Why We Like The Brooks Ghost 16 Shoe

Now lighter and plusher, the Brooks Ghost 16 Shoe gives us our most comfortable ride yet. This iteration features a full-length, nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 midsole foam for a smoother, softer ride that has us gliding through transitions for an effortless flow. To cut even more weight, the outsole features thinner rubber zones that are just as durable thanks to the new, rugged compound.

My favorite!

Love this shoe for walking in my neighborhood. This is my 5th or 6th pair. I’ve tried other brands but always come back to Brooks. My favorite pair.

Not as Good as Ghost 15

Not a bad shoe but I don't like the new look and it's not near as supportive or comfortable as my Ghost 15 in Black/Blackened Pearl/White. I specify the color because I have bought the same style in different colors and they feel differently so I stick with what works now. The shoe sizing runs the same although it feels a little bit wider at the top of the foot. I definitely wouldn't pay that much for this one again.

The Ghost are my favorite shoes and I buy every model. My question is why did you change the shoe strings to be so short for the Ghost 16? I understand why there were changes as they would come loose easily in the previous models. However, for the price we are paying we need longer shoe strings. I have arthritis and need to lace my shoes different then the normal way. The Ghost 16 does not allow me to do this. I know I am not the only person who changes the way they lace their shoes. The shoe strings are to short. I now have to purchase longer shoe strings. Please include longer shoe strings in the future. Thank you

Not the same as all my other ghosts

I was so excited for some new colors and styles of the ghost shoe. The ghost is ALWAYS my go to running shoe. Even when I try others I always go back to my tried and true ghost. The 16 felt different right from the box. It isn’t as soft and cushioned and it is narrower. I gave it a try anyways and didn’t love it but I refused to base it off of one run. Tried it again and had leg pains that night. Still didn’t think it was the shoe so I went back to my 15’s on my next few runs and had no pain. I then tried the 16 again and again had weird pains in my legs. It’s a shame because I love the design of the shoe and because they are not cheap. I will have to keep buying 15s until they come out with a 17 and hopefully go back to the old formula. Why change something that is a sure thing? Just update the colors and designs and not the make please!

Brooks are the best running shoes I have ever used. This is now my third pair and I love them just as much as the first two pairs.

My new favorite sneaker

I received the ghost 16 color: Surf/flower/whitecap (limited edition) as a gift and I absolutely love them. Not only do they look great but they feel great. These are my second pair of Brooks sneakers and they have quickly become my favorite sneaker brand for comfort, support & for both fashion & fitness.
