FAQs
Is the Ghost Max 3 suitable for overpronation?
This is a neutral shoe, though its broad base provides inherent stability. If you require significant arch support for severe overpronation, consult a podiatrist.
How long should these shoes last?
Typically, these shoes provide peak performance for 300-500 miles, depending on your running surface and weight.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
They are designed specifically for road running. While comfortable, the high stack height may be unstable for lateral movements in the gym.
Is the sizing true to fit?
Yes, the Ghost Max 3 follows standard adult athletic sizing. We recommend ordering your usual running shoe size.
Does this shoe work for walking?
The plush cushioning and rocker geometry make it an excellent choice for walking and long periods of standing.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability on uneven surfaces
The Ghost Max 3 is a high-stack road shoe; avoid technical trails and uneven terrain to maintain stability.
Foam feels 'dead' or flat after a run
Allow the shoe 24 hours of rest after a run to let the DNA LOFT v3 foam recover its structure.
Upper material showing dust or stains
Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry debris and a damp cloth for targeted spot cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Ghost Max 3, ensure the fit is correct: there should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. When cleaning, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the foam's integrity. For best results, rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to fully decompress between runs.
