Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 16

Love the ghost 16 and love that they have the 4 width sizes

The best most comfortable running shoe I've ever had. I always buy ghost and this one is even better than the others.

Love these sneakers - great for walking, running, working out or just wearing out and about.

A truly great shoe for comfort and style!!

I have two pair of these. They are one of the few "traditional" trainers left. Some people may find the high heel/toe drop to be awkward at first, but it suits my running really well. Depending on what you're used to, the cushioning may feel firm to some. Regardless, I've found they offer ample protection. This is a neutral shoe, but also very stable with a fairly wide base. I've taken them anywhere from 3 to 12 miles and usually forget they're on my feet. Also I have a pair of the Ghost 15s and much prefer the feel of the DNA Loft 3 foam of the 16s. As per usual, Brooks quality of construction is the best in the biz. For reference I run 20-25 miles per week.

The Ghost series is my go to shoe. I've been using them for a few years now and won't go back to any other brand.

Very comfortable for everyday use. Not too much cushioning, plenty of stability. Very attractive in appearance, too.

Great pair of shoes. REALLY appreciate the extra wide. 1st time trying the extra wide and my feet are happy.

Love wearing them easy on the body get a lot of use out of them I'm on my third pair of the ghost 16

Very comfortable after a short break in period.

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.

Love the 12mm heel drop, helping me recover from Achilles Tendonitis.

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.

Nice and comfortable shoe.

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.

Well Made shoes with good support

Bought these and went to Amsterdam. Walked 8 miles. My feet never once hurt!

I have been Brooks running shoe for years and this latest version is not a disappointment.

I use the ghost 16s as my everyday work shoe,I'm a custodial supervisor and I'm on my feet from 3 pm til 1:30 am,very comfortable,have tried other brands that were more expensive and not as comfortable,you guys will be my new go to for shoes
