Disappointed

Disappointed. Why the high stack and too plush. What’s worse is the narrow toe box. Width was good for me but that tight toe box is horrible. I’m so disappointed. Please Brooks team take this into consideration.

Narrow Feet Need More Colors/

Can you please make more colors in narrow in both this and the Adrenaline. Why do you think people with narrow feet only like grey, black and white shoes. I am and always have been a 2 A narrow in shoes. You use to have more options for us. So jealous of those who can have fun colored shoes! I like the ghost 18 much better than the 17. Thanks for keeping them a more firmer sole on this version.

Great Colors

Have only had them a week but wearing them around the house & so comfortable!

The Best Ghost!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shoe is my favorite ghost. I’ve had ankle pain for months that I couldn’t figure out. Ran in the new Ghost today and the pain was almost non existent. The tongue doesn’t slide, the laces are perfect snd it seems re-unforced in the ankle area. My foot feels so stable but my toes can still grip. I don’t like an overly cushioned running shoes and the cushion is perfect on this shoe. I can’t wait to run in these tomorrow. I’m going to get another pair for daily use as well.

Horrible!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a brooks user since Ghost 11, I HATE GhOst 17 for narrow fit , high stack and instability , along going higher than my normal shoe size, giving me sooo many issues only to returned them all! Waited for ghost 18 for 6 months and only to be more upset with brooks than ever! This was the worst shoe ever , very rough material in the front and narrow toe box again which is horrible for wide feet and even the wide was painful which I used for one week and returned for good! I officially resigned being A Ghost fan. Luckily I kept my 15 and 14 which are tons times better than all the new editions! Brooks , I am extremely disappointed and won’t return until u bring ghost 15 back!!!!

Most Comfortable Fit

Love this sneaker. Wider toe box and lighter feel. Great to run in.

Love The 18

Love the Ghost 18. The 15 and 16 were great, the 17 was a big disappointment, but the 18’s are back to great! Super comfortable, excellent cushioning and support, and a terrific new tongue design. Hoping to see additional colors added so I can grab another pair.

No Room For The Toes

Was hopeful that these would be a return to the roomier toe box. I was wrong. They are tight in the toe more so than other brands I have looked into recently. I kept waiting for these to be released believing the hints of a return to the Ghost 16 roomy toe area. Unfortunately, these are being returned.

New Ghost

I love the new ghost runners. So Comfortable and supportive. The tongue fits snuggly and great to run in or the gym.

Give Me Color And Arch Support Please!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ghost 17 was bad, was hoping this was better. It isn't. Why does brooks dislike wide/2e feet??? Why is arch support suddenly hard to find??? Bring back ghost 14&15!!!!! And more colors for wide/2e we deserve fun colors if we are buying your shoes!!!!!!!

Disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I preordered the ghost 18, hoping it would be more like the ghost 16 as the 17 was a disappointment. The 18 had something rubbing in the inner side of the left shoe. The arch didn’t feel as supportive as previous models. Color was good but I returned the shoes. Please bring back the 16 model as the toe box and support were great

Brooks For The Win.

For years I wore ASICS. However, my feet slightly grew and aaics no longer felt right. I love my brooks. I love the bounce. I love the lack of fatigue. I wish I would have switched sooner.

First Brooks Returned

I’ve ordered the ghost several times over the years, this is the first pair I haven’t been happy with. They fit larger than prior iteration and I prefer my old pair. Sad to say going back.

Ghost 18 Is My Favorite!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased w/new Ghost 18! Ordered peach/gray/purple vs. the darker orange offered. I luv this lighter blended color. Took photo showing how well the new slimmer tongue looks w/ Brooks socks—more comfortable, too. With the softer cushion in sole, I barely feel my high arch supports. I’m borderline Med/Wide. Ghost 17 Med fit tight in toe box, & Wide fit too loose. The Ghost 18 Med must be slightly wider in toe, as fits perfectly & not too tight. Overall, the Ghost 18 is my favorite Ghost right out of the box!
