If you want a thick soled walking shoe (I don't run anymore) that provides good cushioning but not overly spongey instability, and that doesn't awkwardly splay wide like a Hoka, this is a good one. I normally wear a 12 1/2 in Brooks (and most others) but based on other reviews I ordered a 13 and it fits great--Highly recommended.

Excellent Shoe. I dont run but am on my feet all day. I use my orthotics with these. They have a good amount of support, but I need more. For reference, I also have the Addiction which are awesome and have a lot of support, and I dont use my orthotics with the Addiction. The Ghost Max are great for me as an all day, move around, work, errands etc shoe. Love them!

Ive always worn ghost, tried the glycerins and they felt too wide. These are great, the same feel as ghost with more shock absorption. I also like the vintage look

I got these shoes for casual wear, walking shoes. I wear ghost when running and cascadia when hiking. Ive worn Brooks for the last 8 years - the cushioning and durability are superior to any brand.

My toes hit the front of the shoe when I walk. Should have ordered 1/2 size larger. External measurements are exactly the same as other 9.5 sneakers. Cushion and construction of shoe is very good. Probably will not order Brooks shoe again, true sizing is important when ordering shoes online.

For such a thick soled shoe, these are amazingly lightweight and don’t feel like I’m wearing an extra ten pounds on each foot. I always tend to buy white sneakers so this time I decided to go with a color and I’m glad I did. The minty green is just right without being too loud and flashy. They are REALLY comfortable and soft inside. Pricey? Yes. But with shoes you usually get what you pay for. I decided to pay for more to be more comfortable. So far I’m glad I did.

the shoes look great and would feel great, but - brooks' size 14 is not my 14...i am going to trade these for "their" 15 and see if that will solve it. btw: it is difficult to ascertain a true width and arch support.

Love the look of these. The blend of the mesh and suede comes together beautifully, and the color is subtle, but stylish. And they're comfortable above all else. I love them.

There are shoes then there is the Ghost Max SE. They are the most comfy shoes I have worn for work hands down.

These run very small for Brooks. Have always worn the same size and these dont come close to fitting. Would highly recommend trying them on somewhere.

I want to like these, but I'm still on the fence. I bought them as a walking / casual shoe to keep my running shoes (Glycerin GTS) strictly for running. They look good are very cushy. For a substantial sole and upper, they feel light. But they have an odd toe box that makes the shoe feel small despite having what appears to be the same length as my Glycerins. I can't quite decide if they will break in or are simply too small.

Pretty good. Very comfortable. I wish wide sizes were offered in this shoe. The 14 is comfortable but could be wider at the toes

These are great. My favorite pair of shoes Ive gotten in quite some time. I just use these for walking. I had been wearing Converse and Vans for casual wear forever, but I started getting plantar fasciitis, and the lack of support in those types of shoes was making that much worse. These have helped so much. Now my PF only really flares up when Im walking around barefoot a lot. Theyre really different from what I was used to wearing before when I wasnt exercising, but Ive gotten used to them. I think they look cool and get compliments on them.

These shoes are nice. I like the versatile look, you can dress them as athletic or athleisure. They have a roomy toe box but I would suggest sizing up if you are between sizes. I am normally a 13 and, based on reviews, I sized up to a 14 and Im glad I did; I think the 13s would be too tight. These offer enough room to slide my inserts and make them even more comfortable. The heel padding is very plush, it keeps your heel locked in place while providing some nice padding for longer walks. The shoes have some nice bounce to them. I am already planning to take them on my next vacation to Japan (plenty of walking planned).

They look great! I bought them for walking. Maybe they're different for running. But they make me unbalanced and my toe goes numb

I wear the shoes as a daily walker. Very good cushioning. I have a normal to wide foot with a higher arch, so the shoe is a bit snug. I usually buy the "regular" Ghost, but thought I'd give the Max SE a try. I bought my usual size (10.5 normal), but have found the 10.5 in the Max SE seems to be a little short. Downhill, my toes touch the end of the toe box. Next pair will be size 11.
