As an Athletic Trainer, I put in A LOT of steps during my work day. Decided to try a pair of Ghost 16s and I have been very happy with them so far! Very comfortable.

Just retired my Ghost 14's at 294 miles, was getting some hip stiffness. Only into the 16's for 12 miles, feel good, hips happy so I'm happy.

I love the Ghost style, I think they have more cushion than the other styles, which is g great if you have lower back problems. One thing I would hope Brooks does is to make more colors available for people with narrow feet.

I don't like the "tongue" which is different from last year's model. It requires putting my finger on it to ensure it's flat. Very annoying. If it ain't broke (which it wasn't), don't fix it!

I purchased these shoes in May with the plan to use them as my daily drivers for work; walking on concrete floors and the occasional football field. I've been surprised to find that the rubber soles have already worn through to the foam in just three months. I really expected to get a much longer lifespan out of these and can't imagine how fast I would have burned through them if I was running.
I've also notices a seam or some other rub point at the top of the toe box that's present on one shoe, but not the other. I'm not sure what that's about. In the end, I wouldn't purchase another pair of this model.

Great shoes! Although I need insoles because my feet are super flat. Want to save this for running but I keep wanting to use them for everyday walking. The pelican oyster color is sooo good and neutral

The toe box for the men's narrow width Ghost 16 is too wide. A narrow size should be just that.

I love this shoe! Never thought a shoe would be capable of alleviating my knee pain, but this one did.

Only have worn them a few times to walk on treadmill. They are fine but there is some discomfort in the upper portion of the tongue of this shoe.

The Brooks Ghost is one of the best shoes I have ever owned. It has a nice heel height with good cushioning and good toe box. It comes in 3 widths so nearly everyone can get a good fit. I would highly recommend this shoe.

I have a pair of Ghosts and theyre so comfy I bought these for my mate. He is so impressed by them. He feels it lessens his hip and knee pain. Theyve become his favorite shoe.

Toe box is slightly less generous than the 15. Please expand the toe box.

I'm a huge Brooks Ghost runner and have loved the shoe for years. However I believe the toe box has gotten weaker since the Ghost 13 or 14 and with a less cushioned insole. Having run on the more recent Ghost 15 and 16 I believe the shoe has gone from a perfect 10 to an 8. I plan to still run on them but hoping for a slight change back to the firmness of the Ghost 14.

Very comfortable shoe. Bought For trip to Italy, where we would be doing a lot of walking around Rome. This is the second pair of these I have purchased and I am very happy with them. Nicely cushioned.

Awesome sneakers feel great to run in, though need to be broken in a little. Initially a little narrow but once they loosen they are great

Couldn't believe that Ghost 15's could be trumped, but could feel the difference in the feel, comfort when walking several miles/day. I have had joint replacement
surgery for arthritis done in both feet. Tried many brands, and Brooks is the ONLY one that "turns back time" and feels like walking on air! Love em'!

Not impressed with the Ghost 16. I chose wrong color and the shoe fits a little snug in the toes.

Great shoe. Not quite as much comfort as Ghost Max. But really close. I wanted a putty color in 4E. But it has a bright colored sole not ideal for everyday wear. The Ghost line is the best for combat.

This is a great tennis show; however, since I am flat footed, the arch support was too high for my comfort. Unfortunately, I returned I had to return.

I did like the now old version of Ghost Max 12mm drop and the extra padding. This shoe hurts my feet. Not a fan. Kinda bummed you changed the version of the shoe.

Neutral review:
I had to return the ghost 16s due to the big change in fit. The front foot became more narrow and it no longer accommodates my foot. The ghost 15s fit great, and I'm disappointed I have to look for a different shoe.
