Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost Max 4 is designed for runners seeking a highly cushioned, protective ride that prioritizes impact absorption and stability. It is an ideal choice for neutral runners or those who need extra support on daily road runs, though its high-stack construction may feel less responsive to runners preferring a firm, ground-feel experience. These trainers combine a signature rocker geometry with a secure, stable fit to help you transition smoothly through every mile.

FAQs
Are the Brooks Ghost Max 4 trainers good for walking?
Yes, the high-stack cushioning and smooth rocker geometry make them an excellent choice for walking as well as running.
Are these shoes suitable for overpronation?
The Ghost Max 4 features a broad base for inherent stability, but it is classified as a neutral shoe. If you require significant arch support, consider consulting a professional to see if an insert is needed.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
Brooks generally follows standard athletic sizing. Most runners find their usual UK size in these shoes to be an accurate fit.
Can I use my own orthotic insoles with these shoes?
Yes, the sockliner in the Ghost Max 4 is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage during runs
Utilize the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a runner's loop for a more secure heel lock.
Feeling of excessive pressure on top of the foot
Loosen the laces across the midfoot and try a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Brooks Ghost Max 4 trainers perform optimally, start by ensuring you have the correct size; the shoe features a secure locking mechanism that performs best with a standard runner's knot to distribute pressure across the bridge of the foot. These trainers are fully optimized for hard-surface roads and paved paths. To maintain the life of the cushioning and outsole, avoid using the shoes on sharp, rocky trails which may cause premature wear to the foam. Clean them by removing dirt with a soft brush and wiping the upper with a damp cloth; never machine wash or tumble dry, as high heat can damage the bonding agents and midsole foam integrity.
