Comparing Brooks Ghost 12 and Brooks Ghost 13 side by side reveals a few significant differences, but many of the fundamental components remain the same.
The designed mesh uppers on both versions are fairly similar. From the 12 to the 13, the designs and patterns varied slightly, but Fleet Feet testers found no performance differences between the two.
The outsoles are quite identical, and the lacing technique is still the same (six regular eyelets with a seventh empty eyelet at the top). Although Brooks altered the rubber’s traction pattern, the material’s general shape and coverage remained unchanged.
