FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost 18 is a neutral shoe. If you have flat feet and require significant arch support or stability, consult with a professional to determine if a stability model would be better for your biomechanics.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are designed as road running trainers. While they handle paved paths and light gravel well, the outsole is optimized for road surfaces rather than technical, uneven trails.
How long do the shoes last?
Most running shoes provide peak performance for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface, weight, and individual gait.
Do I need to size up?
Brooks generally follows standard sizing, but it is common for runners to choose a half-size larger than their casual shoes to account for foot swelling during exercise.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the OrthoLite sockliner is removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing system to a 'window' or 'gap' lacing technique to relieve pressure beneath the flat-knit tongue.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to create a 'runner's loop' or heel lock for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, ensure the fit is snug but not restrictive; you should have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Care instructions include:
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean with mild soap and cold water. Never machine wash or tumble dry.
- Drying: Air dry only in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to preserve the foam's integrity.
- Maintenance: Check the RoadTack outsole periodically for trapped debris that could affect grip on pavement.
