Brooks Ghost Trail

The Brooks Ghost Trail is a terrain-adapted version of the popular Ghost road shoe, designed to offer comfort, cushioning, and traction on mixed trails and soft paths. They maintain the smooth rolling and comfort characteristic of the Ghost line, but with enhanced protection and grip off-road.

These shoes are designed for neutral runners looking for a versatile shoe to alternate between road and light trail running. They are ideal for medium and long distances, from daily training runs to long runs, and perform best on compact terrain, forest paths, gravel, or trails without excessive technical difficulty, avoiding very rocky or muddy areas.

The upper is constructed with a highly breathable technical mesh and strategic reinforcements that provide structure and durability against abrasion from the terrain. It fits comfortably to the foot, with generous padding in the heel and tongue that improves support and comfort on long runs. The materials maintain the flexibility and adaptability of the road running model, but with greater perimeter protection and reflective details.

The midsole uses DNA LOFT v2, a lightweight and responsive foam that provides soft and stable cushioning. It delivers a smooth and natural transition, with a balanced feel between comfort and responsiveness, ideal for runners seeking a comfortable stride without sacrificing dynamism. The geometry maintains a 12mm drop, promoting a traditional and stable stride on uneven terrain.

The outsole features TrailTack rubber with a medium-profile tread pattern that enhances traction on dirt, gravel, and wet surfaces without sacrificing a smooth ride on asphalt. The tread pattern is designed to maximize grip on both ascents and descents, while also offering good durability and flexibility for runners who frequently travel between different types of terrain.
