These fit small and narrow. I wear a 9.5 EE in most shoes and these felt like a 9E. They are also very shallow top to bottom.

Very nice looking shoe I wear for business casual outfits. Doesn't have the full comfort as the Addiction 14.

Does not feel as padded nor does it have the glove like fit of previous models.

This is my 3rd pair of ghost 13 and my least favorite of the the series. The higher heal is irritating and the inside of the heal wears out with holes very fast. This was never an issue with previous models.

I have been running in Brooks Ghost for years and always loved them. Just got a new pair recently and after putting about 120 miles on them, I'm not that happy with them. My feet ache after every run and they never have before. Kept hoping they would get broken in and be better, but I don't think they are going to. I have reached out to Brooks to see what they have to say about it.

Ghost 12 are still your best shoe for me. I always order a half size bigger than I wear and with these I think I could of ordered my size, they are running a little larger than 12's and the 12's are FAR more comfortable with the cushion in the heal and all around better. I still own my worn put 12's and I'll put them on to clean the house in and they are still better comfort than my new 13's Would I buy another pair of 13's... yes, but if you offered the 12's again.. I'd stock up and buy many pairs of 12's over the 13's ! Best part about Brooks is they out last and other kind of shoes I owned. A Huge plus over any shoe company !

Not near as happy with a ghost 13 as I was the ghost 12. It seems to be quite a bit narrower across the toes and does not fit my foot the same as the 12.

Worst Ghost ever. The sole feels very hard, not cushioned at all. Also feels tight across the instep. As a result I only wear them around the house, and even on carpet they make my feet hurt.

I did not like these. They run small compared to my other Brooks shoes (Adrelaine 20), and just seemed a lot stiffer out of the box.

Lighter but feel like Brooks cheaper models to me where the ghost 12 feels more refined and comfortable. Honestly the 13s feel like a anthem quite a bit . I'll wait to see what the 14s are like or try another model next purchase . I give all my other brooks much higher ratings then these , first pair I know I won't wear

Ghost 13 4E. Plenty wide. Great comfort and support. Quick shipping ( free Express ). Only complaint- 4E limited colors. The light color gets dirty very easily- but does clean up just as easy. Love to see in a darker shade grey or blue. I would buy again in a darker color ( but not black). TJ

we got the white and after a few days they got strange oval stains on the top. these did not come from the outside. they are perfectly shaped and I tried washing them with no luck. not sure why this happened but they don't look like they should. my husband has been wearing this style and likes them a lot. he has only had dark colored ones before but wanted something lighter for summer.

Overall the shoes are well made and provide great support without requiring to much adjustment. This said, the sizing is way small and narrow (I don’t have very wide feet). Went 1/2 up, helped a bit but still small. Full size up, more room but too much. So I can see the appeal if the shoe but you better make sure it fits your feet. The line between comfortable and painful is way to slim here.
Also, durability is questionable, I run 5 to 10 miles a day ( mix between treadmill and road) after 2 weeks, the sole already shows quite a bit of wear.

I have had 2 pair of ghost 10. Great shoe. 1 pair ghost 11. Great shoe. Most recent ghost 13. Very disappointed. The heel back is coming apart and shoe is not wearable.

Didn't fit as well as the Ghost 11 and 12. Seems narrow. Didn't love the color.

This is my 6th version of the Brooks Ghost running shoe. I have loved most of the other versions which fit my wide front foot, narrow heal, and high arch. These are very wide in the front and do not provide the stability I have come to know. They seem like a BIG wide sock - cushy for sure, but little support. I liked them at first until I tried to run. I bought my normal size in the Ghost 5.5.

I had the Glycerin 17. They were very cushy. I was going to purchase another 17, but it was not available.
The only other color style close was the ghost 13.
The Ghost 13 is stiff and not cushy.
The 17 is no longer available, at least I could not find them. I am disappointed, but no other option so far.

The rigid plastic piece on the heels leads to significant running on heel and blisters.

I’ve been running in the Ghost for the past 6-7 years and this was probably the 5th pair I’ve owned. For whatever reason this version felt different and less comfortable. I’m returning them and going with a different shoe. It could be a fluke and they have always been solid in the past.
