i like the shoes, the only complaint i have is with the color. I ordered the nightlife and black shoes and they looked yellow online but they are bright neon green.

Got extra wide very comfortable.
I do find that the shoe sometimes sticks on surfaces whilst I am walking .
Consequently I can feel unsteady .
I do find the shoe offers good support.
I'm a nurse working in a medical facility and walks a lot .

Big Brooks fan over here! First time trying the Ghost 15 - always loved the Glycerin 19 (20 was never as good as the 19). Loving the comfort of the Ghost 15, HOWEVER, (as many other posts noted) the sizing is definitely off. I always wear a 6.5 in Brooks yet the 6.5 in the Ghost 15 is a big in the toe area and wider than usual. I tried a size 6, but it was too small, so, I chalk it up to off sizing. I'd stay stick with your original sizing and wear a bulkier sock. Honestly, it is a bit frustrating as these shoes are incredibly comfortable.

Having some issues with the ball of my left foot while using these. Ran 7 miles today though and it feels better. Could have been another issue with the wear of my foot from other exercise and didn't combo with the shoes.

Ghost 12 was a great shoe. So much more comfortable and cushioned. Ghost 15 seems to be not as cushioning. I only use it for walking, but I still notice. While I appreciate that the Ghost comes in a narrow size, it doesn't seem to be quite as narrow as it used to be. I wish you would come out with a Ghost Classic for those of us that like the older versions (as long as it comes in a narrow size too!).

The comfort I fell in love with when I got Ghost 11 (?) I was disappointed with Ghost 12,13,14. Based on reviews, I ordered a half a size smaller and they fit perfectly. Nice, stability and cushioning and I love that pump at the top of the shoe where your toes to hang over a little. Finally satisfied with my new ghosts.

The shoes are very comfortable and supportive. They seem like they are a little bit shorter than the size 9s that I've been buying for years and the shoestrings are too short. I have fairly narrow feet, so people who had a little bit wider feet must really have problems with the shoestrings.

I love the Brooks Ghost, so I ordered another when mine we're getting worn out. Unfortunately, I assumed I could order the same size online and expect the same fit. (I had the 14 before)
I went out to run and they felt sloppy and my big toe nail kept hitting the seam causing pain. I got home and put my old ghosts on and there is an obvious size discrepancy. I looked to make sure I hadn't accidentally ordered the wrong size or width. Because they feel wider and longer. I'm pretty upset as I hunted high and low to get the limited quantity in the snow white/blush/cosmic sky colour. And now I doubt there are any in a smaller size for me to exchange for. Pretty bummed to feel I wasted this money.

Great shoe. Very comfy. Not quite enough arch support for me-my feet are pretty narrow and I have high arches, but nothing some insoles won't fix. Hopefully they last at least as long as my last Brooks shoes did.

This is my second pair of Ghosts (I had several pairs of Revels prior to Ghosts). These sneakers fit well, were extremely comfortable, and provided great support. My only disappointment with these sneakers was the rapid wearing of the soles. I walk and run 3-4 miles roughly 4 times a week on pavement and the soles have worn down to nothing in under three months. These are easily the most worn Brooks sneakers I've ever purchased. If the soles held up better, I would have given a 5 of 5 rating.

Very comfortable shoe. I walk/run 5 miles a day on paved surface. I wish that the sole wore better as almost all the tread is gone in two months. Maybe use the same rubber that is on the heel on the forefoot.

I used to run in trail runners, but someone in a running store recommended that I try these since I run mostly in parks and not on hiking trails. Overall they are very light and comfortable, but the soles feel a bit thin so I feel the pebbles and roots under my feet. Also they seem very wide in the front and luckily I was able to order a narrow option, which is slightly better.

I ended up liking these, but they took a little bit of wearing around the house to be sure. The initial feel was very hard - not cushioned at all - but did feel better after wearing for 3-4 hours around the house. They also feel less neutral than prior iterations to me. I'm a mild supinator, and I feel like there's a bit of built up heel on the outer edge pushing my foot inward. I adjusted my gait slightly and all is well. I still have and wear my Ghost 14s, so we'll see how the current version compares when it's been broken in a bit. My foot measures a 7W, and I bought these in a 7.5W, which fit comfortably with a thinner sock. If you prefer thicker socks, you might consider a full size up if your foot is wider or higher volume.

I am very selective about my shoes. I can never find any that are perfect for me, but these are just about as close as I can find! I have 2 pairs and I switch up periodically. Both feel good on my feet.

Comfortable. Need more color choices in narrow width. A solid blue or red color would be nice. Gray only choice for quiet some time.

I really like the shoe, the only problem was that I developed achilles tendinitis in my right lower leg after a few days of wear. I don't know if the back of the shoe was rubbing against my achilles and caused it, after a few days of non-wear, my tendinitis resolved and I am able to wear shoes now.
