Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost Max 3 is designed for adult female road runners who prioritize maximum impact protection and a plush, stable ride during daily training. Featuring high-stack DNA LOFT v3 cushioning, it offers superior comfort for long miles; however, the elevated stack height and broad base may feel slightly bulkier to runners who prefer a minimalist or highly responsive ground feel.

FAQs
Is the Ghost Max 3 suitable for overpronation?
This is a neutral shoe. While the broad base offers inherent stability, it does not feature corrective posts for severe overpronation.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
The Ghost Max 3 features a 6mm drop.
Can I use these for trail running?
The Ghost Max 3 is specifically optimized for road running. While it can handle light gravel, it lacks the aggressive outsole lugs needed for technical trails.
How long should the cushioning last?
Typically, the DNA LOFT v3 foam performs optimally for 300-500 miles, depending on running surface and individual weight.
Is this shoe machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the foam structure and adhesives. Use a damp cloth or soft brush for cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more effectively.
Feeling of instability
Ensure the shoe is the correct size; an overly large shoe can cause the foot to shift on the broad base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ghost Max 3, follow these care guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow 15-20 miles of walking or light jogging for the foam to settle to your gait.
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can degrade the cushioning properties of the nitrogen-infused foam.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material breakdown.
- Rotation: If running daily, rotate with another pair of shoes to allow the foam 24-48 hours to fully decompress.
