Customers Say

Customers overwhelmingly praise this shoe for exceptional comfort and reliable support, with most describing it as one of the most comfortable trainers they own. The plush, responsive cushioning performs well for long runs, daily walking, and all-day standing without fatigue. Many with wide feet appreciate the generous toe box and true-to-size fit, noting seamless orthotic compatibility and strong arch and heel support. The shoe requires no break-in period and delivers immediate comfort. A small number report durability concerns with upper material wear or heel slippage, but most customers demonstrate strong loyalty, repurchasing multiple pairs over years and highly recommending it.

Very Nice

The shoe’s cushioning helps support the feet when landing is not perfectly aligned. It feels lightweight and high quality, and its stylish design looks awesome.

Brooks Ghost 17

These shoes are the best my husband has worn, he swears by the comfort and wear of them. The added width is a bonus as he finds they suit his feet having some swelling due to health issues.

Another Great Ghost Model

Have stuck with this brand and model since the Ghost 10. Only complaint has been the sole wear. The 17 seems to be more robust in this regard.

This shoe is by far the most comfortable shoe I own for walking and trainning. Its very light and holds it's value longer then most brands.

Best Shoe Ever For Work

I wear Brooks Ghosts for work and find them so comfortable and cushioning, after 8 hours on my feet in any other shoe I and my feet were so sore and tired...Ghosts just keep that fatigue at bay and keep my feet feeling great!

Love These Shows!

These shoes are great. They were recommended to me following an assessment of my running style and I’ve gone through 700km with no problems at all so now I’m buying another pair! They’re comfortable and have held up really well for both road and beach runs.

Perfectly Stable And Comfy For My Feet

I had an evo sl. But I got a big feet. So I found it really unstable while running. Then decided I will buy something with more stability. I bought ghost 17 and for first 3 runs. It was alright. But I think after my 3 rd run. It started to feel much more better and had a tempo run and some easy runs and starting to love it now. It’s perfect for my feet

It's My Fourth Pair!

A podiatrist identified my foot troubles as stemming from my previous (non-Brooks) shoe. The Shoe Clinic put me into the Brooks Ghost 17. My feet came right, I hit 800+km and I bought 2 more pairs to alternate. They're at around 400km, and I've just bought my fourth pair (I have 4 of the 6 colours). I'm almost 54 years old and running six days a week. In the past, I found running two days in a row too hard on the joints. Ran my first marathon two months ago, then inadvertently ran a second marathon when I got a little enthusiastic on a training run. I find the shoes very comfortable for hours on the road.

Comfort

The step-in comfort is great and the cushioning feels protective over middle distances, thus far.

Very happy with these, 2nd pair of Brooks Ghost 17's and have been excellent for my marathon training.

Width

I was pleased that Brooks offered a narrow size and the fit was perfect.
