The Brooks Ghost series, including the latest Ghost 16, is ideal for neutral runners seeking a smooth, cushioned ride. It’s a versatile daily trainer, perfect for steady-paced runs, long distances, treadmill sessions, and even walking or standing for long periods. Its balanced cushioning and reliable fit make it a favourite for beginners and experienced runners alike.
The Ghost 16 features full-length DNA Loft v3 nitrogen-infused cushioning for a plush yet responsive feel, a breathable engineered mesh upper, and a Segmented Crash Pad for smooth heel-to-toe transitions. It has a 12mm drop, weighs around 269g (men’s), and is available in wide fit options for added comfort.
Brooks Ghost shoes are built for longevity, with high-abrasion rubber outsoles and robust construction. They are designed to withstand hundreds of miles, making them a reliable choice for regular training and high-mileage runners.
The Ghost 16 uses DNA Loft v3 foam, which is nitrogen-infused for a softer, lighter, and more energy-returning ride than previous versions. This cushioning is plush underfoot, absorbs impact well, and remains responsive for both short and long runs.
The Ghost 16 features an engineered mesh upper with large ventilation holes in the toebox, offering excellent breathability for most conditions. This design helps keep your feet cool and comfortable, even during longer or warmer runs.
Absolutely. The Ghost’s plush cushioning, smooth transitions, and comfortable fit make it a great option for walking, standing, or all-day wear, in addition to running. Its versatility is one of the reasons it’s so popular among a wide range of users.
