Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your Brooks Ghost 17, start by loosening the laces fully and re-tying them while the foot is inside to achieve a personalized fit. If you use custom orthotics, the factory-fitted insoles are removable, allowing you to easily substitute them for your preferred inserts.
For care, it is best to avoid washing the shoes in a machine or using harsh detergents. Instead, spot clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked during a run, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with crumpled paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture, then let them air dry in a cool, well-ventilated space. Avoid placing them near heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the foam properties.
