FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost 18 is a neutral shoe. If you have flat feet and require significant arch support, you may need a medical-grade orthotic insert to pair with the shoe.
Can I put my Brooks trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing and drying can damage the midsole foam and the structural integrity of the upper. Clean them manually with a soft brush and mild soap.
How long should these shoes last?
Generally, running shoes like the Ghost 18 last between 300 to 500 miles depending on your running style, surface, and body weight.
Does the Ghost 18 come in different widths?
While this specific model is a standard fit, the Ghost series is often available in wider or narrower iterations. Check your local retailer for specific width availability.
Is this shoe good for racing?
While durable and comfortable, the Ghost 18 is designed primarily as a daily trainer. Some runners prefer lighter, more aggressive shoes for racing, though it is perfectly capable of handling training runs at various speeds.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on top of the foot
Try a different lacing pattern, such as skipping the eyelet where the pressure occurs, to relieve tension on the flat-knit tongue.
Excessive movement inside the shoe
Utilize the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to secure your ankle and improve the overall lockdown of the upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, verify that the shoe size matches your running needs; the Ghost 18 accommodates a wide range of foot volumes due to the flexible engineered mesh. When using these shoes, ensure your laces are tensioned evenly across the midfoot to leverage the secure hold of the upper. For care, keep your Ghost 18s away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the foam. If they become muddy or wet, remove the OrthoLite sockliner and allow the shoes to air dry naturally by stuffing them with paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the specialized bonding agents in the midsole.
