They are soft and durable and give me strength with every step I take and I feel safe in my knees and my lower back rests when walking and standing.

I love it! It’s so comfortable and feels so good!

A return to a better time, ie this shoe is a lot like my ghost 12 gtx’s (black with dark blue trim) which to date are my favorite generation of this shoe… They went back to a higher quality lace. The cushion and rebound are also a reverted improvement while still maintaining a firm feel. The fit is ever so slightly snugger around the heel and in general. I’m also hoping to see a return to more consistent performance in wet conditions.

I bought two pairs, one for exercise walk on rainy days and one for morning rounds of golf when the ground is wet from dew and sprinklers. The shoes are very comfortable, but after only a few uses are not waterproof. Comfort, but wet feet dont cut it. Im returning both pairs.

I bought two pairs, one for exercise walks on rainy mornings and one for morning rounds of golf when the ground is wet from dew or sprinklers. The shoes are comfortable, but did not keep my feet dry beyond the first few uses. Ill be returning both pairs.

So comfortable. And I love the black Can easily be worn with jeans and a dressy shirt.

The only reason I give these shoes a 3 star rating and not higher is because they do not let me feet breath. My shoes never smell but these have made my socks smell. I love the fit and comfort of the shoe and was stoked that they were gore tex. But after 2 weeks I feel let down.

Good for running or walking. Cushion is about right maybe a touch on the softer side.

I love my Ghost 15 shoes because they are available in 2E. (Have 5 pairs) These are not, but I needed a waterproof pair so I planned to give them a try walking in Europe. They were too tight. Never had a chance to wear them in the rain, so I can only hope that next time I need a waterproof shoe, they will keep my feet dry and I will just frustratingly put up with them being too tight. I wish the Brooks engineers would create a waterproof 2E. I would be the first in line to order!

My husband and I each bought a pair of these for a 3 week trip to Italy. They were very comfortable and almost felt like a hiking shoe the way they hugged the trails when we were out hiking. They did great in the rain and in the slippery stones in Venice and Cinque Terre. We highly recommend them.

I bought the Ghost GTX while my wife bought the regular Ghost (no Gore-Tex). We spent a week in rainy Japan and although I had the GTX, my feet were much more soaked than my spouse’s. We walked through no puddles so I would expect the Gore-tex shoes to be drier than then the non GTX. I will be moving to the regular Ghost as they are very comfortable and kept me walking for miles.

Ordered same size as previous (non-GTX) pair. Smaller and uncomfortable fit. Next size would be too large.

First off the Ghost 16 GTX seems to run small. I ordered my normal size 12 and the right show was narrow and tight. The left seemed fine. I have been wearing Brooks for around d20 years from Ravennas Adrenelines, Glycerins and even Addiction walkers. This is the first time a 12 did not fit perfectly.
So I ordered a 12.5 and they fit better. Feel great so far. So think about the material of the GoreTex liner when ordering.

Pricey, but worth it.
Very comfortable and waterproof.

Much better than Ghost 15 GTX. Better fit, not as rigid, more cushioning.

My previous running shoes were the Brooks Levitate and I had been quite pleased, but after many miles, it was time to replace them. I decided to splurge on this Ghost 16 GTX and could not be happier. I feel light and great on my feet, and they feel more supportive on my knees. Very happy with this purchase.

Was impressed with the waterproof aspect, and the arch was just enough.

Bought a regular Ghost 16 and decided to try the waterproof Ghost 16 for golf. I walk and carry for 18 holes. Great shoes for golf no real issues for traction.

Good shoe.
Great in the cold.
It would be helpful to have a wide 2E version.
Very helpful.
Randall P –
Very comfortable and perfect for walking around in wet grass. I walk 5 miles every morning and don’t have any issues. I wore the regular Ghost 15 previously which was my first pair of Brooks. Those corrected a lot of issues I had with my back and knee.

I have worn nothing but Ghosts for years. They were the best fitting and most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I don’t know what changes you have made to the Ghost 16, but the fit was very different and really tight through the toe box. The fit was nothing like the Ghost 15 and it’s predecessors. I am so disappointed. I can’t imagine why you would change a shoe that has been so successful for so long.

Nice shoe. Much better than the ghost Max…it felt weird.

Same great quality I have grown to expect from my Brooks running shoes. I have been running with Brooks Ghost for more than 10 years. The feel is a bit different with the GTX…the upper is a bit more stiff than the traditional Ghost. The shoe tongue is less padded and detracts slightly from the over all comfort. Having the GTX for certain weather conditions is worth the trade offs.

Fit great, just like the Ghost 16. I did go up 1/2 size. Ive put a little over 50 miles on these spanning 12 runs. I reserve them for cold, snowy, sloppy days and they work great. No water gets in. No more dodging slush puddles. I plan to also wear them on rainy days but I live in Michigan and we in our snowy season.

this is a very stable shoe. It feels slightly narrow, but it really distributes the weight across your foot. I live in an area where there is snow on the ground a lot of the time and so I really appreciate the Gore-Tex finish on this shoe. I use it mainly for walking. I had an ACL reconstruction surgery nine months ago and I walk across mud and unstable ground in the forest near where I live when I wear the ghost 16 gtx I am very confident that I will not slip.
