About this product
The Brooks Ghost 17 is the latest iteration of a long-running favourite in the neutral road running category. Built for men seeking reliable everyday performance, it delivers more nitrogen-infused cushioning in both the heel and forefoot compared to its predecessor, resulting in a soft yet responsive ride underfoot. A 10mm midsole drop keeps the geometry familiar for runners transitioning from earlier Ghost models. The updated midsole works in tandem with flex grooves in the outsole to encourage smooth heel-to-toe transitions throughout the gait cycle. A redesigned air mesh upper provides a balance of breathability and structural support, while a reworked kickback collar refines the fit around the ankle. Sizing runs true to size according to customer feedback. Available in a Black, Grey, and White colorway, the Ghost 17 suits neutral runners logging miles on paved surfaces who want a cushioned, well-rounded training shoe.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the Brooks Ghost 17 for its reliable, comfortable ride, excellent flexibility, and strong durability, with the outsole's rubber coverage earning particular appreciation from long-distance and heavier runners. The updated DNA LOFT v3 foam and improved heel bevel are noted as genuine upgrades over previous versions, and the shoe's naturally stable, versatile feel makes it a popular choice for both daily runs and casual wear. The most common criticisms center on its weight, which experts consider high for a modern daily trainer, and a foam feel that some find outdated compared to competitors. A recurring complaint among users is the limited wide-width availability. Some also note the heel cup fit can feel snug or poorly cushioned, and the $150 retail price is seen as a stretch for a shoe without standout performance features.
