In 1975, the only women's athletic shoes offering a narrow or AA width was New Balance. So, for all these decades, I bought various styles within this iconic brand. I was very happy. However, in 2020, this year, just now, I decided to take a chance, and try some other brand. Well, the SECOND I slipped on these Brooks Ghost 13 shoes, I instantly started to sing, I am not kidding: "I'm walking on sunshine, and don't it feel good!" I instantly had a smile on my face, and felt happy!!! These shoes are SO lightweight, so cushiony, so super comfortable! The N.B. I used to wear for many years are all leather......so heavy. So, all I can say is: buy these shoes, even though, and here is the minor downside: they are a half-size longer than listed, and the toe-box is gigantic so that you might have clown feet, as I do now. However, that being said, my custom-made orthotics fit inside perfectly, and even without them, these shoes are super comfy, and I felt like I was literally walking on air!! I would buy them again, but a half-size smaller for sure. SO comfortable, so light-weight. Worth their high price.

I just left an excellent review for this sneaker, but I forgot to mention the Black/Pearl/Hushed Violet is not really a true black - it is a deep gray. I returned it, and ordered the Black/Blackened Pear/White - which I'm hoping is a true black.

I love these sneakers!! I wear an orthotic for my very flat feet, I can remove the insert and the orthotic fits perfectly. I buy a 10 Wide, and the toe box is so nice and roomy, the fabric is soft, and the design is cute.
I only wish they made more fun colors in the Wide, like bright blue, pink, orange, etc.

Had to return these after a week. The back kept giving me blisters, too roomy in the toe box. My ankles and shins started having pain.

I measured the Wide width of Ghost 13 and my old Standard width Ghost 11s and the Ghost Standard width 11s are Wider. Ghost 11 standard width is 3" and the new Ghost 13 width is 2 1/2".

None that I know of for plantar fasciitis...all the brands cut corners. Orthotic brands are too hard

I love my ghosts they are so comfortable and fit amazing . I?m thinking about ordering another just to have when these wear out . One thing I wish Brooks would do is make women?s running shoes in better colors . Not all women like pink and purple or light blue . Brooks make some reds, greens , oranges please !!!! Or teal I love teal .

I have been wearing Ghost for several years.....the Ghost 12 is so tight. I always wear 7.5 but someone must have cut these incorrectly.....very disappointed.

I have trouble with my right knee, foot and hamstring! Once I put them on, I keep them on until I go to bed! My right leg still bothers me but not like before wearing the Ghost 13. Wow, I cannot get over how much better I feel! My sister introduced me to the Ghost 12 and I ended up getting two pair of Ghost 13. I am not a runner. I am a retired 71 yr. old! Never too late to find a product that improve your quality of life! Thank You!

Brooks finally did it!! They have recreated the Ghost 10. I have been waiting years for this and it has finally happened. I think they might even better. I have been able to wear them right out of the box with minimal foot pain. Dont even need my inserts. They are light and cushion like a cloud. Toe box is wider so my toes dont feel cramped. Im going to buy another pair. The colors are lacking but i dont care i LOVE these shoes

I have never been able to wear the Ghost style since Ghost 11. Ghost 12 and 13 are so narrow and tight I ordered Ghost 13 in wide....and I do not have wide feet. The width is better, but the shoe is longer so I have to lace up to the very last holes to keep them on my heels and the laces are then way too short. The toe box in the wide is also larger and the sneaker is also longer. Why do you keep changing the Ghost? I still wear my two old pairs of Ghost 11 with holes in the toes, which wear out so quickly due to the cheap, thin fabric. I have plantar fasciitis and all the other brands sneakers I used to wear are also too narrow from cutting corners, just like Brooks.

The shoes fit true to size and width. They provide excellent support and are great for running or everyday wear. I highly recommend them.

I like that even though it is mesh, the holes are spaced apart - hopefully that will keep my socks dryer if it is raining! I have two pair for work, my older pair I wear Tuesday and Thursday and my newer pair on Monday, Wednesday and Friday!

I love this shoe. The cushion is optimal without being too pillow-y, very comfortable, and good for reasonable speed. Always reliable!

I first ordered 1/2 a size larger than I wear in Asics based on reviews. However, they were just too roomy so I ordered my regular size and they are perfect!!!!

I have worn Asics for years and still like them but the Brooks shoes are unbelievably comfy.
