Toe box was not as wide as other Ghost 13 shoe I ordered. Strange...

I'm returning these items because they are more narrow at the outside little toe joints after walking on them. I always walk inside first many times , then wear them outside next. The navy one felt ok until I walked outside 3 times for 1 mile each, then I got a corn on the outside of my right toe which I've never had before. The light gray one was too tight at the outside little toe joint to begin with, just in the house. I am deeply disappointed because I've loved the very first shoes i've gotten.

These seem like really well made shoes and they are likely going to be comfortable for many. I usually wear Asics nimbus, but wanted to try Brooks b/c of the wider toe box. They do have a wider toe box and also more height. But I noticed that on the right side of right foot, the shoe seemed slightly elevated along the side and it gave me pain on the bottom of my foot after wearing inside for just a half an hour. This could have been a one off thing with manufacturing inconsistency, not sure. Too bad! Was hoping these would work out!

I love my ghost 10, 11, 12, and my 13s feel bigger and my heel slips. I buy women?s 7.5 every time. Did you change the sizing? I have high arch and narrow heels and brooks ghost are the only shoes that I have found that work for me.

Much preferred the Ghost 12 for fit and comfort. These look sad and worn out and I didn't step out the door. Probably the color....navy...Prefer a bright color which gives off energy! Will try the Ghost 14. Do like the round laces and the Ghost 14 has flat ones. Wish you had a choice or could purchase round ones which were made by Brooks for Brooks sneakers. Thank you Zappos for quick service.

I?ve been wearing Brooks Ghost for the past few years. I?ve always been very satisfied with each pair. This pair however not as much. I had bought a pair of Ghost 13 a few months ago and was really impressed with the comfort of the sole. This 2nd pair of 13 was not even close to being as comfortable. I feel that a different type of foam was used in the sole. The pair is wearable but I will not wear them as much. That is the reason for 3 stars.

This purchase was for my wife to replace a pair of Ghost 12's that we could no longer find. Unfortunately, she didn't feel the 13's were the same fit or comfort as the 12's and returned the 13's the same day she received them. What's most unfortunate is that the 12's are outdated and virtually impossible to find now.

This is my second time with this version of Ghost's and I have the same complaint this time. After just a few short weeks of having these shoes the back has worn out and gotten holes. I bought this pair to replace another pair of Ghost 13 and was disappointed to find the same issue. I am a long time Brooks Ghost runner but am hesitant to recommend these shoes to anyone. I would consider the Ghost 12 which seemed much more durable in the heel area.

I had to size up one full size for the toebox not to squash down my toes. That’s fine for walking but for aerobics it doesn’t work and my feet and ankles and knees hurt when I’m done. if I’m still in my return window I’m returning definitely going back to my trusty ASICS.

I ordered the black but they're more of a dark charcoal, very nice unless you're looking for true black. The soft upper mesh is light and very comfortable. The lower toe box across the ball of my foot is wide and good for bunions but the shoes I received are way more pointed than the photo and cramp my toes. I also prefer more cushioning under the metatarsal area. These are going back.

I'm a big fan of Brooks shoes, but these were a disappointment. I did not feel much cushioning and they felt stiff even after several days trying to "break them in". On a positive note, they're nice looking.

This is my third pair of Ghosts. Not impressed with the 13's. They are not as comfortable as the 2 previous versions. Not Zappos fault. I will be writing to Brooks as well.

Sorry Brooks. I don't love these. I've bought and worn only Brooks for years now. Last 3 pairs were pure flow but they didn't have them available in ny size so I bought these instead based on the positive reviews. The sizing seems to be different and the material is weird and my feet start to feel tired if I wear them for too long. I've taken to wearing my old pure flows with holes in them instead because they feel better. Bummed.

The Ghost 13 seems less substantial and not as supportive as the 11. I wouldn't buy these again.

Shoe fit well, just didn't like color (ombre). Re-ordered in black / blackened pearl. Always outstanding service from Zappos!

These are my fourth pair of Brook's Ghosts. Disappointing. My Ghost 13s have lost their oomph rather quickly. I'm glad I kept the previous pair, Ghost 12s, which while worn further and longer are in much better shape. Those are still supportive. Also, Am I the only person on the planet who liked the grey plaid version? Seriously- loved them.

The pink color around the sole was too distinctive - I had hoped it was more of a beige color - there is very little arch support in this style - when you are walking up and down basic inclines on a neighborhood walk - there is not enough arch support to secure your foot - the fabric that is the top of the shoe is very giving and that is comfortable overall but again very little support when actually walking

With this version of the Ghost, the ride is as awesome as ever. But Brooks quality and quality control isn't what it used to be. I'm somewhere about 2/3rds of what the useful lifespan of the shoe should be and the foam is disintegrating around both heels.

I am not sure what, if anything has changed. However, at the end of a 10 hour shift, they do not feel as comfortable as my previous pair.

I love the color, I love the style , But it does not feel good on my heel area. I have been wearing them around the house a few hours a day for a week and I just can’t handle the stiffness of the heel. sizewise, I did have to go up a full size from what I normally wear in a Nike

Of all shoes I?ve bought, these are the most comfortable, especially first day wear for eight hours. But they are narrow and tight. I was always forced to get guys sizes because the width was wider than women?s but I like that these actually form to your feet.
