Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 16

I have been wearing Brooks Ghost since Ghost 5, so I can say that there have been good years and bad years. Ghost 15 was really cheap and wore out after 3 months. Ghost 16 may have a little more padding, but it definitely runs 1/2 size short. If I were to size up 1/2, the arch support would be way off. The toe box is cramped. The materials still feel cheap and the support still does not feel like typical Ghost support. 3 months is way too short for the price! I have narrow heels and Brooks is the only brand that fits my feet perfectly, so I hope they can get their act back together very soon!

LOVE

Sized a full size larger since they are my walking shoes. That works for me. Great cushion and support. Look nice on, not too wide or long. Attractive!!

The Ghost model has always been comfortable right out of the box for me. The Ghost is my favorite because it is so light weight while still providing support. I have tried other Brooks shoes when I simply wanted a different color, but the fit was NOT the same.

Like the cushion feel when walking. Nice look on foot. Not so bulky looking like my Hokas, which I also like.

This is my second pair of Ghost 16 shoes. They hold up really well. I usually wear a wide width shoe, but in these I can go standard width. My only wish is that Brooks would come out with some new color combinations, as a long time Ghost wearer, I need some new options.

Liked the cushion and support. I loved the color. It’s been years since I purchased new brooks ghost shoes but am glad I have returned.

Love this Ghost 16 fit! This is the 2nd pair I have purchased. The toe box is a bit roomier than Ghost 15, which is great for running and walking in comfort. I have a toe fusion and these shoes are the only ones that are comfortable and supportive for my foot.

Love these brooks tenners.

Bought these last year for my daughter and bought her another pair this year. She absolutely loves them. They. are very comfy. They are now out of stock and I hope that this style is not discontinued. I would definitely buy them again for her.

These shoes are the Brooks that I am used to! Great feel and great fit. Love them. The only complaint I have is I wish Zappos would not use the post office to deliver their products…..takes much longer to receive my shoes now.

I have bunion issues on one foot. Brooks Ghost in wide are my go-to shoe for walking and daily wear.

There were so many negative reviews about this generation of Ghost - it was off-putting. I sized down when they first came out based on those which I shouldn't have and ordered a 7.5 which was too short and tight. I typically wear a 7-7.5 street shoe and an 8 in Brooks. The size 8 fits really well and I much prefer this generation to the Ghost 15 which I thought was a bit too wide and long. How nice they are on sale now! I ordered the peacoat/raspberry - good color combo. I bought these for walking - I put in the miles daily and these are really comfortable for me.

Love these! Definitely order half size larger.

I loved the Ghost 15, I wish that they wouldn’t mess with a good thing! In Brooks Ghost 15, I wear a size 10. For Ghost 16, I ordered a size 10 but it’s slightly short. So, I ordered a 10.5 to compare. I’m returning the size 10 and keeping the 10.5. I feel that the shoes run a little narrow which is good for me, my foot is narrow, with laces there is room for adjustment. I’m hopeful that I will love the Ghost 16, size 10.5 as much as the Ghost 15. I’ve worn them in the house but not yet for a long walk.

Like walking on clouds!! Love these, buying another pair now. Worth the $$!!

I overall and very satisfied with the feel of the shoe. It it very hard to find narrow shoes that truly have a narrow fit. I run 40-50mi weeks on average, so this is a perfect trainer for me.

I wear Brooks Ghost all the time. Nice to get a pure black shoe on the prior model/ season close out. Arrived very fast and shoe looks great and fits well. I put “true to size” but I always buy one size up in this shoe from my street shoes.

Very comfortable shoe, and I was glad to find that the Ghost 16 feels as good as the 14 and 15 do.

I love Brooks sneakers. Usually wear adrenaline but I thought I would try Ghost 16 not disappointed

The absolute best running shoe.

Great fit, very comfortable!

As usual the Ghost shoe by Brooks does not disappoint. So cushiony and supportive. The only thing different from other years is the shoe seems wider - the toe box is roomy. That's not a real bad thing but it does make my feet look wide. But, hey, my feet are happy and that's all that counts.

Not sure why the low rating here, highly rated on Wirecutter. I was into the barefoot/flat shoe trend but did a number on my feet after a lot of walking. After researching anything but Hokas, I ordered these in a wide, half size larger than normal, and the fit and feel are perfect and look great with anything. Wearing them constantly.

I had to size up a full size, but I am quite happy with the fit. The arch support is is okay, I have high arches and could use a little more…
