Full details
The Brooks Ghost 17 GTX Road Running Shoes are designed for adult female runners seeking waterproof protection and comfort in wet conditions. The key benefit is staying dry and comfortable during runs, thanks to the GORE-TEX waterproof upper. However, keep in mind that while these shoes are designed for breathability, they may feel warmer than non-waterproof running shoes in mild conditions. These shoes feature a GORE-TEX waterproof upper, nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 midsole, and a redesigned outsole for enhanced grip, making them ideal for rainy day runs and unpredictable climates.

FAQs
Are the Brooks Ghost 17 GTX true to size?
Yes, these shoes are designed to fit like the standard Ghost series. It's recommended to order your usual running shoe size.
Can I wear these shoes in warm weather?
Yes, but they may feel warmer than shoes without a waterproof membrane. Consider the weather conditions and your personal comfort.
How do I clean the shoes?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
While these shoes can handle some mild trails, they are primarily designed for road running. For more rugged terrain, consider dedicated trail running shoes.
What is the lifespan of the shoes?

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?
Choose running socks made from moisture-wicking materials to enhance comfort and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel warmer than expected.
The GORE-TEX membrane, while breathable, can retain heat. Consider wearing thinner socks or using these shoes primarily in cooler, wetter conditions.
Reduced grip on very slick surfaces.
While the outsole provides good grip, extreme conditions may still pose a challenge. Exercise caution and adjust your stride accordingly.
