FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Ghost Max 4 features a breathable mesh upper designed for airflow, which means they are not waterproof.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, these trainers are specifically engineered to support the comfort requirements of long-distance and intensive training sessions.
How often should I replace these trainers?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Is the sole stiff or flexible?
The sole is designed to be supportive while providing necessary responsiveness, balancing cushioning for impact protection with flexibility for a natural gait.
What is the best way to clean the mesh?
Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt and a damp cloth for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine washing.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels unstable inside the shoe
Re-lace the shoes using the top eyelets for a more secure 'heel lock' fit to prevent shifting.
Upper material appears dusty or stained
Use a dry soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dust, or a lightly dampened cloth for mild stains.
Feeling uneven pressure across the arch
Adjust the lace tension starting from the bottom eyelets moving upwards, ensuring consistent pressure throughout.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Brooks Ghost Max 4 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Fit Check: Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a snug fit without restricting circulation. The heel should sit firmly in the heel cup without slipping.
- Surface Compatibility: While these are high-performance trainers, they are optimized for road and treadmill surfaces. Avoid using them on jagged or rocky trails to prevent upper mesh abrasion.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized cleaning. Avoid submerging the trainers in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the specialized adhesive and cushioning materials.
- Drying: Air dry only. Do not place near heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, which can cause the foam to warp.
