I get a pair of Ghosts every year and the 15's that I recently bought have a problem- in the toe box, there is some fabric that comes unglued or unstitched from the top and gets caught in my toes. This has never been an issue prior to this pair. It didn't start until after a few wears, and I hope this is corrected in the future.

I run out doors on a number of different hard surfaces. Your shoes are extremely slippery on damp/wet blacktop/Macadam roads.

I have been wearing Ghosts for several years. I love them and they are the best running shoe for me! but the 15s are definitely different. It is so disappointing when a shoe company changes great things about a tried and true shoe. The shoe is narrower. It doesn't feel as good or look as good. They are still overall a good running shoe but just be aware they are narrower then the 14s

I personally like the Ghost 13 and under ,
They seem to last longer, fit better and of course the round shoe laces were much better quality

Decent distance running shoe but if you have any sort of Achilles / heel pain this shoe will exacerbate it and make it worse.

I ordered this shoe in black and I really like the way the it looks. However, I feel like they are wide and I really have to tighten the laces to make them comfortable. The size guide actually said to order a 9. I ordered my usual Brooks size 8.5M. The length seems good. I'm still deciding if I will keep them.

I have loved the ghost show. This latest pair 15 is not as comfortable as the 14. It seems much more rigid the the older version.

The shoe isn't bad but I really dislike the flat laces, they slip during a run....very dangerous. Bring back the older round laces they were great.

Have only had these a few weeks and the verdict is still out. I've been wearing Brooks Ghosts for the last 8-10 years. This iteration is comfortably cushioned. I would have immediately given it 5 stars had it not been for the toe box which seems narrower than in the past. Consequently, after wearing for a short walk or even a trip to the grocery store they are rubbing on the side of my big toe. Not sure if I will keep them. Will keep testing and reevaluate.

I'm a bigger guy 230#. I heal strike hard. The inner cushion sole is thin. Half mile in soreness started and by one and a half miles I had to stop. These may become a walking shoe, but first will order a Sof-Sole as a replacement inner sole. Time shall tell.

I have worn Ghost shoes for at least 10 years and really like the way they feel. The only complaint I have about Ghost 15 is they changed the shoelaces to flat instead of the round they used to put on Ghost shoes. They started this with Ghost 14 I think and have continued it with Ghost 15. Flat shoelaces do not stay tied as well as round, no matter what you do (double knot, etc.) I want them to go back to round shoelaces. It is a safety issue with runners.

Love my Brook shoes as I have worn Glycerin's for years so I tried the Ghost. BUT I should have stuck with what worked because when I take my shoes off I feel like my foot was smooshed in a press. I literally have to massage them to get the knots out. I am very flat footed & I am on my feet from 7:30am- 6:30pm sometimes even later. I do not suggest the Ghost for people for who have little to no arch. I am going to be back to my original.

The shoes were very pretty and looked aesthetic! They just were not for me. They really hurt my feet when I was looking for support but I know everyone's feet are different! I would try them out before judging!

I have run in Ghost shoes for a number of years. My last Half Marathon race the insole folded inside my shoes at mile 8. I never had this happen before. At the same race I won a pair of shoes ata local ProBikeRun store. I decided to try a new shoe. I have only run a couple times since then but I really like the Glycerin. Try something new you might be surprised at the result.

I liked the Ghost 15-the look and once I put it on I was comfortable. After running for 40 min several times I found my big toe was hitting the side and not comfortable. I run often and I can't have that happen. I have a pair of Pure Flow 7 for a long time and they are comfortable every time I put them on-running over and over.

I loved all the ghost shoes,this 15 is NOT my favorite,too much room in the toe box and seems like my feet move around in the shoe too much,idk maybe to wide eventho I purchased the 1b,I'll still wear them but not my favorite,I absolutely loved the 12 and 13's

My first pair of Ghosts were amazing! I have foot pain 24/7 (plantar fasciitis and more), and a friend recommended the Ghost style. I had a few pair over a few years. These are not the same. I do not appreciate the short stiff tongue. I prefer a cushioned one. I do not feel an amazing cushioned fit like before.

I own 3 pair of Ghost shoes, these are not the same shoe. Not enough cushion and padding for being on your feet all day on concrete. I returned which was super simple

They are pretty comfortable. I just wish you had the pretty colors in 9.5 wide women's.

The tongue slides to the side unless there tied tighter then is comfortable for me.

It seems like the ghost 15 doesn't have quite as much cushion/structural support as the ghost 13. Like every other shoe, they have changed the structure of the footbed so it feels less supportive and cheap. The toe box feels pretty comfortable, but something has changed because after a few hours of wearing it, I get pain under the ball of my foot. It's just not as comfortable or as good as the ghost 13s that I have. I guess I will just have to wear those out and be done with the Ghosts

I love the look but I thought my feet would be more comfortable due to the ratings and the high price tag. I finish my work shift with achy feet

I loved the Ghost 14. They fit my foot perfectly. I could no longer find any in my size, so I gambled that the Ghost 15 would be the same or similar enough, maybe even better! But something changed on the Ghost 15 in regards to where the arch hits my foot. These shoes are not as good (for me) as the 14's and I am slightly disappointed that I can feel a slight discomfort when I run.
I wanted to love them! The color/style was beautiful.

I already own a pair of Ghosts that have worked well. Ordered a second pair as the first was wearing out. The 2nd pair fit completely differently, much looser in the toe box to the extent that I had the laces cinched about 1/4" tighter on top and foot still had movement. Not great quality control to have this much variation in fit across two pairs of the exact same shoe. Ended up returning them.
