It's a supportive running shoe. I'm not that wild about the color, but it was the only color available in my size at the time of purchase.

I didn’t realize these had pride written all over them. I had a similar pair that was colorful, disappointed, returning

I just bought a pair of Ghost 15 about a mth ago. I work in a factory, standing for 10 hrs. At,1st comfortable then in 2 weeks feet started hurting,then they felt better,but feel they have wore down already in the heel and lower on the arch. They,shouldn't wear down as fast, at least they should be good for 6 mths or longer,but ok for now.

I love the sneakers however the laces are horrible. They continue to untie while running.

I am an 84 year old male and the ghost 15 was recommended by my doctor. I am not a runner--never have been and never will be. The shoe is great for just getting around. Fits good, feel good
and looks good, What else can I say? Folks my age should have a pair rather than a pair of those white sneakers that scream, I'm really old!!

nice comfortable sneaker, good support and fit, wish it had a little more padding in the mid-foot.

While still largely comfortable, the position of the arch seems to have changed (moved back towards the heel). Might be my foot, but my 3 older ghost insoles feel different than this, andif it keeps changing I'll probably try to find something else.

I usually run in New Balance shoes but tried the Brooks Ghost 15 beginning in mid April. This shoe has good stability, broke in a bit slow, fair cushioning ( all when compared to NB ). Seems quite durable and I will purchase the Ghost 15 again. Maybe even try the Ghost 16.

Fit well and are very comfortable. However, the outside of the toe box has already worn through and I have had this pair for only one year and change. I wear these shoes daily and the rest of the shoe (and the other shoe) is in good condition. The quality of the material covering the toe box is poor.

Great shoe. Consistent fit. I swear the soles do not last as long as they used to. I have been using the Ghost line since Ghost 10s. My only complaint is that they (the soles) should last longer for this expensive of a shoe.

I love the shoes. They seem to run a little big. I wear a 9.5 but think I should order a 9 next time.

Felt snug but I kept figuring they’d stretch but its taking longer than I thought it would. Might buy stretchers or go to cobbler.

I ordered Wides and they still felt a tad too narrow. They rubbed on the side of my feet so I had to return. Ended up ordering the Ghost 16 because they were more comfortable and felt wider even though I didn't need a wide size. My Ghost 15 from last year were great though, not sure if they changed the style.

My wife bought and wears Brooks' Ghost 15 for walking, balance and posture. She's 88 until mid-November this year, so shoes that fit and support her are crucial to her well being. She says they are the best shoes she has ever worn.
I agree. I recommended Brooks to her after wearing the Brooks 23 for the past year. I'm in electronics sales, on my feet eight hours daily on granite floors. I'm 81. These shoes were the highest recommendation in an article I read about the Postural Restoration Institute. They support my feet and keep me standing tall all day. I'm not a runner, but I need shoes that support me and allow freedom of movement.

The ghost 15 has been a really good shoe for me so far. I've had it for a couple weeks and it feels really good. It feels like it is going to last a while and there is not a lot of wear on the bottoms despite using them as my everywhere shoe. My only gripe is the heel to toe drop. Coming from new balances it is a noticeable difference. I imagine that with more time I will get used to it and the softness does make up for some of the discomfort that I initially felt. I look forward to using them for a long time.

Could use more arch support. I use an insert to firm things up.

They're OK. If only I could tweak a thing or two they'd have a loyal customer.
Tie box needs to be a smidge wider as the big toe rubs & the materials are so obviously cheap. Design colors / options are great
The only reason I keep them is overall comfort compared to a few other brands tested.

Didn't meet previous comfort of previously Ghost 15. I have never had a break-in period with Ghost. I've lost count of how many pairs I have bought; at least 8. This pair was stiff from the beginning and my feet were sore for over 2 weeks. Still had great cushioning, but was very disappointed.

I love Brooks shoes, but, always immediately replace the thin insoles which provide no support or cushion.

Like others, loved these shoes from the first try - got 2 pairs. But quickly realized the left shoe was shifting my foot off the left toes instead of straight. Both pairs, but much more so in the Oyster color. I'm reordering the same ones to see if I get better ones. If not, I just might love them enough to get orthotics to solve the issue.
