[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the sneakers but the size 13 feels larger than the 13 I had with the Beast 25 sneakers I had previously. I will have to send them back and try a 12.5 instead.

Very comfortable fit. I bought the narrow width and the fit is very good. It has been a while since I have worn the Ghost. I like this color option. Options are few with the narrow width shoes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had Brooks running shoes over the past several years and I only use them for my workout at the gym. Comfortable and easy on the feet whether on the treadmill, stationary bike or elliptical. The Ghost 18 are my second Ghost pair. And I purchased them for the reasons noted. The shoes are comfortable the moment I put them on. And having had some minor foot issues earlier in life, they provide the comfort and stability that I enjoy and appreciate. The wear well and are at a good price point for the quality of shoe. I don't have any issues with them and when this pair of Ghost 18 need replaced, I will return to the Brooks product. I'm 74 years old and maybe these shoes help keep me young.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not a huge fan of the new tongue. It stretches and flexes to much, causing my foot to move and feel less secure in the shoe. At least that’s the feeling I’m getting each time. I’ve adjusted the tightness of the laces. Still no improvement.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got my Ghost over any other brand for walking since it has been my brand for the past 15 years. From the first walk, I started having discomfort and soreness in the lower part of my feet around mile 4. The following two were also with pain in the feet. What a disappointment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hi Brooks Team The laces holes are too small. Some of us like changing out the laces on our new Brooks running shoes. The holes have gotten smaller going from ghost 17 to 18 and the lace tips hardly fit through without great difficulty. It would be appreciated if on the next version of Ghost 18 (without making any changes that affect biomechanics like offset etc.) but enlarge the lace holes so we can easily change our laces more easily. Thank you Sincerely, Henry Girolamo Medford, MA 02155

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As usual the Ghost 18 comes through once again. Not a better shoe around for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have plenty of shoes for various activities but for me the Ghost 18 is my walker. Fit was perfect out of the box. I dont think about them when they are on as they become basically invisible with zero hot spots or distracting issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are great, they fit comfortably and have been great for long runs or normal walking days. These are my third pair of Ghosts and I highly recommend them to anyone who wants long lasting comfort and stability in their running shoes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Personally, I’m a fan of the Ghost 17 over the 18. Sorry, but it’s true. I think the mesh and overall upper on the 17 was superior because it felt like it could dual as both a running and loungewear shoe. The 18’s “shiny” upper gives it unwanted glistening in the sunlight and sometimes can be blinding during runs. I do think the colorways are strong this year, though. I picked up this beige-cream color and it goes well when I wear it in the clinic. They’re still very comfortable for all-day patient care!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've run in Ghost's for many years. The 18 is great, as always. The only downside I've experienced so far is the thin shoe tongue - I'm used to more padding there. The overall cushion, stability and general feel of the shoe is great - as I've come to expect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Left foot has had pain/ache since running in this pair. Never had an issue with earlier Ghost models. Pain is on the side of the left foot at the base of the 5th metatarsal. Feels almost like a bone bruise but likely more a peroneal tendonitis.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very happy with these shoes. Feels great on my feet. Price is still high for a pair of shoes, but overall a shoe for walking on my treadmill.
