Over my 31.000+ miles of running I've worn a 9.5 4E. However, in recent years, it seems shoes have been getting smaller in the toe box, requiring a size up to 10. Not so the Ghost 13. I am an older runner (71) with a neutral gait, and wide foot; and, in my opinion, the Ghost 13 provides optimal cushion, lateral guidance, and a reasonable amount of responsiveness for a cushion shoe. It's my go-to shoe at this point.

Brooks fan. Moved up to the 14 which has good improvements and is the one I would recommend if you need more cushioning. They make my feet much happier. This is the only cut that can accommodate my extra wide/round forefoot (4E). I wish it had the cushioning of the Glycerin (which doesn't come in my size and lacks the wider toe box). The Ghost 13 and 14 have a 12mm drop. My Hoka Bondi 7 (4mm drop) is my go-to lately – nice rounded toe box. It's a heftier sneaker but it keeps my feet super happy all day. Both accommodate my orthotic.

LOVE Women's Brooks, but I ordered these, I believe they are men's, because the color is not offered in Women's. If they would just offer different colors, in particular all White, and this Gray/White, obviously you would get a better fit ordering Women's. I have other Women's Brooks, and they are fabulous. Literally saved my feet and I wear them all the time. ALL the time.

These are the best running shoes I've ever worn. I wear them walking for miles, working out on elliptical and bought a 2nd pair: one for inside workouts and one for outdoors. I am a woman who usually wears a size 11 womens. Women's running shoes have been problematic for me in that the toe box is just a hair crowded even in Brooks. These give my toes space without slippage. They are cushiony and cloud like but supportive. They fit like a glove in a good way for shoes.
Had a recent heel problem that was not resolving fast enough. Wearing my Oboz hiking boots were not helping the process. As soon as I put these on walking was improved and pain as well. The colors are also better in Men's. So glad I stumbled upon this alternative.

Great shoes for someone who goes to the gym 5x/week. Choose these after committing never to buy anything from Nike again!.....they are Corporate hypocrites! "....a brand of China and for China!" What a crock!

I?m a driver for a major parcel delivery company, and I need something that I can be comfortable in, while still maintaining a healthy stop per hour count( i.e., running my little tail off!) and able to take a beating as well throughout the workday. I totally recommend these shoes for just such a task. Comfortable, great arch support, and built with almost workboot-like toughness. I know this isn?t exactly the intended use, but if it can handle 150+ stops a day, 6 days a week and still keep me running at top speed, then I reckon these are some of the best running shoes on the planet. 5 star, I?m a fan and a loyal customer.

Brooks always run small, but both my wife and I wear a full size up for best fit. We always buy Brooks and they always fit perfectly!

This is probably the 6th pair of Ghost that I have bought and also the second pair of 13's. Very comfortable and suit my feet perfectly.

I really liked the Ghost 13, I tried it to compare with the 14 as many have suggested the 13 was better. Honestly I felt the 14 was a better shoe for me. They actually felt very similar, the shoe series seems very consistent. The toe box may have been a tad bit roomier on the 13 but overall the 14 felt more comfortable for me. I?m on my feet 10+ hours a day, I walk 13-20 miles a day. I?m a retail manager and work on concrete floors all day and these shoes had lots of cushion and were definitely supportive enough for concrete floors. I rotate out the Ghost, Adrenaline GTS, and Kayano shoes and I have literally no foot or knee pain anymore. I definitely prefer the Brooks vs the competitor just the others are a tad more supportive for when I need them. It may be absurd to have so many shoes for working, but I carry two pair with me and switch if I need to allowing the others to rest. If you?re in my position and are not a runner, these shoes are very capable for walking and for being on your feet on very hard floors for long periods of times. As a non runner, these shoes are ridiculously lightweight (coming from everyday shoes). I wish there were more reviews that mentioned that, so hopefully I can help someone else with it. Also the rocking forward walking motion really helps for even the use I have. Thanks Brooks for brilliant shoes! They are lifesavers! Shoe size is a 13 2E, the review option only allows me to choose up to 12.5.

I wear orthotics and these shoes were wide enough to accommodate them. Brooks Ghost 13 ( + orthotics) kept my ankle from turning inward as it is prone to do. I was able to run and walk in these shoes in all manner of weather conditions for over a year. I will buy the next generation Ghost running shoes from Brooks.

Brooks running shoes may not be stylish, but they are by far, the best on the market. My husband swears by them for a perfect fit and good run!

I'm not very versed on running shows and at my age comfort not style is my aim. I bought these at the same to as another brand and found them to be real comfortable both at home and on the street and so far my feet stay comfortable and the shoes have great style. I've only had them a couple of weeks and have yet to add in a separate orthotic foot bed so I feel comfortable in giving them the long term workout.
