Didn’t Love.

Not as comfortable as the ghost 16. I had to send them back. I wanted to love them but they just didn’t feel right.

Perfect Daily Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always loved the Hyperion shoes since I usually wear light shoes and decided to try these out due to the color options. I wear the shoe for weight training and short runs and it’s perfect. I have a wide foot and it’s not tight on my toes like everyone states on the reviews, so not sure why everyone complained about that. Maybe it’s not good for long runs? I don’t know but it’s become my daily shoe to the gym and love them. I love the shoe and will definitely buy more.

Loved the shoe, very comfortable and was like walking on a cloud. The problem I had is with the plastic toe guard (? not sure what to call it). It rubbed my big toes and caused a callous on my cuticle. Granted, this is probably due to my toes, not the design the of the shoe, but it grew to be too pain full.

Problems With Ghost 17

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have bought many pairs of Ghosts throughout the years and was looking forward to my new 17s. They killed my feet! The material is stiff on the tops and along the side the plastic around the shoelace holes make it even more stiff. There is no padding at the rim, which ended up digging into my ankle -that was the most painful. I think a few cost-saving measures have lowered the quality of the shoe. They fit good and they are very good looking, but I sure can’t wear them.

Fit Changed With New Model

I have been running with Brooks Ghost for what seems like forever. I order a new pair and they have always been great. This tine it was different. As I now understand the toe box changed. They don’t fit and I thought they just needed to be broken in for a bit. I was wrong. They are extremely tight in the toes and painful. I’ll probably see if I can find a pair of the previous model, Ghost 16.
