Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost 17 is a high-performance running shoe designed for female runners seeking a reliable, daily trainer that balances comfort and responsiveness. Featuring the signature DNA Loft v3 foam, it provides a smooth, cushioned ride suitable for both short daily jogs and high-mileage efforts, though runners preferring extreme ground feel may find the soft midsole density too plush for their specific speed-work needs.

FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 17 good for flat feet?
The Ghost 17 is a neutral trainer. While it provides excellent cushion, those with severe overpronation may require an additional orthotic insert.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and the surface you run on.
Are these suitable for walking?
Yes, the comfort and support levels of the Ghost 17 make it an excellent choice for walking as well as running.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and the cushioning properties of the foam.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Ghost 17 is designed for maximum breathability, so it is not waterproof and may let water in during heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping at the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar.
Foot feels too hot during runs
Ensure the laces are not pulled excessively tight across the instep, allowing the mesh perforations to vent effectively.
Midsole feeling compressed after long use
Give the foam 24-48 hours to 'rebound' between runs, as nitrogen-infused foams benefit from rest periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, lace the shoes securely but avoid over-tightening the midfoot to allow for natural foot swelling during exercise. These trainers are designed for hard, flat surfaces like asphalt, concrete, or gym flooring. For maintenance, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the foam and adhesive integrity. Instead, gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which can warp the materials.
