Customer Reviews Brooks Deleted

These shoes are wonderfully designed aesthetically but they provide the cushioning and fit needed for my orthotics needed for both running and walking. I purchase 3 pair a year.

I absolutely love this shoe, it's my new go to. It's so comfortable and not just for running. I wear it to work and casual wear all day. The black goes with everything. I really love the depth and the width of these shoes. It's even deep enough to add my custom inserts and not fall out the back of the shoe! It's also wide enough for my somewhat wide normal foot and narrow enough for my prosthetic foot to fit snug. The tongue is soft and comfortable, and so is the proximal trimline that hugs the ankle. Durability is great with these shoes, and the eyelets are holding up well. Good arch support, softer heel, no dead spots during transition from heel strike to toe off, I just love em! Hopefully I can order them in gray soon as well!!

These past a major running shoe test: I don't notice them much once I'm out. These are not miraculously comfortable. I could unfortunately tell that I was jogging on pavement, not clouds. I suppose Brooks wants us to indulge in Glycerins if we want pampering. These are now my go-tos (by default I wore off half the sole of my Ghost 13s, and I need a single pair for my 20-30 miles a week). If I slip these on without loosening the laces til at least 1/2 way down, I find the sides of the tongue fold inward. The flat laces make for sturdy knots (but delicate nails won't like undoing them). The shoe looks speedy and mine are subtly flashy with the color concentrated on the sole.

Overall, pretty good running shoe! They feel a little stiff but I'm also still breaking them in, otherwise no complaints!

Used to run brooks ghosts until they changed the design and I was getting blisters now the brand I went with changed their equivalent to be a giant boat of a shoe (see Ghost Max) with no regular option. Did my research and went with this. I have EE feet and supinate (run more so on the outside of my feet). Run 4-5 times a week on trail and road usually 5-10km. Very comfortable. Size seems true to foot measures and the design looks good (extra wide colors are always lame for any brand got black or gray this time). Laces are good and stay tied without any double loops. The only issues I have is they don't grip well even when new. I'll slide on wet painted stripes on the road, or dry rocks/boulders on the trails. It's manageable but was a little surprising the first time. Aside from this my feet can slide inside a bit, pushing into the front of the shoe with the factory insert when running downhill. Might be a shoe sock issue. Tightening them up a little helped, but too tight leads to other problems. Overall will be my regular shoe until they change it for changes sake again.

I bought the black with mint and soft lilac. Beautiful shoes!!! BUT, they are not as comfortable as the Glycerin 20. That is the most comfortable shoe on the planet in the WORST color selections! Not enough come in wide. I have to upsize to fit my wide feet. PLEASE put this color combination on the Glycerin! Alas I am sending the Ghosts back.

Nice shoe. Like these better than the 15. Comfortable. Cant seem to keep them clean and even Dawn soap doesn't bring them back to original.

I've had them for a couple of weeks and so far they are great! Very comfortable and squishy. Only critiques are that they come with flat laces that come undone easily while running and they are a little low on arch support.

While Ghost 15 is comfortable, it is not as stable as the 14. It carries me down the road every day so it's okay.

I ordered these in search of black as they were advertised. They are actually gray, not black.

I now have two pair of Ghost 15's. The reasons for this is how they fit, feel, support, appearance, and their durability. For years I purchased another brand because of what they offered but I always had to use an insert. The brand has changed their sole design and has lost my business because they no longer meet my needs. Keep up the great job with the Ghost line, so far I'm impressed.

I really like this shoe. Ran 6 miles with them the first day and didn't have and discomfort. I just wish their was more colors available in wide width. I feel like I always have to settle for only dull colors.

I wear an 11 AAAA in regular shoes and have a high arch. The Ghost 15 narrow is as good as it gets for me. These shoes replace my 14s. The midfoot conforms to my arch better. I don't feel like the cushioning is as good as the 14 so 1 + and 1-. Overall, good shoe.

1st time user - very comfortable and I would both definitely recommend and buy again - I have run about 50 miles so far on trails and roads - I was hoping for a little more cushioning but perhaps their other model?

Very comfortable for brisk walking. I wish they would make this shoe in more basic colors in addition to the bright colors.

I have found the shoes to be great! I have worn the Ghost shoes since the Ghost 10 came out. My only complaints are the switch to the flat shoe laces! everyone I know who has the Ghost with the flat shoe laces hates them. Unless the laces are double knotted, they will not stay tied! Also my left shoe top fabric has ripped on every pair i have owned! They always rip in the same spot.

I have been wearing the Ghost running shoes since model #10. Liked the first one so much I bought 4 more pairs before the style would change. That being said I tried the Ghost 14 which I wasn't crazy about. Didn't breathe as well and was the first one to have problems keeping the laces tied. The flat shoe laces just wouldn't stay tied. Tried the Ghost 15 and same issue with the laces not staying knotted. Liked the over all shoe except for the laces. Hope there will be a change to the #16's in this regard.

I'm not a runner currently. I have been walking almost daily with Ghost15. They are comfortable and neutral and work out well for my feet and legs. I used to run and if I could again I certainly would.

I like the old shoelaces that were rounded. I don't know why you had to start with the flat laces, don't like them bring back the old laces!

Been wearing Ghosts for at least 15 years! Very cushy & more snug than last iteration. Very happy that these were made with some recycled materials (big reason for purchase). Would love more color options! Unfortunately, there is more padding in back of ankle where blisters form

Bought these shoes as my current pair is getting near end of life. Haven't ran in them yet. I would like to respond to the survey after running in them.

VERY comfortable. I wish there was a pull tab to help pull the heel on. The sole (or pad) has a slight marshmellow feel. I wish it was a smooth sensation. The current trend of wide soles is very irritating with the increase of tripping, catching on rugs, steps etc.

Consistent Ghost shoe - cushion is nice support is normal. If you have liked the Ghost before you will still like it. One problem is the tongue seems to be a bit longer than the previous versions - rubbed a small blister on the top of my foot. Corrected by using a longer sock - but unexpected.

It's a good shoe. The 14 is much more cushioned, so I found that a bit disappointing. Overall I like them. I was just surprised by the difference between 14 and 15

I love Ghost, and purchase a few a year. But, I wear a wide which limits my options for the limited editions. The ones that were available I get comments on every time I wear them. As a nurse, I am on my feet for several hours, the comfort is unmatchable. There are so many I would LOVE to purchase. Please make it more available in a wide so I can have the opportunity to WOW the public with my beautiful shoes.
