A Tried-and True Daily Driver, Now With a Refined Upper

Brooks’ well-loved daily trainer is back for its 18th iteration, boasting the same reliable comfort and stability with some minor tweaks to improve all-around comfort.

Like previous Ghost iterations, the Ghost 18 features a moderate stack of nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 foam. This cushioning is designed to balance softness with responsiveness, offering stable and comfortable landings with dynamic toe-offs. And with a high 10 mm offset, you can enjoy plenty of extra protection and cushioning in the heel.

Underfoot, you can expect the same familiar and stable feel found in previous versions of the Ghost. However, the model saw some major upgrades when it comes to the upper design. A breathable air mesh upper material wraps the foot and provides a secure and supportive fit throughout all your daily miles. The flexible flat knit tongue is another new and improved element, offering a comfortable fit and reducing pressure around the top of the foot.

Enjoy even more confidence and protection during your runs with the durable RoadTack rubber outsole. This grippy outsole ensures you have all the grip and durability you need to enjoy the newest Ghost for mile after mile.

My daily go-to

I love these shoes for my daily runs. They have the perfect amount of cushion and they’re extremely comfortable, even on those longer miles. I keep going back to these!

Brooks Ghost - NOT the same shoe!

Marathon Sports is still the best, but if you're a longtime Brooks customer who loved the Ghost 15 and earlier versions, I'd strongly recommend skipping the Ghost 17 and 18. These weren't just updates or design improvements—it feels like a completely different shoe. The fit and ride have changed so much that the model I happily bought four times previously is now unwearable for me. Really disappointed with Brooks on this one.
