Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max SE

Not a runner but theses shoes are great for walking.

Third time seems to be a charm. After toe surgery foot needed more width. Foot doc said Brooks are great but tend to run narrow.

Great shoe! Great shoe! Great shoe!

I am 80 years old and I do not run. I walk 2 miles Monday-Friday at my gym and also do stronger senior classes 3 days a week. I love the Ghost Max shoe!!! This is my second pair and these are just as comfortable as the first Ghost Max. Love the cushioning in the inside and outside of the shoe. I would highly recommend these shoes whether you are a runner or a walker like me.

Not what I expected as far as comfort/cushion in sole. I honestly think my regular ghost shoes have more cushion, arch support and overall feel more comfortable. I was definitely disappointed with the ghost max.

Very easy on the knees and makes my run stride feel much smoother. I'm 75, but young or old will find this a great running / walking shoe.

Talk about a comfortable and cushy run! Not to mention, they are great as an everyday shoe. Im ready to get them in all colors.

These are horrible. I wore the dyad for a decade and these new versions are so bad. The top of my foot hurts from the rocking forward. The tongue moves all around. They are crushed out after 1 month. Basically I need to find a new shoe that works with my orthotics.

I am a nurse and on my feet a lot. They are okay for about 2 hours of constant standing/walking. I was hoping for better with all the positive reviews!!

I havent run in these. I wear them to the gym and if Im on long walks. They have a lot of cushioning and feel like Im walking on air. I love them!

Im not a runner, but I am a bartender, I was having a lot of foot and hip issues. I called my nurse friend and asked what she wore to get thru her 12+ hour shifts, Brooks she said, best advice I ever took, the first night I felt a noticeable improvement, and 2 weeks in Im almost pain free. Im getting ready to order a second pair, Im hooked on a great thing

Im a walker not runner but straight from the box I wore these all over Spain, Portugal and Morocco! Miles of pavement and uneven cobblestones! My feet never hurt! Not a blister or even sore spot! I have worn Brooks for years after several foot and ankle surgeries, these are the best Ive ever had!!

I have knee and foot arthritis. Wearing the Ghost 2 is ,like walking on shock absorbers for my joints. I love them and will be ordering a second pair soon.

A little disappointed in this shoe. I absolutely loved last year's Ghost Max and only gave it up because I'd almost shredded the soles. The funny thing is last year's Ghost Max were a little big and I had to add a foam inner sole for best fit. In contrast, the Ghost Max 2 feels much smaller, especially in length. I haven't given up on them yet since last year's were so great, but I may end up sending them back & returning to the basic Ghost.

Not as cushioned as I'd of thought they would be. I have joint issues and especially in my feet. All my Brooks shoes, and I have about a dozen are all an all day shoe for my feet, these are about half a day. And they make my feet sweat....a first

They are bulky. I just don't like them like I have other Brooks shoes.

They are so comfortable and light! I've gotten compliments already!

Overall, i really like the shoe. its got a more firm sole compared to the glycerin. the tongue is cushy and doesnt bug me when running or walking. i use the shoe for both. its true to size. i dont feel squeezed or like im flopping around in it. it feels like a really good fit. i typically need insoles in any shoe and these, i dont. this shoe gives good support for my arches (i have high arches). the only complaints i have are the tongue is VERY cushioned and so its tricky to get a good tightness without holding the laces tight as you tighten the laces up the shoe. and secondly, i wish all the colors came in wide and not just select ones.

I typically wear the Glycerin Stealthfit but liked the look of this shoe so I thought Id give it try. Im glad I did. Love the stability and support this shoe provides. One of my favs.

Excellent shoes, light weight, cushiony and wide in the toe box for bunions.

I have had my ankle fused in 3 places and Im a nurse on my feet all day long. Ghost max shoes were amazing the only thing that didnt hurt my feet. Ghost max shoes dont even begin to compare. The more cushion almost feels like hoka shoes which were awful for me and then the toe box in these shoes is so much smaller. My feet feel like they cant breathe at all. I cant wait to get home from working all day and get them off. Very disappointed. Please bring back the ghost max. I dont even know what shoe to turn to next :(

In love with these! These are my first pair of Brooks after returning the Hyperion because they were too narrow for me. The ghosts are so comfy, cute and cushioned for my long runs or long days at work. Im excited to get more!

These are not as comfortable as the first ghost max. The tongue is big and very uncomfortable and jabs into the front of the ankle. Cushioning doesnt seem as good as the first ghost max either. I have planters fasciitis and these have inflamed it more when I wear whereas the first ghost max I had no issues with this.

I have been using Ghost line for years, so I thought I would try these out because I'm on concrete a lot of the time and was looking for extra cushion. Big mistake! My achilles has been hurting since I've been wearing them and because the cushions are so thick I'm tripping over everything! These are definitely not for everyone, I'm very disappointed. I do like the style, but these shoes don't fit my lifestyle.
