Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max SE

Love them!! Very supportive!!

They are my favorite par of shoes yet! I prefer them to the first version of this shoe. They made a lot of good improvements!

These were nice, but I have returned them. The cushioning was very comfortable, but I didn't like the thick sole. I am a 70 year old retired physical therapist and I am very active, but not a runner. As people get older, they are less likely to lift their feet off the ground and it is very easy to catch the sole on a carpet or floor. I need to feel where the ground is and with these I can't. I have always recommended that my older patients not use an aggressive sole (such as trail runners) because I have seen several patients trip and fall. This is especially in areas such as the mall with low indoor/outdoor type carpet. These have a smoother sole, but you are walking on the thick sole, instead of on the floor surface. They may be ok for younger runners, but they are not safe for elderly walkers. I worry because these thicker soles seem to be the new trendy thing. My daughter has worn your ghosts for years to run marathons. She didn't like these either.

The mesh in the big toe area is wrinkling or puckered, rubbing on my big toe.

To firm. Post reconstructive ankle surgery. Was looking for a replacement of my Max Ghost. These werent them. Was able to track a couple pairs of old reliable and unfortunately had to return the Ghost Max SE and ghost max 2

Bought as a gift, nothing special looking about them. Ok shoe but considering the cost of manufacturing this shoe is obnoxiously overpriced. Would not buy other than Christmas gift.

So far I'm loving these shoes. They fit as expected and have more cushion than my previous brooks shoes. I like the plush feel when going on my walks.

Toe area smaller and narrower and overall shoe stiffer than other ghosts. They didn't work for me and I returned.

I have peroneal tendonitis caused by supination which means my feet rolls to the outside. I need a shoe that has full support and maximum cushion which the Ghost Max 2 provides. I do have to remove the insoles that come with the Ghost Max 2 and use insoles that correct the supination. The Ghost Max 2 shoe is very comfortable and looks good, too! I usually have to order a wide width shoe but the Ghost Max 2 medium width fits my feet perfectly. Great stability and super cushiony. I'm not a runner but a walker.

Fantastic super stable amazing comfort

Best sneakers I have ever owned. So grateful my feet are finally happy

Bought for my daughter in law for Christmas. She always wears Brooks. She loves them.

I love the original Ghost Max, and wore that pair of shoes out! Ghost Max 2 seems to have a slightly narrower toe box. Not entirely narrow, just more narrow than the original. My baby toes rub on the side of the shoe a bit, which is the only reason I took 1 star off.

I have to be honest I dont run but did a lot of walking on vacation in the shoes and they were super comfortable!

My 2nd ghost max shoe. They truly are my favorite go-to shoe when doing my long runs. Hold up really well!

I loved the Ghost Max, do when I was ready to get a new pair and I started to search, I found the Ghost Max 2 was its replacement so to speak. The problem with the Ghost Max 2 for me was every pair I put on, felt so different. I had 6 boxes home and all but one did not feel right. The style number was the same , but the fit was not . I even called Brooks and they said that this was strange. Any way, I decided on the most comfortable one of six to keep and I am hoping for the price esp., I'll be as happy with them as with the Ghost Max.

They offer great support, comfort throughout my 12 hour shifts, and are very stylish! Great addition to my footwear rotation!

Not sure theyre for me. The curved sole has me off balance at times. I admit the interior is very comfy, I have plantar fasciitis and dont need insoles with these. They are ugly! Jury still out.

Comfy but slippery on wet sidewalk! Ive almost fallen a few times while walking my dog so they are going back :(

I was experiencing pain in the soles of my feet. i tried on several different brands and nothing felt right. I tried on the Ghost Max and immediately the pain in the soles of my feet was relieved. Alleluia.

I've tried several brooks, they just don't work for me.

Right from the start, I knew they would be wonderful and comfy. Love these shoes!
