US running shoe brand "BROOKS" will commence pre-sales of the latest model in its flagship neutral running shoe series "GHOST", the "Ghost 18", in mid-June 2026 at its official online shop and select BROOKS retail stores.

The GHOST series has garnered strong support as a daily trainer that supports everyday running. The latest model, "GHOST 18", has been updated for an even more comfortable experience, featuring soft and responsive DNA LOFT v3 cushioning in addition to a newly adopted Ortholite® X-60 insole.

Furthermore, a new upper structure that enhances breathability and fit gently cradles the foot while supporting a stable run. It is a shoe that supports the "everyday step" of all runners, from beginners to those who run regularly. In addition to the standard model, BROOKS is also offering a wide model with extra room in the forefoot, a slim model for runners seeking a more snug fit, and a GORE-TEX model with waterproof and breathable properties. This expanded lineup allows for selection based on foot shape, weather conditions, and usage scenarios.
