I like the old shoelaces that were rounded. I don't know why you had to start with the flat laces, don't like them bring back the old laces!

Very comfy out of the box but I'm finding this newer model is a bit tighter in the toe box and folds in a way that it hits the top of my toenail causing some discomfort.

Bought this in Jan 2023. I have ran 480 km with it mostly on training. I feel it is very comfortable with just enough cushioning. I have used it in the run on an olympic distance triathlon and it was fine getting totally wet. One con is the lace, have tendency to unravel. It is not like the elastic or stretchable lace that my other running shoes have. At 480 km, it is due for replacement. I feel it losing the right amount of firmness or cushioning at about 430 km. The lace also unravel more now. Maybe twice in a 1 hr run. Otherwise, it is a good training shoe. I would buy again and hope the lace has improved

They seem a little lower and slimmer than normal. Even in the wide width. Bring a little height back and add extra wide options for them if currently not available. Still a very comfortable shoe. One downside is I was caught running in the rain. The shoes became soaked and the insole would not stay in place and actually shrunk temporarily while I was still running.

I have ran in Brooks Ghost for 10 years! But unfortunately, this kind of Ghosts gave me blisters on my achilles. Super bummed about that! I returned them and now ordering the glycerin 22. I am happy Brooks lets you do a 90 trial and can return for free!

The toe box is noticeably fuller than the Ghost 14 and the heal cushioning feels more supportive. But I really wish that Brooks didn't provide only one color combination for the wide version of each model - it's so rarely the one I would have chosen.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks Ghost is one of a very few truly neutral running shoes in a wide width.

I had the 14's and this was a good choice to stay with the Ghost line. They provide the right amount of cushion as well as speed for indoor and outdoor running, as well as support for working in the gym. The foot bed is a little wide for me in the regular width, but tighten up the laces and I'll be fine. Would recommend!

Did a few runs in the ghosts 15. Much more cushion and support than I'm use too, makes my knees and hips feel good. No blisters. Great for running but I do find it hard to do strength and balance work in them. Brooks is a generous company though; it was easy to return my original pair and size down even though I ran twice in them.

The toe box on this year's model is slightly smaller than previous years. I probably could go up a half a size and it would be a better fit. My left big toe keeps hitting the end of the shoe and I've never had the issue before with these shoes. Otherwise they are comfortable and my feet are happy.

Cute! I get so many compliments! Otherwise, fits well and is comfy. I will say as someone who wears down shoes quickly due to be heavy footed, a little more cushion would be appreciated to make the shoe last longer.

Great runnning walking shoes but 1) even wides squeeze you after 4mo of wear 2) quality way down from prior styles, rubber starts peeling top/bottom after 4mo and mesh tearing.

I've been a size 8.5 ghost runner for the last 3 or 4 years, but the sizing on the 15 is bigger than all my previous versions. My foot felt sloppy as there is way too much room in the toe box. I had to exchange the 8.5 and will try an 8. Hope that resolves the issue otherwise I'll have to go back to what's left of the 8.5s in the Ghost 14

I loved my Ghost 14's so I had high hopes for the Ghost 15. However, I found that it felt very stiff when I first put it on. I remember putting on the 14's and loving them instantly, so I just thought that these were made somewhat differently and they would not "soften" with wear. I returned them. Disclaimer: I am not a runner, just someone who likes good shoes.

I've been a Brooks Ghost fan for years. My 13s were my favorite. The toebox is narrower in the Ghost 15 so I chose wide width to accommodate my bunion based on prior reviews. They fit great and are comfortable. Would have given 5 stars but color choice in wide is disappointing. Please offer the same colors in wide as standard width.

These felt good on the treadmill. Not enough cushion for street runs Sizing runs a little big. I typically wear womens 9 in Nike. The 9's in these were too big. 8.5 would've been good

I decided to size up half a size for more room in the toe box. Previous 13 ghost seemed to be wider than these.

I am a longtime Ghost fan, except the 13 model. The Ghost 15 runs much wider than previous versions. I usually wear a wide width but am keeping the 8 regular because it has plenty of room. Please come out with a white version with some gray/oyster or silver accents.

Same great style as before but they lost something in the comfort category. These are pretty firm in the footbed compared to previous models. These make you feel like you want yo go back to the Ghost 12 which was a very comfortable shoe. Maybe these will break in more, not sure. We will see. Zappos service is second to none. Ordered these shoes one day and got them the next!

I have worn many pairs of Brooks Ghost and have always been happy. But the support and contour of the Ghost 15 is not the same. Very disappointed ?

I love the look but I thought my feet would be more comfortable due to the ratings and the high price tag. I finish my work shift with achy feet

I loved the Ghost 14. They fit my foot perfectly. I could no longer find any in my size, so I gambled that the Ghost 15 would be the same or similar enough, maybe even better! But something changed on the Ghost 15 in regards to where the arch hits my foot. These shoes are not as good (for me) as the 14's and I am slightly disappointed that I can feel a slight discomfort when I run. I wanted to love them! The color/style was beautiful.

I already own a pair of Ghosts that have worked well. Ordered a second pair as the first was wearing out. The 2nd pair fit completely differently, much looser in the toe box to the extent that I had the laces cinched about 1/4" tighter on top and foot still had movement. Not great quality control to have this much variation in fit across two pairs of the exact same shoe. Ended up returning them.
