Very nice look and comfortable fit, but seem to break down more rapidly than other shoes I have used in the past.

Running in Ghost since 12s. Although still like the 14s, it seems as if the toe box is more narrow than the 13s. Hopefully the 15s are more like the early Ghost models.

Unfortunately, I'll be returning the Ghost 14 model. The fit was fine, but I found it wasn't as cushioned as the Ghost 13s I'd been wearing. I don't know if this was because Brooks changed the model, or perhaps because I got them on sale from Brooks and someone had returned them and the cushioning was compressed? That said, Brooks shoes tend to fit my feet well, and I like the quality and the company, so I'll probably try to find another Brooks model or try the Ghost 15.

The shoes themselves have been ok so far. My only complaint is the shoe laces are too short. I barely have enough to tie them. So, I've ordered some different laces.

I have bought probably 15 different Brooks running shoes over the years and most often of late is the Ghost series going back to single digits...Ghost 8 or maybe even earlier. As is the case with shoe companies they change something every year, sometimes for the good and sometimes not. These are the worst of the bunch.
First impression is the shoe string. I know, it's just a shoe string that can be swapped with a hundred others but this thing was flimsy and thin and not made for a good solid knot. If they cheap out there, what else did they cheap out on I wondered. The answer was the cardboard like tongue that poked into the spot between foot and leg, you know, the front of the ankle. Not comforturable and it is so stiff I doubt it will soften up over time. So back these things go and hats off to Zappos for the easy return so there is no hassle.
Maybe this is why they were on such a steep discount. Still not worth it though and I wouldn't wear them even if they were free. To say I am bummed is an understatement. I loved Brooks but something changed, and IMO not in a good way.

Love the brooks ghosts. I have been wearing them since I started running 3 years ago and they are my go to. I have tried other brands but they are just not as good.

Great shoe. I didn't know what I was missing buying other shoes like Nike and Adidas and using them to run. These feel like I'm running on a cloud. Love them and will definitely be purchasing them again when these wear out.

The ghost is a casual, comfortable shoe, and I have complicated feet.

I ordered the narrow this time instead of the usual medium to see if the shoe would fit my narrow feet better and I don't feel the fit has improved by doing that which is a little disappointing. The shoe is comfortable and the sizing is spot on.

Shoes are comfortable and true to size. The issue I have with them is there is a squeak coming from inside the shoe all the time. Very annoying.

I've started to lean more towards the New Balance 1080v12 because of the issue in my left foot. The new balance are a softer shoe that gives a fantastic fit. I love both but the Brooks are harder on the bottom causing me to have some nerve pain. Overall I think the ghost is a great shoe. I am sure others will enjoy them.
I'd also recommend:

They fit true to size. I recently had foot surgery and needed the EE width. Very comfortable and look great too. Highly recommend

I was fitted for these shoes by the Good Feet store to help support my back knee. When I say a comfortable shoe I mean this is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I recommend these shoes to everyone.

It?s important I start with the fact that I don?t run with these. I work retail and needed something comfortable to stand in all day. These do the job well. Not perfect, but well. Once I get from behind my register and start walking around the store, they feel even better. Honestly, walking helps my knees, back and legs feel less sore when I?ve been standing in one place for a long time. These shoes are great. And they?re the same price as a lot of other decent shoes that are of more popular brand names. Forget the more we?ll known brand names, get these, be happier. Also, I?ve had issues with other brands not fitting as well at my typical size cuz I?m getting older and my feet are a little more swollen. These fit snug as a bug.
