Technical Specifications Guide

The Brooks Ghost 18 GTX Men’s are waterproof running shoes designed to offer comfort, cushioning and protection from the rain during daily training sessions. They maintain a balanced running feel and are also suitable for walking. The GTX version allows you to continue using them when road surfaces and weather conditions become less favourable.

The midsole utilises nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, designed to soften the impact with the ground without compromising on dynamic responsiveness. Support remains balanced, with a stable, protected heel combined with a more dynamic forefoot. The 10 mm drop completes a design focused primarily on comfort for everyday running.

Water protection is provided by GORE-TEX® Invisible Fit technology. The waterproof layer is integrated directly into the upper to maintain a good balance of protection, flexibility and breathability. This is a particularly useful feature for running in the rain and tackling wet tarmac without having to switch to a more structured shoe.

The outsole is also designed to improve traction in wet conditions, enhancing safety when road conditions deteriorate. The eyelets and heel also feature reflective details, which help to increase visibility in low-light conditions.

Weighing 317.5 g, the Ghost 18 GTX Men’s prioritises protection and comfort over lightness. The new insole and the soft, flat-knit tongue complete the fit, whilst 57.1 per cent of the upper’s materials are recycled. It is a waterproof daily trainer suitable for those who want to keep running regularly even during the rainiest months.
