Brooks Unveils the Ghost Trail for Everyday Adventure
Built to take you off road, helping you uncover new paths right in your backyard.
Brooks launches the Ghost Trail, a versatile model designed for runners who enjoy natural surfaces, gravel paths, and light elevation, without the demands of alpine terrain. The Ghost Trail builds on the trusted feel of the Ghost 17, bringing its DNA Loft v3 cushioning to a shoe designed specifically for smooth, non-technical trails.

Ghost Trail was designed for the growing community of runners who mix road and light trail, seeking comfort and stability without a technical mountain shoe. “It’s the ideal companion for everyday adventures into nature,” said Tim Van Beelen, Brooks Merchandising Specialist.
KEY UPDATES INCLUDE:
- Trail-ready upper: A new knit construction balances breathability with a tight enough weave to keep out dust, sand, and debris. Reinforced with 3D print overlays, the upper protects the mesh without compromising comfort.
- Sculpted DNA Loft v3 midsole: Still soft and protective, but with a new geometry tailored for uneven terrain. With an 8mm drop, the Ghost Trail promotes stability on downhills while offering smooth transitions.
- TrailTec Green outsole: 3mm lugs with broad surface areas and close spacing deliver reliable traction on gravel and dirt, yet feel discreet on roads. Deep flex grooves ensure natural heel-to-toe flow.
This Ghost Trail is perfect for runners who venture off-road and need the trusted fit and feel of the Ghost, elevated with off road grip and durability, so you can confidently explore nature on foot.
Wear Testers Say:
“The shoe overall is great. The forefoot is wide enough but not too roomy to allow for unwanted movement. The midfoot is easily fit by lacing tighter or looser and feels very supported. The heel does not slip, and the low inside and lateral sides are very comfortable. The shoe handles well on dry, rocky, technical terrain.”
