Ghost 17 Wide Running Shoe offers soft cushioning and extra room for smooth, supported miles
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"The wide fit makes all the difference—no more pressure on my toes or arch. The cushioning is super smooth underfoot, especially in the heel, and it holds up really well on longer efforts. A go-to daily trainer for sure."
With the Brooks Ghost 17 Wide Running Shoe, we get the same trusted comfort and performance of the original Ghost 17, now with an accommodating fit that gives our feet the extra space they need. Whether we have naturally wider feet or simply want more wiggle room, this version provides the plush feel and stability we count on for high-mileage training.
The updated cushioning in the heel and forefoot works with Brooks' DNA LOFT v2 midsole to create an effortlessly smooth ride. Combined with a structured engineered mesh upper and a 10mm drop for balanced transitions, the Ghost 17 Wide is ready to keep us comfortable from first mile to last.

Review Summary
Customer Images
Here's what customers have to say
The updated Brooks Ghost 17 running shoes have received a mixed response. Some users appreciate the increased cushioning and responsive ride, while others are disappointed by the narrower toe box, higher heel, and changes to the overall fit and comfort level. Several reviewers found the shoes to feel stiffer, less flexible, and less supportive compared to previous models, leading to issues like heel slippage and foot/leg pain. However, some users reported excellent cushioning and support, especially for everyday wear. The updated styling was also praised by some.

First time Brooks Ghost Owner
First time I've purchased a Brooks product, and so far have liked the looks, how it feels, didn't have to break in, and confirmed by my podiatrist & PT this was a good shoe to help my overall health.

Long Time Ghost User
I have been wearing the Ghost's since they were the Ghost 10. I wore the 16s and loved them. Lightweight but solid cushioning. Multifunctional, just fabulous overall. The 17s don't have that feeling at all. I have a theory that the models that are even numbers are awesome, amazing, fabulous, fit like a glove. The odd numbered models... just aren't it. This is narrow, stiff, and just doesn't have the OG ghost feel to it. I feel like I get on here to review the odd numbered models and go "bring back the Ghost 16!"
