What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Generously padded, breathable upper with a locked-in heel fit that feels comfortable from the first run
- Stable, well-cushioned ride that suits neutral runners and mild overpronators equally
- Thick, soft outsole rubber delivers reliable grip on slick and wet surfaces
Reviewers push back
- DNA Loft V2 midsole returns little energy, making the shoe feel flat and uninspiring at faster paces
- Heavy construction due to extensive rubber outsole coverage
- Non-gusseted tongue allows lateral tongue movement during runs
A comfortable, reliable daily trainer with a plush upper and stable ride, let down by limited energy return and a high heel-to-toe drop that divides opinion.
Where reviewers split on Ghost 15: Midsole firmness vs. softness is contested: some reviewers find the ride firmer than the previous version, while one reviewer describes it as noticeably softer and more flexible
