Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost 18 is a premier neutral road running shoe designed for adult runners who prioritize a soft, consistent ride and reliable durability for their daily mileage. Featuring the advanced DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, it offers exceptional shock absorption and smooth transitions, making it an ideal choice for both casual joggers and dedicated road warriors. While it excels in comfort and fit, runners seeking a highly responsive or propulsive racing shoe might find its plush nature slightly less suited for high-speed interval training.

FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 a neutral shoe?
Yes, it is designed specifically for neutral runners who do not require extra medial posting for overpronation.
Can I use these for trail running?
While the RoadTack outsole is durable, these are optimized for road surfaces. They are not recommended for technical trails or loose terrain.
How long should these shoes last?
Generally, running shoes like the Ghost 18 provide optimal cushioning and support for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface.
Does this shoe come in different widths?
Brooks typically offers the Ghost series in multiple widths, though availability varies by specific colorway and region.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot
Try a different lacing technique, such as the window lacing method, to relieve tension over the bridge of the foot.
Outsole debris collection
Periodically inspect the RoadTack grooves and use a blunt tool to gently remove small stones or gravel trapped in the tread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers provide the best experience, start by properly lacing the shoes to match your foot volume, utilizing the extra eyelet if you require a more secure 'heel lock' fit. These shoes are fully compatible with custom orthotics if you need additional arch support. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can break down the adhesives and foam properties. Instead, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become soaked during a run, remove the sockliner and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture slowly at room temperature away from direct heat sources.
