Comfortable but not Durable
The Ghost 17 is a great shoe when new but wears out very quickly, much more than previous Ghost releases. I’m hoping that the Ghost 18s are better.

I love Brooks Ghosts. And these have all the cushioning and support I need.

Bought them 3 months ago and they are cozy but so loud! It's like the soles are hard plastic. You definitely won't be a ghost walking around

I bought the shoes for work because they were supposed to be great walking shoes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Getting back into running with perfect shoe- the Ghost 17! 12.5 EE never fit so great. My feet feel super - I never say OUCH while running or the next day! Will definitely not hesitate to get the Ghost 18 after these give me a few more miles.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, its a great fit and very comfortable. I use mainly for cross fit type workouts and in the gym. The shoe performs well for those activities and I haven't experienced any issues. Light running is involved as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm primarily a trail runner but after my wife picked up a pair of these and really enjoyed them, I decided to give these a try since we occasionally hit the pavement on our runs. I ordered the wide and my true size. This turned out to be a good fit for me. I put a short 3 miles in on them before our 5 mile race the next day. I really noticed how cushioned the heel felt during my stride. I felt the stack height was good and not too tall. Good, medium feel cushion that allowed me to still feel the ground while being comfortable. I normally run a zero drop but these just fine. For someone who's messed up every joint in their body from their younger snowboard days, these were surprisingly nice to run in and I was able enjoy my runs without cringy knee or ankle discomfort. I definitely will get another pair to replace these when it's time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ghost series has been a great performer and the Ghost 17 didn’t disappoint. The shoes were extremely comfortable (right out of the box) and provided exceptional cushioning. I love the styling and I will continue to recommend this shoe to fellow runners.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Ghost 17 is one of the most comfortable running shoes I’ve owned. They fit true to size, have great cushioning, and provide a smooth, supportive ride. They were comfortable from the first run with little to no break-in period. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable daily running shoe!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always purchased Brooks Ghost, and these are very good. Not the best pair I have ever had, but a solid pair. It took me a few runs to break them in, but a good shoe overall!

Long time wearing the ghost. Returned several pairs bought. Toe bed much narrower than previous models. Very uncomfortable. Wish I could buy the 15’s again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use these shoes for my daily jogs. The cushioning feels good to me and they hold my foot nicely, not squishy, but not to firm either. Most of my running is done on paved rail trails and so far, theses shoes handle it pretty well. I switch between mid-foot and heel strike depending on my fatigue level.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect fit, 12 wide. Extremely comfortable for working on concrete. I walk between 5 and 6 miles a day on concrete and my feet don’t hurt or swell.
