Why We Like The Brooks Ghost 16 Shoe

To make asphalt disappear underfoot, we lace into the Brooks Ghost 16 Shoe. This iteration features the ultralight, ultra-soft DNA Loft v3 midsole foam that takes the brunt of every strike without weighting our stride. Brooks shaved even more weight off by updating the outsole's rubber zones with a stronger compound that let them thin it out without sacrificing durability.

The shoe is a little bit narrow. I also feel like my foot hits the ground a little bit hard. I don't know if *** would be my final rating, but I'm still getting used to the shoes.

16s construction different than 15

I've had four pairs of Ghosts through the 15, and I was excited about my new Ghost 16s - I put them on and my right foot was twisted in the shoe, with my big toe pushing on the left and my heel refusing to get properly seated. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and wore them for a week to break them in, ending up with foot, calf, and hip pain on the right side after 30 miles. They were either defective, or there is something really wrong with how the 16s have been designed. I'll be buying another pair of 15s and waiting to see what happens.

Loved the style but not the fit. Doesn't fit the same as the Ghost model. Sent it back

This shoe does not have the same toe room as the Ghost model, therefore I had to send it back.

I Have Ghosts from 10 upwards and the 16 is by far the best for cushioning and longer run comfort. They feel instantly right from the first lace up.

I'm loving these kicks! Switched from ghost max to these and couldn't happier. They are a little stiffer the max but my feet couldn't be happier. The neuropathy in my toes has reduced and my knee pain reduced. I'm 6'2" 270lbs walk 5 miles 5 times per week. I use ghost 16s and adrenaline gts 23s in rotation.

Ghost 16 look especially GREAT in purple!

I am a walker. I great for incline treadmill training. I am a woman. I buy and wear my Brooks shoes in a man's 10.5. The woman's Brooks aren't for me. They just don't feel comfortable, supportive or have that just right feel on my feet. ¯\_(ツ)_/ But the best part about new Brooks is this. I wear them until they feel worn out to me. Then when my friend and her family visit from Africa, I give her husband my old Brooks. He tells me they feel brand new to him!!

This is amazing but I wear a 4E and the selections are limited for that width.

Some good, some bad

Love the comfort and support especially on longer runs. I’ve had these for approx 1.5 months and the top of the toe has already ripped. Never had this problem before so disappointing.

This is my 5th pair of the Ghost. I ordered the extra wide and like it a lot. Wish it came in more colors. I got black. I am a walker. Team them with wool socks and very comfortable at 25 degrees.
