Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost 18 is a premier neutral road running shoe designed for adult runners who prioritize a soft, smooth, and dependable experience. Featuring nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, it excels at providing shock absorption for daily training, walking, or recovery runs; however, runners seeking a high-propulsion racing shoe may find this model focused more on comfort than aggressive speed.

FAQs
Is the Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost 18 is a neutral shoe. While it provides excellent cushioning, it does not include extra structural support for severe overpronation often associated with flat feet.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed for road use. The RoadTack rubber is optimized for pavement and smooth paths rather than technical trails.
How do I clean the white mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then gently dab with a mixture of mild soap and warm water. Avoid soaking the shoes.
Does the nitrogen-infused foam lose its bounce?
DNA LOFT v3 is engineered for long-term durability, though like all running shoes, performance will naturally degrade after approximately 300-500 miles.
What is the primary benefit of the new upper?
The redesigned engineered mesh provides improved breathability and a more adaptive fit that adjusts to different foot volumes without feeling restrictive.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure while keeping the secure hold of the flat-knit tongue.
Outsole losing traction prematurely
Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on road surfaces and occasionally wipe the RoadTack rubber with a damp cloth to remove buildup of road grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, ensure you have selected your correct UK size, as the Ghost 18 features a precise, adaptive fit. For maintenance, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean the engineered mesh with a soft brush and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to preserve the integrity of the foam cushioning and adhesives. Remove the OrthoLite sockliner to air it out separately after long or wet runs to prevent moisture buildup.
