Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 17

Light weight. Very nice

Fits well Very comfortable.

Still in the try on phase and seeing if it’s a good fit.

These were a gift but the recipient is very happy with them. Finding a men’s narrow isnt easy and these fit as they should.

I've had Brooks Ghost 14, 15, 16, and now 17. I obviously like them. Even so, the 17 is my favorite so far. I love the reduced heel-to-toe drop. It encourages a midfoot strike, which is how I learned to run. My shoes have always worn down the most right where the sole gets thinner by design, and now there is more cushion there. I also love the look of the all black version. Even though it is a bit aggressive, the new design on the soles is a great improvement over the pocky look of previous generations. These are lightweight, comfortable, they fit pretty perfectly, and they are by far my favorite running shoes.

I am happy to say at last I've found a replacement shoe for the discontinued Brooks dyad!! It took a while but these shoes work for me. No knee pain as I experienced with other brooks shoes. And I literally tried all the other styles Brooks had.thank goodness!!

I usually buy a medium width, and it typically takes 2–3 months for the shoes to feel comfortable. This time, I decided to order the E-Wide fit. When the shoes arrived, I was worried they might be too wide—they looked significantly broader than my previous pair. But after a week of wearing them, I can confidently say I made the right choice. This model feels more cushioned than the previous one, which is a nice improvement. As for the colors—they're interesting, but not particularly attractive. That's why I prefer the black version.

Brooks seems to have really lost their way in pursuit of other shoe manufacturers. The ghost 16 was a debacle. This one, sadly, is no different. It feels like your heel is going to pop out of the shoe. The ghost 14 and 15 were great. Why did they ruin such a great line of shoes? I used to wear 100% Brooks. I haven’t in a couple years now. Tried almost every new design they have introduced, they are all equally dismal. It’s such a shame. Switched to ON Running and have been really happy with them.
