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.
