I've worn 5-6 different versions of Ghosts. I had to return these shoes. The inside of both toe boxes got creased and was digging in my big toe.
I did like the updated heel/Achilles cushioning.

They seem larger than a normal 9.5, I may return them.

Why did Brooks change the fit to be longer? It's not even about more room in the toe box - they are just longer. The Ghost series has been my go to for years, but the Ghost 15s just don't fit the same.

Not a fan too stiff and one shoe was slightly damaged upon arrival and the shoe laces r way too short

They feel comfortable but they hurt my feet. I feel like I have plantar fasciitis and my ankles are killing me

I ordered the Coral/Black/Blue and it is WAY MORE neon that the photo shows. People tell me all day that they look like a construction cone and that I could flag traffic. These are not really coral at all. They are very orange.

After a lot of research on the web I really thought the ghost 15 would relieve my plantar fasciitis at least a little bit but there was really no change

Not good running shoes for me. I should have stayed with the glycerin. The ghost hurt my feet.

Did not enjoy the "road feel" in these - felt like I was running on blocks of wood strapped to my feet. Probably just me. I love Brooks, and will continue to purchase from them, just not this pair of shoes.

I was hoping to order the Ghost 14 in 9 Wide, but Zappos didn't offer it in Wide. So I opted for the Ghost 15 in 9W. But the toe box is narrower making the shoe uncomfortable for me. I will be returning them.

I much prefer the ghost 13 for comfort and the quality of the upper shoe

Shoes fit great. But the photo online they look gray and black. When I received them they were white and black. Where I work at the white won't stay clean.

As others have said, the new Brooks Ghost 15 provides no arch support, unlike past Ghost models. Very disappointed. These used to be my go-to walking shoes. I hope Brooks gets the message to bring back arch support in future models.

The Ghost 15 is not as absorbent as the Ghost 14 and earlier versions. I held them up side by side and you can easily see that the cushion is smaller on the 15 than the 14. I've run in the 15's three times now, and could feel the difference (sorer legs/joints); the 15's are now my "only on the treadmill" shoes. Disappointing, as I've been running in Brooks' Ghosts for years. I hope they return to the same level of cushion and support they used to have.

Outsole is excessively wearing after a 100 miles on sidewalks and light gravel trails. Outsole appears not to be very durable.

I returned these. I love Ghosts and Brooks but I reallllllly do not like the color choices they have for the wide shoe runner. I tried. I really wanted to like these but allllll the fun colors are for the regular show wearer. Sigh. I bought Hokas instead

Love the color pattern, hate the heel support, I feel like this is a step down from the 14. Of course the fit is great but these aren't anything special and I can't wear insoles with them because the material makes a squeaking noise I've never encountered with any other pair.

Destroyed my feet. I'm 6' 2" and 240 lbs. This shoe felt like there was zero support or stability. Developed plantar fasciitis on the first 3 mile walk and went downhill from there. Way too much flex in tge midsole and the shoe rolls like you are walking on marshmallows. 25 miles on these and I am done.

Loved the colors on the ones I purchased but something is different with the arch area. I'm not sure they are as cushy as my 13's. I returned them and got 14's instead but would much prefer my 13's again. A lil disappointed.

Narrow? Not even close. My Ghost 14s in medium width fit more snugly than the 15s. Seems like all they did was slap a narrow label on the mediums and call it a day. If you have narrow feet, keep looking.

Very uncomfortable. I wanted a cushiony. This shoe has no cushion. My feet feel like they are swimming around and sweaty. I will be buying Brooks brand any longer. I'm looking for something different.
