🚫 WHEN NOT TO CHOOSE THIS SHOE
❌ Trail running → needs lugged sole: see Men's Running Shoes
❌ Fast reps under 4'00"/km → too cushioned, needs a reactive shoe
❌ Severe pronation → needs Brooks Adrenaline GTS: see Brooks Collection
❌ Weight over 95kg → needs Brooks Glycerin with maximum cushioning
❌ Low drop 0–6mm → Ghost has a 12mm drop, not suitable for minimalists
🧺 MAINTENANCE AND CARE
🌡️ Never machine wash/dry — degrades DNA LOFT and midsole glue
🧽 Clean with a damp cloth after each run, remove insole for drying
☀️ Air dry naturally away from direct heat (sun/radiator)
🔄 Recommended rotation: alternate with a second shoe — DNA LOFT recovers elasticity in 24–48h
📦 Replacement: when midsole loses responsiveness or outsole is worn more than 3mm
💡 EDUCATIONAL SECTION — How to choose the right running shoe
The choice depends on 5 factors: 1) Footstrike (wet test: full footprint = pronator → Adrenaline GTS, outer = supinator → Glycerin, central = neutral → Ghost), 2) Weight (60–90kg = Ghost ideal, over 90kg = Glycerin), 3) Distance (5–25km = Ghost, over 25km = Glycerin or Hyperion Max), 4) Surface (asphalt = Ghost, trail = Cascadia), 5) Pace (over 4'30"/km = Ghost perfect, under 4'00" = Hyperion). 12mm drop protects sensitive Achilles tendon.
