So thankful they went back to a wide toe box like the ghost max (original). So roomy for my toes without the extra width on my narrow heels. Love the new cushioning!

My go to sneaker. I replace the footbed in all of mine with a super feet arch support footbed because of my high arches. These are really comfortable now.

Perfect shoes for my feet. I have worn Brooks Ghost shoes for years. This is the best shoe yet. Heel cushioning is extremely important for me as I have nerve damage in my left leg. I love these shoes.

I ordered 4 pair of shoes for an upcoming trip. These were the winner. They have a wide toe box and are comfortable so far. I am still testing them out to make sure they will work for full day walking expeditions.

Winner! Winner! I love these sneakers. I have two pair of Ghost Max 2’s and this is even better. The only shoe that I can wear right now with the pain I have in my legs. I wanted to like another brand of shoes, but they were just not right for me. Brooks has been my go to brand or years. My only issue is that the shoe strings are too short.

These shoes would be perfect if the tongue didn't jab into my instep.

I had bought Ghost Max last year and loved them from the moment I put them on. They are already showing some wear so I bought the newest version. I am not as pleased with them as my previous pair. The toe box doesn't seem as big and my toes feel cramped. I had foot surgery a few years ago, so I need a shoe with ample toe room and lots of cushion. I prefer my previous pair.

I walk every day on asphalt around three 3 1/2 miles. I’ve bought these shoes to help absorb the shock on my feet. They have definitely helped to absorb the shock which helps the bottom of my feet and my knees.

Brooks are my go to shoe. I love this pair. The blue color is beautiful. The fit is great. Some Brooks have a tighter toe box. This is roomy without looking super wide and boxy.

Ive been loving my Ghost Max 3s, especially for refereeing basketball. Theyre incredibly lightweight and comfortable, which matters when Im on my feet for long games and constantly moving up and down the floor. The fit is really secure, my feet feel locked in without being cramped, and I never feel like Im sliding around inside the shoe, even with all the quick cuts, pivots, and sudden stops. What really sold me is how versatile they are. I travel all over the place for games, and these have been easy to pack, easy to wear, and reliable every time I lace them up. Whether Im sprinting in transition or standing for long stretches, they feel stable and supportive. Theyve quickly become my go-to because they just work. They are comfortable, dependable, and perfect for the demands of refereeing.

Excellent shoe. For a person with a knee problem this shoe has changed everything. I would definitely recommend for anyone.

I have tried about every shoe that people told me were the best. I tried these based on how they felt the first time I tried them on. No way did I think I found THE shoe! They are the best ever and Im on my feet all day, up and down three flights of stairs several times a day. I am a senior citizen and took this job but after a month thought I was going to have to leave it because when I got home at night, I couldnt walk. Well, no more. These shoes have answered my prayer. Thank you Brooks. Bought 3 pair.

I loved almost everything about these shoes. Great cushion and nice rounded toe box. Unfortunately I had to return them because the collar hit my ankle bone on both sides. The collar was too high for me.

I did not purchase these shoes for running. I am a Registered Nurse and needed a supportive shoe with a wider toe bed. These shoes met those needs and my feet and legs are much more comfortable at the end of the day.

Really cushy but come higher than my other Brooks and rub the outside of my ankles.

The shoe was too bulky in the heel for me and was hurting the bottom of my foot five miles into my run. They will be good to walk around in but I won't be able to use them for running.

I bought these more as a walking shoe. My previous pairs were your regular ghosts, but when I saw that you offered a more more cushioned sole, I decided to give them a try. Wow! They feel amazing! As a teacher, these allow me to get through the long days of standing so much easier. Great overall support for your feet.

I wore this shoe with my custom orthotics for a week around the house. We only have tile floors. By the end of the week, my neuroma was really painful. I’ve worn custom orthotics for 3 years and they keep the neuroma from hurting…until now. It might be the roll of the shoe, I’m not certain but unfortunately these are going to be returned. I took out the orthotic and just wore the shoe with the accompanying insert. The pain became much worse. Even worse than if I walked around barefoot. Otherwise, it’s a very comfortable shoe with excellent cushioning and I would say that it’s made better than even Hoka’s. It’s just not for my troubled foot. Sizing was spot on; 9, wide. I have a wide foot that swells do to a bone injury. This shoe was very accommodating for that condition.

The fit was ok, but the sole is too thick, inflexible & “clunky.” As a result I tripped while walking on a perfectly smooth area rug in my home. I have very good balance! Luckily, I was not injured!

These are amazing. I have long used Brooks due to issues with my feet. I am not an athlete but do enjoy walking. Recently I developed a serious case of Plantar faciitis and it was no joke. I found my other shoes to be a bit harder to the touch despite having great shoes. These offered a neutral shoe with more of a cushion and great support for my feet. They greatly lowered my pain.

These are extremely comfortable. I wear an 8 in Adidias, 9 in Brooks - ordered a 9 and they fit perfectly. I haven’t noticed any ankle rubbing or blisters after a run or working out, even though this seems to be a common complaint with the 22s. Happy with my purchase!

I love the look of these shoes but the fit is exactly what I hoped for when I ordered wide. The are cute, sturdy but very comfortable. I love being able to order these from Zappos. What a terrific company!
