Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Ghost 18 Trainers are designed for neutral runners and walkers seeking a reliable, comfortable shoe for daily training on road surfaces. These trainers feature advanced nitrogen-infused cushioning that offers a smooth, balanced ride; however, those requiring high-stability support for severe overpronation may find the neutral design less ideal for their specific biomechanical needs.

FAQs

Are the Brooks Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?

The Ghost 18 is a neutral shoe. While many neutral runners with flat feet find them comfortable, those needing medical-grade arch support should consult with a podiatrist.

Can I use these for trail running?

These shoes are designed specifically for road surfaces. The outsole pattern may not provide sufficient grip on loose dirt, mud, or rocky terrain.

How should I clean my Brooks trainers?

Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spots. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Brooks generally follows standard athletic sizing; however, it is recommended to have at least a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

What is the weight of the Ghost 18?

The shoe weighs approximately 260 grams, making it a lightweight option for daily training.

What does the 10mm drop mean?

The 10mm drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot, which helps promote a smooth heel-to-toe transition.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the arch area during runs

Ensure your lacing is not too tight; try a 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.

Outsole collecting debris on road surfaces

Use a soft brush to clear pebbles or grit from the grooves of the RoadTack outsole after every few runs to maintain traction.

Heel slipping while walking or running

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to perform a 'runner’s loop' (heel lock) for a more secure fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for daily comfort
  • Lightweight build prevents heavy-legged feeling
  • Durable outsole suitable for high-mileage road use
  • Stable and predictable neutral platform

Cons

  • Not intended for trail running surfaces
  • Lacks specialized stability features for severe overpronation
  • May feel too soft for runners who prefer a firm, high-energy return

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers last as long as possible, remove them by hand rather than kicking them off with your other foot to preserve the heel counter. If the shoes become wet or muddy, avoid using a washing machine or dryer, as heat can degrade the foam and adhesive materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let them air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators. For optimal performance, replace your trainers every 300 to 500 miles, as the cushioning properties will naturally compress over time.
