Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 16

I like the shoe but what would have made it perfect for me would have been better arch support.

I have been wearing Ghosts for years, but the 16 was unwearable because of the low toebox height. :(

Great shoe, easy to break in and feel comfy

Great style and comfortable

Love these shoes every pair of brooks Ghost has been great . The fit is exact They are comfy no break in time Cushioning is good . Adair price for the show .

I always purchase Glycerin. 13 pair and counting. I have 2 pair of Ghost. I can definitely tell the difference in comfort. The Ghost seems to be stiff and somewhat on the narrow side compared to the Glycerin, however I will continue to wear them in rotation

Love the shoe except for the shoestrings being too short. I have two pair of Ghost 14 shoes and the shoestrings are much longer.

Loved the Ghost 15 and swore by them my whole pregnancy working at that hospital, but I just cannot wear the Ghost 16 without arch and knee pain. I thought it might be just my body, but wore my new Adrenalines all day at work without any issue; wore the Ghosts the next day and had pain halfway through the day. I hate writing negative reviews, but there is just something about this shoe that doesn't agree with my foot!

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

I love them. I just wish the heel last a little longer. I run the heel down in a month.

They are great and very comfortable and make my workouts so good

First of allI love Brooks! My new Ghost 16 are very comfortable all day. So much so that I have to stop myself from buying more colors!

Love the color, but made my foot go to sleep. It is also short. I thought getting the extra wide would afford me the room I need. It was not quite enough, so it was returned. Too bad. I had Ghosts for several years now, but am going back to the Adrenaline. And if they keep on getting tighter, I will change brands.

I have religiously bought Brooks Ghosts since the Ghost 8. The Ghost 16 is the first in this line to give me incredibly sore feet and blisters on the inside ankle. There is very little arch support, the body of the shoe is narrow even in the medium-width, and there is less soft cushioning over all than the previous lines, and shoddier construction (random glue visible where the soles meet the body of the shoe).

Love Brooks Ghost and hoping to return to the brand with the next version. This one was too narrow in the toe box. Still trying to find an equivalent every day running shoe and missing the 15.

The construction and materials have changed in my last pair, which I returned. I have bought Brooks for years but I feel like I am going to find another brand. They felt like cardboard on my feet where they have felt like house slippers in the past. Also you have stopped carrying Peacoat and white.

Ive been wearing ghosts for years and they never disappoint. I dont run but I walk several miles a day. Very comfortable.

Ghost 15 is perfect. I wish you wouldn't keep changing the fit and styling. The 16 is not as sturdy as the 15. It runs larger. It gives less arch support. The 15 does not hit my ankle bone the 16 hits my ankle bone.

Best sneakers Ive ever had. Wide toe box, loads of cushion. I want another pair

I love these shoes !!! This is the first day to wear them and they are so comfortable ! great on my arches and heels . I really don't want to take them off . So glad my foot doctor told me about this ! I am on my 4th pair of Ghost . They keep making them more comfortable !

I'm a frequent Brooks Ghost buyer and just tried the 16- here are a few observations: - The shoe laces are SO much better- thank you thank you! please never use the Ghost 15 laces again :) - Unlike others, I have no ankle rubbing or issues - The 16s are very comfortable and have been great for walking so far - I do however feel like the sizing has changed and my consistent size for years is now feeling a bit too roomy (i'm curious to try a 1/2 size down) - I'm worried about the longevity of the mesh upper, it seems easily prone to rips (larger designed holes in the 16) and not very sturdy. No issues yet and hoping it stays that way!

Not the same feel as the ghost 15, different shaped toe box, seems narrower at the arch and rubs against the side of my foot. Doesnt seem to have the same front foot sole cushion as the 15s either. Disappointed overall. I have been a ghost runner for years with several models of the shoe and this one is the worst feel.

Too narrow for orthotics to sit flat in the arch area. And that was extra wide width.
