Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max

i love the cushioning, color/shadeof the shoes, the comfort, light weight.

I was somewhat disappointed. I felt the shoe ran narrow in the width. My toes hit the tip and when out in the trail I felt the bottom of my toes had no protection. The cushion in the heel felt good but it does not extend to the front of the shoe. I have 4 other Brook shoes and this was my first disappointment. It was to be my new go to but now will be used occasionally.

Horrible shoe. Bottom chunk fell out of both shoes after 4 months. Terrible design! Shoe should have been recalled.

I love the cushioning these shoes provide. I wear them for every day errands as well as for gym classes, running.

I don't run but they are a comfortable shoe that I can wear all day with no problem

Good shoe, not the holy grail to help with my heal pain. It does a good job with support and has an interesting feel when walking in them.

I like the fit. I have a narrow foot with a high arch. I have not yet put many miles on them. So, the jury is still out I have not previously run in a cushioned, built up sole running shoe. I've always run in zero drop, minimalist shoes, which I love. Due to injury, I'm trying these shoes out. So far, they seem to protect my previously injured knee, as well as my more recent Achilles injury. I do feel they're a bit heavy. I'll update as I run in then more.

I've had these 2 weeks and so far still great! I walk over 70 miles a week and need supportive shoes for the sidewalks/streets that I hit daily. So far these have been great!

Great shoes, have numerous pairs for running and everyday and rotate with Glycerin 21! Really nice color selection and price!

They are comfortable. Hoping my plantars fasciitis will go away.

I'm still in the process of comparing this shoe with Ghost Max 2 and Glycerin 21 GTS. I've worn Ghost for years, recently tore an important tendon and the healing process is slow. I need more support, but not as much stiffness as the Glycerin 21 and Ghost max 2 provide - I experience pain at the 5th metatarsal head and as this part of my foot is engaged when I walk anywhere, it's hard to find a comfortable shoe to be doing the walking in.

Literally a game changer! I love running but after surgery on the ball of my foot, I found I really couldnt run anymore without flare ups. On top of that, I was getting shin splints and knee pain. Since buying these shoes Ive been able to run everyday and have ZERO pain! It was a bit of an adjustment as I think they were changing my form but its helped dramatically and Im so happy with them!

My new favorite running shoe. The Ghost had been my go-to for years. But the max gives the extra comfort on top of the great support. Will be buying another pair of these!

I buy Brooks because I have a bad back, bad knees, and high arches and theyve always been great. These are very cushy, but have zero arch support. My knees started to hurt on the elliptical with these, which never happens. I love the look and wish I could keep them.

They are great shoes. Fit well very springing but not overwhelmingly so. I'm a new runner and I Iove them. The only reason it's 4 stars is that I got the extra wide ones and they are still a little too narrow. I have some freakish feet I guess haha.

Love these! I have wide feet and tried Hoka wide, still hurt my feet. The extra wide Ghost Max are so comfy so far!

The Ghost Max is a great blend of cushioning and support. This is the second pair I've purchased; I liked the model so much that I bought a second pair when it went on sale!

I was a bit wary of a super cushioned shoe after a not favorable experience when a Hawaiian named shoe came out and I (Tried) to jump on the bandwagon. However, this shoe feels light, stable, supportive and not sluggish for a very comfortable and stride easy trainer. The low drop is a bonus, and this shoe compares favorably to my Caldera trail. This was a gamble that paid off, although I've never been disappointed with a Brooks product! Rated a 4 only because I tend to prefer a tight fit, and these are a bit more relaxed. (Boxers vs Briefs. IYKYK.)

Too narrow and short. I have wore Brooks for at least 15 years. Over the past several years they have gotten shorter, narrower and not true to size. Sadly they are no longer my go to shoe!

Great shoe I am a 8.5 and ordered a 9.5 I Have about .5 inch of space infront of my toe yet my foot stays in place I use them for work and they have made a difference. Will order more.

Nice fit and comfortable for the walking I do, not sure how the sole will wear, another good product from Brooks.

Very comfy and i fits very well

Very comfortable. I wear them all day to teach and my feet feel as if on a cloud.

I walk, I dont run. But these are great shoes. I have neuropathy and plantars faciatis. These give me support, cushion, and they are cute.

Purchased the extra wide GM2 for my niece and she said they are the most comfortable training shoe she has tried yet! Not to mention Brooks customer service is exceptional, they helped me reroute a package after making a shipping address mistake. 10/10
