I have had my current pair about a month & they are so comfortable!
I bought them to help with Plantar Fasciitis,& I havent had had pain since wearing them!
Only one complaint- they squeak,
They didnt at first, but they got a little wet in damp grass & have been noisy ever since. Trying some new techniques tomorrow to hopefully get rid of the squeaks.

I really liked the comfort of the shoe. I'm a nurse and on my feet all day. The only things is that I had to return and get a half size up because my big toe was getting squished in the toe box when I walked around. That never happens to me as I'm a solid size 8. I liked the smaller size everywhere else on my foot, except the toe bed on the inner side. The half size bigger is a little roomier overall. I'm not really running in them, but wearing them for work and I liked the comfort so I'll keep them, but they were almost perfect.they are breathable which I like and they are not ans chunky as hokas.

I have been wearing ghost style Brooks since the 7 I believe, and these are by far the most comfortable version, yet! I just received yesterday and went for my run this morning and find that the width and cushioning in the 16s is perfect for me!

Im not a runner. Im using the shoes for support with my orthotics from The Good Feet store.
I have neuropathy and balance issues and the support provided by the Brooks brand helps on a daily basis. The combination of the shoes and physical therapy are improving my ability to walk further with confidence.
My favorite shoes were the limited edition pride version and I wish there were more interesting colors and patterns available on a regular basis.

These new ghosts were too narrow for me. I started with the ghost 13 and it was much roomier. The toe box doesnt work for me in this iteration, but I technically dont have a wide foot. Going to try the glycerine.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
Even though I have large feet, I went up a size anyways in womens (13), all black. I work in a warehouse with concrete floors and I've been searching high and low to find shoes that will ease the pain I have in my ankles, knees and hips. The cushion inside feels great. The toe box is very wide which I was not expecting - does that happen because of the shoe size? I don't know. I do know that I was expecting more arch support than what is provided. Even though the shoes are not perfect for me, I did keep the shoes because the cushion feels awesome.

I have been wearing the ghost for years. I wear them 10-12 hours each day while at work. The new 16s make my feet hurt so bad. I can't wear them.

I found they were a little snug in the toe compared to the Ghost 15.

The all-black Ghost 16 shoes are perfect as work shoes. They are as comfortable as all my other Brooks shoes.

Every few years there is a new Ghost that just feels a little different on the sides of the footbed. This is one of two in the last 10 years that I have noticed. I still love the Ghost, but I wish they'd stop messing with things and just update it instead of going rogue. The reason people like it is the wide toe box and the moderate arch support, along with being super comfortable and light. So, here is hoping for my usual 5 stars with the next edition. They are still good shoes, but next time I hope they are back to great!

These were a bit too roomy in the mid foot for me. When I added some inserts, they fit great. Getting up there in years and having more joint pain. Hoping a shoe with more cushioning helps, but these are very different from the shoes I'm used to. Jury is still out.

I love Brooks for making narrow width running shoes. I really appreciate being able to find the narrow shoes, otherwise it would be difficult to run. Thank you!
