Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 15

The Ghost 15 is comfortable however more roomy in the heel and toe box than the Ghost 14. This shoe fits more like the Glycerine and for those of us with more narrow feet Brooks keeps making their shoes too roomy. Very cushy and supportive but too wide throughout the entire shoe compared to the Ghost 14. If you continue with the new sizing please offer narrow for customers with narrow feet.

Still a great running shoe that mimics the Ghost 14! No "breaking in" necessary! Plenty of cushion and lightweight. But the Wide size is still narrower than the Ghost 13 (Ghost 14 and 15 are narrower), so my first toe joints will hang over the inner boundaries of the shoe. Also the "ribbon" style shoelace is more difficult to tie and untie, and I found that it unties itself during running more often than the rounder shoelace like Ghost 13 had.

The shoes are very nice looking and I love the sole. I use an orthopedic insert and it fits well. The shoes are wider and roomier than my Ghost 13. The heel is not as snug fitting as the Ghost 13. I think the Ghost 13 fit a bit better and were a little narrower. The Ghost 15 is cushioned better but with a more sloppy fit.

I find them a little narrower than the Ghost 14. I just bought another pair yesterday But Cadence were/are my favorite. I need something with a more rounded toe

I'm going to agree with those who have mentioned that Ghost 12 were the best shoe yet! I used to experience major ankle pain while running, until I found Brooks. Unfortunately, the pain came back with Ghost 14 and now Ghost 15 has very limited supply of wide options. Needless to say, I will be skipping this version and am now on the market for a new shoe.

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.

The middle of the shoebed has an oddly high arch and "hill" in the center which was literally digging into the bottom of my foot and causing me physical pain. I've read about this in some other reviews on these shoes and others. I don't know if it is a new design thing, but it needs to go. I tried them for a day, and they are just too uncomfortable to keep. Also, the shoelaces are flat, and they don't stretch like the ones on my old ghosts which had a stretchy feel. I liked the stretchy ones because they did not put any pressure on the tops of my feet. Shoelaces are a big part of the shoe, and I think the stretchy ones should come back.

I've always loved Ghosts but these seemed to lose their cushioning within 3 months. Disappointing. I wonder if anyone else had the same issue.

After many years and many pairs, I've ended my love affair with Ghosts. 15 is no longer fits my foot- the shoe is longer and sleeker, especially in the toe area, and is not as stable as past pairs. I purchased a pair of Glycerin 20s, however, so will give them a try. Interestingly, my new Glycerins look a lot like my older Ghosts.

Really wanted to love these shoes & was intrigued by the reviews, but after a short 3 mile run the soles of my feet were killing me. Tried them on the treadmill & had the same pain. My feet hurt as I'm typing this. I am usually a Brooks Glycerin girl, so perhaps this wasn't the right shoe for me. Even a long walk leaves my feet hurting. Overall, pretty disappointing unfortunately!

This is the 4th pair of brooks ghost shoes that I have bought. My feet always said aaaahhhhh when I put them on. They only last 9 months for me but they comfort was worth it. Now they are too tight in the toes and I always get wide shoes even though one foot is normal and the other is barely wide. They are more narrow also. I wore them to work and I tripped a few times. Brooks said that they fixed support issues but what they did was cut out more material. I am very disappointed and out a lot of money.

Since the Ghost 12 you have continuosly made the toe box narrower on the Ghost shoes. To the point that the 15s hurt my feet to wear. I will have to find another shoe to wear in the future.

They are narrower in the toe box than the 14. I also feel like they seemed slightly stiffer than the 14.

Not near as much cushion as my previous Saucony's. Not sure the quality is as good as it was a few years ago when I wore Ghosts.

I don't know why has changed but I'm frustrated with the inconsistency in the fit The shoes are not the same size left and right and the arch is like a "bump" where my arch is Very uncomfortable and the right shoe is longer than the left shoe!

I'm not sure what has happened to this shoe but I'm going to move on. Wide shoes have been narrow and the soft cushy feeling they used to have are no more. My feet and legs hurt. Sadly disappointed.

Time for me to find a new brand. I started with ghost 11 and it was a great shoe. I have wide feet and some neuropathy. The pins and needles and stabbing pain disappeared with the 11's and I bought as many pairs as I could find after they were discontinued. Each new edition has gotten harder and tighter. I bought 2 pairs of the ghost 15's but they are too hard for me so I gave away.

at first they were ok. but if i sirens more than an hour in them i find the toe box too narrow and constricting. maybe i need a bigger size?
