Unfortunately, the fit of the shoe did not work for me. It was well made but just did not work for me. I returned them.

Definitely runs smaller than previous Ghost. I've been wearing Brooks Ghost for years, size 10. This is the first time I've had to return them due to being too small (and my feet are not any bigger). Decided to go with Hoka Bondi, instead, which are amazing.

I wish they made the cactus/purple in adrenaline model. I love love love the colors in that but I prefer adrenaline for working out and jogs. More and better support. If you need neutral support then these are great. If you need more then these aren?t a good choice. Brooks please make more fun colors like cactus purple in adrenaline!!!

I did not like the all black so I never wore them!

The shoes are fine, but the toe box is HUGE, which makes my feet look enormous, and the shoelaces that come with the shoes regularly and easily become untied. Pretty expensive for something I would consider a basic walking shoe (except for the fun black and purple leopard print design).

I wore them around the house at first and all was good. Then went out for a walk and then some shopping. Now they squeak when I walk. Can't sneak up on anyone. Sigh..............

They feel a bit narrow and rubbed a blister on my big toe from my feet being smashed. The sizing itself is ok. I'm still wearing them trying to break them in. They are lightweight.

This is my second pair of ghosts. They?re my recovery shoes so I don?t wear them for every run. My last version were great! These ones feel clunky & stiff. The look great but I don?t think they?re comfortable. I?ve done about 70 miles in them & they have yet to soften up.

I have worn Brooks Ghost shoes for a long time. This is the fourth pair. I'm not as happy with the Ghost 14. It has less overall cushion than prior Ghost shoes . To describe it I would say it feels cheaper.

The shoes are comfortable enough. The main disappointment is in the color choice in my size. I need a wide footbed and my only option was a very boring light gray. The shoe is fine, it?s just ugly. Why do companies assume that those with a wide foot don?t want the same level of styling?

The Ghost shoes I?ve had before had better arch support. This pair doesn?t. I was grateful I could get it in narrow (you don?t make enough shoes in narrow), but for my high arch the cushioning was disappointing.

They felt too big and too thin-soled.

My 10th or 12th pair of Ghost. Only 13 was a disappointment. Just wish they were more stylish

I have worn Ghosts for the past 8 years or so. I feel like every few years the when the new Ghost comes out there is a slight difference in comfort and fit. I love color and style of the Ghost 14 but for some reason it feels less supportive and cushion so sadly I am returning them

I love brooks. My last pair got too loose so I went down. That was a mistake. I was told I wear a 6.0 so I got a 6.5 wide because my feet are border wide. The 6.5 w was just as tight as the 6. I just can't seem to find the size for me.

I wanted to love these, but after wearing them in the house for a few days, they just felt too snug. I like to fast walk about 3 miles a day and these would not have been comfortable on me.

Everything feels great with one exception. No matter how much I?ve changed the laces around, these shoes make my toes go numb about 20 minutes into a run. I?ve switched back and forth to my other shoes and the problem does not occur with those, so it?s definitely related to the shoes.

My Ghost 13s fit perfectly, but these were too tight, even in the wide width. Had to send them back after 1 run.

With all the improvements you still haven?t given them enough arch support. And you still don?t offer the really cool colors in the D width.

I wear a 6.5M shoe. Ghost 14 runs a FULL SIZE SMALLER than my normal size. I had to get a 7.5M for the length.

I was told by shoe store that I wear a 6 shoe. That is what I ordered first. Those were too tight so I went a half size bigger and got wide width. Those felt exactly the same tightness at the 6 medium shoe. So now they are being returned. I've gotten brooks ghost before and they stretched out and became too loose
I was really hoping to find ther perfect fit but I'm thinking I'll have to go to another brand. They are super comfortable until they stretch out.

Every foot is different, but I wish they were more comfortable on the top of my feet, no matter how loose I make the shoelaces it feels like the shoe is too tight on the top. Toe area plenty of wiggle room. I wish the shoelaces were a little longer. I got these because of the cute cheetah theme (the school I work for has a cheetah mascot :)) but I most likely will not get Ghost shoes in the future. I welcome suggestions to make the shoes more comfortable.

This is my fourth or fifth pair of Ghosts and while they are the CUTEST, they are not comfortable at all. I never buy shoes online because I want to make sure they are are great fit, but since I'm a long-time Ghost wearer, I figured I'd be safe. There is a slight arch support, but they are not cushiony at all. I'm very disappointed that I'll need to spend more money on insoles on top of the $100+ I spent on the shoes.
