Awesome Brooks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shoe has the best support of any other Brooks that I own. I just love it. I have 2 knee replacements and a hip replacement. No other shoe can compare.

Ghost 17
I loved the Ghost 16 and ordered the 17 when they went on sale. When I received them they were totally different. The size was about 1 “-2” longer and very narrow. I ordered my usual size and there was no way I could wear them. I have a half marathon coming up soon so I was so disappointed! I sent them back.
I also feel like they do not last near as long as they did in the past and continue to go up in price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the cushion-y feel! Walked the mammoth march in these in the mud. They cleaned up good as new. Great shoes!

Ghost
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfort beyond my expectations. Great arch support. Of course the colors are versatile. Very happy with this style.

Good support, but overheats due to material used.
This particular sneaker is not my favorite compared to the previous one I purchased.
These sneakers have good support, but the fabric that’s used is causing my feet to overheat. I have no choice, but to return this pair.

Two Ghosts are better than one.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the white/Rose gold pair as well, that suggests I like them.

Ghosts show up.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ghost fit my feet the best, also affordable. I’m on my feet all day from time to time and have hip issues. These 17’s have been a “hip saver” for me. Love them. Oh, and they look cool, too. (I’m showing my age)
