Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Ghost 18, in Black/Pink and UK size 4.5, is designed for adult female runners seeking a reliable, neutral road running shoe for daily training, easy miles, and general fitness. Its key benefit is the incredibly soft, smooth, and dependable ride provided by nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning. A potential caveat is that while accommodating, the fit is described as slightly snug, so true-to-size wearers should consider this. This updated model features a refreshed engineered mesh upper for improved breathability and fit, alongside a durable RoadTack rubber outsole made with recycled silica.

FAQs

What type of runner is the Brooks Ghost 18 best suited for?

The Ghost 18 is ideal for neutral runners who need a cushioned shoe for road running, daily training, easy miles, walking, and general fitness.

How does the cushioning feel?

The shoe features nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, which provides a soft, smooth, and responsive feel underfoot, offering excellent shock absorption.

Is the fit true to size?

Yes, the Ghost 18 generally fits true to size. It offers a secure, slightly snug fit that accommodates a variety of foot shapes.

What is the stack height and heel-to-toe drop?

The heel stack height is 26mm and the forefoot stack height is 16mm, resulting in a heel-to-toe drop of 10mm.

Are these shoes suitable for trail running?

No, the Ghost 18 is designed specifically for road running. The RoadTack rubber outsole offers grip on paved surfaces, but it is not optimized for the varied terrain of trails.

What makes the upper material special?

The upper uses a combination of triple jacquard and engineered air mesh, which provides a secure fit while allowing for excellent airflow to keep feet cool and comfortable.

Does this shoe contain any animal products?

No, the Brooks Ghost 18 is constructed with vegan-friendly materials and does not contain any animal products.

How can I maintain the shoes for longevity?

Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap, air dry them naturally, and store them in a cool, dry place. Avoid machine washing or direct heat.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or snug

While the fit is designed to be secure, consider using the extra eyelets for a more customizable lacing system. If still uncomfortable, ensure you have purchased the correct size, as fit can vary slightly.

Reduced cushioning after some use

The DNA LOFT v3 cushioning is designed for durability. If you notice a significant decrease in cushioning, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes, typically after 300-500 miles of running.

Poor grip on wet surfaces

The RoadTack rubber outsole provides durable traction, but like all road running shoes, grip may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for soft landings and comfort.
  • Smooth transitions from heel to toe.
  • Breathable upper improves airflow during runs.
  • Durable outsole provides reliable traction.
  • Sustainable materials used in the outsole.

Cons

  • Fit is described as slightly snug.
  • May not be suitable for runners requiring significant stability support.
  • Colorway specific to Black/Pink.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Brooks Ghost 18 comes ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct size. As a neutral shoe, it is compatible with most runners' natural gait cycles.

Compatibility: Suitable for road running, daily training, easy runs, walking, and general fitness activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  4. Laundering: It is not recommended to machine wash or dry the shoes, as this can compromise their structure and cushioning.
