPECIAL SHOES FOR YOU!!

I’m in love!! First time trying brooks shoes. I ordered the 8.5 and they were perfect. For reference I’m also 8.5 in Nike, and 8 in adidas. And honestly they seem to be the best shoes I have so far, in comfort. I may have to do a switch a roo on all my shoes! My walk was perfect!

My normal size was out so I went up a 1/2 size. I could not pass these up. I am a recreational runner but am a fan of brooks. These shoes are comfortable and so cute! Love the Anniversary edition!

I have Morton’s Neuroma. My foot is constantly in pain, but when I put these shoes on, the pain almost completely goes away. I have always worn Nikes, but have recently switched to Brooks. I did the shoe finder on Brooks’ website. I bought these and the Revel 3. The ghost 12 have a wider toe box and didn’t agitate my neuroma. So I kept the ghost 12 and sent the revel 3 back. The Ghost 12 are BY FAR my MOST COMFORTABLE shoes I own. I highly recommend them.

I was sad to see that the Ghost 10's are no longer made (I have had several pairs of them and loved them- they have been great for my plantar fasciitis) so I took a chance at ordered the Ghost 12 and hoped it would fit as well as the Ghost 10's. I am happy to report that they are PERFECT. The fit is great, no wear-in time needed...they fit like a glove right away! I love the festive design and I feel like I have a party on my feet every time I put them on. I did not like the packaging - the shipping box was way too big for one pair of shoes (waste!) and the outer "birthday special" box was covered in various "naughty" food icons letting me know that I need to walk x amount of time to burn off x amount of calories. Just send the shoes in the original box please!

I must admit, totally did not need these shoes. But, I loved the style and I had to have them! The only shoes I run in. Bad news, too cute not to wear out.

These shoes are so cute! I have received so many compliments about them. The fit is great. I normally wear an 8.5 in Brooks, and these are true to size. I bought these to run in, but decided to wear them to work instead. I am on my feet all day, and they are comfortable.

Love, love these shoes! I typically wear a size 8.5, but recommend size 9. They were too roomy, especially at the toe area. I exchanged for a size 8.5. Hopefully they will be perfect.

This shoe fits true to size. It’s my second pair of ghost 12s and they are awesome. I kept wearing holes in the toe of my other shoes, and these ones have held up for the 300 miles of running. The cupcake print is fun, I feel a little goofy, but they were on sale, so they will work for the next 300 miles.
