Full details
The Brooks Ghost Max 3 is designed for runners seeking maximum comfort and stability during their daily road runs. Featuring super-stacked DNA LOFT v3 foam and advanced rocker geometry, it provides a plush, highly cushioned experience that excels at reducing impact during high-mileage training.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

How often should I replace these shoes?
Typically, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Is this a neutral or stability shoe?

Troubleshooting
Feeling of instability on tight corners

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Ghost Max 3 is a neutral running shoe compatible with most road surfaces. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, take a few short walks or light runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot shape.
- Sizing: Ensure a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during runs.
- Cleaning: Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as high heat and detergent can degrade the adhesives and foam properties.
- Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Do not place near direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight.
