Ghost Fan

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ALWAYS been a fan of ghosts, however I think they changed a little. Like the older, older models better. Great support.

My Feet say Thank You

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a runner. I have bad feet and ankles. Ghosts or Ghost Max was recommended by a podiatrist and a shoe department person. Brooks always has my size online. This is my first pair of Ghost and I like the fit and support better than my last pair -?the Ghost Max. I can walk more than with other brand I have tried because I have the support and comfort I need. My feet thank you.

very comfortable

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As I age, I am finding that the fat pads in my feet are disappearing or shrinking. I tried switching from the Adrenalines to the Ghost due to foot pain especially in the balls of my feet and the Ghost has been much more comfortable for me on long walks, in fitness classes, or runs. I also need a narrow width, and the Ghost fits a bit better for my foot in the toe box and ankle area. The extra cushioning in the Ghost really helps the ball of foot pain I was beginning to struggle with.

Great shoes

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these shoes… they are all I ever wear and have been doing so for many years. Love the wide toe bed. They also don’t require a break in period. I buy them a half size larger than what I regularly wear to accommodate thick athletic socks.

Light & supportive

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I was surprised how comfortable & supportive this sneak feels. I’ve been wearing HOKAs but thought I’d give these a try. I selected the WIDE and really enjoy the feel. They’re also light allowing several miles with no issues daily.

Brooks Ghost shoes are great!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Brooks Ghost shoes. Year after year, the styling is nice, the sizing is consistent, and the comfort is great. I love having a variety of color options! I wear a women’s 10.5. Thank you for continuing to have Brooks Ghost in this size. (Unfortunately, a lot of retailers don’t seem to carry this size.) I own several pairs and am a Brooks Ghost girl for life.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ghost is not for me--too wide a toe box and not a good feel of support. I like Adrenaline much better but they are way too expensive. I tried Ghost because they were on sale but returned them. I guess the saying is correct (You get what you pay for). I am hoping for Adrenaline to go on sale.Did not li

Pain pain pain

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They run smaller than the ghosts 16, with less toe room, and the fabric hurts my feet. The back of the shoe, with the loop hurts my ankle, and they feel cheap, with not as much cushioning as the 16. I'm really disappointed, and cannot wear them.

Change is design equals change is performance

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I have been wearing the Ghosts for the last 8 years. Every year they change the design a little, but they always fit perfect. I usually buy 5-6 pairs a year. I put these on and they are completely different. The sole of the shoe is very thick so I thought they were going to be really soft but they weren't and because it is so huge, it's like walking with moon boots on so it feels very heavy. I hope they bring back some characteristics. I just got two pairs of these and I am returning them.

Exceeded my expectations

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I actually use them for cardio sculpt dance classes (Jazzercise). I have narrow feet and used to love the Glycerin line for my workouts, because they are extra cushy, but since the no longer make them in narrow (the last I was able to get in narrow were Glycerin 20s 😔), I had to find a substitute. Had tried Ghost before from a brick and mortar store, but took them back, so I was hesitant to buy the Ghost line again, especially online, but the 17's are working great for my aerobic dancing needs! 😊👏👍
