Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow for a few short walks before committing to a long-distance run.
- Cleaning: Hand wash your trainers using mild soap and cool water. Never machine wash or dry, as this can degrade the foam and glue structures.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material breakdown.
- Replacement: Generally, road running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of your usage and surface wear.
