Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Ghost MAX 4 trainers are designed for adult female athletes seeking a blend of high-level cushioning and reliable stability for daily training and long-distance runs. Featuring a breathable mesh upper and a plush, cushioned sole, these shoes offer exceptional support for various athletic activities; however, users should note that the maximalist design provides a higher stack height, which may feel different for those accustomed to traditional, low-profile running shoes.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Ghost MAX 4 offers a standard fit with a accommodating upper; however, fit preference is subjective, and it is recommended to test them with your preferred sock thickness.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
Yes, they provide enough stability for cross-training, though they are primarily optimized for running and road use.
How often should I replace my Ghost MAX 4 trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of use and the surface you run on.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the internal liners are removable, making them compatible with most third-party orthotic inserts.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to accommodate foot swelling during exercise.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose or slides inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing technique, such as using the 'runner's loop' at the top eyelet to secure the heel.
Upper mesh shows signs of dust or debris buildup
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt after each use to maintain breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance from your Brooks Ghost MAX 4 trainers, ensure the laces are tightened evenly across the bridge of the foot to avoid pressure points. These shoes are compatible with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support adjustments. Regarding care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat can damage the foam cushioning. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the mesh with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat sources.
