Full details
The Brooks Ghost 17 is a high-performance, neutral road-running shoe designed for adult runners who prioritize a balanced, cushioned experience. With its updated upper design and nitrogen-infused cushioning, it provides exceptional comfort and structure for daily training. While it excels on paved surfaces, runners looking for specialized trail or track racing footwear may find its neutral geometry less suitable for those specific environments.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the Ghost 17 suitable for long-distance marathon training?
Yes, the Ghost 17 is built as a daily trainer and is well-equipped to handle the high mileage required for marathon training.
Does this shoe provide stability for flat feet?
The Ghost 17 is a neutral shoe. If you require significant arch support or stability for overpronation, you may need a stability-focused model instead.
Can I use these for treadmill running?
Absolutely. The balanced cushioning and neutral platform perform very well on treadmill belts.
How often should I replace my Brooks Ghost 17?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Is the upper material waterproof?
No, the Ghost 17 uses a performance mesh upper designed for breathability, not water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Try a 'runner's loop' or alternate lacing patterns to relieve tension on the eyelets.
Excessive movement inside the shoe
Ensure you are wearing the correct size and consider using a slightly thicker sock for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Brooks Ghost 17 remains in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for shorter 2-3 mile runs to allow the foam and upper to contour to your feet.
- Surface Compatibility: Stick to roads, paved paths, and indoor gym surfaces for optimal lifespan and traction.
- Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary. Do not machine wash or dry, as high heat can degrade the nitrogen-infused midsole foam.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material breakdown.
