Men's Running Shoes BROOKS GHOST 18

Soft and reliable cushioning for everyday miles

Men's running shoes Brooks Ghost 18 continue the story of one of Brooks' most recognizable models. Designed for runners who, in daily training, seek the perfect balance between soft cushioning, smooth ride, stable feel, and comfort on longer distances.

Advanced cushioning DNA LOFT v3, enriched with nitrogen, provides a soft landing and a more responsive push-off. The cushioning material pleasantly adapts to every step, allowing a comfortable and smooth run during short workouts, long runs, and recovery miles.

The renovated upper made of breathable mesh securely fits the foot and ensures good air circulation. The newly softly padded knitted tongue reduces pressure on the instep, while an improved inner insole offers a more comfortable feel the moment you put on the shoe.

The structure snugly wraps the heel, while the front of the shoe allows natural and dynamic foot movement. Brooks Ghost 18 is a neutral running model with balanced natural support, making it suitable for a wide range of runners—from beginners to experienced recreational runners.

The external outsole RoadTack combines durable rubber and recycled silica, providing good grip on asphalt and other paved surfaces. A thoughtful distribution of rubber maintains reliable ground contact without unnecessarily increasing the shoe's weight.

Thanks to comfortable fit, a 10-millimeter drop, and balanced cushioning, the Brooks Ghost 18 are an excellent choice for daily road running, longer distances, recovery training, walking, and all-day wear.

DNA LOFT v3

DNA LOFT v3 is nitrogen-enriched cushioning foam designed for softer landings and more responsive take-offs. It provides a pleasant underfoot feel while maintaining enough dynamics for a smooth and natural running stride.

The cushioning is suitable for everyday training, recovery runs, and longer distances where comfort and protection from repeated impacts are especially important.

Balanced support

The shoe construction provides a secure grip around the heel, while an adaptable forefoot allows a natural transition through the step. The model does not have an explicit corrective system, but offers natural stability and balanced support.

Breathable mesh

The renovated upper with multi-layer breathable mesh improves fit and airflow. The material adapts to the shape of the foot and helps maintain comfort during longer trainings and in warmer conditions.

Soft knitted tongue

The new level knitted tongue is softly padded and designed to reduce lace pressure on the top of the foot. The tongue construction improves comfort and helps keep the foot securely seated in the shoe.

Ortholite X-60

The interior insole Ortholite X-60 provides a softer first contact with the foot and additional comfort for daily use. The material is lightweight, breathable, and helps maintain a pleasant feel inside the shoe.

RoadTack

The external outsole RoadTack is made from a durable rubber compound with recycled silica. It provides reliable grip on asphalt and other paved surfaces and offers a good balance of durability, grip, and low weight.

Reflective heel detail

The reflective detail at the heel enhances runner visibility in low-light conditions. Nevertheless, when running in the dark, it is recommended to wear additional reflective clothing or light accessories.
