FAQs

What type of runner is the Brooks Ghost 18 best suited for?

The Brooks Ghost 18 is ideal for neutral runners who need a balanced blend of soft cushioning and reliable support for daily training and long runs.

How does the Ghost 18 differ from previous versions?

The Ghost 18 features updated details for enhanced comfort, building upon the consistent blend of soft cushioning and balanced support that the series is known for.

Can I use these shoes for trail running?

No, the Brooks Ghost 18 is specifically designed as a road-running shoe. Its outsole and construction are optimized for paved surfaces, not the varied terrain of trails.

How should I clean my Brooks Ghost 18 shoes?

Spot clean with mild soap and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or drying. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What is the expected lifespan of the Brooks Ghost 18?

Like most running shoes, the Ghost 18 typically lasts between 300-500 miles, depending on running surface, frequency, and individual gait. Pay attention to wear on the outsole and a reduction in cushioning.

Are these shoes suitable for runners who need stability?

The Ghost 18 is a neutral shoe, meaning it does not include specific stability features for overpronation. Runners needing significant stability may consider Brooks models designed for support.

What size should I order?

It's recommended to order your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes or prefer more room, consider sizing up half a size. Trying them on with running socks is advised.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try wearing them with different running socks. Break them in gradually with shorter runs.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

Running shoes naturally lose cushioning after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles). Consider replacing the shoes if performance feels diminished.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for road traction. Exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces, as with any running shoe. Ensure the outsole is clean.

  • Offers a comfortable and consistent fit for many foot types.
  • Durable construction ensures good value over time.

  • May lack advanced stability features for severe overpronators.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It's recommended to try them on with the type of socks you typically run in.

Compatibility:

The Brooks Ghost 18 is designed as a neutral road running shoe. It is compatible with most standard running socks and insoles. It is not designed for trail running or highly specialized athletic activities requiring specific support.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean with mild soap and cold water using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the shoe's materials and structure.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid leaving them in hot cars or damp environments.
