FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?
Yes, it is a neutral shoe that works well for many flat-footed runners, but if you have significant overpronation, you may need a medical-grade orthotic insert.
Can these shoes be worn for long-distance walking?
Absolutely. The DNA LOFT v3 cushioning makes the Ghost 18 one of the best options for long-distance walking and all-day comfort.
How many miles should I expect to get out of these trainers?
Most runners can expect between 300 to 500 miles, depending on running surface, weight, and gait style.
Are these waterproof?
No, they are made with an engineered mesh designed for maximum breathability, so they are not waterproof.
How do I know if the Ghost 18 fits correctly?
You should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels too loose or slides inside the shoe
Try using a 'runner's loop' or heel-lock lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar.
Tongue slips to one side during movement
Ensure the lace is threaded through the retention loop located on the center of the tongue.
Outsole loses grip in heavy rain
While the RoadTack rubber is durable, wipe down the soles after use to remove road debris or oils that can build up and decrease surface friction.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptionally soft and smooth heel-to-toe transitions
- Highly versatile for both walking and daily road running
- Breathable engineered mesh improves overall foot temperature regulation
- Durable outsole composition built for high-mileage use
- Comfortable fit suitable for a wide range of foot shapes
Cons
- Neutral design lacks specific arch support for severe overpronation
- Not optimized for technical trail running or off-road terrain
- Primary focus on comfort may feel less 'snappy' than carbon-plated speed shoes
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, ensure you have the correct size, as the engineered mesh upper provides a structured but accommodating fit. These shoes are fully compatible with custom orthotics if you require additional arch support.
Care Instructions:
- Always air dry your shoes at room temperature after wet runs; do not use a radiator or dryer as this can damage the cushioning foams.
- Remove the OrthoLite sockliner occasionally to allow it to dry separately if it becomes saturated with sweat.
- Clean the outsole periodically with a soft brush and mild soap to maintain the traction properties of the RoadTack rubber.
- Avoid machine washing, which can break down the adhesives and structural components of the upper.
