Best for Support

Brooks Ghost 17

Brooks Ghost is a Reddit staple for walkers who need reliable support and a wide toe box. Consistently recommended alongside Hoka as one of the two dominant walking shoe picks in community discussions.

$130-$150
Pros
  • Wide toe box praised by walkers with wider feet
  • Excellent cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Dual-purpose: works well for both walking and running
  • Consistently recommended across multiple Reddit walking threads
Cons
  • Some Reddit users (Saucony fans) were not impressed with Brooks
  • Pricier than budget options
  • Less maximalist cushioning than Hoka for those who want extreme padding
Why we recommend it

The Ghost is the safe, smart pick — it's been a community favorite for years and the wide toe box makes it a lifesaver for anyone who's struggled to find comfortable shoes.

I have pretty wide feet and have found Hokas and Brooks Ghost to have the roomiest to box and dreamy cushioning.
