Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 17

I’ve been wearing Ghost running shoes for many years over the model changes. This is the first one where I had to change my size choice regarding width. The length remains the same but this shoe last changed enough that I needed to move up to the 4E width from the 2E. In New Balance I’ve always purchased 4E however with the Ghosts, 2E always worked great. Wide enough, but still fit comfortably, no tightness. With the 17s, the 2E was a bit too tight. I could have worn them however I think over time I would have regretted not going with the 4E so that’s the pair I kept. I did some research and it landed on going with the 4E as when running the foot will tend to swell so the slightly larger space would accomodate that. The 4Es weren’t so wide that my foot was moving around as they did on previous models in the 4E width. This info isn’t new, just corroborating what I’ve seen others report. On the “Hoka” style of this one versus the past, yeah I can see that a bit however I think they look and feel good on the foot, so continuing with this line.
