Full details
The Brooks Ghost 18 is a premier neutral road running shoe designed for runners and walkers seeking a consistent, reliable, and comfortable experience. Featuring nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, it provides exceptional shock absorption and smooth transitions, making it an ideal choice for building mileage or everyday wear; however, its specialized design is optimized for road surfaces rather than technical trail running.

FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 suitable for wide feet?
The redesigned engineered mesh upper is highly adaptable to various foot shapes, providing a flexible fit for many users.
Can I use these for trail running?
While durable, the Ghost 18 is designed specifically for road running. For technical, rocky trails, a shoe with more aggressive lug patterns would be recommended.
How often should I replace my Ghost 18s?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you frequent.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to use your own custom orthotics.
What is the primary benefit of DNA LOFT v3?
The nitrogen-infused process allows for a foam that is both lighter and softer, providing superior cushioning without sacrificing the shoe's responsiveness.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try using the extra eyelets at the top of the shoe for a 'runner's knot' or loosen the laces slightly near the tongue area.
Outer sole showing uneven wear
This may indicate a change in foot strike or stride; consider consulting a gait analysis professional if discomfort persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your Ghost 18 trainers, ensure the lacing is snug but not restrictive to allow for natural foot swelling during exercise. For maintenance, keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the foam. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can compromise the structure and cushioning properties of the shoe.
