I've used Ghosts for many years and buy 2 new pair each year. I'm not a runner or hiker These are my go to shoes for dog walks, general use around the house/town and for dog shows - I show Collies, re: you run them. At dog shows you rarely sit down for hours on end typically on concrete for indoors. Everyone's feet are different. For mine, these are perfect. I've never had an issue. I also wear Dahlgren Alpaca socks. The 16s are just as good for me as previous years.
I'd also recommend:
Born, Salomon

I love the ghost 16. I have serious issues with my feet, making it very difficult to find comfortable shoes. These are the best yet! I'm not a runner and these are my daily shoes.

Great shoes, but two things bother me; first is they need a toe guard and second the shoe strings are way too long. MLL

I've been running in Ghosts since the Ghost 5. I have a ton of other shoes, but I just keep reaching for these. They fit my feet perfectly, and they do exactly what I want them to do. They're like stepping behind the wheel of your favorite car.

I'm a high school cross country runner and I've had these shoes for about a year now to train in, and they are amazing. The shoes are super comfortable and that's the first difference you'll feel when you put them on. They're super supportive of your feet and I've never worn anything like them before. Also these things are insanely durable. If you use the shoes enough of course they'll wear down (mine look a little rough at the moment) but that's also because I use them a lot. However, early into the cross country season I got into an accident. I fell off a motorcycle after a cross country practice in the early fall and I got decently hurt because I had running gear on. The shoes though came out of the accident almost unscathed. The lace had a little bit taken out of it and there was a scuff on the side of the sole. Other than that the shoes were fine! My feet were fine too and my dad who was driving the bike had his boots all torn up after that accident. So I can be the one to say these shoes can survive a motorcycle accident. I used the same shoes for the rest of the cross country season to train in and I set a new personal best. In fact I still use the shoes to run in. My only thing about these shoes though, make sure they fit your foot correctly. If they don't fit your foot too well then your feet will feel awful. If you're a distance runner or just want a comfortable, supportive running shoe then these shoes are for you.

Best Ghost yet. I've had a few Ghost models over the years and every time I go to look for a new pair of shoes I think I'll branch out. Every single time, I go back to the Ghost. It's shockingly comfortable, has a great neutral ride with cushion in the right spots for my feet. I have high arches and narrow feet, but I also like room in the toe box. Brooks somehow gets all of that right and I can wear these things all day. Walking, running, HIIT work outs all fit the bill. I will say that I wish they had some more interesting colorways, and that if you're in the weight room you're going to want a different pair of shoes especially for squatting or dead lifts. There's too much cushion to keep your feet stable at relatively high weights. If you're there for a normal workout though, these shoes will be more than adequate. Overall, my favorite all round running shoe is even better in the Ghost 16.

Best shoes ever! They are supportive, cushy and comfortable. Having suffered from plantar fasciitis for a long time, Brooks are the only shoes that I wear and have allowed me to continue to run!

I'm a beginner, I started running about 3 months prior to purchasing these shoes. I can see a marked improvement in how my feet feel after a run with these shoes compared with the tennis shoes I used before. I have relatively flat feet, the Ghost is perfect for me.

After six months of daily use, the soles have worn extremely well. The fabric at the ball of my foot and along the outside edge is starting to crack, but is still wearable. These seem to last longer than my New Balance, especially the soles.

I absolutely love these shoes. I normally wear a 10.5 but wear an 11.5 in these for running purposes. I like that the sole is not super thick. These a super comfortable. I now own 2 pair (just different colors) and will contemplate buying a third.
