Too bulky for everyday wear. They were comfortable and supportive but I elected to return them.

Absolutely LOVE the comfort and support of this shoe. This is the best version yet. Only wish Brooks would better stock sizes because they sell out extremely fast and remain sold out.

I like the ghost max better. Seems like the ghost max 2 the toe box is smaller and the shoe size run smaller. I wear size 10. But get a size up for running. The 10/5 my toe is all the way to end of the shoe.

Great shoes for running, walking or standing on your feet for long periods of time feels like your walking on air

They should let us customize the colors because the options currently are trash. And I doubt they're gonna release more colors anytime soon...
Usually size 8.5 women for regular sneakers but I need size 8 wide. Feels a little snug in the toes but it should be fine once worn a couple times.

Love love love these shoes! I typically wear Glycerins only but decided to give these a go.I bought another pair right away and use them at the gym. Excellent support and cushion!

I rotate these with my other walking shoes when I walk my dog everyday. They initially felt less cushy than the original ghost maxes and after about 7 weeks of every other day wear, there is practically no cushion left. Big expense for little wear.

Little snug at first medium width. Feeling much better with wear. Use for work since I am on my feet. Love them.

I loved my original Ghost Max and loved the look of the Ghost Max 2. Unfortunately its not the same fit. What a disappointment! Unfortunately its to late to return them.

These are so beautiful and comfy overall! However these feel more narrow in the outer toe area than the original Max style. It might just be me but I tried adjusting the tightness with the laces and still found them a bit tight. Most likely will return and get another pair of the original Max style.

I'm so disappointed! Ghost Max 1 was a dream come true and it fit my rigid orthotics beautifully. The heel cup in the new design is shallower, so it won't work for me. My heel slides out.

These are my first pair of brooks and I was really excited to give them a try. The shoes provide great support as Iam on my feet all day. I noticed during the first week of wearing the shoes that my ankles felt achy- but have since resolved. My only complaint is that the shoes are not true to size. I normally wear a size 9 but I felt that this fit felt snug. I will be exchanging this for a size 9.5 to see if its a better fit

Feels like the shoes run small. Or forces my toe forward. I didnt notice it until after my first run, so too late to return. A little frustrated that I will have to run these down before my next pair

I love the whole line of of ghost shoes and have been wearing them a long time. The new Ghost Max 2 is cushiony and comfy. I wish it came in more colors though. To be honest, I only walk in them so I cant speak to how they would be for a running shoe. They are wonderful for walking. Actually my daughter in law runs in them and she raves about them. Ive been wearing Brooks since the 70s when I did run and my first pair were Brooks Villanovas in blue and red.

I love my Ghost Max shoes, so I was eager to try Ghost Max 2. The new version is definitely smaller and more cramped. I held one up to my older version, and the hew GhostMax 2 is shorter in length. Will be returning as soon as I can print out return label.

After doing a lot of research on sneakers that I will need for a long pilgrimage walk, and also for needing wide width, I chose the Ghost Max. They felt good as soon as I put them on and I am breaking them in now. However, I am disappointed that now Brooks sends me a 20% discount coupon on another pair??? I would have appreciated that $30 discount when I bought them.

I was concerned that I wouldn't actually like these shoes, I've never worn a max cushion shoe before. But now I'm a convert! I generally run ~5k at 8:30 pace on roads every morning and have been thoroughly enjoying the comfort and springyness. Usually I switch off shoes each run, but I've been wearing these ones every time instead. They do run a hair small, I bought my normal size and initially thought I'd have to return them for a size up, but they ended up being just barely long enough.

Best shoe I have ever bought new and new right away; these are amazing !!! Love how they feel walking (even 4.5 miles). I do have a different stride; can feel different muscles in my legs being used. That is a good thing. The top of the shoe is caving in at the toe (divet like) ; the transcends did too... maybe a bigger size is needed? I had good stability and control with these as well. Fit is standard with normal size I wear of 11.5 (could be a smidge smaller and has some extra room in the width). Over all; these are good.
