Still my go-to running shoe, but I get the sense that the toe box is shrinking in the recent models. A 15 2E (wide) used to fit perfectly. But now even 2E feels a bit narrow. Could be my foot and not the shoe I would also love to see some more vibrant color styles.

The shoes are what you've come to expect from the Brooks Ghost line. Amazingly comfortable. However, the colorways leave something to be desired. I understand the trend of bold colors for running shoes but compared to the 14s, the 15s left most standard/"normal" colorways behind. Unfortunately the 15s reside in the running category as the colors just don't mesh with the "everyday" wear/fashion most people desire. Would recommend toning down the design line to accommodate those who wish to wear these as everyday attire.

The Ghost 15 running shoe is just that, a great running shoe. I felt that the toe box was a but snug but did like it. I also felt like the front of the shoe was not as stable as other shoes. However, while using it for it intended purpose; running, it was a great shoe. I really liked the angle on the toe, it seemed to help with my running and forward progression. I feel like it made running much easier. The shoes had great cushion and did not give me blisters and I did not have any traction issues while running on wet surfaces. I found them easy to clean and would spray them off and let them air dry. I have added them into my regular weekly rotation utilizing them multiple times every week.

The fit and feel is fine but the inside lining of the left shoe came apart 8 months in. I do not wear these everyday. I have four/five pairs of shoes I rotate. I have had many Brooks Beast over years. They remain my favorite. The internal lining coming apart was a surprising failure for this normally very durable product.

I was wearing the Adreniline GTS 22 for a year with no problems. When I search for a replacement my size/width was not on sale so I ordered the Ghost model since it had good reviews. After wearing for four 4-5 mile walks over a week I develop knee pain on the right leg and foot pain on the left. I returned 2 pair, will purchase new adrenaline model.

I have worn Ghost running shoes for fifteen plus years and they are the only athletic shoes I like as I require a firm foot bed. Just bought the Ghost 15 to replace my worn pair because the foot bed was smooshed and worn down. Something has changed in the way Brooks makes the Ghost new foot bed because the new pair lacks firmness. Instead, it's soft with more cushion and squishiness. I wore the new pair for less than one week and my knees, hips, and feet are killing me. This foot bed lacks firm support and will be returning. Why did Brooks change a good thing?

I don't recommend this sneaker because they are not comfortable for a long period of time, for example a 12 hour shift and they are not made from a good quality material because my feet developed bad odor.

4E version is insanely wide (not in a good way!). Laces are a clown-like length...way too long. Regretting my purchase.

I have worn Ghosts for many years, always have 2 pairs in rotation. This model 15 is not like previous versions, not even close. The fit across the foot, the toe area didn't work for me, and my normal size is too long. Why do companies change something that worked so well? I will order another Adrenaline 22 in the meantime, my 2nd fav sneaker.

Found it wasn't the same as my Ghost 14: The Ghost 15 was slipping in the heel, had to return. Very disappointed because I loved the Ghost 14.

Shoe rubbed my left toe & was not comfortable. In fact the cushioning & feel of this Brooks Ghost 15 was not the same as past 2023 Brooks. I am returning them.

I wore the Ghost 14 everyday for a year. So what did I do next? I retired them, made them my mowing shoes, and bought the Ghost 15. They were okay for three months. After that, I had terrible pain in my Achilles' and ankles. This is the only shoe I've ever had to cause me pain like this. On to New Balance I guess

I took a break from running in Ghosts for a few years as the quality and comfort declined. I decided to give them another try but after trying both a medium width (which I normally wear) it was to snug so I returned them and went with a wide. These are not comfortable either, so I plan to return them as well. Just not as comfortable as they were in the past.

Initially I thought these were going to be great. But the 8 1/2 wide, my big toe rubs the side seam, and after only a month, have completely broken down. Very disappointed.

I have the same shoe in another color that I purchased months ago. This pair was a great deal bigger than the Size 9 that I have had for months. I am disappointed, so they are on their way back to you.

This is the second pair of ghosts (14 then 15) I bought and I don't find them very comfortable. I've been trying them out for a couple of weeks and they hurt my feet and it hasn't gotten any better. My feet hurt if I wear them for a short while and even more so if I wear them longer. The shoes could be a good pair for someone else but these are not working for me.

This has been my shoe of choice for many years. Not sure what has changed, but the structure and support is flimsy. My old ghost offers more support than my brand new ones. Not sure I'll purchase anymore after this experience

I do not normally write reviews, but coming from a pair of Ghost 14 that I loved for the better part of 5 months, my expectations were high for the Ghost 15. I walk a lot for my work and usually log about 8k steps a day. I got my shoes March 5 and its now April 22nd. The toe box feels completely broken down and making the balls of my feet hurt. Perhaps sub 150 miles of walking is this shoe's limit and I just got lucky with the previous Ghost 14 pair.

It caused me pain in my both my feet unfortunately. Didn't feel neutral to my foot even though neutral works for me usually. Also the narrow was still a little wide in the sole.

Don't like changes in fit. Narrow is now too wide in the toe box even with extra socks, but heel is ok (I take AA with AAAA heel normally). Not sure if arch or padding has changed but overall not as comfy as previous versions. Wish you'd bring back the "old" stretchy laces. Overall fit not as comfortable as earlier versions of Ghost.

When using Superfeet insoles in these shoes, they squeak horrendously. I have two pairs of Ghost and can't use the insoles in either of them. Is it the cheap materials you ate using to manufacture these shoes? I have never had a problem with any other brand of shoes I've used the insults with. Also Ghost 12 material around the ankle is different than Ghost 14, the 14 are fairly new and the ankle material inside is wearing down and fraying. Just bought some Ghost Max, but this will be my last purchase of Brooks. Quality detiorating.

I really liked Ghost 14 better as 14 had more padding in the footbed and was more comfortable for long walks and runs.
