Didn't work for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought this shoe looked GREAT, and I used to wear a Ghos,t but the arch was uncomfortable right out of the box. Didn't work for me

Great shoe.

Originally ordered these for myself. I accidentally ordered a man’s size instead of a woman’s size. Luckily it fit my husband! He keeps telling me I need a pair also.

Best decision!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best decision ever was buying these! I started having knee pain and turned to these shoes. They are very comfortable and help prevent injuries for me when running. I also work in these shoes which are perfect for my 8-10 hour shifts where I’m on my feet all day.

Completed 2025 NYC Marathon

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love GHOST. My Ghost 16 completed 250 miles about 1-2 weeks prior to the marathon. The Ghost 17 made it in time for me to run 2 weekends with them prior to the NYC Marathon. No problems with my feet. I always recommend these shoes to my friends.

Shoes, look and feel good, lighter than expected. Great balance for indoor or outdoor running, plenty of support in the insole which has all the feel.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoes fit extremely well, running on treadmill or running outside. I run from 3-6 miles at a time either in or out and these shoes have been great with no leg fatigue at all . Recommend.

Bring back the old Ghosts

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did not like them at all. Whatever Brooks did between the Ghost 15 and 16 has been awful. The Ghosts used to be THE shoe for softness. Older pairs I've had (10, 13, and 15) have been amazing right out of the box, like stepping on a surprisingly supportive marshmallow. I tried the 16s and now the 17s, and they are way too firm to the point my feet ache. Being back the soft Ghosts! Also, the color of the black and orange 17s were a bit misleading on the website. They originally looked all black with some orange accents, but upon getting them, I saw the gray reflective panels all over. I thought they looked more like hiking boots than running shoes. I sent them back and am now trying the Glycerin 22s, to see if these are comparable to the old Ghosts. Brooks, whatever you guys did... undo it.

Outstanding shoe for walking or casual wear

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ghost 17 - really working well for me. Very supportive and comfortable for me. My right foot supinates - Ghost 17 helps immensely. Works well with orthotics.

Disappointed

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was introduced to Brooks with the Ghost 15 and I have thought I had found my shoe for life. Unfortunately, the Ghost 17 cannot compare. The shoe is just not comfortable, and it’s to the point where I don’t even want to wear them. The toe seems tight and support seems lacking. The Ghost 15 was something I looked forward to wearing. I’m not sure what was done to the Ghost 17, but I’m sure there would be a lot of people in line for a new pair Ghost 15’s if they were available. I’m just sayin’…

Toe Box Doesn’t Seem As Wide and Shoe Doesn’t Fell As Confortable.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

The toe box seems to narrow sooner than the Ghost 16 which makes the toe box seem not as wide. It doesn’t seem as comfortable as the Ghost 15 or 16 but maybe in time that will change. Overall it seems like a good shoe.

Show not proportional to size listed.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered a 2 E which is wider than the standard size W. This shoe is not a 2E so because of the size difference I can only give this shoe a 2 rating.
