The Brooks Ghost 18 is Available for Pre-Order

The Brooks Ghost line is a tried and true street racer beloved by runners everywhere. And just as we were getting used to the Ghost 17 and enjoying collabs with brands like Babylon, Brooks is back with a new version, introducing the Ghost 18 with six debut colorways available for pre-order ahead of the drop at the end of the month.

The Brooks Ghost 18 keeps much of the same structure and design language of the Ghost 17, but adds new performance tech to the upper with a flat-knit tongue for comfort and two-colored air-mesh fabric for breathability.

The stacked midsole is loaded with DNA LOFT v3 cushioning for cloud-like support in every stride. The debut pairs include classic color combos like black and white, tan and black, triple-black, and grey and green, with a couple louder pairs in white and minty green and grey and icy blue.

The Brooks Ghost 18 is available for pre-order now through the Brooks online store, with a ship date scheduled for April 30, 2026. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $150. For all the latest Brooks news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
