Brooks Are The Best For Running, Walking, Or Just For Work.

Brooks are absolutely the best shoe I have ever worn. They are very comfortable. They hold up to wearing them everyday. I stand on my feet a lot at work. Brooks are the best.

Comfortable, But Offer Limited Colors

I am not a runner, I am 73 years old with neuropathy in my feet. "Ghost 16" shoes, and custom inserts, make it possible for me to wear them from the time I get up until I take them off for bed at night. They also allow me to walk for extended periods of time when traveling. My only suggestion would be to offer other colors that would go with black or dark slacks. The shoes I own now go great with jeans ands do appreciate your wonderful product. You might appeal to an older population, not runners, if you had a better variety of colors. Sizes are true and aren't too narrow. I would purchase again.

Love Brooks Ghost

Perfect with my orthotics. Did have to order a half size larger than my Ghost 15s. Great for running around the hospital for my volunteer work

Great Cushioning, But Fit Issues For Me - Comfortable, But Not Perfect

Brooks Ghost 16 Review I had high hopes for the Ghost 16, especially given the price point and Brooks' reputation for comfort. There are definitely some positives—the cushioning is excellent, especially for long walks or extended wear. It has that soft, supportive feel that helps reduce foot fatigue. However, there were a couple of design issues that really affected my overall comfort. The padding on the back of the heel comes up unusually high on my ankle and rubs constantly, even with higher socks. Also, the insole seems to slope inward, almost like it’s forcing my foot toward the center of the shoe, which becomes uncomfortable over time. Overall, it’s a decent shoe with great cushioning, but for the price, I expected a more dialed-in fit and comfort. I’d recommend trying them on and walking around before committing, especially if you have sensitive ankles or prefer a more neutral footbed.
