The sneakers are great, no complaints. But the ordering process from Zappos...my god. It used to be so easy. This time I ordered five pairs of shows to try on and got four separate boxes over the course of nearly a week. This makes the returns process a total pain, as each bit had to be sent back separately. The return labels didn't even have which product was for which box on them. Do better.

I have been wearing Brooks Ghost models since 2016. I have a 4E width foot, high arch and instep and I'm very difficult to fit. The Ghost was the only shoe that fit correctly. I don't know what improvements were made between the 15 and 16 models, but the 16 is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. The fit is perfect for my feet and I feel like I'm walking on clouds. Highly recommend.

Love these running shoes. Very comfortable right out of the box. I highly recommend them. I ordered a half size up do to reading other reviews and it was a good move.

These Brooks Ghost 16 are amazing. I tend to supinate in my stride; these shoes feel stable and extremely comfortable.

These are a staple for my husband as we walk 4-5 miles today. They provide good stability and since switching he’s not had his plantar fasciitis flare up once.

I strayed from the Ghost series to try the Asics Gel Cumulus. I couldn't wait to get back the Brooks Ghost 16s are more comfortable and responsive (the Cumulus felt like I was running in cement). These are the ultimate daily trainer IMO and I won't be looking elsewhere again.

Perhaps the most comfortable exercise shoe I've worn. I do a lot of walking everyday and have been absolutely thrilled with the support of the ghost 16 shoes. It's as if they give my foot a natural roll and propel me forward.

Purchased these shoes for my adult son. He says the fit is great, they're super comfortable and he loves the way they look.

I have short wide feet and struggle to find good comfortable shoes that fit me well. I had switched to brooks several years ago and continue to purchase them. I have been using ghosts for the last several series. I have used both the 2E and 4E. The 4E are bulky but they fit great. This new version is boxier than prior but that does not bother me. Good running and casual day wear shoes. Would definitely recommend and purchase again.

There is a nice amount of arch in the shoe. Unfortunately the shoe laces come apart easily and I have to repeatedly/frequently retie the shoes.

Just simply ran short, and felt a little wider than a Narrow. Thank you for offering so many options.
I'd also recommend:
Proper for a simple everyday, not for running or hiking, shoe. Extremely comfortable in a narrow .

I love the shoe but even getting an extra wide size and having a high instep, the shoe didn't fit like my older ghost did. It was just too tight on the upper laces. Because of the upper laces being so wide at the top, took away from the beauty of the looks. The support was there but the fit was not for me this time.

Very good shoe. If you are looking for more cushion, I recommend the Ghost Max.

The soles feel too soft for my liking. Each footfall feels like the ones experienced by HOKA shoes. I steered away from HOKA because of their squishing feeling. The softness of the soles of the Ghost 16, to me, seems to contribute to the feeling of some footfall instability. I would prefer that the any softness be reserved for the inside of a shoe and have a firmer outsole
