The Ghost You Love With Better Grip
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Same great fit, comfort and performance of the Ghosts I love with better grip for trails, snow and slick roads. These are probably the best trail running shoes I have tried from any brand.

Smooth Transition & Total Comfort
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Brooks Ghost Trail impressed me with how seamlessly it transitioned from road to trail. On pavement it felt smooth and cushioned, while on dirt and gravel it stayed stable and confident without feeling bulky or stiff. The midsole delivered the soft, responsive cushioning Ghost fans expect, making each step feel light and fluid even when the terrain changed frequently. During longer runs, the ride stayed consistent and comfortable, absorbing impact well and reducing fatigue, which made mixed-surface routes feel easy and enjoyable. Traction was excellent on gravel, packed dirt, and uneven trail sections, with a grippy outsole that felt secure without being overly aggressive on roads. The shoe felt durable and trail-ready, easily handling rocks and roots without any awkward slipping or hotspots. Fit was very consistent with other Ghost models- true to size with a secure midfoot and comfortable toe box. Breathability was great, keeping my feet cool and dry, and overall comfort was outstanding, making these an ideal option for runners who want one reliable shoe for both road and light-to-moderate trails.

Ghost Trail
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first shoes of choice from Brooks were the original Ghosts. These deliver many of the same aspects from that I loved from those shoes such as the cushion provided on heel strike and the stability. While these do seem to have a slightly thicker sole, they do not make me feel like my ankle will roll when I am maneuvering the uneven ground of trails. The increases insole thickness does provide enough protection when going over terrain with sharp rock ground surface. They do have less traction than other trail shoes that do allow transition to smooth road surfaces without that sticky feeling other shoes have. This does however mean you do lose some traction ability on steep climbs. Overall, as with the other members of the Ghost shoe line I am very happy with the overall quality, durability and practicality if this shoe!

Perfect For Uneven Terrain
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The grip on these shoes was absolutely perfect for uneven surfaces, like trail running- the stability is perfect. My only complaint is that I'm generally running a mix of walking/bike paths and trails, based on my location, and the tread is actually a little aggressive for smooth running paths! However, I'd much rather have the extra grip and reliability for the trails than have a smoother tread that is questionably sturdy on rockier terrain. Overall, the fit is great, if a smidge big. I generally waffle between 9 and 9.5, and the 9.5 felt a bit more spacious here, but I wouldn't have sized down to a 9...I just added a thicker pair of socks and it was fine. The light color on these makes me think that they'll hold dirt a bit more than others, but I would still pick them for the superior grip.

Purchased For Work
I purchased these to wear to work but I find myself wearing them constantly! They're really comfortable! I'm on my feet at work all day between tall mats and concrete floors. I've had many knee surgeries, and these really help keep me comfortable!
