Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 16

Bought them for my wife, she loves them!!!

Loved the fit. Oyster color looked dirty out of the box. Returned the shoes. Disappointed that I could not find a color I liked in my size.

The toe box is tighter and stiffer than my previous pairs of Ghosts.

I loved how these shoes fit in store. They were true to size and had just the right amount of cushion and support for shorter runs. I wanted to continue loving these, however on any run over 1 mile they cause such bad blisters in the arch that I can't continue. I don't get this when I walk, so they've become my new walking shoes rather than in my rotation for runs.

I have the Ghost 14 and Ghost 15 which fits perfectly in size 9. I recently purchased the Ghost 16 in a size 9 and they are too short. Very disappointed!

I have always loved Brooks shoes. Butthe laces have become shorter and harder to stay tied. Why are they shorter? Id also like to see the toe area fabric better to withstand big toe holes! They are very comfortable, lightweight and supportive.

Love the color, but they make the sides of my feet ache

I was very impressed with the few easy tests you had me do when I ordered my first pair of Brooks (online) to determine which styles would best custom fit my foot. The Ghost fits perfectly and I love the comfort and improved ease on my body when I walk. I had used the same Nike shoe for 40+ years for running distance races and in more recent years, due to hip and knee problems, walking. I thought it was my perfect shoe. This past year I tried 3 other highly recommended brands and they were okay, but not quite right. The change to a Brooks Ghost has surpassed my expectations. Thank you!

very uncomfortable right from the start...I sent them back

I love this shoe. Im thinking about buying another

I have two pairs of Ghost 14's and a pair of Ghost 15's which I love. The 16's are not nearly as comfortable and are very tight around the top of my foot.

I'm a fast walker and their plenty of cushion built into the shoe. My feet are comfortable from being to the end. LOVE THESE SHOES

This pair is for my husband. He is a serious life-time runner and says these are like running on clouds. Very helpful on road runs. Also very good response/feel on trail runs. He says they are an excellent running shoe that help him go fast with no fatigue. He likes the overall fit and color combo.

great fit, comfortable, lightweight. the laces could be a bit longer I use all the lace holes to prevent my foot from sliding forward and the laces are just barely long enough. otherwise great for walking and running.

The Ghost lineup is my favorite and the 16 is perfection! These shoes are comfortable for long runs. They fit well and have a roomy toe box, so my feet are happy! They have just the right amount of cushion.

Great as always! I loved that this pair came with two pairs of laces. Comfortable, flexible and supportive.

Ive been wearing these for a couple weeks and thought it was just me but I think they are too small. My toes hurt when I wear them. Other than that, I love them. Ill have to get a bigger size

Brooks are the only athletic shoes I own but Ghost have been my favorite style. I started with the 13s and I have several pairs of 14s in rotation. IMO, the 16s are a lot like the Glycerin 20s I own which are wider, a little heavier and a bit clunky compared to the 14s. Dont get me wrong, Brooks quality still is great and these are comfy and dont need a break in period. Ive only had them a couple weeks so still getting used to them but Im still a fan!

Love these shoes; same sizing, quality, features as before!!

Fits like a glove; comfy for my morning runs with just enough cushioning. The width is perfect for me. This is my third or fourth pair of ghost running shoes, which I replace about once a year.

I've loved the Ghost style for several years now and as much as I didn't want to switch from the Ghost 14 to a newer model, I was not disappointed with the Ghost 16 at all. Love the fit and feel!! I loved it so much, I ordered a second pair the next week!! Light weight and so comfortable! Holds up well for walking (probably for running too but I'm not a runner, although I did sprint across the supermarket parking lot to catch my runaway cart and the Ghost 16 worked fine!!). One note, I do size up half a size for the Brooks Ghost 16, which makes it a perfect fit, hence I've said it runs small!

I've been buying Ghost for years. So confortable, supportive and durable. I bought two pairs. The only running shoes that don't slide off my heels! Only thing is i had tried on many pairs that had defects before I ordered them directly from the online store. There seems to be a quality control issue.

Very comfortable lots of room in the toe box. Light weight. Not too soft for a long run. Just right.

These shoes fit my foot perfect! Love them!

This is my third generation of Brooks Ghost. Started with the Ghost 14s that got me THROUGH a trip to Disney World. I was the only person in our group without foot pain! Love the 16s just as much. Recently started running again after a long break and these shoes are amazing. Highly recommend!
