These shoes are very comfortable. I have trouble with a bunion plus an old lower back injury which both which can become painful if I wear shoes that don’t work well. These feel great!

These shoes were not cushioned like described. Way too hard for me. Going back to Hoka Bondi.

These are the most comfortable sneaker I have every worn. I’ve tried several Brooks models and they all vary in fit and comfort. These are , hands down, the best. Good looking, true to size, can wear all day.

These are the most comfortable tennis shoes I’ve ever owned. I work in the OR and I’m on my feet all day and these shoes have changed my life!

I really love these Ghost Max 2. I work in a reference lab where I stand up quite a bit and my lower back was hurting after my shift. I can truly tell the difference. I will be getting a second pair in the tnear future.

I originally ordered an 8.5 based on how other Brooks sneakers fit me, but those were a little too short. The 9 fit perfectly, though. I am looking forward to wearing these. They are very cushiony, which will be great since we walk our dog 4 times a day for an average of 5-6 miles.

Bought the 9.5 wide and it is perfect out of the box. Excellent support and not too cushy. Have found the Hoka Clifton 10's to be too cushy and difficult to walk in after a time. These are just right for me. Walked a few miles the first day with no back or knee pain. Would highly recommend! PLEASE make MORE Color choices in the wide width

Amazing! Has good stability and cushion. Wide enough toe box similar to New Balance. Feels great and I have bunions plus hammer time

I personally have the original ghost max & love them! I don't care for the fit in the ghost max 2 but my daughter thinks they're great. This is her 2nd pair of them & it's all she will wear. These are great for her & she really likes the black/dark gray & purple color - they look much better in person than online.

The fit and size are good but I noticed that the tongue is pointer than the Ghost 15 and it digs into my ankle. My ankles are very bony and maybe this won't happen to others.

I returned them as they were a platform, being a Max Ghost, and I was very unsure of myself as it put me too tall for good balance.

I like, and have been happy with Brooks shoes.

I have worn 'Ghosts' for years. The last few purchases were returned. They do not fit like they used to fit. I am not sure why but the last two pair (this one included) did not fit like my purchases several years ago.

Brooks have been my go to walking/running shoe for more than 15 years and after trying different styles over this time, Ghost are the best fit. I ordered a wide this time to give my toes more room to breath plus I also wear Bombas socks and they are a thicker sock. I prefer a true lace up shoe so I can easily adjust the tension. The additional support in the footbed has improved and with many foot issues, this is an ideal shoe for me.

Short in the toe area. Heel to toe drop is steep and pushed my toes forward with every step. Almost felt like I was rocking forward in these. I have been wearing Brooks running shoes for years (Ghost and Glycerin) and these shoes are not the same quality and design and that I expected from this brand.

LOVE these shoes! Took them out of the box and wore them daily to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure for 5 days. Constant walking and standing and my feet felt great! I love the extra padding in these and felt like I was walking on a cloud. I have worn Brooks shoes for years and this may be my favorite.
