Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 14

I'm not as amazed with these shoes as everyone told me I would be. I don't dislike them too much, but they really aren't better than just about any other shoe I've used in the past few years. I was hoping for a pair of shoes that would allow me to work an 8 1/2 hour shift without my feet being sore afterwards, but I'm not sure that such a shoe exists. I have tried many, and they all leave me with different kinds of pain. These in particular focused the pain on the area just proximal to the big toe, quite distinctly, whilst my heels, arches, and toes felt mostly fine.

A firm and stable feel. Not a cushioned as other models if the runner is need of extra cushion.

Been a Brooks Ghost fan for many years. Always got 400+ miles on them. This iteration was totally shot at 250 miles. Seems like they have cut some corners.

Feels alright but not enough padding for my liking.

They fit nice, but I don't think the insole is up to par. My ghost 11's had a better insole.

I wore Ghost 13 for years and am extremely happy with my 13. This is the first time I got 14 and they feel also comfortable but not as much. Also, I got blisters near my arches for both feet in the first week.

Sadly after wearing Ghosts for years and loving them, I had to return the Ghost 14?s and will be looking for a new brand from now on. That?s because the shoe is now significantly narrower in the toe box. I finally went through the last of my Ghost 12?s so was happily looking forward to the 14?s, to no avail. I?m female but I have very square wide feet with ultra high arches so I always wear a men?s 4E in an athletic shoe. I discovered Brooks because ASICS did the same thing about 5 years ago. Now I?m on the hunt for a new brand. Besides being much narrower they also changed the volume and we?re too shallow to work with my orthotics in them. The apparent trend towards more streamlined shoes doesn?t recognize the wide variety of feet out there. Very disappointed.

I'm still getting used to these. My previous shoes where brooks as well. I like them but verdict is still out for me. They fit well.

Love my brooks but these were not wide enough. I need a 4x.

Tight. In both length and width. Have I?ve owned many pairs of Adrenaline, which fit perfectly. These shoes do not fit the same.

Sole Wears out way too fast

Ordered wide size and it was way to small for my feet to fit into compared to other models I purchased. Check my recent history ordered out. Glycerin GTS are significantly better. Will not order ghost going toward regardless of discounted price. I have purchased it the past few months approximately 1000.00 in shoes from brooks. Overall happy but HOKA probably is my next purchase.

The shoes overall are good. There are quite a few things we didn't like about this pair. The color is very bright which is what I bought them for was my son, and they were listed under the search when we looked for plantar faschitis. He has to wear the cadence inserts and so we thought these would be good. I ordered a size 9.5 because that's what the website said to order based off another pair of shoes we put into the automated shoes size finder. He normally wears an 8.5 or 9 in mens. They are a little big on him and he can't wear the insole with the shoe because he said it's too tight. So he wears them without insoles on most days which totally defeats the purpose of me buying the shoes. We may try another pair of brooks down the road, but for the money we paid I don't want to risk this happening again. We will go to a retailer and be fitted before ordering online.

Not very comfortable for long runs. Felt hard.

The insole in the shoe is quite thin. If you replace it with an orthotic, most orthotics will be much thicker. It throws off the fit of the shoe. I tried several sizes, but the length/width isn?t the issue. It?s the height. You?re ankle will stick too far out of the shoe.

I have medium arches and these lack support. Had to buy insoles immediately.

Love Brookes shoes and have always stuck with the Ghost model. Unfortunately, this time they ran small and I had to return them. I won?t give up.

My normal is 11.5 Asics. I ordered a size 12. A bit snug. Went on a 15-mile road-based hike a couple of weeks after we got it. The right toenail turned blue. Not pleased with that.

I walk 6 miles a day in these shoes on city sidewalks. I have been a user of these shoes for a long time. The fit and comfort has always been great. The soles of the shoe are another matter. While they have improved to be more durable, I am still buying 5-6 pairs of shoe a year. I would like that to be 3-4 pairs a year. One last thing, the color selection for anyone with width above 'normal' is limited to 3-4 kinds of plain designs for the shoes. Could you offer more colors and designs for those of us with wider feet?

This model seems a little more narrow than previous models that I?ve had. I like the design but it bothers my arch more than previous designs. Good shoe to be on my feet all day but by the end of the day they are too snug for my liking

I wear a size 15. The shoelaces that came with the shoe are too short! In order to lace it up all the way I had to redo the lace not using the bottom eyelets. Even so because the top of the shoe is rather stiff I have a hard time putting the shoe on and and taking it off.
