Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost 17

For my particular feet, this is the most comfortable shoe I've worn in years. I have been wearing (and running) in Brooks for about 10 years and have always been happy. But the cushioning throughout toe box really works for my feet. I have over pronation so I add Super Feet insert and they're perfect. But echoing another reviewer, I wish Brooks would provide more colors for us narrow footed souls (soles?) :)

I have long worn Brooks shoes for daily walking. Each model seems to fit a bit differently with each new years' rendition. It took me a bit of experimenting with the Adrenaline, Adrenaline Weatherized, and Ghost models this year. I ended up keeping the Ghost 17 (in a half size bigger than my pervious Ghost 15), as it proved to be my best Brooks fit and the Grey/Clearwater/Purple color combo felt like a good choice for the upcoming fall/winter season.

I usually wear (and prefer) Brooks Launches but didn't like the color options so went with a pair of Ghosts. My running is only treadmill running and the provide good support and are comfortable.

Love the new pink color! So glad that Brooks finally added some color to their Ghost line! How about some more fun colors please?

I was a bit concerned due to some reviews, but the new version of the Ghost feels great. It does feel a little different around the ankles than older models, but the fit is perfect and shoes are comfortable and maybe a little more padded/bouncier than older versions.

I work 12 hour shifts where I'm on my feet. My knees and ankles literally stopped hurting. And I constantly get complimented on them. And they actually came in 10.5, which is a hard size for me to find.

I like these shoes better than the previous Brooks Ghost. Much more support and comfort

The fit and arch support are great!

Recommend by my podiatrist for helping with my peroneal tendinitis. The shoe is lightweight and offers good support and stability for my foot.

Great shoe, fit well, gave great support. Will buy more.

The size 12 shoe fit overall with the exception of the heel, it was too wide and when I walked my heel would rise up.

Shoes felt great. Walked 2.5 miles first time out and the support and comfort was good.

love them ...quite pleased. Great comfort. Would buy again. However, are overpriced at $149

I love these shoes!

Good toe box width and heel cup support

The best stability shoe ever! Not too firm, not too much cushion. Just right for short runs or long walks.

I feel these are the great but got a pair already.

As standard as they come for a running shoe. No bells and whistles. Just a good solid shoe

Shoe fits a little tight over the instep. I believe this will relax once the shoes have been worn several times. Otherwise enjoy the fit and feel when walking in these shoes.

Very comfortable foot bed and heel. Only complaint is that the laces are too short to speed lace, and I have narrow feet.

I have worn Ghosts for many years and have always worn a size 9. These size 9’s feel really big in the toe box, so much that the fabric looks loose and baggy. Also, the dark area around the base of each shoe lace, along with the dark shoe laces gives a very dark and manly look to the shoe (even with the pink trim). I will not give up on Ghosts, but this shoe was not a good choice for me.

My feet have been getting wider so I went for the wide width this time and I'm glad I did. My feet have the extra room it needs to splay out after long walks. The shoes still feels a bit stiff but I'm hoping it will loosen up after some time. Have always loved Brooks' color ways. They have been my go shoes for several years now.
