Im on the 4th month of these being in my running rotation. They were comfortable out of the box but now they hurt my feet. I would say 100 miles max for comfort. The cushion is gone. I worry it may be due to the sustainable material. Something is different for sure. I will stick to buying Ghost 14s when I can find them because 15 and 16 havent worked for me. I have loved Brooks ghost for 10 years but I may be on the lookout for a new shoe.

The perfect fit and a good amount of spring forward. Toe box is very roomy.

The Ghost 16 has a wide toe box and cushioning to make it very comfortable. I like that the shoe is very lightweight. The fit is true to size.

I dont like it as much as my previous ghost 15 sneakers. Ive had 2 pots of Brooks now and really liked the 2 previous pairs. These ones just dont have the same level of quality and my feet dont feel as contained. The other pairs were extremely comfortable and my foot felt a lot more stable.

These shoes were recommended to me by the staff at Brooks Running. I was looking for something to replace my much-loved discontinued Levitate. While these fit well, and have a good snug heel (I ordered Narrow), there are too many issues for me to continue wearing them. I tried them out for a few long walks and short runs. My toes were uncomfortable and hot, perhaps due the 12mm drop. For the first time in my life, I experienced excruciating hip pain. I hope that there is a way to return and replace this item.

They are so comfortable it is like walking on clouds. I work in healthcare and they help with my plantar fasciitis.

Brooks are the best running shoes I have ever used. This is now my third pair and I love them just as much as the first two pairs.

This is the 4th style I've tried (Revel 4, Trace, Divide 4) and the 4th that hasn't worked out for me. The size I buy fits fine, a size up would cause my forefoot to slide while I walk, so I'm sure the size is correct. The Ghost 16 is described as "for road running, Walking, Soft Cushioning". I disagree. There's no arch support for my flat feet, super flat and hard insole, and certainly did not feel soft cushioning in the mid/outsole while walking for miles. They're not breathable, and they're stiff. My feet ache after wearing them. I officially give up on this brand.

Love the new foam in the heel, but this shoe is very firm in the forefoot. After wearing this shoe my forefoot felt bruised. There is padding there, but felt very firm. I tried more than one to make sure it wasnt a defect and experienced the same firmness in all of them. Hoping the next version will be better. Had to return shoes.

Ok hear me out ... Brooks Ghost are my favorite, and I have been a loyal fan, recommending to any beginner who asks me for shoe brands. I have been using Ghost since 2017 and always get the new model. BUT the newer ones have been disappointing me. 1-they don't last longer anymore (this isn't a big problem for me) 2- i am getting serious blisters on my forefoot and toes. I NEVER get blisters and ghost 16 makes my feet feel like it's scrubbing harshly against the hard surface when I run. I noticed this especially after 100+ miles on the pair. The forefeet support/quality has dropped significantly in Ghost and I wish I didn't complain much about 15. The 16 makes 15 look way better! Please bring back the quality and durability of Ghosts in the upcoming models - I miss them.

Im a nurse on my for many hours a day. With the cushion and support of these shoes, my feet are no longer tired and sore after 12 hour shift! They are a great investment.

Unfortunately this is the worst version Ive owned. Feels very cheap and uncomfortable. These shoes have never hurt my feet until now. Nothing like Ghost 15.

I'm on my feet on concrete floors for 10-14 hours a day, these shoes (and their predicessors) have made a huge difference... honestly didn't love the 15 but these ones are waaay better. Super bouncy and comfy, no complaints here.
