BrooksMen's Ghost 16 Running Sneakers from Finish Line

Love Brooks Ghost shoes

I'm a walker and bike rider, this is my 4th pair of Brooks Ghost shoes (regular size). I love the inside sole support, the way my foot is supported around the heel and arch, PLUS I have enough room in the toes. Please don't change what your doing at Brooks. Thanks

Great value especially when they’re on sale.

Nice fit and cushion. Great price on sale. Probably a little heavy for a marathoner, but perfect for old 9 minute milers like me. Good stability. Only “issue” is wear on the sole, although I’ve not found any shoe that stands up any better to my moderate supination. Been a ghost fan for years.

Tighter toe box than Ghost 15

The toe box seems stiffer and less roomy than Ghost 15. Rubs the top of my big toe much more than my 15s. I preferred the Ghost 15 because I need a lot of toe room. But otherwise similar. It’s a good shoe, just not the best fit for me.

I absolutely love my Ghost 15's (got several pair of them), so my hopes were high for the 16's... But .. they are incredibly tight and uncomfortable in the width, in spite of ordering to the wide 2E version. Too bad... Returning them

If you wear them for more than 4 hours my feet would ache for days.

I bought these to replace my Adrenaline GTS. These are no where near as comfortable

Extremely Comfortable

These are the most comfortable shoes I have worn in a loooong time!

Disappointed in the 16

I’ve been a loyal Brooks Ghost runner for years, and the Ghost 12 through 15 were my perfect daily trainers. I started wearing them when I developed some Achilles tendon pain, and they were a lifesaver—comfortable, stable, and just the right amount of cushioning for my daily runs. Unfortunately, the Ghost 16 has been a real disappointment. The toe box feels noticeably smaller and snugger than previous models, and the shoe just doesn’t fit like the Ghosts I’ve trusted for years. My toes feel cramped, and the overall comfort I loved in the 12–15 series is gone. To make matters worse, after looking at the changes coming in the Ghost 17, I’m not sure what I’m going to run in now. I’ve always counted on the Ghost series as my go-to trainer, but this change in fit has me genuinely frustrated and unsure which Brooks model—if any—can replace the perfect daily trainer I had for years. I really hope Brooks considers returning to the roomier, more comfortable fit that made the Ghost a classic.
