Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 14

too stiff, not enough cushion at the forfoot

I love brooks. I wear them all the time. I bought the same exact pair I have. It seems the left shoe hurts. I have been trying to wear to see if it gets better and it does not.

They?re not as comfortable as my Ghost 13?s. I also don?t feel the arch support as I did with the previous model, I?ll need to see what other models are better suited for me.

I have bunions and high arches. The shoes increase my pain

They are very narrow , I need a wide. Please tell me how to exchange them

Disappointed with quality. I've been wearing Ghosts since version 6 all the way to this version, 14. Each iteration has been flimsier than the last, less durable (street runner) and wear out faster (averaging 20-30 mile weeks all these years). I love the color ways available, but I'm a substance over style person when it comes to my running gear, so it may be time I look for a new shoe.

Been wearing Brooks for years. Always Adrenaline and ghost. I have this ghost in black and navy, and have been trying to break them in which I have never had to do. I never remember having to choose a width before. They are medium which is what I found them in but run very narrow. I think we should have been warned in ads that this shoe is cut much narrower than previous Ghost models. I can?t return them. I have been trying to get used to them for months. Are hardly worn, however.

Definitely do not like the 14 over the 13. Don't know what they think Carbon Neutral is but it does not make a better shoe. The flat laces are horrible. They are cheap and slippery and have to be re-tied mid-run even though they are double-knotted. All around poor remake.

The first pair I ordered was a 9 W, and my toes hit the front of the shoe, so I re-ordered a 9 -1/2 W, but my feet hurt all the time. I think the "last" is too long, and my arch doesn't sit right. I couldn't wait to get them off at night. I wear them all day, every day. So I am wearing an old pair, which are an "Ariel" style. They fit fine in the length. I have had two pair of the Ariel's and can't remember why I changed from Ghost to them a few years ago. Is it possible to return these new ones and try the Ariel in a 9 W. I think the Ghost last's longer, but something has changed. I am not a runner, I am 92 years old and my running days are over, but I wear your Brooks shoes everywhere, even to church.

Cushion and support for me was too hard. Fit size 8 and width B was good.

I was very happy with the Ghost 13 and wore them for a lot longer than I should have after reading reviews for the Ghost 14. They finally fell apart, so I ordered the Ghost 14 in March, 2022. The 14 never fit my foot correctly and caused pain in the toebox area on my left foot. I also feel that the quality of the materials used to make the shoe are degrading. These shoes are already worn out, and I've only been wearing them for 7 months. Would not recommend the Ghost 14.

This ghost is not comfortable. I'm returning them. The ghost 12 was the best

I wanted to love them. I tried hard to love them. Denial and false hope allowed me to go weeks blaming my leg, hip and back pain on everything but my new shoes. They have to break in, I said. It's just an adjustment, I said. Must've been too much leg day yesterday, I said. After having to stop because I literally couldn't feel my feet, I switched to my old worn out Ghost 11s and all my ailments were cured in two days. Back to the drawing board for a replacement. They look fantastic - two stars for style. I have never heard so many compliments on my running shoes before and considered keeping them for knock-around wear, but alas, function won out over form. Sorry, my beloved Ghosts, we have to break up.

I have worn Brooks forever and Ghosts for several years and have always loved them but so far I?m disappointed in my most recent purchase. I have never had plantar fasciitis but I?m starting to develop issues over the past few weeks since switching to these shoes. I?m a PT so I have a good understanding of what I?m dealing with but I think I?m going back to my old ones for now.
