Is the Ghost 18 a stability shoe?
No, the Ghost 18 is a neutral road running shoe designed for runners who do not require extra medial support.
Can I put these in the dryer?

What is the primary material used in the cushioning?

Are these shoes suitable for walking?

Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window' or 'gap' lacing style to relieve tension over the bridge of the foot.
Outsole wearing down quickly
Ensure you are using the shoe primarily on roads or paths rather than abrasive surfaces like gravel or rocky trails.
Sockliner slipping
Remove the sockliner, ensure there is no debris in the footbed, and re-insert firmly, pressing down until it is flat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost 18, it is important to allow the shoe to air out between uses, especially after damp or sweaty runs. Keep the shoes away from direct high-heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can degrade the cushioning foam over time. For cleaning, remove the sockliner and brush off loose dirt; use a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in a washing machine, as this can compromise the structural integrity of the mesh and the adhesive layers.
