I liked my new Ghost 15s. They make me feel fast. I feel fast when I wear them. Fast like the wind. Sometimes I get going so fast that I feel like I am going to trip. I am glad that I don't trip because if I did, that could be deadly.....because I was going so fast. I don't know if the scientists at Brooks thought about this potential point of liability. It'd be pretty bad for them if a bunch of people get messed up cause they got to going too fast and tripped.

Very comfortable with lots of cushioning! Also, very comfortable around the ankles because sometimes I don't like to wear socks.

Brooks Ghost 15 in WHITE, EBONY, OYSTER.. truly is the best shoe I have ever put on my feet. I'm so impressed I'm struggling to come up with words to describe this awesome shoe, but I will. If you are hesitating because of price or because of any non-favorable review, I encourage you to press the buy button and watch your life change. I'll tell you why.
Trying to find a sneaker that could replace my most comfortable Puma Enzo sneaker I have four pairs of and they're all getting a bit worn, has been quite frustrating, to say the least. I have returned three different pairs of various brands of sneakers and am glad I did. They were the bunk bed of comfort and not the memory foam bed at the Hampton Inn, Hilton, etc. I always wear these plastic inserts that were made for my fee because they make every shoe so very comfy. I can tell you right now I am wearing my usual cotton socks and NO insert with my Ghose 15 and it's actually better than the inserts, I hate to admit that and will save them for other shoes but not for the Ghost 15.
I have never felt shoe comfort near what the Ghost 15 provides, it is amazing, with the perfect cushioning in the heel as well as stability without you thinking about it, lacing helps make the midfoot sit perfectly and not move around and my toes, well, let's just say they are the happiest they've been in probably ten years. I wear a size 6 women's and this has always been my size, easy to find shoes in size 6 and I have no other requirements other than the shoe not to be stiff. The Ghost 15 leaves room for my toes to casually feel roomy, not too big, not too spacious, and perfect for stretching out your toes if they're tired, yet they will certainly never be cramped in this shoe unless you have unusually big giant toes, some people do, no big deal.
At first, they seems a little loose, and I tied the shoes again because there was too much lace loose, and I was hoping so much to not return these,...And I chose to use the extra lace hole #7 which hides politely closer to my ankle and under the top 6th lace hole. OMG that was exactly the answer to having these shoes fit perfectly and I don't even think about them when I'm wearing them. The Ghose 15 and I are one, and I love them. There is extra support fabric in white around where the laces insert, I love them, look awesome and create more assurance this shoe will last.
The Color WHITE/EBONY/OYSTER is fantastic! The sole on the sides is mostly black with a white stripe above it, and the sole grips show up as another white stripe on the sides. The main shoe is oyster, I suppose but to me, it just looks like a soft white and the silver-gray laces match so well. I love that the laces are not too heavy and thick, so they are so easy to lace! The decorative Brooks Swoosh and lining on the tongue and heel areas remind me of gray camo, but more like sporty street icons for athletes. The fabric is very supportive and soft at the same time. Yes, I know conflicting terms, yet the shoe has easy toe movement as the foot goes toward the back and the way the fabric is made holds it all in place. Also, the fabric is vented so your feet don't heat up and just before the heel is more vented areas,... vented meaning small openings in the weave to allow air exchange. I don't have sweaty feet, but this will come as an advantage to those that do have this issue.
At first, I was hesitant to purchase this shoe, but after watching some YOUTUBE videos about it, and reading some opinions in reviews, I strongly agree you won't find another shoe to compete with this. Buy this and walk around inside your house, I think you will be impressed. If not quite, then re-lace them carefully and consider that extra #7 lace hole, it made everything perfect. These shoes could be worn even when you want to wear some fancier clothes, the Ghose 15 has a great design in so many ways. Gosh, I'm so happy!. Thank you, Zappos! Thank you, Brooks!

It's no wonder The Ghost is the perfect neutral shoe for so many people. Brooks focus is on running/ walking. And they continue to provide a great product at a reasonable price.

These shoes are so comfortable, they're like wearing clouds on your feet! I've been buying Brooks Ghost shoes for 6 years now and am always happy with them. They fit well and maintain their comfort over the long haul. The only thing I'm not too keen on is the shoe laces on the latest ones I purchased. Every pair I've purchased before has sturdy, round laces that never break. The ones I just bought, the red/white/blue style, has thin, flat laces that feel like they can easily break. They look great with the shoes as they are white with red stars but just seem flimsy; although they haven't broken yet. It's just something different I noticed about this pair.

I believe the Ghost line is the most comfortable pair of shoes Brooks offers. The Adrenaline line is still good. But Ghosts are superior.

Brooks sneakers give great support especially to my knees. My knees always feel much better when I get a new pair of Brooks sneakers.

These are comfortable!!! I've been sticking with the Ghost line for sometime now. These fit and feel good. No issues. The fit and width are true to size. I mainly walk in them and I've had no complaints so far. The support seems good to me.

These shoes are an absolute Godsend! This is my second pair of Ghosts. I usually wear them on the treadmill. I just bought another pair for outdoor runs. I hiked 20 miles (and I am not in shape) last weekend with my brand new pair of Brooks Ghost 15s that I purchased initially to be 5K ready. I decided not to wear my hiking boots and opted for these instead. I had zero foot pain and no blisters (and I come home after a 12 hour shift with foot pain regularly). I cannot say enough about these shoes. I am a forever customer.

I'm not a runner but I buy Brooks because it's the only shoe that is comfortable! I buy the Pride shoes to show support for people that love who they love.

These have been my favorite running shoes. I got the Run Proud version which I love even better than my regular Ghost 15s. The reason is the top of the shoe is sturdy. Most running shoes have mesh on top that lets in air, but is also is vulnerable to holes. I am so tired of running shoes getting holes in them because my toes like to push against the top, so these feel like they were made for me. I really wish Brooks would consider this in the future when designing shoes. At least give us options of a canvas/leather top instead of just mesh. Also I love the colors and the theme!

I don't run. But I had plantar facilities and my doctor told me to get Brooks shoes. They help tremendously. I am 71 years old and love these shoes. I love the new colors and designs. I always get ghost. They have more room in the toes.

I love the Ghost 15, especially the thicker padding vs. the 14. The shoe is much more comfortable and springy as a result.
