True to size for sure. It was a pretty radical feeling the first time I put them on with the way the heel on the sole concaves in. They are very lightweight and will work great for me as an everyday shoe. My running days were over more than 50 years ago. I have had 4 back surgeries in the last 10 years so I really wanted something supportive and lightweight. I just wish there were more color choices available. I ordered a pair in red after receiving the yellow version of which I returned because they are not tomato red, but quite a dull orange.
I'd also recommend:
I switched to Brooks from New Balance about 5 years ago and no longer have sole issues.

I usually run in the HyperionTempo and decides to give the MAX a try. Just went on a week long trip to Arizona and been using these shoes for hikes in the desert, runs on trails and streets and they are holding up very well. Start to heat up around mile #7 but overall very happy with them.

Excellent fit, amazing cushion and arch support- helpful to walk and also to protect my cervical (neck) and lumbar (back) spine. Very happy with these.

Love them. I do mostly 5-11 miles. Some 13-16, and some 3-5. I have very little flat terrain so I balk at heavy shoes. These shoes are exactly as advertised. When I am needing a push the response from the shoes is very adept. I am not an advanced runner but I do put in good miles and get better in races. At 58 I will pay to not have my shoe choice work against me! I really love the room inside I'll never Nike again!

I've ran 100 miles in these shoes over the last month or so and they still feel like the first day I got them. They've helped me improve my overall pace and I've been very pleased. Highly recommend for anyone looking to improve their pace and have comfort while doing so.

Love the shoes - lightest running shoe I've ever owned - feeling like nothing is on my feet- very stable with firm cushion ing - doesn't feel squishy or soft - feels like I'm running faster when I wear these shoes. Love them highly recommend these shoes if you want something that feels light and fast.

I've been running with various version of Glycerin, so this is little bit on the firmer side to me. It is good for speed training, even though I've worn it for over 13-mile half marathon workout. I've already put more than 60 miles on it mixed with interval workout and easy runs, I do not have any issue with that and enjoyed the shoes. Certainly a good buy for the price.

Light, responsive, firm. Overall very happy with it so far. I think it's a great shoe for tempo efforts and long runs. I've even used it comfortably for interval efforts. Ride definitely on the firmer side but it is still comfortable, but I like the midsole rigidity and rocker feel. One thing about that though is I adjusted my foot strike to be a little further back on the mid foot to get a bit more out of the rocker and rigid midsole.

Light, springy, fun. Huge fan of this shoe. It is replacing my Rincon 2s and 3s for my go to lightweight shoe. The response and low weight AND the comfort make this a new fave. Hoping Brooks keeps this particular model (the Hyperion max as opposed to the other Hyperion models) around. Solid shoe.

Fist time purchasing any Brooks running shoes and decided on the Hyperion Max. Best choice as I ran my PB 10k. Shoe is very light and feels great. First time running, felt very fast and I had to slow down. So far very happy.

Perfect fit, I go one half size up as with Nike. Wow these have the cushion from heaven. The red ones I purchased have only one issue or desire, I wish the red were darker . It’s fairly accurate in he photo however in person it does look more toward orange than a shade of red. Still with the cushion and fit literally beyond perfect, I won’t return them . I have the green and black ones too. I bet they will last years . Very, very well made . Toe box is wide and comfortable too.

The Hyperion Max shoes are comfortable, offering a smooth and enjoyable ride. Compared to their successor, the Hyperion Max 2, I've noticed they don't provide as much assistance with quick turnover or speed. While they might not make you feel significantly faster, they shine in delivering a steady, comfortable pace. I've found them to be an ideal choice for shorter distances or on days when my legs are feeling fatigued, as they offer the right balance of support and ease without pushing too hard. A solid option for recovery runs or lighter training sessions.

Shoes true to size. The cushion is a bit less than what I was excepting. More cushion in the heel which is good for heel sticking runners, which I am not. I will use these in rotation. Mostly for speed word.

I haven't had these long enough to give them 5 stars. I done a handful of runs and I just kind of forgot abou the new shoes, which for me is a good sign. When a shoe feels good enough that you don't even think about it, that's a keeper. They are a bit weird to walk in. They're obviously designed to promote a rolling foot strike (hope I'm using the appropriate description here). I tend to heel strike, so I think this feature is good for me. All they have to do now is just last for 400 miles or so and I'll be happy. I don't like the color of mine, but the price was right and size 14's aren't as plentiful.

This shoe is game-changing. The stability and "just right cushioning in its neutral stance is on another level. I have Glycerin Max and several other Brooks shoes. This shoe is honestly as comfortable to wear as any shoe I've ever worn. I liked them so much I bought a 2nd pair. I will definitely be buying the version three soon to add to my collection.
