Customer Reviews Brooks Hyperion Max 3

I’ve run about 150 km in these shoes, and my running size is US 9.5. My overall impression: the design and shape look great visually, but the front part of the shoe narrows so much that it puts pressure on the toes — especially on the big toe. The reinforced area on top of the toe box presses down hard during long runs, causing severe pain. I ran the Istanbul Marathon in these, and my right big toe was so damaged that the nail is about to come off. The length fits true to size, but the toe box is too narrow, and the upper reinforcement presses too much on the big toe, making it impossible to run comfortably on long distances. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend these shoes for long-distance running. For short runs, they’re fine.
