Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max

Needs the rail like the Adrenaline version. Then perfect

The extra cushion is just what I needed and the shoes are very light. My knees and I are so happy!

AMAZING, Im a nurse and work 12 hour hospital shifts! These are so comfortable and supportive of my high arches. Like pillows on my feet. I would wear these running too! My other favorite shoe is the Brookes adrenaline 20 stealth fit, which now comes in second on the comfiest sneakers Ive ever owned. Which says a lot cause I have a lot of sneakers.

This is my daily work shoe and work out shoe. I had used the Glycerin GTS20 and these Ghost Max ones have better cushion. Love the cushion when running on treadmills and I found that super helpful when getting up after an hour of sitting ie inflamed Achilles Tendon. Love this! Wish they made more colors. Will definitely purchase again if my shoe ever wears out

I have been struggling all year with finding an easy long run shoe and look no more, I found it!! This shoe has great volume for my foot and feels so forgiving without feeling overly squishy. It has a great roll, especially descending and I have found it to have great energy return.

These are the shoes I didn't know I had been waiting on. I had been bouncing between Brooks and another popular thick sole brand but after a fall that fractured my shoulder, I was wanting a max comfort shoe that I could still feel the ground in. These answered my prayers. I feel they run slightly large in comparison to my Glycerins. I love the bright pink option rather than Brooks traditional calmer colors. I already plan to keep this on my frequent flyer list. Thanks Brooks for bringing in a new style.

Buy them! Youre welcome. Legit, walking on clouds. I sell cars so Im constantly hitting the pavement and ever since wearing these sneakers, Im not in pain and I dont mind doing laps around the lot. Total game changer. Wish I heard about this brand before. Only reason I bought them is that my customer had them on and said she suffers from back problems and her doctor highly recommended these to her.

Love these shoes so much! From the first moment I put them on they felt so comfortable I didnt even want to take them off and didnt even have to break them in. They help propel me forward when I walk because of the shape of the sole and are extremely supportive and cute. I loved them so much I bought a second pair in a different color. Highly recommend.

I tried Hoka Cliftons and the tongue rubbed my skin raw. Discovered this new release by Brooks and LOVE IT. Will buy more.

The new ghost max apparently have a problem with the decal coming off, I returned a pair that were two weeks old because of the brooks decal coming off, the second pair I got did the same.

I love these so much. My pain in my feet has been reduced, and I can run longer. My only gripe, Brooks, is that cool colors, prints and limited edition are never available for wide widths. Throw us a bone once in a while so we can hang with the cool kids! They will sell out!

Very comfortable after long walks!

Really like the Ghost Max, fit well, sort of rock when I walk, I like it!

The most comfortable running shoe I have worn. Usually when I like a shoe then get it in my size (11) it doesn't look like the same shoe. These are gorgeous in any size!

I always wear Ghosts, and when I heard about the Max, I had to try them. The Max are the most comfortable shoes I've ever put on. I walk about 20 miles per week and always had foot issues (arthritis) since my mid 40's. I wear my Max with custom orthotics. The jury is still out on how good these will hold up compared to the regular Ghost. Comfort is a 10.

Great shoe. I mostly walk and helps with valance. Also do glad you make a ghost in an extra wide

The cushion is amazing, and the shoe itself feels so stable vs other more cushioned brands I tried. I have been a Ghost fan since 2018 and now I have found my perfect long run and race day shoe. I can't wait till they stock more of my size and hopefully more colors/designs. They fit mostly true to size, I personally would not size up but the 8 is slightly tight. I think 8.5 would be too big,

Toe box wrinkles. Have to relace shoe. 1st mile takes getting use to but after that relax for a smooth transition. I am flat footed so I like the low mid sole drop.

I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for the better part of 3 years in my left foot (my podiatrist was talking about surgery at one point). Despite 2 sets of injections and physical therapy, I still would feel a tightness from the pf on the bottom of my foot during and after runnning - not the shooting pain from before but enough to be constantly aware of it. When I got the email from Brooks that the Ghost Max was available and might help with pf, I was willing to give it a try. For the first couple of times I ran for a couple of miles both outside and on the treadmill, my calf muscles were a little tight after the runs - but my feet felt good. I have since run about 4 miles twice in the last 4 days on the treadmill and there was virtually no tightness or pain for the first time in a long time, both during and after the runs. I had not realized how much I was mentally associating running with pain. I have only run a few times in the Ghost Max, but I am excited and hopeful that this will be an excellent tool against pf for me. I purchased the shoe in my usual size, not a half size larger that I normally do for the Ghost or Adrenaline. My podiatrist said I have very average feet (not narrow or wide; average arch).

I loved the Hoka Bondi 6 and 7. The eights didnt work for me and Ive bought three different sneakers in the last year looking for something that could carry me around on my 12 hour days at work and my 3-5 mile daily jogs. Im a 10 and these are true to size for me. I love the way the light gray/white looks and they are extremely comfortable and delivering so far for me. I have never worn Brooks before. My only complaint is that I sprayed them with Sneaker Protection twice over two days before wearing and they are already scuffed and dirty loooking. I would not purchase this color combo again.

I've had the Ghost 14s since winter. They worked great for me, and they fixed my heel strike. I bought the Ghost Max for a change to see if they would make me faster. These shoes feel like heavy boxes on my feet, and they are forcing me to heel strike again. I feel like I have no control over my stride, and my ankles feel wobbly on the large amount of cushion. Thought they'd make me faster, but they feel so restricting. Should've stuck with the regular Ghosts.

I took a chance and got these. I have been a avid ghost fan for a while so when I saw these I said these look comfy. Recently I have been increasing my mileage and feeling some tension in my ankles and shins. These are a GOD SEND!!! I love them so light, cushion is amazing and still neutral on the support. I am a solid size 8 the toe box is generous and the shoe is amazing!

After being prescribed medication for inflammation due to plantar fasciitis, I had another flair-up a month later and decided to order new shoes. I was going to order the regular Ghosts but saw these came out with better support. After two days, my inflammation went down (without medication, just these shoes and stretching). These have become my new go-to shoes and my only regret is not getting a second pair. I got a it in the white color and they are scuffed, like any white shoe, but I refuse to wash them just yet because I don't want to go a day without wearing them. I've used these for exercise (running, weights, walking) and these shoes are so comfortable. I highly recommended these shoes to anyone. Great for everyday, runs, walks, etc. I even wore these to see the 1975 recently and was able to last the entire concert standing without any foot aches or pains. Don't second guess, buy...you won't regret. The price is a little high but for as long as Brooks shoes have lasted me, it's well worth it.

Feels great for long walks or every day running around.

As an RN I work long days and mostly consisting of me being on my feet for long periods of time. My go to shoes are Brooks, hands down! I usually get the Brooks Adrenaline with guard rails but I thought Id try these. Definitely no regrets! So if youre on your feet for long periods of time, these are a great choice and by far the only brand I will trust to get me through a long work day.
