Great shoe except it's too narrow......Extra wide please Brooks!
I had a brain injury, so I've gone through 18 pairs of shoes looking for a shoe that gives me stability, good ground feel, a stack height that provides cushion but not too much, a heel drop of 8mm or less, and something that's not squishy.....This was the perfect shoe but does not come in Extra Wide. Way too narrow! C'mon Brooks, just create extra wide sizes for all your shoes! I'm so disappointed because I love Brooks and absolutely love this shoe.

Not a Caldera Replacement
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried the Ghost Trail as a Caldera replacement (since the Calderas are discontinued), but they did not work for me. The toe box is much more narrow than the Caldera, which is a shame because other than that (and the feeling of instability that comes with it), the Ghost Trail felt great. The search continues for a Caldera replacement.

Mixed feelings
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable fit, but the shoe strings are way too long. This shoe is perfect for dry, compact trails, but if there’s any bit of mud, prepare the be slipping and sliding all over the place.

Nice basic trail shoe
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally a trail shoe that doesn't have a lot of extra heavy useless stuff on it. It does provide good cushioning and traction. The pointy rocks might still poke your feet a bit but the performance makes up for that. All we need is good grip, a little cushion and fast drying.

A beautiful shoe. I have worn them to the gym and out on the town to dinner and social gatherings. I have gotten so many compliments.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoe is absolutely marvelous. The comfort and fit are beyond reproach. I feel as if I am walking on a cloud. A truly great experience.

Great Running Shoes
These shoes are QUITE stylish, not that I look for style, but a few individuals commented on them. They fit nicely, took awhile to break them in, as it is with most shoes. They can take some damage too, was surprised that they DIDNT show visible wear after some runs on tougher terrain.
