FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost 18 features an ergonomic construction that adapts to many foot shapes, but we recommend consulting a professional if you require specific arch support.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and cushioning foam of the trainers.
How often should I replace them?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and the surface terrain.
Is the Ghost 18 waterproof?
The upper is made of breathable mesh to allow airflow; it is not waterproof and will absorb water if used in heavy rain.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Loosen the laces and try a different lacing pattern, such as skipping the eyelet where the pressure occurs.
Excessive movement inside the shoe
Use the runner's loop (the extra eyelet at the top) to lock the heel in place and tighten the laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ghost 18 trainers, start by adjusting the lace-up closure to match your foot's volume, ensuring the tongue is centered. These shoes are compatible with most standard neutral running gaits. For care, avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. Instead, wipe the mesh exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air-dry at room temperature; never place the shoes in a dryer or directly on a heat source, as this can degrade the cushioning foam and adhesive components.
