Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 13

Order down 1/2 size! I am normally a 9.5 but ordered in a 9 and fit perfectly. These have a roomier tie box than most other types of running shoes. Moderate at best arch support. I returned them only because I could tell that they had been worn quite a bit upon my receiving them. They had a worn look and a fragrant, perfume like smell to them.

Great cushioning but seem wider than previous version. I love the ghost for its great cushioning and will continue to consider these my go to athletic shoes. The unusual thing about the 13s is that I need to snug the laces tighter than I do with my ghost 12s to get a secure fit. I am not sure if this is because the fabric upper has more give or if the shoe is slightly wider. It is still very comfortable and I use these for running and cardio cross training.

Unfortunately there was a defect on these shoes and the material by the right toe kept popping in and out after the first time I wore them. I am returning.

I returned my Ghost shoes as the arch was a little too high for me. I already have a high arch but this just didn't work for me. They were very pretty and fit true to size except for the arch.

They felt good on for awhile but after a while I realized I was beginning to feel pain where the toes attach to the foot. On top of the foot. I decided to exchange for another pair. May be just my foot. Don't know. I have worn the Brooks shoes for many years but feet do change as we age too.

I have been a Brooks Ghost fan for the last 5 years. As recommended, I always order a half size bigger and find this works well. Today I tried my new Ghost 13. I wore them for 30 min on a treadmill. They are lighter and feel comfortable right away, there was no feeling that the shoe was too tight. However within 20 min on the treadmill, I developed a blister on my heel. In comparing the construction to my Ghost 12, the material for the heel section in the 13 is not smooth, like it is in the 12. I am not sure if this is what caused a blister to form so quickly. Still deciding if I should return them or not. I agree with the other comments on color choices, but the grey /fair aqua/black is not bad looking.

Really cute shoes! I’m not a runner; I bought these for everyday wear. They are just ok for comfort. I have high arches and I have to use a shoehorn to get on and sometimes the toe box feels cramped. But overall I do like them!

I wore my Ghost 12 out and was looking for a replacement but only found the 13. They were just as comfortable as the 12 and provided the support I needed for my tendency to pronate. Had a lot of rain a couple of weeks back and ran over some low lying flooded roads..The fabric mesh got wet and my socks were alittle wet so they are not waterproof. Also got some mud stains that appeared to have dried into the fabric..leaving large discolored shapes but washing them off with soapy water, one cant tell that even happened. Really satisfied with the purchase. .

The size 10 was a little big. I ordered a narrow 2A size, but it still felt a little wide to me, it may have been that I needed a 9 1/2 or 9 vs a size 10. I felt that for me there was not enough arch support. I will add that they are comfortable though for everyday wear, just not for running. The look of the shoe was good, and honestly, if I find the right shoe, it doesn't matter to me how it looks. I did return these shoes.

This Brooks shoe is amazing and well made, and I loved the colors and styling. They are just a little too padded in the insole, and not enough in the heel? Or the heel may be cut too low for my foot. But I have never had a problem with an uncomfortable heel counter in any shoe, so I am very puzzled. Sad, because the shoe feels comfortable and supportive, just feeling a strange rub at the back of the heel that I don't think will go away with wearing. Sending them back. I like Brooks shoes, but they don't seem made for my foot for some reason. Wish they made a style for me!
