At 9.8 ounces, it moves well without feeling heavy. The Ghost Trail is also made with recycled materials throughout, keeping sustainability part of the package.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I recommend the Ghost Trail a lot to runners who keep saying they want to try trails but are nervous about giving up their road shoe comfort. It has that familiar Ghost cushioning underfoot, but the outsole actually grips - I noticed a real difference on wet roots and loose gravel. It's a great way to ease into trail running without starting over on fit."" - Rachel, Road Runner Sports Fit Expert, Carlsbad, CAWho It's Best ForIf you're a neutral runner who logs most miles on the road but wants to explore trails without switching to a completely different shoe, the Women's Brooks Ghost Trail is worth a close look.
