The shoe felt great but after 2 months the insole of the shoe came off. Now I need to figure a way to keep it in or buy new shoes. I definitely can't run with the insole pushing back up to my ankle. Very disappointed.

I have always bought ghost 13. I do not like the ghost 15s at all. Very disappointed

I have worn Ghosts for as long as I can remember. I ordered the same size as always but when they arrived they were very long. They were like wearing ski's. I was very disappointed and sent them back.

The Ghost 13s were better. These don't have enough cushion or support.

I'm very disappointed. I don't feel any cushion and it feels like my feet weigh 5 pounds each. I wish I hadn't worn them outside so I could have returned them.

I always buy the same shoe size however when I get these they didn't fit. They're tight everywhere and super uncomfortable.

Not the quality I have to come expect from Brooks. I had 2 14,s which did not live up to expectations due to the sick tearing in the back on both. I have switched to the beast that still has the fabric in the very center back the Ghost 12 has. By the way I say has because my Ghost 12s still perform and outlived the Ghost 14.

Feels too awkward and definitely not for pronating feet. Also the light purple in the picture came in as a dark purple. The color is misleading. Sent back due to color discrepancy.

In past years I think I've purchased 3 or 4 Ghost 14's, and with everyone, as soon as I wore them for the first time, my left knee pain went away. I walk daily, and after about 3-4 months, I would begin to feel left knee pain. I also really appreciated that this shoe was offered in a 4E width, which is difficult to find in walking shoes. So, after I started to develop left knee pain, I went to order the Ghost 14, and found that it was not available in a 4E in any color, so I ordered a Ghost 15. I did not experience the left knee pain disappear on day 1 or any day since then. So, while they may be an ok pair of walking shoes, they are no long the 5 star shoes that I used to wear.

Do not fit as comfortable as the ghost 14. I returned them for credit.

I've bought three pairs of Brooks ghost running shoes and they all have developed holes in the fabric where my pinky toe is on both shoes. I sent in pictures to see if they had a warranty and was told that I bought shoes that weren't wide enough. I've bought 3 pairs of brooks shoes; ghost 12, 13, and 14. I'm pretty sure I know what size of shoe I wear. If three pairs of shoes have all done the same thing I don't honk it's an issue with my feet I think it's a quality issue with the shoes. It's not like I wear them everyday all day either. I bought the last pair for nursing school and they barely lasted a year and that was with me eating them to clinicals 2 days a week for 12 hours at a time. I wore them for a total of 360 hours that's three semesters and doing 120 hours of clinicals each semester. I already left a review but apparently Brooks won't let me leave a bad review. It was never posted and they said they would get back to me after investigating further. Never happened

Poor quality and cheap feel. Toe box in the 15 is so narrow now that my foot hangs over the sole on both sides. And where did the cushioning go? My year-old used 14s have more cushion left than a new pair of 15s. Hoping the 16 will correct these issues.

I love them! I am Irish and it was fun to wear my Kelly green Brooks with 4 leaf clover on St.Paddy's day! I love the ghost shoes. I have another pair of them. I don't run in them, but I do wear them to work with my scrubs Great shoe very comfortable.

These are so cute, and I’ve long been a fan of the ghosts. Not sure why they started changing them after the 12, but while these are cute, they are majorly uncomfortable, gave me blisters, and my feet are sore two days later after only four miles in them. Thank you Zappos for your excellent customer service!

I've been wearing ghosts for over ten years and this is the first pair that I am unhappy with. They changed something with the shoe, they fit differently. The shoe feels bigger/ the mesh feels looser to where I have to tie them so tight the top of my feet hurt. I've given them about 4 weeks to try and unfortunately my opinion isn't changing. I've resorted to wearing my old ghosts and I'll be returning the 15s.

I ordered nightlife/black/ebony shoe. I was expecting them to be yellow the way they look in the pictures.
They are a flo yellow instead

So disappointed. This is the worst ghost yet. This essentially is the adrenaline. It feels clunky and heavy, not pillowy like it used to. The insole presses into my arch. The toe box feels extra big and square now, not sleek like before. The color options are the only positive.

I adore those shoes but I gave 1 star because of the color choices. All color combinations are terrible! I wish so much to buy them but they don't match with anything so I can't (that's why 1 star).
Can your designer team work on that issue please? Who chose those colors? There is not 1 I can choose! I don't want to buy other just black color.
Super disappointed!

Lol what are these?? If I wanted a narrow, tapered shoe, I'd buy that other popular running shoe brand. I have always bought Brooks because of the narrow heel and wide toe box, which is brilliant for long runs. The 14s were bad, but these are terrible. Come back, 13s.

The ghost has gone downhill since the 13. Both the 14 and 15 are not supportive and left my feet feeling awful after wearing them for a short time. The 12's and 13's had no break in time and were my go-to shoes for everything. I was hopeful that the 14 was just a mistake that Brooks would fix but alas the 15 followed suit. If anyone has recommendations for a shoe to the 12 and 13 I'm on the hunt! Until Brooks goes back to its roots I'll have to buy my shoes elsewhere :(

Not as cushioned as I'd have thought..not as good arch support as I'd have hoped..and a little too roomy for me especially in the toe box area..Not what I hoped for. I in no way have especially high arches or a narrow foot and this shoe did disappoint.

I have been running in this brand and model shoe for more than 5 years. They have totally redesigned the shoe and it is nothing like it was.
