Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max 2

Well, I'm no runner. Just an old lady with feet that have been broken, had bunions, and one foot fused. Forgot to mention I have Hobbit feet that are very wide. The 2E is amazing! You've done everything right with this shoe design. By some miracle, they have given me a perfectly normal gait again! There is plenty of toe width and depth for the metal insert, as well as the metal plate in my foot. For all you yunguns out there, this is what happens after a lifetime of wearing poorly designed shoes that are not shaped like feet, and squeeze your feetn forcing the big toe to be pulled inward. Brooks gets it. Ghost Max 2 is designed for foot comfort, and style. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to get out and enjoy nature again. The only drawback is the 2E usually only comes in black...truly "old lady" looking. Luckily, I had a little Testors enamel model car paint. Look at them now! They are transformed to look a little more stylish, less "old lady." Will be looking for these in a variety of colors! Thanks so much!

I got these in an extra wide for my mom after trying all the other brands (Hoka, New Balance, etc.) and they are a class above all. The cushioning is amazing cant feel the concrete or asphalt ground/surface pressure when walking and is the only shoe that accommodates her bunions and bone spurs and is still roomy in the toe box to be able to walk in comfort and with joy! Thank You Brooks, after a year of searching my Moms feet are finally happy!

Great for plantar fasciitis but the material is not up to par. Here is a pic of the ghost max winter green color vs the ghost max 2 black. Purchased on same date I alternate wearing them. Black have holes in the heel. For $150. This is not acceptable had several of ghost max black and never had holes before.

I have tried about a million shoes looking for one that took away my leg/knee pain. I work on my feet all day in the medical field. I tried other popular brands like Hoka and they just unfortunately didn't work for me. These shoes instantly felt like a match made in heaven. After one day of wearing them at work I could feel the difference. It has taken away my knee and feet pain as well as improved my back pain. I also do workout/walk and it's amazing for that as well. 100 recommend! I even bought a pair for my mom who works on her feet all day and she loved them too! She said it helped with her plantar fasciitis!
