Comfortable and supportive enough to run, walk and play pickleball in!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent running/ walking shoe. I was a bit hesitant about the colors but it actually looks great with many more colors and outfits than I thought they would. Great addition to my wardrobe of Brooks running shoes!

If you find the toe/midsole tight, try the W

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve worn Ghosts since model 12. I love them but it seems that they’ve gotten narrower (or my foot has gotten wider) over the years…the point that I often wear a hole in the medial side wall over my 1st MTP joint. I finally decided to try a men’s 8 and a women’s 10 W side by side (well, technically, back to back during a run haha). Turns out, the men’s 8 was the same as the regular width women’s (if not tighter??) but the women’s W was perfect. It wasn’t sloppy or too wide, it gave just enough extra space across the base of my toes to make it worthwhile. I hate that there aren’t as many color choices in the W but I guess I’m running for function not style.

Bring Back the Ghost 16

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I’ve been a fan of the Ghost shoe for years. I still cherish my Ghost 15 and Ghost 16 models. This new version does not compare and actually hurts my feet with each walk. I’ve tried and tried to like them, but the comfort is not there. Bring back the 16, please!

Love these shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these running shoes. I go up a size in running shoes and 6.5 in Brooks is always the right fit. Nice comfortable shoes for my aging feet

Previous version of the shoe was better

Not as good as previous versions. I notice rubbing on the inside edge under my ankle.

Classic Brooks Quality

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the extremely comfortable yet very supportive fit! This model is so spot on and versatile that it's my 2nd pair and the 5th pair we've purchased for just the two of us! He's worn one pair for basketball, one for running, and one for casual wear. The stellar quality combined with superior customer serice makes buying it an extremely easy decision.

Loyal customer to Brooks, especially Ghost

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Ghost! I’ve owned many pairs and versions of brooks but, Ghost are by far my favorite. I love how comfortable they are, I wear them 8-10 hours a day and forget I’m even wearing shoes. My lower back pain has even improved since I have more support on my feet and stand up more straight. Looking forward to treating myself to a new pair in a couple months!

My only choice

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not a runner but have very fussy feet. These allow me to be on my feet all day long without difficulties. That Brooks has a pattern of offering lots a variety of fun colors make them my everyday goto shoe.

Awful Quality

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The tops of these shoes just started ripping apart almost immediately (see pic). I’ve had the shoes 9 months now and they’ve been torn apart looking for months already. Would not reorder. Not sure what happened with quality control, but these are the worst Brooks shoes I’ve ever had.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the brooks brand. I was skeptical about these shoes because of how much cushion these have but I’m glad I went with the suggestion I got from the shoe finder quiz because my feet hurt way less and I’m so grateful for that. I’m also glad I went with the extra wide instead of just wide. My toes have much more room and I absolutely love it, and no my feet don’t slide around at all.

Descent

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Descent road running shoe. I still feel there needs to be better support. Running 3-5 miles in these is great but further distances leave me feeling more sore than I should feel. I’ve been running for over 20 years consistently running 4 days per week including 2 runs that are further than 6 miles. I do run light. After a few runs I did put a pair of Dr. Scholl’s inserts in that did help with the cushion and support a bit. Overall a better shoe than many of the others I’ve tried. Would buy again but not at full price. Sale/ last seasons prices only. I don’t expect these to last as long as I think they should.

Good support, but overheats due to material used.

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

This particular sneaker is not my favorite compared to the previous one I purchased. These sneakers have good support, but the fabric that’s used is causing my feet to overheat. I have no choice, but to return this pair.
