Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Brooks Ghost 12: Unleash your running potential with the ultimate footwear by Danny Rogers

Revainrating 3 out of 5

They fit differently than previous versions of the Ghost

For the last few versions (Ghost 10, 11) I've been wearing Ghost Mid-Wide 9.5s. In the past, I could count on amazing cushioning, a roomy insole, and no break-in period every time I bought a new pair in this size. Based on that prior experience, I ordered a 9.5 Medium Ghost 12. While trying on the shoes, I noticed that while the length of the shoe was as expected, the toe box felt a little less roomy and the insole and saddle felt narrower in the midfoot area than previous versions. . When I went jogging, my pinky fingers were numb and I had pain in my legs that I had never experienced with previous Ghosts. I'll try them with lace-up shoes for a wide foot, but if that doesn't work I'll go to a running store to find the right fit. Maybe I need the Ghost 12 in a different size/width, or maybe this version of Ghost just isn't for my feet.

Pros
  • Rubber sole
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
