Excellent Trail Shoes

I used it on the Camino de Santiago Compostela and once broken in properly, it was my favorite to use. It offered support and traction for those uphills and downhills.

Feet Feel Good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new brooks. They make my feet feel like I’m walking on air. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and my feet love these shoes.

Love these shoes for trail walking. Very comfortable and supportive. Roomy toe box for extended comfort.

Nice Trail Shoes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great. They are very comfortable compared to my Cascadia. Would love to have some fun cheetah prints in these ghost trail like my old Ghost purple cheetah prints.

Brooks Are The Best Running Shoes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These trail shoes are amazing. Very comfortable and like the tread sone I run on gravel roads.Plenty of room for your toes. Plan to get another pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a therapist and wear my five pairs of ghost sneakers every day. It makes a difference when you are on your feet all day.

Good Alternative To Caldera Except For One Tiny Thing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Another win for Brooks! I've been running in Brooks trail shoes for the last 15 years or so, and these are on par with the Caldera model that I couldn't find during my last replacement. They have the same cushioning, which I need for the arthritis in my toes (ugh), and support as the Caldera. The only missing element is the lace strap to tuck in the tied laces. That's a weird omission and something I would like to see again. Otherwise, this shoe hits all the points of Caldera - super cushioning, great response, lightweight, durable trail shoe.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] By far the most uncomfortable pair of shoes I’ve ever owned. I ran in them once and immediately put them back in the box. They felt like they were supposed to be soft but honestly just felt like rocks on my feet. Also, heads up, they run really big

Ghost Trail Perfect For Light Hiking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I am not a runner, Brooks Ghost are my favorite shoes for walking, light hiking, and working out at the gym. So when I discovered there was a trail model, I was excited to try it out for my trip this summer to Yosemite National Park and Lake Tahoe among other areas. Like my two other pairs of Brooks Ghost, these fit perfectly and feel like walking on a cloud. They are just right for a combination of sightseeing and light hiking. These shoes are a perfect complement to my high top boots for more rugged trails.

Nearly Very Good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is close to a very good shoe. Pros: The balance of cushion and support is very good and for me is a good middle ground between the normal Ghost and the Cascadia trail. Cons: 1) Not sure if this is only an issue at larger sizes, but in my 10.5 the tongue is too narrow so it does not properly span my upper foot. I had to change my lacing to keep the upper from digging into my foot. 2) The tread began falling off within a month.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m a die-hard fan of Brooks Running shoes. I’ve loved the Ghost for road running and the Cascadia for trails, so I was really excited when the Ghost Trail came out. The shoes are beautifully designed and look great, but in terms of performance, they fall a bit short for me. They’re not as comfortable as the Ghost road shoes, and they don’t feel as stable as the Cascadia on desert trails in Arizona (my normal trail running surfaces) where footing can be uneven, which makes sense, since they’re advertised for “light trails.” For context, I have low arches and a wider foot, so stability and support matter a lot for me. I really wish I could keep them because they’re so pretty, but I need something a bit more rugged. So, it’s back to the Cascadia for me.

Fantastic Shoe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these! Great cushion and traction on trail pLUS The wider ball of foot and narrow heel is back - reason I have loved Ghosts since my first pair of Ghost 3s! Thank you Brooks!

Fit And Talk About Being 80% Waterproof

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shoe fit is perfect. Very comfortable for all day walking and hiking. The Waterproof is not true. It’s more like water resistant. But the water still goes through the shoe to your socks. Needs to be a little bit better on this. That’s the only reason I gave it a 3 is because it’s not waterproof. Other than that it’s a good shoe. I would buy it again.

The moment I slipped the shoes, on my foot I was excited. I’m new to Brooks shoes and thrilled about the way they feel and the comfort and support I felt almost instantly.
