FAQs
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, the Ghost 18 series is specifically designed for high-mileage comfort, making them a great choice for marathon training.
How do I clean the white mesh upper?
Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water to gently scrub the mesh. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Is this shoe suitable for trail running?
While the rubber outsole offers good grip, these are optimized for road and light paths, not technical or rocky trails.
How often should I replace my Ghost 18s?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Do these trainers require special socks?
While not required, wearing technical, moisture-wicking synthetic or wool socks will complement the breathable mesh upper.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure points on the foot
Adjust the lacing tension, specifically at the midfoot, to allow for more volume or secure the fit as needed.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the lace-up closure is tight enough to lock the heel in place and consider using the final eyelet for a 'runner's loop' lacing technique.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Loosen the laces completely before putting the shoe on for the first time to allow your foot to slide into the ergonomic footbed comfortably.
- Break-in Period: While they feel great out of the box, perform a few short walks or light jogs to allow the foam to settle to your gait.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after use. If they become muddy, hand wash using mild soap and cold water. Never machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the cushioning material.
