FAQs
Is the Brooks Ghost 18 suitable for flat feet?
The Ghost 18 is a neutral trainer. While it provides excellent comfort, those who require significant medial support for flat feet may want to consult with a podiatrist or consider an orthotic insert.
Can I use these for marathon training?
Yes, the Ghost 18 is specifically designed to handle the mileage requirements of marathon training due to its focus on comfort and consistency.
How often should I replace my Ghost 18s?
Generally, running shoes like the Ghost 18 should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the engineered mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability, meaning they are not waterproof.
What is the weight of the shoe?
The Ghost 18 is designed to be lightweight for daily training, though specific gram weights can vary by size.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure or discomfort on the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' or 'gap lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the midfoot.
Heel slipping during movement
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to perform a runner's loop, which secures the heel more firmly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Consistent and reliable ride quality for daily mileage

- Soft cushioning effectively minimizes impact
- Versatile design suitable for both easy runs and varied workouts

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience with your Brooks Ghost 18 trainers, perform a proper 'heel lock' lacing technique if you feel any slippage during your run. These shoes are compatible with most standard orthotic inserts if you require custom support. For care, avoid putting the trainers in the washing machine or dryer, as high heat can degrade the cushioning materials. Instead, clean the exterior with a soft brush and mild soap, then allow them to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or intense heat sources.
