Initially, I loved this shoe! Loved the colors, how lightweight they were and the comfort. Then, the left shoe toe box started creasing and it felt like air popping under foot too - made walking in them uncomfortable. I am disappointed!

As a nurse, I’m on my feet all day. These shoes are the best for arch support and comfort. My legs and feet are not aching at the end of my shift. I’ve also received so many compliments on them from co-workers.

Not as comfortable as the ghost 12. Feels more stiff and more narrow than the previous version. Why?d you change it?!

I need a sneaker with a roomy toe box -- this particular model was not it! I've had luck with this brand before but this model was not comfortable at all.

I have been wearing another brand of shoe with orthotics for 5 years pretty successfully, and required an 8.5 rather than my usual 8, in order to fit the orthotics in and not remove the shoe's insole. Since the general instructions for this shoe suggested ordering a half size up if you were unsure or between sizes, I went with the 8.5 in the ghost. Very comfortable, but my foot was sloshing around. I wore them for several days and thought they probably were not quite right for me. But comfortable. Issues I had been having for weeks with aching and pain on the top of my instep disappeared in one day. So I ordered the size 8, same shoe, and even though I have not worn an 8 for five years, it was perfect. I will reluctantly return the 8.5 with the running guarantee but I will order a second pair of size 8.

I am a long time ghost user. I think this is my 10th year replacing these, I order the new version every year.
i hate to say it, but the 13 is awful. The heal box is so narrow I have bruises on my foot from it pressing so hard. Brooks I have no idea what happened but please go back!

LOVED my Brooks Levitate 2 but have been unable to find a suitable replacement shoe. Thought the Ghost 13 might work but the comfort level is not nearly as good. The sole feels stiff, and the shoe hits the ground hard. Miss the cushioning and shock absorbing features of Levitate 2. Also found the heel area to be stiff vs. the sock style top of the Levitate 2 shoe. There are being returned. Still trying to find the right shoe. Please stick with what works for your customers, and don't feel compelled to "redesign". It seems the redesign/ new models are inferior.

I have large feet, and generally have to buy a men?s running shoe to get a good fit, and for the arch support to feel comfortable. I was very surprised to find these felt amazing from the start! No break in period needed either. Not one single blister. You have converted a die hard Nike wearer!

Love these shoes! The bottoms of my feet often ache before, during and after but the spring board technology of these shoes are fantastic. Has helped tremendously.

I don't usually leave reviews, but this update is fantastic! Definitely a smooth ride. Love the thinner upper and the new shape of the sneaker's tongue (it alleviates the pressure that had caused a cyst to form on the front of my ankle). Now if we could just get the flat laces back, this shoes would be perfect!

I love these running shoes. While I am not a runner, I use them for walking several miles a week and also wear them at the gym for cardio classes. They make my feet feel great! I was having problems with a general aching of the bottom of my feet. These shoes have helped relieve that tremendously.
