The Brooks Ghost 17 delivers a balanced mix of comfort, durability, and performance as a neutral daily road trainer. The shoe features a refined design without excessive frills and an updated stack height of 36.5 mm at the heel and 26.5 mm at the toe, producing a 10 mm drop.

The engineered double-jacquard mesh upper uses 59% recycled materials, fits true to size, and feels snug, though breathability and excess collar/tongue cushion are minor concerns.
