Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 16

Lovelovelove the Ghost series! I've been wearing them since version 7. I have at least a dozen pairs that are currently in my rotation. Would like to see some nice blues being used. I'm always waiting for the special edition options, the blue camos were really great. Perfect fitting shoes, durable, breathable, washable, comfortable....... I don't wear anything else!!!!!!!

I have worn Brooks shoes for years and have worn the Ghost shoes, but this new Ghost shoe is awful. I have so much pain in my right heel when I wear them. I finally put on an old Ghost shoe and walked and the heel pain went away. So, it is this shoe. I also have leg pain when I walk and after 6 months of this I realize it is my shoes. I dont know what they have changed, but I am pretty sure I am going to find another brand. It has been painful walking in these.

Let me tell you! I have been through so so many sneakers, and never was happy! My feet always hurt ! But I went to my foot doctor, he advised me to buy these type of sneakers. And I am so happy that I bought them so comfortable , feet do not hurt no more. Thanks to brooks sneaks. Best ever!

I don't like it that they are a lot wider in the front and the middle and back are not. It would be nice if they weren't as wide in the front Plus when I walk they wrinkle up on the side.

My first pair of Brooks Ghost were the 14s in a womens 13. Fit perfect, I have a narrow foot and its hard to find a womens shoe in my size let alone narrow. I had been an ASICS Kayano user for over 20 years. They went the HOKA route and are super wide now and no stability. So after trying out the Ghost I was sold. HOWEVER, the Ghost 16s I just received in a womens 13 are very short (my toe was just at the end) and they are wider than the Ghost 14s so Im NOT a fan of the Ghost 16. The sole felt comfortable though. Not sure if I got a defective pair. I havent seen others comment that theyre running short. Sadly these will be sent back. The hunt continues.

I'm not a runner, but have trouble with my feet and I can wear these with no foot pain.

The shoelaces are too short; however, I really like the shoes

Have worn the Ghost for over 9 years for the comfortable toe box and great support for my 5 mile daily walk, a new one or two pair each year. Still good there but the heal seems wider and hits my heal a bit higher. Even tightening the laces does not solve the width issue. The arch also seems stiffer and not quite as comfortable. Still a good shoe but not the normal 5 stars for me.

I wore pairs of Ghost 14 & 15s for 3 years because I had found "the shoe". They fit well, supported my foot correctly, and looked good. Now they changed the model and it actively hurts my feet to walk or run. They're also way uglier. Extremely disappointing.

These are my go to shoes for walking. Ive tried other brands and always come back to Brooks. The Ghost model is definitely the best shoe for me!

Great fit - wore them to gym and the entire day and were very comfortable -actually liked color better when I put them on - staff very helpful - so far I have 3 pairs of Brooks

I got these for my girlfriend as a gift, (shes a cna and has been needing new shoes but hasnt actually gotten any yet) and she loves them! I originally ordered a 9 but they were a little small and the return was super easy! Then I quickly ordered a 9.5 and they arrived in no time. They fit perfect now. Very very pleased with everything.

The most comfortable running shoe Ive ever owned!!

I loved my Ghost 15s. It was my go-to sneaker. I was due to buy a new pair, only to find they discontinued them and replaced them with Ghost 16. Firstly, the design makes them look and feel cheap. Second, they do not fit the same. I never needed a break in time with my 15s but these feel very stiff and uncomfortable. Its really disappointing and frustrating because Im having issues with my upper back/shoulders and neck due to the shoes not having the same feel as my 15s.

Although I still love my ghost 16s I was much happier with the ghost 15s. The materials they used were of better quality and it ensured an all day comfort. Please listen to many customers who have taken their time to write a review and maybe change them back to what was working for so many loyal customers. Ive tried many other shoes brooks has to offer and cant find one that fits like the ghost 15s.

The shoe seems well made. I loved the styling and the color. Unfortunately, it was too narrow in the toe box for my foot, even though I do not have wide feet, so I had to return them. I replaced them with the Glycerin 21, which I am enjoying so much I ordered a second pair. As suggested on Brooks website I ordered 1/2 size bigger than what I normally wear.

Perf! Fits great, looks great, feels great.

The shoe is too narrow (I typically have a narrow foot) and the padding on the back left ankle is rolling and lumpy.

Been running for 47 yrs & have been wearing each model of Ghost through the years. The Ghost 16 rocks!! Upgrade in many areas from the 15's. Read numerous negative reviews before trying them on today. Lesson learned. NEVER go by negative reviews. We're all different. I'd give these 10 stars if possible.

The Ghost 16 womens is like the Wish version of the 14 and 15 (which I loved). Even though I ordered up a half size based on reviews, they pinched the top of my big toes all day long. I have a very narrow foot and have never had this trouble with a shoe before. The material feels cheaper and overall Im super disappointed because the ghosts have been my favorite for the last few years and now Im not sure what shoe Ill wear everyday at my fast paced job. Plus I had a hard time getting behind the colors.

I have been wearing the Ghost 15 for several years and find the very comfortable. The Ghost 16 does not have as much cushion as the 15 and it does not fit as comfortablely either. So, the shoe is just okay.
