Almost As Good As 22’s Except For Tongue Tab

The 23 would have been 5 stars if not for the fact they removed the shoe tongue hook/tab!! I’m old and I really used that tab to help pull the tongue back up when putting on the shoes. Otherwise, the 23’s feel better than my old 22’s. But Brooks please add the finger hook back!

Serious Upgrade From My Old Ghosts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a Ghost devotee for years, but recently gave these a shot after a running slump... looking for a shoe with a bit more bounce & responsiveness. These fit the bill! Very comfortable, true to size, chic color, exactly what I was looking for. Nice details to the design as well - the heel loop for pull-on and the lace style - all very thoughtful and comfortable. Super happy with these! Brooks again for the win.

New Design - Not In A Good Way

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really disappointed. They added this bumper inside by the heel that just rubs your ankle the wrong way. It’s uncomfortable and causes blisters. I was excited for a new pair since I been wearing glycerins for years but they sadly were returned.

Overly Cushy Shoe

I have had Brooks Ghost models for several years. I could do anything with them including Pickelball. They were stable and maneuverable. Granted, I have a bunion and a hammertoe issue, so few shoes are really comfortable, but the Glycerin has way too much rubber for me and seems more like a Hoka. Although that might be a plus for some, the shoe does not let you feel the ground and lateral moves are a bit more clunky.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After doing all the research I landed on this brand and decided to try these out, since I’ve been wearing some old new balances for walks/runs and those didn’t provide a whole lot of support I figured it was time to upgrade. I tried them on at home, the fit was nice and cushiony. I’m between 61/2-7 so I ended on a size 7. Not sure if I’m supposed to break these but I went on a 2 mile (pretty flat terrain) and my feet were uncomfortable, my calf’s were hurting. Just pain in different places & I ended up with a blister on the heel of my right foot. Has never happened with any other shoe. Will be giving them another shot but already not impressed for the high prices.
