I can always count on Brooks' shoes to fit and feel good! You don't need to break these shoes in, they're comfortable when you first put them on.

Show width runs narrow: Order extra wide for wide. Shoelaces are far apart.

My shoes are very good but Brooks only offers black or gray in my size every year (4E).I cant understand why a major company cant track their 4E customers and e-mail us to let us know they have a different color every once in a while. I have purchased Brooks for 10 years and never been able to buy anything but black or gray

My husband loves these shoes this is the first pair of athletic shoes that he has ever had in a narrow width and they are so comfortable that he doesn't he's wearing them they are that light. After years of trying he has finally found his go to brand.

I love the Ghost 16. But this one some how did not have the ankle support the 16 does. First time I wore them, I fell.

The Ghost 17 fits somewhat snug/tight, but feels good worn with a thin Feetures ultralight sock. Anything thicker it feels too tight for me. The Ghost 15 feels roomier for me and I can wear a neutral or thicker sock with it. The Ghost 13 overall has been the best fit for me but obviously no longer available.

They're really comfortable shoes for walking, and the cushioning especially feels nice and big.

I have worn Brooks Ghost for 5 years - the 13, 14, and 15 (two pairs, my favorite model). The Ghost 17, however, did not seem to fit at all. Every aspect of the fit seemed a little off. Maybe I will have better luck with the 18 whenever that comes out? I sure wish Brooks could brink back the Ghost 15!

Im am overall pleased with the shoe however for me at my age I need more support in the arch and balls of my feet as well as a little more room in the toe box area like the Glycerin Max offers.

There is too much of a lift in the heel with this shoe. Nice style however, it feels like I am wearing boots when walking or working out otherwise. Causes tightness in lower back and hip, something I have not experienced with other shoes.

I have worn Brooks Ghost Shoes for years. Ghost 17, however, runs 1/2 size short and the medium width is much narrower than prior models. Very disappointed. I will be searching for another brand.
