Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 17

So disappointed- have worn every Ghost but this one doesn’t have the wide toe box and narrow heel- instead super tight in toes so the added cushion doesn’t make up for these not fitting my feet!

Pretty sneaker but not comfortable.

I’ve had about 7 pairs of Brooks Ghosts that fit like magic on my feet. This pair, although really amazing in color (Navy papaya) felt really narrow in the toe area. Give me blisters type fo narrow. The material is different than your typical Ghosts which may have compromised the normal space for the toes.

More narrow than 16's. Shoe had a lot of hot/rub spots from the start. Super disappointing. Please stop drastically changing this model year-to-year.

I have been buying Brooks Ghost for 15+years for many reasons including the generous toe box. The 17 is the first time I have felt the tie box of the M Width was too narrow. So disappointing.

I’ve been wearing Ghost for a long time. I’m very disappointed in the 17. The heel is so stiff it was a challenge to get on. But they are very stylish so I thought I would keep them in the hopes it might loosen up. After wearing for ten hours today, I had to change shoes. My feet and knees ached. Definitely not as supportive or cushioning as the 14 or 15 model. I wish I could return them. But I did wear them all day so they will be put away for a shoe I only need to wear for an hour or two.

They were very uncomfortable and did not look as nice as the picture. Not the usual Brooks quality, will be returning.

First, let me say that I ordered the Ghost 17 when it first came out. The recommended size for me was 9 even though I always wore a size 9.5 wide in previous Ghost versions. So, so very sad to say, the Ghost 17 is not at all an improvement over the Ghost 16. The Ghost 17 is just awful - too narrow, less cushioning or cushioning type. All the improvements that Brooks say they made are not improvements at all. Unfortunately I wore them too much to return them or I would have. I hate them and my feet hate them, too. I'm always in pain when I wear them. I continue to wear them because they are the only white sneakers I own and my black ones don't look good with summer clothing. Lucky that at least for winter, I have 2 pairs of black Ghost 16 to rely on. I don't know what I will do when they wear out because I have tried several other Brooks models and none of them fit right like my Ghost 16s.

I’ve always loved Ghost, and really wanted to love these, but they caused my feet to hurt horribly. The heels and the balls of my feet just ache. I wore them for road walking and the treadmill.

The heel area is completely different than precious models. Very narrow and doesn't cover the width of the back heel. Also the middle portion of this part is much higher, but the sides lower. Awkward fit. Super bummed!

I have several pairs of these. I love them!! I have neuropathy in my feet from an injury and these help so much.

Currently the Ghost 17 is my go to running shoe. Just did not love the look of the dark shoe with dark soles and dark laces so returning this pair.

Great first all day use

These are great for people who are on the feet all day!! Great support

Once again, these ghost sneakers are the most comfortable by far. They hug my feet without being tight, support and comfort top notch and they don't rub my skin or bother my bunion. Love.

felt too large. will reorder in a 1/2 size less

Brooks are the best! I have been wearing them for years and they are always a perfect fit and very comfortable.

I have been wearing Brooks Ghost shoes for years. These fit and feel amazing.

Very nice shoe! Ordered in narrow, fits well in heel & ample room in toe box. Good support

The sneaker is very well designed. They were just way too narrow for my feet even when I ordered a wide. Ghost 15 are much wider.

This is my second pair! Wish they had more color choices in double width.

I really like these shoes and I recommend them. I am into comfort

Very nice and the blue color is pretty

These shoes fit well and are just what I was looking for.
