Super comfortable cushioning for a bunion that has become painful. Roomy in the toe area. I dont run, I walk a lot. These are great!
My normal size in non athletic shoes is 9.5. I had to size up a full size to 10.5 for the Max. So I would say, runs small.

I love them. I have RA and my feet hurt all the time. I work standing and walking 8-9 hours a day and with these shoes my feet still feel good by the end of the day. Thanks. I highly recommend if you need cushioning.

I've been wearing Ghost sneakers for years. I have wide, thick feet and they're the only shoes that feel like they are made for me.
However, with some heath issues causing worsening plantar fasciitis, the Ghosts don't have quite enough cushioning for standing/walking for long periods of time.
The Max shoes are just like Ghost but with enough extra cushioning that my feet are in heaven.
I got the same size as I get in Ghost, 9W. I'm normally either a 8.5W or 9W depending on shoes. This fits me perfectly and has plenty of room for my toes.
My friends had recommended Hokas to me for the cushioning; however, those were too tight even in wide and also have more external bulk than these shoes.
Highly recommend the Ghost Max for anyone who wants a comfortable, cushioned, supportive, cute shoe!

The shoes at first seemed to be awesome. They are very comfortable on my feet. The only issue is that the shoes base is too bouncy for me. Basically the shoes set off the issues with my lower back and caused sciatica. As soon as I stopped wearing them, then my back starting feeling better. The hip and back pain was relieved. I like the shoes, but the support material/consistency doesnt work for me.

These shoes have exceeded my expectations. They feel featherlight and are so comfortable. Happy they come in wide width. When you can go for a walk and not once think about or feel your shoe, you know its comfy!

Currently using this particular shoe for work in the medical field. My feet feel great after standing all day. Toe box is perfect with plenty of room. The extra cushioned sole is a game changer. Absolutely love them and will be buying more for running! Please make these in the more colors and a red, white and blue theme!

I love my new Brooks Ghost Max. I am not a runner; I wear Brooks Ghost shoe because it has a natural last; because it comes in wide; and is very comfortable. I am 82 and have severe peripheral neuropathy. The new Ghost Max.has additional cushioning which is very helpful and alleviates pain.

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
These just didn't work for my feet. They fit well and were comfortable, but when I ran they felt like they were overcorrecting my gait. I supinate (strike with the outer edge of my foot/heel) slightly and with every stride, it felt like the arch padding was pushing upwards. Firmly. Odd feeling. not the shoes for me.

I have bunions. I am also very active, walking at least 2-4 miles each day, biking or playing pickleball. Brooks walking shoes are the most supportive & comfortable shoes in my closet. I will be ordering more. I only wish Brooks made evening/dressy fun walking shoes in silver & sparkles. Thank you

Have worn Hoka Bondis for more than 10 years but have found recently that the quality and styling have declined
I decided to give the Ghost Max a try and Im so happy that I did.
I am not an Athlete just a 65-year-old woman with Knee issues and a job that has me on my feet 40+ hours a week

The Ghost Max is the MOST comfortable Ghost yet! I have 3 Ghost Max pairs and LOVE them all! I have over a dozen Brooks running shoes and they are my most favorite brand! They are great for work, recreation and just everyday wear! I have numerous colors to coordinate with my outfit of the day! The roomy toe box is such a wonderful feature! I never get blisters even after walking all day at Disney or after running a 5K!

These shoes are great. I have 2 pairs of them. I dont run but need the cushioning of these to do walking. They have a roomy toe box and good arch support. They also look sporty.

This is a great show, much better than the older Ghost I had a while back, more cushioning for all day comfort! Great shoe! I will be buying more of these in the future! I usually buy the Glycerin, these are as good for me!
