Shoes are wide and look like snowshoes. Feel little support compared to old pair. Not at all happy with them.

Loved the shoes when I got them. My special orthotics worked perfectly in them, no slipping. I thought they felt extremely light and not well made, and I was correct. I wore them on a 3.5 week cruise and vacation. No running. Walked on treadmill, on the ship and around towns. The is a hole forming at the top of the at tip where the rubber piece meets the thin material. Disappointing. Returned.

There are never enough options for double E sizes. We are limited to just a few designs. I would have made several more purchases if more designs were double E size.

Shoe is too hard and runs small. I ordered 10.5 and it is 1/2 size smaller than previous models

The shoes I purchased didn't last 6 months and the shoes felt like I was walking barefoot. Cheap quality! Garbage!

I would pass on the Ghost 14 model because they are using a different type of rubber that makes crunching noises every time you take a step. They're loud even in pavement outside. I don't remember this being an issue with past models and I have been using the Ghost series since Ghost 6. Disappointed to say the least. If they don't change this in upcoming models, I'll have to look elsewhere unfortunately.

Only registering my complaint because I love Brooks otherwise, but I gave these shoes a chance over many weeks and am not satisfied. I loved the Ravenna for a long time, and was satisfied by the follow up the Launch GTS, and I wanted to try a Brooks shoe that I had read offered some arch support. With the Ghost I quickly learned that it is not comparable with those models: the heel tab / top of the back of the Ghost slants inward toward the Achilles tended, and on my foot it constantly rubs and puts pressure there. It got painful and rendered them unusable for me, even to walk in. I honestly never knew this could be a problem, so am relating it in case any runner needs to take that into consideration while shopping for a shoe!

I have been a fan of Brooks for many years, and that is the only thing I have bought for 15 years. this shoe did not seem to be of the high-quality that I have known from Brooks. The heel did not seem to have as much support.

Shoes are good. However, they were shipped from amazon. If I wanted to buy from a book-burning, marxist, free-speech censoring, anti-American company I would have ordered from them directly. I bought from Zappos specifically to avoid amazon. Next time I’ll make sure of who I’m supporting.

My new brooks ghost was not what I was expecting. The show seem too tight. And the model I choose doesn?t have the holes to make the shoe stretch so I sadly return it

I returned. Not like the previous versions. Ive had Brooks for a long time but these felt cheaper and ha way less cushion. The designs and colors are great but Ive found other brands that offer more support and cushion.

I really want to like these shoes because I love Brooks shoes. However these shoes have so much padding and it?s so soft on the bottom that it makes it very easy to roll your ankle. I can?t wear them and regret buying them.

Have worn 8 iterations of ghosts in the past. All at varying levels of comfort but all good enough. Now with this 14 the arch was pushed back toward the heel had to return them. Currently wearing glycerin 20. The glycerin 20 is potentially my new "go to".

I've been wearing the Brooks Ghosts and the Glycerins for a few years now. My most recent pair is the Glycerins, which I put a pretty decent amount of mileage on. I decided to try the Ghosts 14, which will be the last purchase I make of Brooks shoes until they do something with the newly designed tongue. With each step, it drives straight into my leg. I tried adjusting the shoe strings and even considered cutting off the top of it off, but ultimately decided to return them. The tongue is very rigid and very uncomfortable. From the looks of things, most of the new models have the same thing. Hopefully one day Brooks will go back to something more comfortable, but until then I'll be looking elsewhere.

I bought a pair of Trace shoes on your sale around 2 months ago and the soles are beginning to separate. Very dissapointing. Can I return them? I?m on my 5th pair of Ghosts and I?m very happy with them.

Worst pair of shoes I?ve ever owned, Brooks, what did you do? Go back to making them the way you made the Ghost 10, 11, 12 or 13?s. These feel like I?m walking on a brick. So hard and so uncomfortable.

I ordered a pair of Brooks Ghost 14 in a different color and they are by far my favorite shoes ever. So I ordered another pair in a different color. Same size and width, and within a day my plantar fasciitis was flaring up. I don't understand why the color of the shoe would matter.

Holes were worn in the back of these shoes after only about 3 months of wear. They are only worn for workouts 3 times a week for about an hour each time. I've been wearing Brooks Ghost for several years and never had this problem. I returned 2 pairs of the 14's for the same isssue.

I'm surprised I was asked to review these shoes as I returned them quickly. I was just as surprised about how uncomfortable they were. Just putting them on & walking from one room in my house to another was enough to know I wouldn't run in these. They felt like walking in dress shoes with minimal cushioning instead of high-end running shoes. Super stiff to the point of almost feeling hard-soled. I kept them another couple of days to try them on again in case I was the problem, but had the same experience the second time & had no interest putting them on ever again.
