FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost Max 3 offers a stable, cushioned platform that provides decent support for mild flat-footed runners, though specific orthotic inserts can always be added.
How many miles do these typically last?
Generally, you can expect between 300 and 500 miles depending on your running gait, the surface intensity, and your body weight.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While primarily a road trainer, they offer enough stability for basic strength training, though they are not recommended for heavy Olympic lifting.
Is the mesh upper waterproof?
No, the technical mesh is designed for maximum breathability, which means it will allow water to pass through if stepped in a puddle.
How do I choose the right size?
Brooks generally follows standard UK sizing; it is recommended to size up by half a size if you prefer extra room for foot swelling during long runs.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points during long runs
Try re-lacing the shoes using a runner's loop or bypassing the eyelets that correlate to the pressure area.
Outsole debris collection
Periodically remove small stones or gravel lodged in the outsole tread to maintain optimal traction and prevent uneven wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost Max 3 trainers, begin with a proper fit check: there should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. When cleaning, avoid the washing machine; instead, hand wash the uppers using a soft brush, warm water, and mild detergent. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the DNA LOFT foam. Rotate your shoes if you run daily to allow the foam compression to reset fully between sessions.
