[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been running/walking (living in) Brooks Ghost 16s for 2 years or more. I have several pairs and LOVE them. I was planning to LOVE the 17s, but they're a step backwards for me. The cushioning is still great. But the cut is higher on the ankle and actually digs in a little and causes me some irritation on both sides. (This never happened on the 16s and caught me completely off-guard). The tongue is also cut differently and I have to adjust it more. They just not as comfortable ... not on in terms of the cushion, the foot strike or even the slightly increase in the thickness of the sole ...but in terms of the shape/cut of the fabrics involved in the upper. I'm beyond sad about this. I still give them a 4 out of 5 because I think the construction of the sole is still great and I love the feel of it. But I don't think I'll be able to buy another pair and might use my new ones primarily for walking. I think I'd have blisters near the ankle if I ran marathon length or significant long runs in them. And that is truly sad considering my love affair with the 16s. (NOTE: BROOKS, I HOPE YOU'RE READING THIS AND CAN CHANGE THEM BACK TO A LOWER CUT AROUND THE ANKLE AND A ROUNDER TONGUE!!). Thank you! (I also wore Brooks Launch for at least 10 years ... so long-time fan).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brooks are not as comfortable as they used to be. I have about 18 pairs of Brooks. Some old and some not so old. The older ones ( even ones from last year), for much better. They seem to run smaller and narrower even within a year or two of the same model.
