I’ve worn Brooks for quite awhile. While their shoes were not keeping up with other brands bigger soles this pair came close. They are extra padded and seem comfy! I did find my left foot hurt on the top but hoping it will stretch out there.

These have been amazing. I had surgery 7 months ago and have been struggling with posterior tib tendon pain and arch pain ever since. The shoes alone were great and then coupled with Currex insoles it is the first time I have been able to walk without pain in over 5 years. Remarkable for me! The Bondi 8 by Hoka (while less attractive) have also been a good match for me but the Brooks are superior!!
I'd also recommend:
Bondi 8 - Hoka.

Hooray, someone makes extra wide sneakers. These are cushioned too. Took them straight out of the box for 7 miles and they were so comfortable.
I'd also recommend:
Hoka, ASICS, Saucony, Lowa

I was very happy with my Hoka Bondi 7. When the Bondi 8 came out they just plain hurt and I was on the prowl for my next go to running shoe. I saw the Ghost Max on Instagram and immediately went to check them out. I've been a long time Brooks fan so I purchased the Ghost Max. Well, they are my new "go to" running shoe. This was the feel I was looking for and I'm ready to buy another pair!

I love these shoes! I've been wearing Brooks addiction for years and was looking for something with a bit more cushion and this style is exactly what I was looking for. I love that they come in extra wide widths too.

These are my first Brooks . I previously only wore Hoka Bondi, but the newest ones are unappealing to me. I have to wear rocker bottom shoes and the Ghost Max fit that need. Once I saw the hot pink, I had to have them. They are really comfortable right out of the box, with a bouncy step from all the cushioning. The Ghost Max rocker bottoms are more comfy than on the Hokas, with more of a rocker. I have no problem wearing the Brooks with my aircast or orthotics. I really love these Ghost Max shoes.

The size and width of the shoe are true to size. Very comfortable and did not need a break in, I really like the "push forward" with this shoe. My podiatrist strongly recommended this shoe for me, and I am so glad he did!

Plenty of room in the toe box...I have bunions and these are the perfect width (11WW). I like that you made the black...all black but would love to have some color also.

These are really nice shoes. I had to choose between the Revel and the Ghost and price won out in the end. I would not hesitate to buy the Ghost in the future. Really nice shoes.

Very comfortable!! I am typically a Hoka girl but decided to give these a try. I wear these at work at the hospital where I’m on my feet for 12 hours a day. Super plush, not too narrow. Not sure if I would run in these (very plush and cushiony, and I need more stability for running), but amazing shoes for standing all day. Highly recommend

I love these! I incline walk on my treadmill for exercise and have metatarsalgia in my left foot. For whatever reason it's been bothering me a lot over the past few months while on the treadmill. After hitting the 25-30 minute mark the ball of my foot would start hurting to the point where I had to stop. I didn't want to keep cutting my treadmill time that short, so I started looking into running shoes for people with metatarsalgia and saw these recommended in an article somewhere. They've totally solved my issue. I'm back up to 45-60 minutes sessions with no pain. Beyond my foot issue I find them comfortable in general. They're cushioned, they help with stability while exercising, and they roll nicely from heel to toe. I wasn't sure what I'd think of them looks wise, but once I received them I was actually surprised at how much I liked the way they looked. Better in person than online imo (I got the black/papaya).

Reviewed at Brooks Running - Syndication
This was my second pair of Brooks running shoes after not knowing where else to go. I'm 5'5 plus size, with knee and sciatic pains. I recommend these shoes DEEPLY if you're looking for overall comfort, durability, and support. I tore these shoes out the frame after a good few months before they started losing support. I highly recommend these for walking/running or for work if you work on your feet a lot(ex: retail).
