Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max SE

Game Changing for an older runner, the cushioning on these makes for a smooth ride

The ghost max 2 feels fine - I had just expected them to feel better than my most recent Ghost (15?). I plan on keeping them as they are comfortable and look great.

I have been wearing Ghosts since at least the Ghost 12. I agree with other reviewers about how different the feel and fit is on the Ghost Max 2 compared to the other Ghosts. My feet hurt within minutes in these. It has much less arch support than expected and the toe box is also less supportive. I returned them within a few days.

I love Brooks running sneakers. I like the Addiction and Ariel. I need narrow sneakers. I really wanted an all white shoe like the Ghost Max 2. I had to return it since it was very roomy. Please make Ghost Max 2 in narrow.

These are great shoes! I have worn the adrenaline for 100 years and loved them. Since there are no fun adrenaline colors so far, I tried these and am surprised and really happy with them. Cushy like Hokas, but not cumbersome. I need more fun colors!

These are the best version of the Ghost so far! I work 12 hour shifts and Ive bought many shoes but this pair keeps me on my toes!

Love the color and extremely comfortable. My favorite shoe. No getting used to it or breaking it in...these are good looking and super comfortable.

While I LOVE the ORIGINAL GHOST MAX SHOE, the MAX 2 was so disappointing! I was so excited for the release, I actually ordered off of Amazon, to get them earlier than I would have directly from Brooks! The minute they arrived, I put them on and they just felt different. I thought maybe I just needed to break them in a bit first and they would be fine. I tried them for a week. They were awful! The toe box feels more constricted, there isnt very much arch support and the (main reason I LOVE Brooks Ghost Max) cushion is almost nonexistent! I am not a runner but I do depend on these shoes for long hospital shifts and also for walking/working out. By the end of the one week, both of my knees and my low back were hurting so bad that I just gave up! Im so sad because I had such high hopes for these shoes (sigh). This is the first and hopefully the only disappointment of my Brooks shoes experience!

I have tried ALOT of Running Shoes and these are it for me !!! No need to buy any other brand !

I love these shoes. Walking, skipping, strength training......they are great shoes for all of it!

Lots of cushion - great shoe to alternate with my regular ghosts. I primarily use them on treadmills

I am very pleased with my new Ghost Max 2 shoes. They felt a bit tight at first, but after a few wears they are my favorite shoes. The sole is perfect for the surface I walk/jog onrural blacktop with a lot of loose gravel. I will be getting these again!

Not as comfortable as GhostMax. Very disappointed

its a comfortable shoe but I can't wear it on longer runs or walks because it is too narrow. I normally don't have this problem with Brooks medium shoes.

Purchased the shoe not to run, but needed super comfortable shoes for upcoming vacation abroad. I have super wide feet so comfy shoes have always been an issue, but love these.

Extremely comfortable shoes!

The Ghost Max 2 has plenty of cushioning and looks super stylish! Ive worn Brooks Ghost consistently throughout the years and thought I couldnt find a better shoe. The Ghost Max 2 has me even MORE satisfied and comfortable!

The shoes fit fine & for once not too narrow like many of the other wide size running shoe brands I have tried.

Definitely not an improvement. Tighter fit, felt more cheaply made. Please do not discontinue the original ghost max!

Its very comfortable. It changed my life. I used to have pain on the sides of my foot, but now that I discovered I needed and extra wide shoes. I really loved it. No more pain. Plus the cushion was great! Ill buy more in the future.

I love the original Ghost Max in the B width, but the Max 2 does not work for me. The Ghost Max 2 constricts my forefoot in both the B and D widths. Although I like the firmness of the cushioning in the Max 2, the shoe feels manipulative in the forefoot, not neutral. I returned the Max 2's. I am a walker, 4-6 miles a day. I have arthritis in the balls of my feet, and the original Ghost Max is very comfortable.

Disappointed.. half size smaller, less cushion, and stiffer than original. I didnt like it, I will return as soon as I print out return label..

Few modifications, same great shoe

These are so comfy! The only problem I have is that there are not many color options for someone who has to order xx wide shoes.

Very comfortable shoe! I love the cushioning in the Ghost Max line. I just wish there were more colors for wide widths/larger sizes. I'm an 11W and there are only a few color options each time.
