Not as good as the ghost 15 and the color options are never good with the ghost.

I'm a walker, not a runner. Toe box is extremely roomy even for Brooks, my toes are swimming. This is a cream colored shoe, I personally would not buy in a dark color with the white sides at the bottom.

I'm a long time Ghost wearer and the sizing and general fit continue to be consistent moving front old to newer model (in this case from the 15 to the 16). However, the tongue on the 16 gets quite bunchy, and I feel like there's less forefoot cushioning. Unlike previous Ghosts I immediately blistered in the first week wearing these. Overall great style, love the slightly springy laces.

Love these shoes. From the first time I put them on I had less back and knee pain. My feet are comfortable all day long

I wear my Ghost 16 for everyday activities and walking. I love the support it gives me and the cushioning is excellent. Ive been wearing Ghosts for 5 years and love their comfort.

I have been wearing Ghost since Ghost 13 when I was fitted at Runners High in Miami. I wish the newer shoes used the same shoe strings! The new Ghost 16 has a tongue issue. It crimps when I put the shoe on and I have to keep straightening it. My older shoes do not do that. I thought you should know that and that is why I didnt give the shoes a 5 star rating this time. I love your shoes though and the fit is great for my wide feet.

Im a 61 yr old woman you had total hip replacement surgery eight months ago and started exercising again and Im walking 2.5 miles every day.

Disappointed in the Ghost 16. My last Ghost was the 14, which I purchased because it was a good fit for my narrow foot. The toe box in the 16 is larger, making a smooth run more difficult. Testing out different brands for a replacement.

Wow! I am so impressed with this shoe! Ive been wearing the Glycerine for years and just tried the Ghost. Im a regular runner, and this shoe is lighter and and perfect fit! I went with the wide, and it is the most comfortable shoe Ive ever worn! Highly recommend!

Love, love, love these shoes! I have a pair of the Ghost 15 and while they are great, I prefer the shape of the 16. Im very happy with them.

The Ghost 16 has a wider toe box, and they seem more cushioned. I find them much more comfortable.

I was excited to try the updated Ghost 16 as I've loved past versions, but something about the way the mid section/ toe box changed was instantly uncomfortable on my foot. Too narrow or the arch was off? It just didn't have my foot sitting right. I have the Glycerin 21s in my rotation and love them too, so it's not the new materials in the sole. I'll be sticking to the 15s for now and returning the 16s.

I am a jogger/walker for health, over 60, always used Skechers go run fast valor for the great wide width and good cushion. they stop making and so had been searching for the good running shoes, after trial and error several pairs, I finally land this Ghost. I did 8 wide, the width is great, it was heavier than my usual running shoes that's why I rate 4 instead of 5. I can run on Ghost and have no pain, the knee soreness after run that used to get from other shoes also none from ghost. I did 10 K on it and it did work great with no red spot on my foot and no pain no soreness.

I liked the design of the ghost 15 more. Please bring that back. These feel more flimsy and not as supportive.
