Customer Reviews Brooks Ghost Max 2

I liked the look but they do run small. I tried wearing for 30 days but never felt right. I will return and get the next size up in another shoe. They look a bit bulky.

It's a good shoe for longer runs, very supportive and very comfortable. Anything 5 miles and up this is my go to shoe. But it really lacks when doing intervals or tempo runs, it's just so heavy that it almost feels like it gets In the way. Honestly wish I stuck with the adrenaline gts

Fits good and comfy but the left shoe is crinkling by the big toe and spreading after 1 week! I work indoors mostly and walk 3-4 miles a day at work. should not be crumbling this much already after paying as much for these shoes. I would not recommend these shoes!

the toe box is to tight more room in my old ghost 16 and my new glycerin. Will return and get ghost 17.

The shoes fit well and are comfortable for sitting. When I stand or walk, the spongy sole gives to much and my feet tilt side to side. After three miles, it created a lot of pain.

I ordered my typical size from Skechers, 9 1/2 Wide. Recently I purchased 3 different high end Skechers, each fit perfectly. The Brooks Max 2 were way too small ordering the 9 1/2 Wide. I returned them after trying to wear them around the house multiple times. VERY DISAPOINTED!!! I was looking forward to this shoe with Max Cushioning!

I'm flat footed that wears a 8.5 extra wide. This gave me knee pains. I usually wear Bondi 8's from Hoka and this felt less comfortable for standing and walking.

I have no idea why Brooks always changes sizing/ fit on its celebrated models. IE Ghost 16 fits nothing like Ghost 15. It makes zero sense and customers consistently complain about it on your site. Consistency is a huge factor for quality control and consistency. People just turn around and but other brands out of frustration. Time to listen to all these surveys and stop wasting your customers time and producing in consistency.

I ended up returning these shoes. I have the ghost max 1 and love them. I thought the GM1 were a little too squishy, so liked the direction towards a slightly firmer sole. Unfortunately the shape of the shoe also changed; the width and toe box width, etc. and the shoe became a lot less comfortable.

It's ok in the beginning then after 1 hour my feet start hurting and I found out the shoe is short not true size and my big toe hurt so much so I decided not to wear it and purchase on cloud runner 2 way better from brooks

I bought the ghost thinking that it might be as comfortable and a supportive as the adrenaline. After wearing it for a couple of weeks I find that it is not as comfortable and as good as the adrenaline so I returned it and I got a new pair of adrenaline Which I'm very happy with

Wanted to like these, but the sock liner is too narrow and doesn't fill the bottom of the shoe. I have tailor's bunions and the outside of my feet were hurting badly after wearing these a few hours. Oddly, the original Ghost Max shoes are fine for me.

This is my 3rd pair of Ghost Max 2 shoes because I am 78 and walk 4 miles a day. The cushion is awesome. However, the material used for the top of the shoe is like tissue paper and my big toe (yes, they are the right size) tears a hole almost immediately in the top. I have all 3 pairs to show if your interested. Also, the bottom of my first pair the bottom cushion came off the shoe. Poorly constructed. Really too bad because I love the cushion.

I've been a fan of the Adrenalin for a few years now. I made the switch to the Ghost because of they were in sale. These two shoes are entirely different. The ghost fits strange under the foot and is terribly uncomfortable. Every foot is different, but this shoe does not work for me.

I bought the GM-2 with the hope that this is a perfect shoe for me. Turn pout that on my second day wearing caused severe pain in my heals and knee. I decided to return the shoe right away. I love the fitness of the shoe but the comfort level was not all that good.

It was recommended as a possible substitute for the Glycerin 22. There is no comparison. I found the Glycerin 22 to be the best choice for cushioning and for me.

First pair of Brooks. The padding was okay and they're fairly comfortable, but they're HEAVY!! Felt like I was wearing cinder blocks after the first mile. Definitely going back to Hokas

Too much support for a neutral shoe that I usually get with a ghost product.

Have original Ghost Max and they are great, especially for heel spurs. Soft cushion, Plus enough space in toe box. Got the Ghost Max 2 and it's firmer, less roomy than the original Ghost Max. It's been a couple of weeks and figured they will get softer after a few days but seems like Brooks have tinkered with something that was great and made it average.

Much too soft and unstable.
