FAQs
Is the Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?
As a neutral shoe, the Ghost 18 is designed for runners with neutral arches. If you have severe overpronation, you may require a shoe with additional stability features.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, the Ghost 18 is specifically built to handle high mileage and provides the durability needed for marathon training cycles.
What is the primary difference between this and the previous model?
The Ghost 18 features a refreshed upper for better breathability and a redesigned outsole with RoadTack rubber for improved durability.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Does this shoe work for cross-training?
While excellent for walking and running, the Ghost 18 is designed for forward motion and may lack the lateral support needed for high-intensity gym workouts or court sports.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on top of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as skipping the eyelet that aligns with the pressure point, to adjust tension.
Outsole debris accumulation
Use a soft-bristle brush to remove rocks or mud from the RoadTack rubber grooves after runs to maintain grip.
Pros and Cons

- Adaptable fit suitable for different foot shapes

- Optimized for roads; lacks traction for technical trails

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, wear the socks you intend to use for running when testing your fit. The Ghost 18 accommodates a variety of foot volumes due to the adaptive nature of the engineered mesh. For care, avoid machine washing or drying the shoes, as heat can degrade the foam's integrity. Instead, remove the OrthoLite sockliner and wipe the shoes with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Replace your shoes every 300 to 500 miles to maintain optimal cushioning and support.
