These are too good! Right out the box comfort. I prefer a wider toe box on my shoes and these are comfortable without the clown look some give (these are so cute). I didnt buy them for looks, I had back surgery and lots of pain so I bought them for walking and standing. Im tempted to go buy every single color now because I instantly fell in love with these. I am a former Hoka die hard but I think I have tried everything and I used to run a lot so I am picky: New Balance (good not great cushion), Nike (too narrow and stiff), ON Cloud (just trash how do people like these), etc. The Ghost Max is top tier probably the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned! Plus the service from Brooks is TOP TIER as well! I wont ever wear anything else!

These shoes were comfortable the minute I put them on. The cushion on them is marshmallow soft and thick. Really helps with my flat feet during my workouts and I have no pain. Highly recommend!

These are my new favorite all-around shoes. I got them for the cushioning, hoping they'd work as a second shoe for training. To my surprise, they've made me faster, replacing my "racing shoes." Speed work, recovery run, long run. If they came in trail shoes, they'd be the only running shoes I owned.
I have 2 pairs now, the hot pink and black with blue/ pink. I really wish Brooks would make more color combos in the future.

I bought these on the recommendation of a friend at work. As a surgical tech I stand in the same spot for long hours and need alot of support! I feel like these cushion my feet perfectly and help relieve my achy feet all day. I have flat feet and I was scared these might be narrow and hurt the sides of my feet but they fit great and stretch! I have two pairs now and love using my other ones for running and they are amazing!! I am in love with the Ghost max!!

I have two pair of the Ghost Max. I wear them practically every day for walking but also for the support and structure I need for my fused ankle.

Great shoe. Ive worn Ghost for several years and decided to try a more cushioned version. Very comfortable without being too bouncy. Foot and ankle feel less stress when walking or running.

These shoes have been amazing. Super cushioned and comfortable. I didn't have a store with them in stock to try on first but I'm so happy I decided to give them a try. I walk 3-6 miles most evenings with running thrown in the mix. My feet don't hurt nearly as much as they did with my old shoes. I'll definitely be buying more soon!

I Goldilock-ed my way through a few styles, and I have to say the Ghost Max is exactly what I was looking for. Very comfortable in the heat and humidity for this 60+ year old to run and walk in.

Wanted to love these, because I love the regular ghosts and have had 3 pairs of those. However, theres something with these and perhaps its the extra cushioning that feels less supportive, less responsive, and overall less comfortable than the regular ghosts. I would actually say these are uncomfortable, at least for my feet. I run outdoors on the road, 5-7 days a week, averaging 20-30miles a week. I got these and a fresh pair of regular ghosts before my 4th LA marathon and knew By the 2nd wearing that I didnt want to wear the Max for the marathon. Maybe I will get used to them if I keep training in them, but as of now I still reach for the regular ghosts for an enjoyable run.

Good shoe. I walk 5 miles a day and like a thicker sole, just wish it was a little more padded on the inside.

Love my Ghost Max. They're so comfy and cushiony. My go-to were always Ghost but it was suggested I try the Ghost Max bc of my torn meniscus. I opted out of surgery and I've been in PT. I'm now able to walk about a mile around my hilly neighborhood pretty much pain free thanks to my Ghost Max, which is huge. I also get lots of compliments and I tell everyone about your wonderful customer service! I'll be buying another pair for sure.

So far so good. I am a 64 year old female that walks 3-5 miles daily. These shoes feel like I am walking on a cloud.....have worn Ghost and Adrenaline in the past, but these are my new 'go-to shoes!"

Most comfortable sneakers that I have had in a very long time. Well-cushioned, springy - makes walking/running easier on disintegrating joints!

They have a pretty good feel. A wide(r) than some of their competitor toe boxes, which I appreciated. Thick soles that feel good. It rounds up at the toe, which some people like and some dont. Maybe to help push you forward as you walk/run. It was a little strange when I first tried them on but now Im used to it. Overall comfy shoes and would recommend.

This shoe came highly recommended by a Brooks Field Rep., she recommended for the superior cushioning. It is the most used in my Brooks shoe rotation, however, the outer sole is wearing away and the mid sole is exposed. Highly disappointed in the sole quality. I hope the next version Ghost Max 2 has a stronger outersole.

I suffer from ball of foot pain from working in a grocery store with concrete floors. I have always had Brooks tennis shoes which are very comfortable, so I tried the Ghost Max. I had to order a half size larger due to the toe being a little more pointed than the regular Brooks 15. I have noticed a great improvement, but am still wearing a gel pad for ball of foot. I think I will continue to have improvement with my foot problems now.
