Save 1,800 TWD on the Brooks Ghost 16 by grabbing them from the US right now

February 21, 2026

If you have been hanging out in local running groups lately, you have probably noticed everyone talking about the Brooks Ghost 16. It has quickly become a standout this year because of the new nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning. It is lighter than the previous version but feels way more responsive. For those of us in Taiwan, the struggle is that local retail shops often only carry standard widths and a handful of basic colors. If you need a 4E wide fit or want those limited edition 2026 colorways seen in [us trends](https://www.comgateway.com/trends/), the local options just do not cut it.

Honestly, the fastest way to get exactly what you need is to look at the US market. Not only is the variety better, but the price difference is significant. When you factor in the frequent sales at US retailers, you can easily save about 1,800 TWD compared to the high markups we see in local department stores.

The fastest path to buying from US stores

The secret to getting these shoes on your feet as fast as possible is using a [tax-free us address](https://www.comgateway.com). When you shop at major US running sites or the official Brooks store, you can ship your order to a warehouse in a state like Oregon. This means you pay 0% US sales tax, which adds to your total savings. From there, a [freight forwarder](https://www.comgateway.com) handles the international leg of the journey to your doorstep in Taiwan.

Before you hit the checkout button, it is a good idea to use a [shipping calculator](https://www.comgateway.com/calculator/) to see what the total landed cost will be. This helps you confirm that the 1,800 TWD savings still holds up after shipping fees. Most runners find that even with shipping, the US price is still much better, especially for premium 2026 models.

Shipping estimates for Taiwan runners

To help you plan your budget, here are the physical specs for a standard pair of Brooks Ghost 16 shoes. These estimates are based on typical US packaging for adult sizes.

Feature Estimate
Box Weight Approx. 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg)
Box Dimensions Small to Medium (Standard shoebox size)
Volumetric Weight Warning Low. A single pair of shoes usually charges by actual weight. However, if you order multiple pairs in a very large outer box, volumetric weight might apply.
Battery Check None. This item does not contain lithium batteries and is safe for standard air freight.

Using BuyForMe to beat credit card declines

One common headache for shoppers in Taiwan is that some US stores like Nike or even the main Brooks site sometimes block international credit cards. They might also decline orders that use a known forwarding address at checkout. This is where the [BuyForMe service](https://www.comgateway.com/faq/category/buy-for-me/) becomes your best friend. Instead of you struggling with the checkout, the [proxy shopping](https://www.comgateway.com/faq/category/buy-for-me/) team uses a US-based payment method to buy the shoes for you.

This is the safest way to guarantee your order does not get cancelled. It is basically an [assisted purchase](https://www.comgateway.com/faq/category/buy-for-me/) where the experts handle the transaction, and you just wait for the notification that your Ghost 16s have arrived at the warehouse. If you have questions about how this works, you can always check the [FAQ](https://www.comgateway.com/faq/) for a step-by-step breakdown.

Getting your shoes through Taiwan customs quickly

When your package is ready for [Taiwan delivery](https://www.comgateway.com/destinations/TW/), make sure your EZ WAY app is updated and your real-name authentication is active. This is the biggest factor in how fast your shoes clear customs in Taipei. Since the Brooks Ghost 16 is a lightweight item, it usually zips through the process quite quickly. By choosing the fastest shipping method available through your [shop us store](https://www.comgateway.com) partner, you could be hitting the pavement in your new kicks in as little as 5 to 8 business days.
