I've been wearing the Ghost style for 6 years, but the 15 is not working for me. The new toe box is too stiff and confining. It feels as if my toes are always rubbing and, unfortunately, they just are not comfortable. The fit at my arch is good, and I did love the color choice, but I will be returning this shoe.

Comfortable but the color scheme looks different online than when I received them.

This was my 3rd pair of Ghost. They have always had great support and love that they come wide, well at least some do. This time I ordered standard because the fun stylish print does not come in wide. As usual they were too narrow for my right foot. I had to return. I tried looking at other Brooks designs, but the wides are always sold out with the cute patterns or wide is not even an option. I find it very frustrating that wide is only available for basic colors and not the fun more stylish patterns. Step up your game Brooks. There is a market for girls with wide feet, we like to wear cute shoes too.

Tongue gusset, needs it. Brooks ghost 16 please, couple little pieces of fabric on the sides of the tongue will solve a lot peoples of headaches. Don't be cheap, make it happen. And not so important but drop the 12mm drop to 10mm, 10mm is still high but 12mm is unnecessary and frightening to a lot of folks.

the shoes feel fine and comfy as always, but the shoelaces are thin, feel cheaply made and are extra thin. I have to double tie them to make sure they are secure. Please make the shoelaces more sturdy on the next model.

I have bought Ghosts for years and started buying them in Wide about 3 years ago. This latest wide Ghost feels like it has less cushioning in the front part near the balls of my feet. I'm not sure these will work out--I might need to switch to a more cushioned Brooks shoe.

Not as good as the ghost 13 but better than the 14th. Don't like the flat shoe strings that was with the 14s and 15s. Usually I don't have to break in my Brooks the left shoe that I ordered had some extra room in the heel I didn't know if it was a manufacturing issue with the shoe, I had ordered another pair and don't seem to have the problem with it. Brooks needs to replicate the 13 as a whole along with the round stretchable shoe strings it seems like Brooks strayed away from a good shoe. If this keeps up I will look for another manufacturer.

The Ghost 14s fit me perfectly. These are way too wide, particularly in midsole. The 2 sides nearly touch when I tried to lace them up, and just looks overall sort of clunky. I am a size narrow, with flat, low volume feet. I returned these to purchase another pair of the older version. My criteria for running shoes is black, narrow width, neutral cushion. This is currently my only option on the market. I hope future narrow width versions will be made narrow again!

I purchased the Ghost 13 and have worn them until I can't anymore. I tried to upgrade to the Ghost 14 without success. I purchased the Ghost 15 and I am experiencing the same issue I had with the 14. The fabric in the midsole is entirely too tight!! I'm all about having a snuggly fitting shoe, but I'm talking sooo comfortable by the end of the day I feel like the circulation is being cut off of me feet! I actually have a more narrow foot and usually purchase regular medium size. This has never been any issue for me with any other shoe. I'm not sure what you did to the fabric or midsole of this shoe, but please bring back the structure of the ghost 13!

This shoe was great at first but after one month the cushion is wearing down.

I love Brooks but stopped wearing them for several years due to lack of wide selection. I recently bought a pair only because you finally had a limited edition in wide. Please please expand the availability/styles available in wide. Also please remember that wide feet need longer laces. I can barely tie the shoes because the laces are so short.

My 2nd pair of Ghost and my 4th Brooks shoe.
The black on black looks great. It's the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned.
However, the fabric on the upper ripped/wore out from doing workout circuits on turf.
The bottoms of the shoe are still in fantastic shape after 150+ miles of running.

I have been buying the Brook "Ghosts" for many years. The past few years their color choices and designs on the Ghost shoes for spring/summer Ghosts have been horrible, which is when I use to always buy my new pair for the summer season. I love the shoe and the fit, but come on BROOKS please start giving us ladies some nice bright summer colors to choose from for the summer months. I really do not want blah black, blah gray different shades of gray, navy etc. or medical stethoscope design on my summer shoes. I have had to switch up my brand I purchase the last 3 summers. Please bring back some nice bright summer colors. Unfortunately this summer will not be a Brook GHOST shoe purchase either.

Have worn Ghost for at least the last 10 pair of shoes. Alwaysthe same size. The Ghost 15 in the same size is too big. 1/2 size smaller is too small. Arch support seems wrong. Granted, I did not run in them, but they don't seem as cushiony either. I am going to have to find a new shoe.

Ghost 15 is a nice shoe. Would like to see more colors in wide widths. Very difficult to find 12 1/2, EE in bold colors.

I've had multiple pairs of Ghost 13s and 14s and they were comfortable out of the box. I was excited to try the Ghost 15, but I found them stiff and hard to break in. In particular, the heel cup is uncomfortable and digs into my heels. I never noticed the heel cup in previous models of the Ghost. I buy a new pair of Ghosts about every 3 months and rotate between two or three pairs at a time. I find myself wearing my Ghost 14s now and avoiding the 15s. I just ordered two new pairs of Ghost 14s and I'm so afraid they will run out of my size in the 14s. Brooks, please bring back the comfort of the Ghost 14!

I have always loved my Brooks shoes, however this pair squeaks when walking. I have never had that problem before with their shoes. However for that reason alone I am only giving them a 3*. Just because the sound annoys me when walking

The back pull tab of my right shoe digs into my heal and hurts, I'm trying to stretch it out and hoping it gets better because it's very uncomfortable

As a podiatrist, I do not recommend this shoe for anyone who needs arch support. This shoe is not very supportive. It would be a good fit for someone with a more neutral arch. For those who overpronate, I do not recommend this shoe. I tried the shoe with a custom orthotic, and I still had pain at my posterior tibial tendon and arch. It also is somewhat narrow through the forefoot, so if you have neuroma or bunions also do not recommend. I have gotten a lot of compliments on how cute they are though.

They're acceptable but not amazing. They'd be more comfortable if made wider at the arch and if the soles didn't angle downward in the direction of my toes. They're definitely better than a lot of other options out there but still not as good as they could be for the price. Altra's shoes are roughly the same price but way more comfortable, just saying.

Love the Ghost and have been wearing them for years! This version is a little different, the tongue in particular bothers me the way and placement of the seam. These shoe laces on the Ghost 15 are the worst, please bring back the puffy ones that displace pressure better!! Also, better this round on having more colorful options for wide-footed runners, but it's be nice to have more than two colors that aren't black/white/grey.
