Running on clouds
These shoes are beyond comfortable. I had Ghost 13, 14, 15, 16 and now these. I have a pair for work and a pair for everyday use. With two bad knees, the relief I feel from my Ghost is tremendous and I am able to jog much easier. I highly recommend.

First pair of the Ghost line.
This is my first pair of the Ghost line. I went from a pair of Glycerin 21's because I needed a bit more firm feel. Just got the today and put 3 miles on them with no complaints. Nice taught feel. I really like the laces on the shoe, they have these grooves on them that seem to keep them in place more. Overall, very happy and would suggest to anyone looking for a good all around shoe. I use them for light running 3-5 miles and some incline on the treadmill as well. Also, I have a wide toe-box and these were comfy on my feet!

My go to trainer for many years
Love my ghosts. I have 4 generations in my closet and the 17s are the best! Keep the new colors coming. I’ll be getting another pair soon!

walking on clouds
Been a longtime Ghost user. My 15's were awesome! had 6 pairs. the 16's, not a big fan. Been waiting for the 17 and this first pair did not disappoint. They feel like floating on clouds! In the process of ordering more now. I wear the 2E and my only disappointment with Brooks is that the color options are not great in the Wide sizes.

My favorite shoe for several years now.
I love the Ghost line up and have purchased several pairs over the years. Light weight, durable uppers wrap my foot securely, feel great on my feet. Notice that the 17’s cushion is starting to creep up in thickness which I’m not a fan of. The soles also seem to be thinning out leading to quicker wear down of the tread…. I’d like to see the 18’s tread thinkness come up and the cushion decrease. Just my opinion. Right now the Ghost is my favorite shoe.

causes blood blisters - toe box issues?
The Brooks Ghost has been my go-to shoes for the past 8 years, and I was excited to purchase the 17s. However, I started running in the Ghost 17 about 1 month ago and they immediately caused blood blisters on the outside of my big toe knuckle ... despite a thorough break-in period. Unfortunately I no longer trust the Ghost and sadly will have to find a replacement for my daily shoe.

Ghost 17 ... was a bit narrower than older models
The Ghost is my fave, go-to running shoe. I've had the 12, 13, and 14 all in a 12 EE. I love the extra room in the toe box. For me the 17 seems to run a bit narrow compared to the earlier versions. After trying a 12 EE which was too narrow, I re-ordered a 12 4E. The 4E seems to fit more like the older model (12, 13, 14) 12EE shoe. Everything else about the 17 is just what I expected, and I'm happy with the shoe in the extra wide size.

Step back from the 16's
These feel like a big step back from the Ghose 16. After a few runs, they have not gotten any more comfortable and feel a lot of irritation when moving my big toe after runs, no matter if it is 3 miles or 13.
