Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Ghost 17 is designed for runners of all abilities, from beginners to seasoned marathoners, seeking a reliable, neutral daily trainer that balances comfort with performance. Its primary benefit is the signature soft, nitrogen-infused cushioning that provides a smooth, consistent ride for high-mileage road training; however, its traditional design may not provide the aggressive energy return preferred by competitive racers looking for carbon-plated speed.

FAQs

Is the Brooks Ghost 17 suitable for wide feet?

Yes, Brooks offers multiple width options for the Ghost series to ensure a comfortable fit for various foot shapes.

Can I use these for trail running?

The Ghost 17 is specifically engineered for road and pavement use and may not provide sufficient grip on technical or loose trail surfaces.

What is the primary difference in the v3 midsole?

The DNA Loft v3 uses nitrogen-infusion technology, which provides a lighter, more responsive, and softer cushioning experience compared to previous versions.

How long should these shoes last?

Generally, running shoes last between 300 and 500 miles depending on your weight, running surface, and individual stride mechanics.

Are these shoes supportive enough for overpronation?

The Ghost 17 is a neutral support shoe. If you require significant arch support or correction for overpronation, you may need to consult a specialist or consider a stability model.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing technique to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure over the midfoot.

Excessive wear on the outsole

Ensure you are rotating your shoes to allow the foam and rubber to recover for at least 24 hours between runs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Brooks Ghost 17 stays in peak condition, follow these guidelines:

Breaking In: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few short walks or light runs to allow the mesh upper to adapt to your foot shape.
Sizing: These are standard adult UK sizes; verify your fit using a brannock device or by measuring at the end of the day when your feet are at their largest.
Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the nitrogen-infused foam structure.
Air Drying: Remove the insoles and air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or radiators.
