I have been a faithful Ghost for wearer for years but I don't find these as comfortable. The stitching in the tongue kind of digs into the top of my foot and the tongue overall seems to be made of thinner material, again making it less comfortable. I feel like the quality is lacking from previous models.

These are not as comfortable as the Ghost 14. They do what the Glycerins do on me. When I step, the cushion compresses and the shoe slides up the back of my heel. I ordered a brand new pair of 14s and they do not do this. I don't know if a different size would help.

I bought every single color of the Ghost 6, and haven't been a fan since. This shoe didn't present as nice in person as it does on pics. The color combo isn't very pretty in person. That small hot pink stripe on sole is blaring loud in person. The shoe ran tight and the sole didn't have much cushion for me. I prefer a more cushioned shoe for walking/standing.

The toe box is narrow by the pink toes. The shoe bed is slippery I feel like my foot is constantly slipping forward.
I like the cushion, it's like the 14. I hope these 15 hold
Up better then the 14

This Ghost 15 does not feel as supportive as previous Ghost models. The midsole feels softer. In addition, it feels 1/2 size larger.

My feet feel very confined in the Ghost 15.... I had the Ghost 13 until now and I was more comfortable.
Thank you

Very comfortable for 12 hour shifts in Healthcare setting. I gave 3 vs 5 because the color online of the spa blue is not accurate to what they look like in person. Online it appears to be a green/blue in person they are almost white appearing with a hint of blue. Week one and the top is already dirty looking. I wish I chose a different color.

So disappointed in the Ghost 15. It is a great looking shoe, but unfortunately I experienced lateral foot pain after a short time wearing. Full disclosure, I have a tendency towards achilles tendonitis and lateral foot pain if my foot isnt supported exactly right. Had to return.

I loved the fit, they came in a narrow which most places do not make, I wish you made more colors. However, these are not supportive for my body, you can fold them in half

Disappointed! I loved my 13's so much that I wore holes into them. I heard mediocre reviews about the 14's so I held out for the 15's. What a disappointment. The uppers feel almost stiff, and there is way too much room in the mid foot and toe area. However, compared to the 13's, the sole is actually narrower. This made for a loose, unstable feel. I ended up going with a completely different brand. Brooks, if it's not broke, don't fix it.

I was so excited to see the Ghost 15's come out that I automatically pre-ordered two pairs. Mainly because I love the new design. Personal preference but wasn't a huge fan of the Ghost 14 design. Anyway, even though I love the design of the 15s, sadly I'm not a fan of the comfort. I have planters facitis and rely on my Brooks Ghosts to make it feel better and more bearable. The 15s do not accomplish that. My heel actually hurts when wearing them where the other Ghosts I own do not. The 3 stars is for the design. I'm actually contemplating whether not to return the 2 pair I ordered. I wish the comfort of the 12s and 13s would come back. Also want to note, for some reason I find the laces on these come undone easily. Yes I can double knot them but the other series I never had to and the tongue part of the 15s feels tighter than normal. I hate sounding so negative on Brooks Ghost shoes because it is all I wear and swear by. Hoping most people love them!

The shoes look great and have plenty of cushion which is nice for working on your feet. My only complaints are that there is limited arch support and that the shoes run wide and large which changes the way I have to walk in them.

I have been waiting for the 15s to come out for months. I was a bit disappointed in the color options, but I reluctantly ordered the blue/dark grey/pink ones. I have always worn a 9.5 in Ghosts, so I ordered a 9.5 in these. They are much bigger! I also don't love how bright the pink laces are, but that's just a personal preference. I will be returning for the size issue. I might just go back to the 14s.

After a couple of months of normal casual wear - not running- the insole started slipping out of place making the shoe unwearable. This is the only model DD has worn for 6+ years and this is the first time it’s happened. If it happens again we will have to switch. Too expensive for this defect to be tolerated.

Great but I am on my feet all day and have plantar fasciitis and I thought these would help. Unfortunately, they did not. My feet hurt after long hours standing.

Ordered the same sneakers as I had for a few years, however it felt very different. After i read reviews, turns out it’s not just me but the actual sneakers run big.

These are my 7th pair of Ghosts. Unfortunately, there is something wildly different about these in comparison. I began having plantar fasciitis the first time after I wore them. They are much less “pillowy” compared to my previous Ghosts. I returned and exchanged for the Ghost Max, which seems to be helping things settle down a bit. I walk over 10,000 steps a day as a teacher and get about 3 miles in after school with my ghosts so it is important to not be in pain. The style was cute, however.

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.
