The Ghost and Wave Rider are very close in ride, but there are some differences. Now, let’s talk about the ride of these two… Ride So, in terms of the outsole, the Wave Rider wins just because it’s a little more durable. I found the XT10 rubber outsole on the Wave Rider 25 to be a little bit more durable than the Ghost 14. This results in less flexibility but more snappy transitions than the Ghost 13. There’s soft rubber on the forefoot and harder, more durable carbon rubber on the heel section.īrooks filled the second flex groove filled with more rubber to protect the DNA Loft in the forefoot a little bit better.
The Ghost 14 uses two different types of rubber on the outsole for that full-ground contact setup. There are flex grooves that run from the lateral side to about two-thirds of the way towards that medial side giving you that flex and responsiveness as you toe-off.

The outsole in the Wave Rider 25 is the X10 rubber that runs from heel to toe giving you that full ground contact. The Ghost 14 is now going to give you a much more consistent feel as you go through your stride.īoth shoes have a very similar outsole configuration.
What that means for you is that the ride is going to be a smoother more cushioned ride. Also, on the Ghost 13, the midsole had different densities to it, but the Ghost 14 has a single-density layer of DNA Loft from heel to toe. While the Ghost 13 had the DNA Loft only on the lateral side and then Brooks’ BioMogo DNA on the medial side, the Ghost 14 is entirely DNA Loft on both sides. The Ghost has a DNA Loft, which is basically Brooks’ softest cushioning to date. Also, the Mizuno gets a redesigned Wave Plate with a more aggressive geometry on the lateral side. While the Wave Rider 24 had the Enerzy foam in the heel, the Wave Rider 25 features the Enerzy foam throughout the entire midsole, which generates an even smoother ride and more rebound and energy return while providing you an even softer underfoot feel. Ghost 14īoth shoes now have their midsole compound run the full length of the shoe, which has made the shoes noticeably softer than their previous versions. So, in terms of weight, the Wave Rider 25 wins. Both shoes have 36mm of stack in the heel and 24mm in the forefoot for a total of 12mm heel-to-toe drop if we did the math correctly. While both midsoles have seen a significant improvement, the stack height and drop have remained unchanged. While the Ghost 14 has gained 0.2 oz compared to the Ghost 13, the Wave Rider 25 shed about 0.2 oz from the Wave Rider 24. Ghost has more width options than the Wave Rider.īoth shoes weigh almost exactly the same.
