Perfect fit AND color
I am 70 yrs old and my foot type requires a neutral shoe for my daily +2 mile walks. This Black/Hushed Violet Ghost 13 is the perfect color for me personally: I have been waiting for a black Brooks Ghost WITHOUT being totally stark black or black with stark white soles. The Hushed Violet is subtle, more like soft grey, true to the pictures posted. The Ghost 13 continues to have a comfortable toe box for my bunions. It will easily accommodate prescription orthodics. My orthopedist highly recommended the Brooks Ghost 10 yrs ago and I have worn them since...even more so, since I have had injuries wearing slip-on shoes when I should not have: have had a torn left anterior tibialis tendon and developed a torn meniscus in my right knee while recovering from that my foot injury! I am thankful Brooks Ghost started coming in more neutral colors since Ghost 11, since I wear them for most all occasions every day, all day now.
