More Cushioning In The 17’s

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Feel good There was some extra glue showing onto the fabric from the sole

I Loved My Ghost 14, This 17 Version Has No Relationship To That!

I loved my Ghost 14...the 17 was so uncomfortable. I wore them around my apartment and couldn't wait to take them off. The instep was totally narrow....plenty of room in the toe and a pleasantly narrow heel.. That mix didn't work for me. I found them unwearable as they were so uncomfortable on my foot. Needless to say, I'm returning them.

What Happened?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently ordered the Ghost 17 in black with a bit of purple. I loved my Brooks Ghost 14, They were comfortable from the start. I found the Ghost 17 to be totally uncomfortable. I'm not sure what they did with the upgrade. The instep felt extremely narrow. I just had them on in my apartment and I couldn't wait to take them off. Needles to say, I'm returning them!

Quality Gone Down Hill

I've loved my Ghost shoes in the past but these are absolutely terrible. I hate that I spent my limited money on them. The quality is awful and the fit is uncomfortable. I usually give a day of breaking in shoes before working out in them and I couldn't wear these for 10 minutes before I had to yank them off. Go back to the previous quality (Ghost 15 is the last one I had), and I may be tempted to buy. These shoes are an investment, and I feel like you've just fleeced your loyal customers for a quick buck. Change, or Brooks will no longer be synonymous with quality.

Slightly Different But Still Supportive And Comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been wearing Ghosts for several years now - my first pair was the Ghost 5. The 17s are a little different than previous versions, but they're still supportive and comfortable. I first got Brooks for my running shoes, but after 2 knee surgeries in 6 years, I had to quit running. I'm a nurse and my Brooks are now my work shoes. I'm on my feet a lot and the 17s have been able to keep up. I'm actually considering getting a 2nd pair for my non-work shoes! I usually wear a size 7-7.5 and I always buy my Brooks in a size 8. Even though I'm not running anymore and don't necessarily need to size up to compensate, I still like the size 8.
