I have 12 pairs of Brooks Ghost, ranging from version 14-16. I was excited about the new maroon color so I ordered it and a black with white Brooks logo. The are horrible! I have never returned Brooks shoes other than for the color. but these are going back. These feel like combat boots. Honestly that are so stiff and height around the ankles. They are completely different than the previous models. I feel like the fabric is stiffer too. Why make such drastic changes to a popular shoe like the Ghost? You have taken away my favorite shoe. I live in my Ghosts. They are the only shoe I wear due to planter facilitates. I love Brook shoes and the service, but I am afraid I will have to go to a new brand now. That will be hard.

I’ve historically been a Ghost fan and marathon trained in my Ghost 16s very comfortably. However this model consistently gives me blisters when I do any speed work. It feels like the depth of the shoe is less than in the previous model and the junction between the mesh and the sole pinches the ball of my foot (despite getting a Wide). The 17 is still fine for easy runs up to a 10k distance, but something about the mechanics of tempo work doesn’t sit right.

This is not as comfortable fit as the Ghost 16. The cushioning Is the best aspect of the 17. Ghosts are my go to shoe for walking and hiking. The 17 can't compare to the previous ghost shoes. I actually will be returning them. Very disappointed. Also, the toe box doesn't seem to he as roomy as the 16.

Love These Shoes
I have been running for years and thought it was just normal to have some foot pain afterward. I got these shoes two or three weeks ago and have been amazed at how comfortable they are. I should have switched to Brooks long ago.
