Full details

Featuring the updated nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 midsole, this shoe offers a responsive and plush experience suitable for high-mileage training, casual road runs, or walking. While it provides excellent durability and a reliable fit, users should note that its neutral support design is specifically engineered for those with a neutral gait pattern, rather than those requiring high-stability correction.

FAQs

Is the Brooks Ghost 17 suitable for people who overpronate?

The Ghost 17 is a neutral support shoe. While comfortable, it does not provide the structural stability features recommended for significant overpronation.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are designed for road, pavement, and light park paths. They do not feature the aggressive tread or rock protection necessary for technical trails.

How do I know if I need a wide fit?

If you experience pressure or pinching along the sides of your feet, or if your feet spill over the sides of the midsole, a wide fit option is likely necessary.

What is the weight of the shoe?

Weight can vary slightly by size, but the Ghost 17 is engineered to be lightweight while maintaining a high level of cushioning.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the foam and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use a damp cloth and mild soap for manual cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Sensation of slippage at the heel

Try using the 'runner's loop' or 'lace lock' technique with the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to secure the ankle.

Feeling discomfort after long runs

Ensure your socks are not too thick and consider if you have reached the recommended mileage limit, typically 300-500 miles, where cushioning starts to degrade.

Pros and Cons

Plush and responsive nitrogen-infused cushioning
Reliable durability for high weekly mileage
Smooth and fluid stride transitions
Breathable mesh upper for improved comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost 17, follow these best practices:

Fit Check: 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.
Break-in Period: While ready to use immediately, take a few short walks or light jogs to allow the mesh upper and midsole foam to contour to your foot shape.
Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can break down the adhesives and structural components.
Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Never place running shoes in a tumble dryer or directly near a heater, as intense heat can damage the nitrogen-infused cushioning.
