Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 14

Very disappointed. I made the switch to Brooks from another brand for this school year. I am a PE teacher so I need a good pair of shoes. I wear these 5 days a week indoors. The sole pieces are already starting to peel (front and back). The lace holes are starting to break. Lastly, the perimeter of the toe box doesn't stay pushed out. The box sucks in. Very disappointed and sadden

I have always bought shoes off the clearance rack and never spent over $70. So I decided to splurge in May 2021 with a proper shoe fitting to buy a new pair of sneakers. The guy who measured my feet said I did not need wide shoes even though I have worn wide shoes since my teenage years. I also went down a size apparently. The shoes fit well and were very comfortable. But six months later, the side of the right shoe and the rubber of the sole have separated. Maybe this is normal but for someone who has not used the shoes but to walk the dog and occasionally run with the dog, these shows did not last long at all.

I have been running in Ghosts since version 5. Still like them. Hate the laces. Ran my longer race (10 Mile) last week and had to stop three (3) times to retie the shoes. I am not an elite runner for first place medals....just don't like to stop the momentum to tie shoes. I know how to double knot but why do I have to overcome the flat lace conundrum. Bring back the puffy laces!
