FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Brooks Ghost Trail features a moisture-shedding mudguard, but they are not fully waterproof. They are designed for breathability and will allow water to pass through if submerged.
Can I use these for road running?
Yes, they are designed as hybrid trainers and perform well on road surfaces, though the lugs may wear faster than a dedicated road shoe.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults. It is recommended to leave a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Are these suitable for racing?
While they are comfortable enough for long-distance training, they are primarily built for comfort and durability rather than elite-level speed.
How often should I replace them?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability on uneven ground
Ensure your laces are tightened securely to lock the heel; if issues persist, check that you are using the correct size to prevent sliding inside the shoe.
Midsole feels firm or compressed
Allow the foam to recover after long runs. DNA LOFT v3 is adaptive but requires time to regain its structure after heavy compression.
Accumulation of dirt in the tread
Regularly tap the outsoles together after your run or use a soft-bristled brush to clear the 3mm lugs for consistent traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ghost Trail Trainers, always untie the laces fully when putting them on or taking them off; pulling them on while tied can compromise the heel collar structure. If they become dirty, remove excess mud with a soft brush once dry. Hand wash them using warm water and a mild soap, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials. The neutral platform is compatible with most standard orthotic insoles if additional arch support is required. Ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase, as fit preferences can change based on the thickness of your running socks.
