FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural foam. Please clean by hand using a damp cloth.
How do I know if the 9.5 UK size is right for me?
We recommend measuring your foot at the end of the day when it is at its largest and ensuring there is about a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Can I use custom orthotics with the Ghost 18?
Yes, these trainers feature a removable insole, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Typically, performance trainers like these should be replaced every 300-500 miles of use or when the cushioning no longer feels supportive.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The standard Ghost 18 model is designed with a neutral fit; if you have particularly wide feet, you may find the standard width snug.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while walking
Try a runner's loop (also known as a heel lock) lacing technique to secure the ankle more firmly.
Foot feels cramped after prolonged wear
Ensure your laces are not overtightened; readjust mid-day to allow for natural foot swelling.
Midsole feels stiff
The foam may need a 'break-in' period; walk in them for short intervals to allow the materials to soften.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Brooks trainers, begin by loosening the laces fully to accommodate your foot during the initial try-on. Ensure you are wearing the specific socks you intend to use for your activities, as this influences the fit. For care, do not machine wash or dry your trainers, as this can degrade the structural integrity and cushioning materials. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become damp, air-dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the materials to warp.
