I have worn Brooks for many years and this is the first pair that hurts. The toe bed is weird and rubs the big toes. I will return the shoes.

I wear brooks ghost - these are either mis-sized or Brooks is making the shoe longer. Also they are not as well made as previous pairs I’ve had. Very disappointing.

Felt half size smaller and narrower than usual- STYLE POINT WAS MEGA HIGH!!!
I knew immediately trying on that I dare not attempt to run in as my big toe was at the edge of shoe.

Ordered my usual size, fit okay, but absolutely no arch support, for that amount of money, the quality should be better

I love ghosts, but noticed right away that something was different with this pair. I am not able to lunge right as well as I used to be able to. I thought it was my form, but I now have chronic pain in that same foot and realize that there is something just off with that shoe. Im thankful for their awesome return policy and returning them and buying another hoping it’s just this pair. I haven’t used them outside for running, but my cushion is still in tact from my weight training, cardio workouts and treadmill running. I’ve had them about 6 months and workout 3-5 days a week

I have had Ghost 9 and 10s and they are my favorite sneakers. I supinate, instead of pronate, so I need a neutral arch, which these 15s deliver. However, the insole is not comfortable. When I first put them on, I don't get that, "Aaah, nice cushion!" feeling like I did with my 10s. After just a few hours, I feel what cushion there is has completely gone and my feet begin to hurt. I have lost 40# in the past year and I thought that would help the issue, but it doesn't. I still have my 10s which I can wear comfortably longer than my 15s and they have a lot less cushion left than originally, but they also have no more tread. Which is why I bought the 15s. I am so disappointed as I was excited to have a fun-colored new cushiony, updated shoe, and they just fell flat of my expectations. Pun intended. I will likely have to find another brand now since I fear my plantar fasciitis will act up in these sneakers.

Love the style and selection of colors. But really disappointed in the comfort for the price I paid. I can't get through half my 8 hour shift and wish I didn't wear them. I feel like I have to constantly stretch out my arches!

I've been wearing Ghost for several years. I ordered the exact size I need but these are the first pair I've ever had that chafe the back of my achilles, ultimately causing blisters. This was just from walking around for about 10 miles. I hope they stretch or something.

I'm so sad to return this shoe. When I tried on my Ghost 13's for the first time it was life changing...like they molded for my feet; no break-in needed. I tried on the Ghost 15 and was like, Meh. The 13 embraces my entire foot including the arch. In the 15, I didn't get that hug to my foot at all, none-the-less my arch. I also noticed the cheaper laces and was just sad and turned off - not getting my $140 for dat. The whole shoe felt flat rather than cushioned and like they cheapened the materials.

These were initially comfortable with the support of my feet. However, within a week to ten days of having them (running and walking in them 5-6 days per week) and my big toe ached while wearing. I have fairly narrow feet and would expect more room in the toe box. I ended up returning due to the pain

I have never written a review before but wanted to get my message across. I am returning these. Have been wearing Brooks for well over 20 years, and the Ghost 14, which I love, for a year. The Ghost 15 has no support and no cushioning. I am very disappointed

Ordered a pair of extra wide/4E. Was hopping for a looser fit. Would like to see more color options on this width.

I have bought the 12, 13 14 Chost and I find that the 15's are not as sturdy as the others. Less support side to side

A little disappointed with these shoes . I had the Glycerin 20 before these and they were perfect. These on the other hand are not comfortable. The plastic on the inside toe folds in and hits my toes inside . I'm on my feet as an occupational therapist in a hospital so these don't pass the test for me.

I had to return them because the Ghost 14 in Wide fit perfectly and now they messed with the design on the Ghost 15 and the Wide is not wide enough. Bummer, but that means I can no longer wear Brooks.

I've been wearing the Ghost style for 6 years, but the 15 is not working for me. The new toe box is too stiff and confining. It feels as if my toes are always rubbing and, unfortunately, they just are not comfortable. The fit at my arch is good, and I did love the color choice, but I will be returning this shoe.

I love Brooks but stopped wearing them for several years due to lack of wide selection. I recently bought a pair only because you finally had a limited edition in wide. Please please expand the availability/styles available in wide. Also please remember that wide feet need longer laces. I can barely tie the shoes because the laces are so short.

Ghost 15 is a nice shoe. Would like to see more colors in wide widths. Very difficult to find 12 1/2, EE in bold colors.

Ghost 15 wide width shoe looks great but is too narrow for my wide foot. I need to return it.

Unhappy with the fit. Totally different from my first Brook Ghost 13.
Unable to do my daily 2 miles walk. Heel fit uncomfortable. Not as wide from my first pair.
Can they still be returned?
