Come on Brooks, I expect more from you! I loved running in the Ghost 9 and Ghost 11. They were both great out of the box. These Ghost 13 are very uncomfortable. I wear a 15EE. These Ghost 13 are a 1/2 size smaller than previous versions and not as wide. They seem shallower in the body, causing your foot to sit higher in the shoe. This causes no support. If you have even an ounce of supination STAY CLEAR of these. After one 4 mile run, my ankles are killing me. Because they run small and narrow there is no support where there needs to be. Mid arch is completely absent and there is a big ball of padding under the knuckle of your big toe, causing a slight supination in form. If you liked the previous Ghosts, you will not like these!

I have train with Ghost for year, I buy 4 pair per year since 2018, but I don't link Ghost 13. It has something in the back that make uncomfortable the back high part of the ankle.

Big fan of Ghost 11. Purchased Ghost 13 assuming that not much would change. Not sure what happened but the general shape of the show has changed. My feet are sore after using the new 13's. Also the width has changed decreased - my new 4E is far more narrow than my old 4E.

I have had these shoes for a little over 1 month and they seem to be broke down already. I usually get 4-6 months out of the Brook shoes but not this time.

Very disappointed as I have 3 ghost 12 sneakers as they worked very well. The 13 forces me to lean forward when walking or running. Hoping this is corrected in 14.

I have the Ghost 12 and like them so I decided to try the Ghost 13. Overall the Ghost 13 fit much tighter than the 12's so I returned them.

The Ghost 13 shoes were too narrow for my feet. I wear a 11 1/2 4E (Extra Wide).

The shoes are not as stable as I was led to believe. I ordered the shoes back on 8/1/2020 as of 09/19/2020, my ghost 13 bottom has worn pretty quickly for a month of running.

Bought these for my husband, they were his normal size. Received them and they were too short and too narrow. We sent them back. Waiting for exchange. Hopefully!!!

I lost the Ghost line and have bought many of them to day (I want to say 6-7). Lately I have loved some of the new color patterns that have come out, but am very disappointed that the wide 2E widths are only available in a select few of the patterns. Can more be made available in 10.5, 2E widths?

I've been buying the men's Ghost shoes since the ghost 9 came out. I ordered a pair of the ghost 13 and for the first time I had to return a pair due to a design change. The tongue of the shoe Has been elongated and is different. The tongue won't stay in place and wants to walk to the side which makes it uncomfortable for me. I had to readjust the tongue several times a day. Otherwise the shoe is comfortable but I just can't overcome the design change of the tongue. Due to this change I am rating low. I hope Brooks will realize this was a mistake or I will once again have to find another shoe I like or will have to cut the tongue to fix the problem.

I have been a Brookes fan for years and remain one. Have the Ghost 11 and love them. Although, recently purchased the Ghost 13 and have been experiencing foot pain from what feels like a cushioned bar just in front of the ball of my foot where my toes rest. Unfortunately, I will have to return them and look for a different style.

I love that ghost, but in the redesign this show doesn?t feel neutral. I should have returned it when I had the chance.

I know I may be an outlier here but the Ghost 13 just did not work for me. I have run successfully in previous iterations of the Ghost so I was excited to try the 13; especially given the many great reviews. Unfortunately, it just did not work for me. I didn't get that smooth feeling that many describe. I found the Ghost 13 a bit clunky and lifeless. I did runs of 5 easy, 8 at marathon pace and one 6 mile tempo effort and none felt good. Thanks to Brooks for its great customer service though as I was easily able to return them.

The Ghost versions have been my go-to shoe; however, this 13 version appears to come up a little higher on achilles and wearing blisters which the other versions have not done and I walk about 30 miles per week in these shoes. Ordered me Brooks Ghost 12 version to replace these.

It's a good shoe, just not for me.
Im currently about 45 miles in about 8 days.
It's not that responsive, which can be good for some.
It's good for walking and standing, and the sometime jog but not for a long run 5+mi.
The foam at the tounge is Different from the other shoe, so it could be a manufactured problem.

Bought these Ghost 13s a few weeks ago to replace my Ghost 11s. They are high quality shoes, but something is off with the fit now. Felt good when I bought, but after a couple weeks (after putting them through the paces) they rub the tops of my toes. Ghost 11 fit PERFECTLY and lasted about 1.5 years. Going to have to return these :/

Not a huge fan to be honest. Loved the 12 as my first pair of brooks and was excited to order the 13s but sadly disappointed, really wanted to love them. Not offering the same support the 12s did feel like they're poorly made.
