Comfortable, smooth and great for everyday runs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with the Ghost 17 so far. Straight out of the box they were comfortable with no break in period needed. The cushioning feels soft without being spongy and they handle longer runs just as well as shorter daily sessions. Fit is true to size with good support through the midfoot and heel, and they feel stable without being heavy. They’re a solid all round running shoe that just does everything well.

Ankle rubbed raw

I have been wearing the Ghost 16 for a few years now. I tried the Ghost 17 and had a problem with the ankle area. My ankle and the top of my foot were rubbed raw by the tongue of the shoe. I had broken them in for maybe 20 miles and I was on a long run. At about 8 miles I could feel them chafing. I stopped and re-tied them more loosely. The problem continued to get worse so I returned the shoes and bought a new pair of Ghost 16s. I don’t know if I just got a bad shoe or if it is an inherent design issue. The underside of the tongue doesn’t seem to be as soft as the Ghost 16. Other than that, the shoes seemed fine.

Impressed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ghost 17 shoes honestly exceeded my expectations. They are extremely comfortable, with excellent cushioning and great traction. I ordered my usual size, and they fit as expected. I got the solid black color and really like that they match everything. Since I got these shoes a few weeks ago, I've been wearing them every day, wherever I go. I recently wore them during a full day of walking at the zoo, and my feet felt great the whole time. I've even hiked a few trails in them (as you can tell by the photos). I've been really impressed with these shoes and would highly recommend them!

Simply The Best

The Ghost has been the very best running and walking shoe I have ever used and I have used them all! First and foremost the fit, (narrow) has been flawless. I do use an orthotic, go up half a size and the shoe is the most comfortable and functioning running and walking shoe on the market. The neutral support aided by the orthotic insert offers stable foot control, proper knee alignment and superior cushioning. There simply is no other shoe offered that provides this kind of comfort with miles of pain free running. Please offer two color styles going forward for us narrow feet runners!

Incredibly comfortable and perfect for running!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Ghost 17 shoes have been an absolute dream to wear on runs and also while slowing down and going on walks with my little ones. I wear a 9.5 and they fit true to size, my feet were somewhat sore in the first few days of wearing them but all shoes need broken in and now they are my go to’s. The black design is sleek and pairs well with even an everyday outfit. The fabric is well made and hasn’t shown any signs of wear even though it’s been my daily used shoe. I’ve always struggled finding a shoe that doesn’t cause a blister on my heel after longer runs and I haven’t had one since wearing these. I loved the cloud like feel to them while wearing them. They are 10/10 my favorite running shoes I’ve used!

Great shoes - Ghost 17

Incredibly comfortable and sturdy walking shoes - I have just bought my fourth pair & have done many many kilometres in them to maintain my health and fitness after my life in the Australian Army.

Great for running and everyday use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time trying Brook shoe brand and my husband said he is so surprise that this Ghost 17 is soft, conmfortable and suitable for standing long period of time (his job required a lot of walking and standing). The design looks simple yet great to mix match with any style of clothes. The fit is just right, not too long or narrow width, I would say it is true to size so you don't have to size up or down. The fabric feels soft and thick enough to protect feet from getting wet while running or walking under the rain. What I like the most is that the sole has thick layer of cushion to support body weight and make my husband feel confortable. Definitely recommend to everyone! One of the best shoe out there that you must try!

Brooks Ghost 17 Size 10, 2X Wide

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having worn my Ghost 17s for about a couple of weeks now, I'm impressed with the comfort and cushion the shoe provides to my daily walk/light jog. My feet are wide. I purchased the Brooks Ghost 17 size 10, 2x wide, and it fits perfectly with standard cotton athletic sox. While these shoes are not renowned for stability (like the Glycerin or Adrenaline), the neutral design seems to be working just fine. Another perk: I laced my Ghost shoes to get a decent snug fit. With that, I can simply slip my feet in and out of my Ghosts with ease. Try them and see for yourself.
