My first footwear review - I have hard-to-fit feet, and these pink Ghost Brooks sneakers make my feet so happy!! They are comfy, they have a roomy toe box, and the cushy soles make me want yo stay on my feet all day. Thanks, Brooks, for fitting my feet! I'm a girl and I'm tired of wearing men's sneakers.

I love the Brooks Ghost 17. They're extremely comfortable. The only problem I have with this particular shoe is the color. Much brighter than I need or want. But that's OK! I can easily return them and order a little dark color.

The height of the shoe around ankle bones is super low and the back of the heel is exaggerated up and out. Does not work well with my narrow ankles. The base of the shoe also feels way too big and squishy compared to my last version Ghost 15.

These Brooks are amazing! They were comfortable right out of the box! Wore them all day and forgot I had them on. No issues with toes cramping or the ankles being rubbed.

I need a wide toe box and the wide Brooks Ghost 17 has fit me perfectly. My orthotic works well. Just wish there were more color choices for the D width

I've worn Brooks Ghost for over 10 years. Ghost 17 is very disappointing and no longer the same fit. Why change what was working and very popular? This model is certainly not an improvement over previous models. The mid-foot is narrower and made my feet fall asleep after an hour of wear. Overall, the shoe seems of poor quality. Similar reviews exist online on multiple websites from long-time Ghost wearers, all expressing significant disappointment with the fit. Brooks Ghost Designers: please return to the older fit, as in the Ghost 14.

My shoes are absolutely comfortable wonderful I also bought two pairs of the walkers not quite as comfortable as the ghosts, but I love all three pairs. The blue ones are especially comfortable.
