"Men's Brooks® Ghost Trail: If you love the feel of the Ghost on the road but want to take your runs off-pavement, the Men's Brooks® Ghost Trail trail running shoe is built around that same comfortable, neutral ride - now with the grip and protection to handle dirt, rocks, and uneven terrain. It's a natural fit for road runners who are curious about the trails but don't want to give up the cushioning and smooth feel they already trust.The nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 midsole delivers soft, stable landings mile after mile, tuned specifically for trail running with an 8 mm heel-to-toe drop and a weight of 10.7 ounces. The breathable air mesh upper is reinforced with a 3D printed overlay that keeps your feet cool while shielding them from trail debris. Underfoot, the TrailTack Green rubber outsole with 3 mm lugs gives you reliable traction on wet, dry, or loose surfaces - and it's made with 25% recycled content, so the trails you run on are a little better off for it.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I recommend this one a lot to Ghost fans who keep asking about trail options. It has that familiar cushioned feel from the road version, but the outsole actually grips when things get loose or wet. The 3D printed overlay is a nice touch too - your feet stay protected without the upper feeling stiff."" - Michael, Road Runner Sports Fit Expert, Seattle WAWho It's Best ForIf you're a neutral runner who logs most miles on the road but wants to explore dirt paths, gravel trails, or mixed terrain without switching to a completely different shoe, the Ghost Trail is worth a look. It works well for runners who prioritize cushioning and a smooth ride but need real traction and upper protection when the surface changes. The mid-level cushioning keeps things comfortable on runs of any length, and the neutral support makes it a solid choice for runners who don't need extra motion control.
