Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 14

I loved these shoes, but they just didn't work well for me. Normally I wear a 10. I got both the 10 WIDE and the 10.5 WIDE. I was somewhere in between in sizes. The 10 were a little too small, the 10.5 was way too big. I think if the 10 had been just a little wider or longer in the toe box they might have worked for me. Sad to return them.

I ordered a women’s 8.5 N (my normal size) and had plenty of toe room. I was very happy to find an athletic shoe that came in narrow! I must say that I cannot tell the difference between these and medium width. However, by tightening up the laces there is no slipping. The toe box is just a tad wider than it needs to be but not a problem for me. The overall fit is very comfortable. It has thick padding on the tongue and heel area. The cushioning is very good. I supernate (wear out my heels on the outside) and read that these are a good shoe for people who do this. I also have a super high arch. I usually replace the interior with the runpro high arch or my custom support. The bottom base of the shoe is wide and seems like it will provide the stability I need. We haven’t experienced enough warm weather yet to see if me feet stay cool, but my other Brooks have always had good airflow. I will update this after more wear but I like them out of the box. I got peacoat/Yucca Navy color. Really like it and I feel like they make my feet look smaller. Yay!

I really liked the look of the shoe but it was a little tight in the toe box for me. I do have to accommodate a bunion, otherwise I would have kept it. Sadly I had to return it.

I ordered a wide and am glad I did. This wide seems a little narrower than previous Ghosts and I’m good with that. Comfy shoe.

These shoes fit my feet, but were a bit hard and stiff for me. My doctor recommended running shoes for arthritis and other foot issues but I need softer cushioning. Also, the padding in back of heel was too thick, and tongue was stiff and pushed against the front of my foot. These shoes seem very well made and size was good, but probably best for actual runners.

I think these would be fine for people who don't need a lot of cushion, but I do, so I went with the Glycerin.

The narrow width fits my daughter well, but she is tough on her shoes and the outer mesh tears easily.

I’m a big fan of Brooks. This is my 5th pair of Brooks and 2nd pair of Ghosts. The 1st was the Ghost 11. I ordered the same size and width as always but the toe box in this Ghost 14 is noticeably roomier—although not to the point where I need to size down. I primarily use these on walks and they have not disappointed. They fit my orthotics perfectly, provide plenty of cushion, and don’t aggravate my foot issues. I almost returned these because I really didn’t like the look. They didn’t have enough style right out of the box due to the boring dark grey shoelaces. Easy fix! I bought rose gold laces to match the Brooks trim and now the look is perfect for me! Style and function ??

A decent pair of shoes. I typically wear a wide but these were even more so even with a heavy sock. Sorry to have to return and continue to search for a better fitting shoe. Brooks have been a favorite of mine in the past.

Really liked the shoe but had to return it because the toe box was too narrow.

I've worn Brooks Ghost for several years. The Ghost 14 feels narrow when compared to the 13. It hasn't gotten better after a week of daily use. It mainly impacts the toe area for me. I'm hoping it's just this pair, because otherwise this is a great neutral shoe. I always love all the colors that Brooks offers in this style and have a hard time picking which one to buy.

Very comfortable with some support for a flip flop-----

Loved the look (I got the blue print) and they were very cushioned to walk on. The fit was great but no matter how tightly or loosely I tied them, they were tight and uncomfortable all around the opening of the shoe. Just not a good fit for my feet even though everywhere else they were great! Sad to send them back.

I had to return my 8.5 and order a 9 (women's). Still right at the toe, but I'll keep them. REALLY like the arch support on these shoes. And they look great!
