I have been wearing a pair of Ghost 2 for years. It was still going strong, but I figured that pair must be well past its recommended life by now and a new pair of shoes was in
order. After a lot of conversation with Brooks representatives via the chat feature on the website, I bought 3 pairs of shoes to compare: Trace 2, Trace 3, and Ghost 15. Both
pairs of Trace shoes were beautiful but didn't provide the fit and comfort I was hoping for (reviewed separately and will be returned). The Ghost 15 were comfortable, and I

This doesn't mean its a bad shoe, in fact, its also obvious that its as well made as ever, the upper seemed as though it would be well ventilated and the midsole cushion was just right; its just wider than it used to be. What about getting a narrow? Sure, however the colorway is severely limited and as is availability. So, my feedback is that if you have a narrow foot, ask, beg, Brooks to offer more color choices in narrow widths or hope that the last returns to a more narrow shape. If the shoe fits, buy it, its a fantastic shoe, but it still has to fit to be worth it.

The difference may well be simply that I am so accustomed to the older shoes that nothing would feel entirely right in comparison, but the Ghost 15 is very close and I think in time it will be a worthy successor. I got the black, which is necessary for some of my activities, so I can't say they are beautiful in the sense that colored shoes are, but they are handsome, and I have received compliments on them.The shoes fit well, even with an orthotic inserted, and are comfortable all day. Importantly, they provide adequate room for my toes, which many shoes do not. I do exercise in them, indoors. Running isn't part of my life (I'm elderly, and running is a thing of the past), but walking certainly is, and these cause no pain. Sometimes when my feet swell, the shoe laces become too tight and bruise the tops of my feet, but that is inevitable in laced shoes that don't stretch. Overall I'm pleased with the Ghost 15.

In my opinion, there are far too many Brooks variations that revolve around black/are monochrome/or incorporate weird color pairings that don't match well together. Make these shoes more cool/vibrant/stylish and I think people wouldn't even look in the direction of other shoe makers, because in my opinion you make the best shoes, they just don't look the best.

Brooks have changed the shoe. Big problem when ordering online.I have been ordering my Brooks Beast and now Brooks Ghost for years and they have been always reliably the same sit.However, Brooks have made some changes and I had to return the runner, the same size and width I have had for TEN years.The new one is 1cm longer! It felt and looked like the runners were like surfboards on my feet. Also the width now feels MUCH wider even much wider than my OLD worn runners which are worn every day all day for 1 year. So, whilst I love the generous fit and all, it means I now have to try and find a runner that actually fits my feet.

BACKGROUND: 63 year old female, with narrow feet, who started running 12 years ago. I tried a couple other brands of shoes, but nothing compares to Brooks Ghost. My first pair was Ghost 4 and I have continued with them ever since! I went from wearing Brooks shoes (Ghost and Glycerin) only for running, to now wearing them every day for casual wear. I've had plantar fasciitis and foot injuries as I've aged, so now I take brisk walks instead of running, and no other shoes make my feet feel this good. My doctor and podiatrist both wear Ghost daily in their jobs (on their feel all day) and recommend them for proper support and comfort.PROS: Fit like a glove!

My doctor and podiatrist both wear Ghost daily in their jobs (on their feel all day) and recommend them for proper support and comfort.PROS: Fit like a glove! Very comfortable amount of cushioning with good support. The 12 mm drop in Ghost is also preferable for plantar fasciitis. For the perfect fit, I've always ordered Brooks shoes a full size larger than my dress shoes. Ghost is one of only a handful of brands/models made in a narrow width, which I need. The narrow width keeps my foot snug from sliding, but there is still ample toebox room, so no pinching or rubbing there, even when my feet get hot or swollen. I love the blue (peacoat) color on my Ghost 15, as I wear jeans most of the time and they go great with them. So often, any narrow shoes only come in plain black, so I love when there are good color options. Wish there were more color choices in narrow!CONS: A couple of the changes I've seen with Brooks shoes over the years have been disappointing:(1) is in the vertical interior back part of the heel. Old models of Brooks shoes had sturdier (but still soft and comfortable) fabric, a bit over an inch wide, inserted in the vertical back of the inside heel. That was discontinued and since then, shoes just have the very fine lining fabric throughout the inside. This fine fabric wears out quickly in the heel area from the heel rubbing against it, and I've developed holes through it and the padding underneath in other Ghost models, sometimes within the first 100 miles. It hasn't happened yet with this pair, but I don't have many miles on them yet. Please bring back the sturdier fabric insert in the heel lining!2) the shoelaces. I loved the shoelaces on old models that were round and a bit stretchy. I never had to re-tie them, nor replace them. Though these flat laces on the Ghost 15 are a big improvement over earlier ribbon laces that were slick and untied constantly, they aren't are good as the old rounder laces.OVERALL: I highly recommend Brooks shoes. For me, Ghost and Glycerin models in narrow width, provide the perfect fit and comfort all day! Thank you, Brooks, for making narrow shoes that my feet love!

I'm not a runner I'm a walker and these shoes are wonderful! They were comfortable right out of the box. They have good cushioning and are a delight to walk in. I did have to do a little 'running' to get out of the way of someone while wearing these shoes and I thought 'Hey these are nice running shoes too!' Running/walking either way you are good to go. I've worn Brooks shoes for years and have been very happy with them. I have a pair of the waterproof ones for my rainy day walks. I even use them walking in the snow/ice - I attach my 'spike strips' to them and they work great! I've noticed in the last two years reviews have suggested that you order 1/2 size up - I heeded this advice and was glad I did otherwise I think they would have been a bit too small. I've ...

I've noticed in the last few years the shoelaces weren't long enough and didn't want to stay tied. I can report the shoelaces on this shoe are long enough, however they still come untied. I make a point to really cinch them down, but they still come untied fairly frequently. I may have to do the double knot routine which solves the problem, but it's a hassle. I hope Brooks in the future will have some blueish teal colored shoes, I always look for that color first. My second choice is a blue color of some sort. I got the 'Pea Coat' navy blue color this time which looks great with jeans.Here's the bottom line - you will be happy with the Ghost 15. Give it a try.

I’m unsure how much the shoe played into it but currently when wearing the Brooks vs wearing some of my other shoes I can feel more stress on my ATFL. This may be entirely psychological.To sum it up: there are some sizing issues for me; possible increased ankle instability secondary to combination of heel height with low rim around ankle but I can’t say that for certain; the shoes fee okay but not great to run in (possibly need more time); they look nice.

I run maybe 2 times per week, around 2-4 each time, mostly on Central Park trails. Plus, I do a great deal of NYC walking-around 5 miles per day. This is my second pair of Ghost sneakers. I tried other Brooks sneakers but believe the Ghost are best for me. The Ghost 15 provide terrific cushion but you don't (and I like this) feel like you are walking on pillows. The cushioning is unassuming. Sneakers are light and responsive. I plan on sticking with Ghosts moving forward. I don't remember the last time I had foot discomfort. I think I finally found a sneaker brand! My wife--who had two bunion surgeries-also wears Brooks. She likes more stability and cushion so sticks with Adrenaline. She too loves her sneakers. Thank you Brooks for making a terrific product.PS - ... MoreI run maybe 2 times per week, around 2-4 each time, mostly on Central Park trails.

A man seated next to me complimented my grey Ghosts. I thanked him and then noticed the he was wearing the same pair! We both agreed that the Ghosts were very comfortable. While in Portugal we were walking 12-15 miles per day and the Ghosts were there for me each step of the way!

That is all we run in.However, Brooks Team, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give us the full 25 options in the other cool colors in a 10 wide (2E) so Im not stuck with just black for years now....lol.However, I have noticed a trend now in Brooks. Seems they are very limited when it comes to wide shoes.

I never look down at my feet since I started wearing Ghost with discomfort. Ghost shoes have been great for me and it's hard to stray away from something great. However, every couple of years the shoe sizing changes just like most manufacturers do, but we wait until they bring back what we like again. My complaint and only complaint just like many of the reviews I read is color selection. I drool over the many other colors offered but not for those who wear 2E and 4E.

The selection is between black and white basically. I know that Brooks can't offer every color that they would in regular fitting shoes but I know it could improve. Year after year with everyone complaining about shoe color selection, nothing done about it. We're just asking to open the color gap a little more. It's look and feels like we thrown scraps and left over colors. I know the company doesn't believe this and it is not their view, but persons with wider feet are not deformed or handicapped, We just have wider feet. I just believe the company can do better in color selection and still make the same profits, if not more. Anything would be an improvement. I realize you can't get what everybody wants and desires. I like really wild and bright colors. I would settle for in between colors. Anything besides the year-after-year selection. Currently, there's many options with black and white colors and combinations that are not available in 2E or 4E that are available in regular sizes. Thanks a good product & and thanks for listening.
