Ghost 17

The Brooks Ghost 17 is a highly popular and dependable neutral daily trainer, celebrated for its balanced, 'just-right' feel that appeals to a broad spectrum of runners prioritizing consistent comfort and reliability. It features an updated DNA Loft v3 nitrogen-infused foam with increased stack height and a 10mm drop, delivering a softer yet resilient, protective, and stable ride, though it's not designed for maximal cushioning or high-speed efforts. The comfortable, true-to-size mesh upper, often available in multiple widths, provides a secure fit, while its robust outsole offers exceptional durability. This makes it an ideal workhorse for easy runs, daily mileage, longer efforts, and walking, though some may find its weight slightly noticeable or its cushioning less bouncy than other modern trainers.
