Review on Men's Brooks Ghost πŸ‘Ÿ Running Shoe in Black and Grey by Gary Zielinski

Revainrating 2 out of 5

This pair won't last long

Maybe I'm just unlucky enough to get a pair of lemons because I've bought these shoes twice in the past and have loved them. Best running shoes I've ever had for the price (I'll stay in the 80-120 range). And I love the color and the style. But this latest pair, which I bought a few months ago but have only worn for 3 weeks, was disappointing. The fit is fine. But the mesh in the upper is starting to wrinkle and tear, which I wasn't expecting after 3 weeks of moderate use. Also, I felt moisture in the shoes on the soles of my feet/socks after walking on wet pavement and grass. So apparently there is a small crack in the sole that lets moisture through. Again, I only wear them for 3 weeks.

Pros
  • I love to land! Lots of space at the end of the bed. Excellent arch support. I loved them so much I bought my wife a pair of Brooks Ghosts!
Cons
  • Limited cushioning for people who like to run on hard surfaces.
