Our take on the Brooks Women's Ghost 18

The Ghost 18 is Brooks' neutral daily trainer, built for easy road miles and all-day walking. It keeps the DNA Loft-style soft EVA midsole and 10 mm drop that made earlier Ghosts popular, and adds a new sockliner and a soft flat knit tongue for a plusher step-in. At about 9.2 oz it is lighter than max-cushion rivals like the Glycerin but softer and more forgiving than firmer trainers such as the Adrenaline (which is stability, not neutral). Owners praise the consistent fit and cushioned ride; some find it a little heavy and warm for fast running.

Best forNeutral runners logging daily easy milesWalkers and commuters who want cushioning all dayRunners who liked earlier Ghost models and want the same fitAnyone needing a wide or narrow width option
Pros
  • Soft, balanced cushioning that holds up over long runs
  • Reliable, true-to-size fit carried over from past Ghosts
  • New sockliner and knit tongue improve step-in comfort
  • Available in narrow and wide widths
  • Reflective heel detail for low-light runs
  • Durable RoadTack rubber outsole
Cons
  • Around 9.2 oz, heavier than many neutral trainers at this level
  • Not a speed shoe; firm enough for tempo work only occasionally
  • Mesh upper can run warm in hot weather
  • 10 mm drop feels steep to runners used to lower-drop shoes
