Have this one in blue color. They fit perfectly on my feet and have a good suport. Very very light weight. Any problems with care. Great!
One of my favorite. An engineered mesh upper impressed me. Thanks to this feature the are super airy and breathable. I feel excellent support. Perfect!!!
I purchased the Brooks because I’ve been diagnosed with plantar fascilitis and these shoes were recommended. The support in these shoes is awesome with no need for additional inserts. They are lightweight and super cute.
Ghost 8’s were very comfortable but my big toe eventually poked a hole in the mesh on several pairs. 9’th model has not such problem.
I’ve tried several other brands, like Nike, adidas but nothing even comes close! It’s like running on tiny little pillows. Awesome!!!
Ghost line of Brooks shoes is something amazing! I have owned 2 of them. Ghost 8 and now 10. All they are perfect. The toe box is wide enough for me (I have wide feet). Breathable and haven’t any smell.
