Solid Daily Runners

My third go around with the Ghosts after a few earlier iterations. A solid daily runner. It did *feel* a little different than previous versions of the Ghosts, maybe a bit more snug than I was used to, but once I got used to them... excellent as always.

Pillow Of Air

Where do I start...it's like walking on a pillow of air. From the moment I put them on my feet were embraced by comfort.

Light & Comfortable Shoe

Shoes arrived quickly and everything was as expected. I live this shoe for running. The shoes are very light and comfortable. Well worth the $$$.

Consistent

I had Ghost 17 GTX and loved them, was hoping that these would feel the same. They do. I win.

Great Daily Trainer

I can’t tell any real difference between this and the Ghost 17, which is a good thing. The Ghost 18 is a comfortable daily trainer. I wear out the outsoles of the heel on shoes fairly quickly, so I appreciate the thicker rubber on the outsole. It’s not a shoe that is super light or bouncy, but it’s great for those daily miles.

Great Shoes

I bought these for my husband. He walks a lot at work. He loves them. He doesn't complain with his feet hurting anymore.

Best Support Shoes

As someone who has run a couple of half marathons and multiple 10Ks, I need a daily trainer I can really rely on. I’ve put exactly 42 miles on my Ghost 18s so far—including a recent local corporate run—and they have been absolutely fantastic. The biggest difference for me is the fit. The new flat-knit tongue is a huge upgrade; it keeps my heel perfectly locked in with zero slipping. The toe box also feels slightly roomier and higher, which is a big relief when you're pushing past those early miles and your feet start to need the extra space. Underfoot, the cushioning is that reliable, stable feel you expect from the Ghost line. It isn't overly pillowy or squishy; it's just solid, protective, and easy on the joints, which I really appreciate during longer training blocks. While they aren't the lightest shoes if you're trying to set a sprint PR on the track, they are an incredibly dependable workhorse for getting your regular miles in. If you want a comfortable, durable, no-fuss shoe to train in, the 18 is a massive win. Highly recommend!

Good Running Shoe

I bought this shoe about a month ago for running. Limited use at this stage but so far so good. Happy with the purchase.

Great Shoe For Casual Wear.

Great fit and true to size. Will definitely choose Ghost 18s again.

Great Shoes, Perfect For Golf

These are great shoes! Very comfortable and good looking. I have a large foot and it is very hard to find shoes that fit properly. I was able to get these in an 11-1/2 extra wide. I actually use them as golf shoes since it is impossible to find extra wide golf shoes. These look great on the course and are more comfortable than anything other golf shoe I’ve worn. Thanks Brooks!!!

Very Nice Mid-level Running Shoe

I bought this shoe online to give it a try, after having tried them on about 16 years ago when they first came out. It's a very popular model but unfortunately does not work for my feet. It has too much medial support (under arches) which force my feet to supinate. I'll be returning them.

Excellent Shoes

Brooks never disappoint. Overall another masterpiece. I just finished walking 8 miles. These shoes are definitely comfortable. Lightweight. And pretty good looking I'm sure they will pass the durability test too.

For Me, It Has Filled The Bill For All Of My Walking Needs. Thanks!

I'm afraid that I can't help the runners in this venue as I use them strictly for walking. It is a very comfortable and stable shoe.

12e4 Is Perfekt For My Feet

Ghost 18 is terrible. Much too soft in the sole. Ghost 17 is very good so why change a winner to a looser. Generally running have gone too soft in the sole. Wish I could return the pair for something better. Put 200 miles a month on my shoes. Ghost 17 last me 600 miles or 3 months.

Comfortable

These are great shoes for walking and spending hours on my feet all day.
