Glide through every kilometre with a smooth, Ghostly Ride in the Brooks Ghost 18 D Women’s Shoes, where comfort feels almost supernatural and every step lands soft, steady, and effortless. Built for neutral runners who appreciate a bit more room, this wide-fit favourite blends plush cushioning with everyday reliability, making it just as ready for long runs as it is for casual wear. The updated midsole delivers a soft yet dynamic feel underfoot, while the breathable air-mesh upper keeps things light, secure, and comfortable all day long. With a refined design and balanced transitions, this is the kind of shoe that quietly does everything right, so you can simply enjoy the run.

What's New in the Ghost 18?

  • Nitrogen-Infused DNA LOFT v3 Cushioning: Unlike the Ghost 17, the 18 features updated Soft and Dynamic Cushioning through nitrogen-infusion, making the midsole lighter, more responsive, and more durable.
  • Redesigned Engineered Air-Mesh Upper: The Ghost 18 introduces a Refined Design with a new mesh architecture that enhances breathability while ensuring a more Secured and Supportive Fit.
  • Updated RoadTack Rubber Outsole: The outsole now features a specialized RoadTack rubber compound, which includes recycled content and provides improved traction and resilience on wet and dry surfaces.
  • Enhanced Step-in Comfort: The Ghost 18 includes a new sockliner and a soft, flat-knit tongue designed to reduce pressure points and improve the overall "out-of-the-box" feel compared to the previous model.
  • Improved Heel Reflectivity: For those who run in low-light conditions, the Ghost 18 features enhanced reflective detailing on the heel for better visibility.

Key Features

  • Wide Fit (D): Specially designed with a broader profile to accommodate runners who need extra room in the midfoot and toe box
  • Weight 261g (shoe size 8 USW): A remarkably lightweight construction that reduces fatigue during long-distance efforts
  • Drop 10mm: A classic heel-to-toe offset that supports a natural stride and provides excellent impact protection
  • Soft and Dynamic Cushioning: Utilises advanced DNA LOFT v3 nitrogen-infused foam to provide cloud-like comfort with every step
  • Secured and Supportive Fit: The enhanced upper architecture ensures the foot stays locked in place while maintaining a lightweight feel
  • Refined Design: Features a modern aesthetic with improved reflectivity on the heel for increased visibility in low-light conditions
  • Sustainable Materials: This version continues Brooks' commitment to the environment by incorporating recycled materials throughout the upper
  • Durable Outsole: Built with RoadTack rubber for long-lasting traction and resilience on various paved surfaces

 

Absolutely. Thanks to the Soft and Dynamic Cushioning provided by the nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 foam, the Ghost 18 is specifically designed to absorb impact and maintain comfort over high-mileage daily training and marathons.

The Ghost 18 features a Drop of 10mm. This refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot; a 10mm offset is a classic standard that provides excellent heel protection and supports a smooth transition through the gait cycle.

Yes! Because of its Secured and Supportive Fit and neutral platform, it is a top choice for walkers and professionals who require reliable underfoot support and all-day comfort.

Yes, it is a certified CarbonNeutral product. Brooks achieves this by using recycled materials in the Refined Design of the upper and supporting verified carbon offset projects.
