The Brooks Ghost 18 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a soft, smooth, and dependable neutral road running experience. Their key benefit is the nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, which provides exceptional comfort and shock absorption for daily miles and general fitness. A potential caveat is that while accommodating, the fit is described as slightly snug, so those preferring a looser feel may want to consider sizing up.

The Ghost 18 features updated engineered mesh for a better fit and breathability, along with the new nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning for enhanced softness and responsiveness. The outsole also uses RoadTack rubber made with recycled silica.
Yes, the Ghost 18's soft cushioning and smooth ride make them excellent for marathon training, especially for the long runs and recovery runs where comfort is key.
While the RoadTack outsole offers durable grip, these shoes are primarily designed for road running. They may handle very light, well-maintained trails, but are not intended for technical or rugged off-road terrain.
Neutral support means the shoes are designed for runners who do not excessively pronate (roll their foot inward) or supinate (roll their foot outward). They offer cushioning and a smooth ride without specific features to correct foot motion.
If you prefer a secure, locked-in feel and do not have wide feet, the snug fit should be comfortable. If you often need wider shoes or prefer more room for your toes to splay, consider trying a half-size up.
The outsole incorporates recycled silica, and the shoe features a vegan-friendly construction, indicating a consideration for more sustainable materials and processes.
Try lacing the shoes differently, or consider exchanging for a half-size larger if you prefer more room in the forefoot or toe box. Ensure the flat-knit tongue is positioned correctly to avoid pressure points.
While DNA LOFT v3 is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with high mileage. Ensure you are cleaning the shoes regularly to prevent debris from impacting performance. Consider replacing after 300-500 miles depending on usage.
The RoadTack rubber outsole provides durable grip, but like all rubber outsoles, traction can be reduced on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free of debris that might affect grip.
Setup: The Brooks Ghost 18 trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The fit is designed to be true to size, but if you are between sizes or prefer more room, consider ordering a half-size up.
Compatibility: These shoes are ideal for neutral runners and are best suited for road running, daily training, easy miles, walking, and general fitness activities. They are not designed for runners who require significant stability or motion control.
Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Ghost 18 trainers:
