Great shoe! Cushiony, bouncy and helps maintain my balance. And, the color combo is fun.

Welp, much to my chagrin, I broke my right foot promptly after receiving these shoes. However, I still had multiple trips planned, including 2 out of town trips that had me "booting" around 4 airports and a day trip to Dollywood. The left shoe was super comfortable for all the "walking" I probably shouldn't have been doing, and it took great care of my one good foot. So, props to my left Brooks, and sorry to my right Brooks, who will be embarrassingly so much cleaner than my left once I heal up.

Ive been wearing Ghosts since the 13s and I love them, but the Ghost Max is walking on little clouds. So much cushion making them so comfortable to walk in. I use them for every day.

The Ghost Max did not feel comfortable to me.
I felt like the sole was too high and I was rocking.
I was very happy with the Dyad 11 and the previous versions of it.

Wore these while walking around Austin TX. Super comfy and honestly felt super cute due to the lift from the thicker sole. So glad I bought these!

I didn't care for these at all. I thought these were replacing the Dyads. They felt like I was walking on platform shoes, the cushion was ok, but it caused shooting pains around my ankle and the back of my knee when I took them out for a 2-mile walk. Unfortunately, I had to return them.

These are the most comfortable shoes Ive ever worn! I have arthritis in both big toes and the roomy toe area makes all the difference! No pain when I walk!

This is my second pair. They feel great right out of the box. The arch support is excellent. I havent suffered with plantar fasciitis since Ive been wearing them.

I absolutely live the Ghost Max even though I am not a runner. They are a stellar fit for my custom orthodics leaving me plenty of room for all of my toes. I have purchased multiple pair as these have fixed all the issues I developed with other shoes. I can walk anywhere without painful feet.

Comfortable shoes for walking.....like walking on clouds! I walk indoors on a treadmill and outdoors on paved trails....Ghost Max adapts well to both. Love the bright pink color. A new favorite!!

I have been looking for a shoe that provided a rubber sole that was not hard, but with some give, i.e., absorption. My go to shoe had been Hoka One One but the last two pairs seemed to lessen in quality. The Brooks shoe is little less expensive, and they feel good, so I ordered three more pairs (in case they stop making this model as manufacturers tend to do over time with popular shoe models).

I am a senior citizen (age 65) who started running again after a 3-year break. I tried on no less than 15 different brands/style. The Ghost Max far exceeded the others in comfort.

I LOVE the Ghost Max! I've been wearing the Ghost 15 for a couple of years. I've started to experience arthritis in my hip. My Dr. said no more high impact (running) exercise. I ordered a new pair of Ghost 15, but decided to try the Ghost Max to have another pair to switch off. The Max is so cushiony & soft. Really does help my hip issue. I usually wear a 6.5. These fit a little more wider than the 15's but I wouldn't go down a size. I'm definitely going to order another pair soon!

This is comfortable, but not as comfortable as I was hoping it would be with the considerable amount of cushion. My feet hurt after 15k steps.

I would give this shoe more stars if I could. I suppinate/under pronate - however you want to say it and this shoe is life changing. If I walked or was on my feet for any amount time, my feet hurt, it felt like my arches were falling all of the time. It was painful. Thanks to these shoes I have no issues. I am extremely grateful for the design and comfort of this shoe. And that these shoes were created.

I have been an avid Hoka user for years and let me tell you, these are so much more comfortable and supportive. I work in healthcare and am on my feet all day so I need a shoe that gives me arch support, balances my feet as a whole, and gives me that cushion I need. This shoe does it all and I will be buying these again and again. Love!!

Recent diagnosis of arthritis in my big toe sent me to my running store in search of a shoe to accommodate both my bunion & give support proper support to my foot. The rep recommended the Ghost Max for walking & gym machine use. Love them! So cushy & the wide size is just right for my foot. Please make more colors in wide! Thank you Brooks for helping me to walk in comfort!

I have had Mortons neuroma for awhile now, I used to wear launch 8s and they were ok, but after walking a mile my toes would go numb. My husband and I had a month long trip to the UK planned and I heard about the ghost max, I bought a pair and we did nothing but walk over 20,000 steps a day, climbed many a castle stair and my foot never hurt once!!!!! When we were half way through are trip ordered another pair! Extremely happy with the Ghost Max!

I have been wearing brooks the past 4 years and this is my favorite pair. This is my first pair of ghost max and it wont be the last! Very comfortable and feels like I am walking on clouds! I have knee issues and these shoes makes it so much more bearable! Great for those on their feet a long period of time.

I don't even know where to begin...I was really excited when my Ghost Max arrived but when I opened the box, I discovered that the shoes that were delivered were not even the Ghost Max but the Addiction shoes. Not only were they not the shoes I ordered, they've also been worn before and they're the wrong size. This was my first purchase from Brooks and this experience left me majorly disappointed. Once I figure out the returns, I don't think I'll be ordering from Brooks again.
