Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 14

The Brooks Ghost 14 was not as comfortable as I was hoping, very little cushioning. The length was true to size. I ordered a wide and this is more narrow than any wide shoe I've ever bought. I'm not going to risk my arches wearing it without a better insole. However, there isn't much room in the shoe for that, even though it's a wide. The main reason I have kept them is because they do not have a gusseted tongue. I'm finding that the higher end of neutral, cushioned, running shoes now have a gusseted tongue, making it difficult to get my high arch, high instep/volume foot down into. I've had to return several pair of other name brand athletic shoes for this reason. I also have plantar fasciitis, making shoe buying more difficult. I haven't worn them outside yet as I was still undecided if they will work. If you have normal feet, you may love these. I do like the style and navy color. Zappos is great!

This is a full size smaller than the ghost 13! had to return

It seems to run narrow and longer though I got the Wide. I have bunions and wide feet.

When I put on a different version of the Ghost, the shoes were immediately comfortable out of the box. The Ghost 14 was a very different experience. The arch support seemed to make my foot ache and after 1 walk in the shoes I developed knee pain. Something about these shoes and I just didn't get along.

Did not have the cushioning and arch support that I have had in other Ghost shoes.

It is frustrating when the manufacturer changes a shoe so that it fits totally different from a year earlier. Half size too small and narrow for a wide.

These fit perfectly. Super comfortable and supportive with lots of cushioning. My favorite Brooks yet. I am ordering another pair to have for when this pair wears out. The wide size is just right without being too wide like New Balance wide.

I've been ordering the same size in Brooks for years but this time they were super big? Not sure if there has been a change or I just got the random pair marked 9 but was actually a 10?

Not enough depth in the toe, so I cannot fit my foot with the arthritic toe into the shoe without great pain. Please go back to the previous toe depth!

I ordered the same size I wear in my new balance sneakers; but I found these too small. They fit but were not wide enough. Disappointed in the sizing.

Every year I buy brooks ghost always wear a 10 wide these seem bigger than the previous ones.

I have to echo another reviewer's comment about how the toe box feels narrower in the Ghost 14 than it was in the Ghost 13. I used to run in Brooks Pure Flow, and switched to the Ghost 13 when the Pure Flows were phased out. So when it came time to buy new shoes, I tried the Ghost 14s, foolishly imagining they'd be the same or better than the 13s. But no, these are going back, because running for only a few minutes hurt my toes. And I'm ordering a few pairs of the 13s before they're all sold out! Hopefully the 15s will be more like the 13s.

Fit is true to size but color is too strong. The mint color is very big and not to my liking

Nice looking sneaker. The toe box is narrower than previous Ghost sneakers I've worn.

After wearing these on a short jog and house errands, I had a sore spot on the left side of my left foot. I took them off and was sore for the rest of the day. I ordered my regular size, 8.5 and usually take a 39 Euro, but these were 40 Euro. Still, they should not have caused pain. Disappointed.

My foot is hard to fit - status post 4 surgeries on the joints between my big toes and foot, wide foot, high arch, narrow heel, and I’m a supinator. On the recommendation of a shoe fitter, I tried the Ghost 11’s and they were terrific right out of the box in my usual 7W. Sadly, they really needed to be replaced, so I tried the Ghost 14, which didn’t fit in the 7W. I returned for a 7.5 W - Better, but not entirely comfortable and it seemed like they turned my foot out. I tried wearing them for a bit, but after only about an hour, they made my feet hurt so much I had to take them off. So I’ve returned them. Although I wouldn’t have returned for the look alone, I liked the Ghost 11’s style much better and quality of the material also seemed better. When I returned the 7W, I also tried a Ghost 13. Better look, better fit than the 14’s, but not really comfortable, so they went back, too. Very disappointed by these changes to the Ghost.
