FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 a neutral or stability shoe?
The Ghost 18 is classified as a neutral road running shoe.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, the Ghost 18 is designed for high-mileage training and provides the cushioning necessary for long-distance comfort.
How often should I replace my Ghost 18s?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles, depending on your running surface and intensity.
Does the mesh upper provide good ventilation?
Yes, the redesigned engineered mesh is specifically built to enhance airflow and keep feet cool during use.
Are these suitable for wet road conditions?
The RoadTack rubber outsole provides durable grip, though you should always exercise caution on wet or slick surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a long run
Feet naturally swell during exercise; try adjusting the lacing pattern to be slightly looser across the midfoot.
Slippage in the heel area
Utilize the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to perform a 'runner's loop' to lock the heel in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. Ensure you select the correct size, as the engineered mesh upper is designed to accommodate foot expansion during activity. To clean your trainers, remove excess dirt with a soft brush and clean them by hand using mild soap and warm water; avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can degrade the midsole foam and adhesive integrity. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the internal heel counter and footbed.
