WOW! I have run in Ghosts for many years, and pre-ordered these because I need more cushion. These shoes are terrific! My legs hurt less, my knees hurt less, and I can run farther! I did a 10k this fall because of these shoes (I'm usually a 5k runner). I also have pair of Hoka Bondis, and like these better because of the rocking motion and because the mid-sole is wider. I am so, so happy that Brooks made these shoes!

I love running in this shoe! It is cushiony enough that it absorbs impacts on longer runs but not too soft that you feel unstable. It does run a tiny it wider than my glycerin's, but it will definitely stay in my rotation as a daily trainer.

I didn't think the cushioning was as good as Ariel that I normally wear (at least 4 pairs). Also, not as much support for my needs. I am trying to return them but I do not have the order number.

Did not like at all. Being sold as a Ghost shoe you would expect them to be the same as the other ghost shoes. The heel drop is a 6 for the max vs a 12 for the ghost
I loved the cushion but could not handle the difference in heel drop

I've been wearing ghosts for years and the new max edition really blew me away. Feels sophisticated and well-cushioned, but not so different that I had any soreness or major adjustments to make when changing from past ghosts to this pair.

These shoes are wonderful! I have problems with my feet and my knees and I finally found some shoes that I can wear that I don't suffer any pain after being out for a couple of hours. Superb cushioning and comfort.

Love the new Ghost Max. Such a cushy run. As an older runner, I appreciate all this shoe has to offer. Already bought myself 2 more pair and talked my husband into trying out a pair for himself. He is purchasing another pair also.

I like the concept but it will be a fantastic shoe if it have the same cushion as the glycerin Soft but yet firm I used for two days and it flare up my plantar fasciitis so I stay using my glycerin 20 they are very cute and run TTS but they just not for me.

Really springy and well cushioned. The length and width are what I would expect. Love that the color is soft white with a little grey.

The Ghost has been my go to for a few years now, but wanted to try the new max. Found them to be very cushioned, love the rocker technology, felt like I could keep going. Very light weight. My hips and knees feel much better tonight than usual. The pink color is very light and worked well with my tan uniform
pants. I'll definitely get the black for my part time job.

Lightweight, cushioned support. Lighter than my Hokas.
Now Brooks needs to start making these in some cool colors!

As an older runner (82 yrs) I wanted a running shoe with a maximum cushioning. I spoke with a Brooks representative about the shoe and she indicated it was also a good runners shoe. I have worn the shoes for almost a month and can say they are not a runners shoe, at least for older folks. I do use them for my daily workout runs (5k's) and they feel heavy, and my average time is slower than when I use my Ghost 15's. If I run on solid concrete they function better (longer stride) than when on mixed material roadways. I wouldn't use them in a challenging event race, and will use my Ghost 15's as I have normally. I will use the Ghost Max as a training shoe and the extra weight should help when the lighter Ghost 15's are used. The Ghost Max is a great walking shoe just not appropriate for my running and I have an event race October 19th and hopefully will see better results from working with a heavier shoe in practice.

I love the cushioning for sure! However, the upper began to wear through an approximately less than a year. Disappointing. A downer, so to speak given the price. Still, a very good shoe. From my understanding, the second edition is taking care of the material on the upper for this next go round. Hope so. Going to stick with the Glycerin GTS a Morgan nd about ready to receive a pair of Adrenaline GTS as my cross trainers so to speak. Holding my breath on the toe box space.

I purchased this shoe for the extra cushioning which is made it comfortable. Although I wear a size 10 in every Brooks shoe style i own this shoe was at least a 10,5 or 11 in feel so I had to return them .
