THE BROOKS BLOG

Keep that finish-line feeling with you all day and into the night. And maybe to prom, why not?

Thanks to Running Superfans Carl and Karl Underwood for introducing and modeling the Mylar suit prototype at our last sales meeting. It’s an innovation that no one saw coming, but that will certainly let you be seen and heard for miles around.

The Adrenaline GTS 10 car!

Our Apparel Sales Director, Liz Wilson, couldn’t narrow her pick down to just one from this season. An Equilibrium top and the LSD Lite Jacket are her dynamic duo. Here’s why, in her own words:

 

“The Equilibrium is my super hero clothes. It’s silky soft against the skin, provides insulation against the chill as a base layer, great single layer in a variety of conditions, won’t pick or snag while being so light you’ll feel naked! Plus, in most colors you can travel with it, wear it out with jeans and a cool vest and take it on your next long run!

 

The LSD Lite has become my pal around! Super lite, packs into its own pocket so I bring it everywhere with me. Windproof, and pairs nicely over the Equilibrium for a lite but powerful combination against the elements. Available in Nightlife so you’ve got a safety solution as well.”

The newest incarnation of the Ghost brings back all the style, speed, and springy toe-off action of the original, but with a few key updates that keep you running happier longer. (See Men’s / Women’s.)

 

New and Improved:

  • Cushioning:  We’ve slightly softened the midsole and increased the thickness in the forefoot for extra protection without added bulk. The result is greater, more even cushioning from heel to toe, stride after stride.
  • Overlays: Less is more with the Ghost 2 overlays. We’ve not only reduced the number of overlays, but also made them thinner, more pliable, and more supple. They hold your foot in place, but never get in the way, allowing the Ghost 2 to feel like an extension of your foot in motion.
  • Inherent Stability: A more substantial midfoot shank and a wider footprint under the forefoot give the Ghost 2 the perfect blend of flexibility and stability. Your foot will be free to follow its naturally efficient gait without any danger of being overcorrected.
  • Sockliner: Our new Profile Sockliner is contoured for more support under your arches and a better cup for your heel. It’s also softer than ever before for an increase in comfort and shock absorption.
  • Sustainability:  The Ghost 2 includes Biomogo, our groundbreaking midsole compound that enables quicker decomposition once you’ve put your shoes out to pasture.

Who should wear the Ghost 2?

The Ghost 2 is ideal for the runner with a medium to high arch and a neutral gait cycle who wants a high-mileage shoe for everyday training. Ghost 2 runners like a shoe with balanced and substantial cushioning that supports the efficient work their feet and legs are already doing.
