FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost Max 4 suitable for a neutral runner?
Yes, the Ghost Max 4 is designed to accommodate neutral runners who appreciate a well-cushioned and supportive platform.
Can I use these for marathon training?
The Ghost Max 4 is an excellent candidate for high-mileage training due to its focus on joint protection and long-lasting comfort.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles depending on your running style, surface, and weight.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, they are designed with a breathable mesh upper to prioritize airflow and heat regulation, not water resistance.
Can I put my own orthotics in the shoe?
The Ghost Max 4 features a removable sockliner, making it compatible with most standard aftermarket orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of excess heat inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are not overtightened to allow the ventilation mesh to function properly and consider moisture-wicking synthetic socks.
Uneven wear on the outsole
Check your gait alignment; if wear is extreme on one side, consider a gait analysis at a local running specialty shop to check for pronation issues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost Max 4 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow for 20-30 miles of mixed walking and short runs to let the foam adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean with mild soap and cold water. Do not submerge the shoes or machine wash, as this may compromise the foam density and adhesive integrity.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight to prevent material deformation.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and ensure they are dry before storage to prevent odor buildup.
