BrooksWomen’s Ghost Max Cushion Neutral Running & Walking Shoe

After 4 back surgeries and tons of new hardware, my doc finally cleared me to get back in the gym. I saw Jeremy Renner talk about these helping his recovery, so I tried them. They are wonderful!! They fit perfect to size, great support, no blisters, very light for packing. More importantly, my back doesn't hurt after an hour on the treadmill. Reminds me of getting new shoes when I was young and feeling like they made me run faster and jump higher.

Good quality, very light, great fit, very comfy and they look great. I get compliments all the time.

This has been the best shoe I have ever put on my feet. I have a bad foot on one side and bad knee on the other and these shoes make me feel like walking on air. They are gentle on joints. My feet and back hurt a lot less than with other shoes. These have also lasted a lot longer than other shoes. If you have wide feet, these are the shoes for you. There is so much room inside the shoe. Will definitely be buying another pair!!!

I buy a new pair of Brooks each year and these are my second purchase of this style because I loved them so much! The fit is true to size with great arch support. I am a nurse and wear these for long days standing. I love the all white color look, but they will get dirty easily. However, they do well in the washer on a gentle cycle. Great quality!

Unbelievable cushion. Make me want to RUN!I prefer regular ghosts for everyday wear, though. The regular ghosts are more nimble and have a better drop for plantar fasciitis. These are kinda like wearing giant pillows on your feet..I feel like I could stubble easier because I can’t feel the ground. If I were a runner I would probably really like them for the rest of my joints for running on pavement. But I’m just a walker. They’re pretty neat, but I probably won’t buy them again. I think I’ll stick with the regular Ghosts.

Ok ladies, here is an honest review of the Brooks Ghost Max Running & Walking Shoe. First let me give you some insight into me so you get a full picture of why I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE SHOES.I have Plantar Fasciitis in both heels, bad knees, and a bad back from my time in the Air Force. I have normal feet with normal arches, I have a full time,and a part job. My full time job is a desk job, I am a “chair princess” lol, I sit all day except when I CHOOSE to stand at my computer. :-) My part time job is at Food Lion a grocery store as a front end cashier lead and I stand for 7 to 8 hours without sitting down except for my lunch break Friday thru Sunday. I do an abundance of walking and standing during these three days I also do a lot of pushing and pulling to bring shopping carts inside.Until this weekend I have been wearing a pair of Skechers for the last year at the store and my feet have been hurting soooooo bad. So bad in fact that there have been nights that I have literally shuffled, hobbled really, into the house barely able to move because I was in so much pain. Desperate one day I asked my manager if her feet hurt at the end of the day and she looked at me and said “No”. So I asked her what shoes she was wearing and she said “These are Brooks”. I said Ok I will have to try them!Tonight was the end of the first weekend wearing my new Brooks Ghost Max Running & Walking Shoe and this is how I felt at the end of each night:Friday night a 6 hour shift - my heels were a little sore, but not like normal.Saturday night an 8 hour shift - my feet did NOT HURT, this was very unusual.Sunday night an 8 1/2 hour shift - my feet ABSOLUTELY DID NOT HURT, this was definitely UNEXPECTED!!!I wear a size 8 in all closed toe shoes and these are true to size.I will be honest I was skeptical when my manager told me that her feet don’t hurt, but I swear I believe her now! These shoes are amazing. The shoes came laced skipping the last eyelet. I wore the shoes laced that way Friday night they were a touch uncomfortable across the throat of the shoe. So when I put them on Saturday morning I left the last two eyelets unlaced and that made them fit perfectly. These shoes are even cute. Normally tennis shoes shoes are boxy and ugly to me…. BUT NOT THESE! Ladies, my feet feel great, my knees and my back do not even hurt. I did not even have to put inserts in these shoes which completely surprised me!Look ladies I normally despise tennis shoes/sneakers… I mean it all tennis shoes/sneakers period because they all always hurt my feet……….. BUT THEN……..I PUT ON MY FIRST PAIR OF BROOKS SHOES………. At $149.00 this is the most that I have ever paid for a pair of shoes but I promise you I do not regret it at all! You may not want to pay that much for a pair of shoes but I swear they are worth it. Have you heard the saying “You get what you pay for”? Pay the money I promise you will not regret it either. For me these shoes paid for themselves on the second night, they are worth every single penny I paid for them. I have already told a coworker about how amazing these shoes are and I will be telling all my coworkers about Brooks Shoes!I will be buying another pair for when I’m not working…. my work shoes are black so I would like another pair that are not black.Brooks I would like them in a pretty pink please! ;-)

The Ghost Max are phenomenally comfortable. These are bouncy, soft; for all day comfort. From heal to toe they transition perfectly. I have a pair of Ghost 15 but for me, anyway, they surpass even those. There is much less foot fatigue; it seems as if you can go twice as far without that hardened feeling underneath your foot. These are the most softest cushions I have ever put on footwise. Joint pain relief is definitely there, and for anyone with diabetes I recommend these. They do not scrunch your feet all while providing plenty of support. They feel good right out of the box. I've tried the Glycerine, the Ghost 15 and for me, anyway these are the most comfortable. For runners I am not sure, but for walkers and people who stand all day, I would say that these are the absolute best. The color options are great as well. Not boring in any way. I know they are coming out with a Max 2 but maybe I will try them sometime too but I'm actually completely satisfied with these. These are neutral, so if your prone to pronation etc they seem to work but that is more of a personal preference of what is best for any particular person and their decision. I just know that the transition from front to back is smooth and ultra cushioned making your stride easy, bouncy, without fatigue, and without that hardness feel underfoot. Standing all day in these would be a godsend. I wish I had these at Universal Studios, Seaworld, and Disneyland on my last trip. 5 stars from me.

Great fit and wear wonderfully! Size was great as well! They are holding up well - going on 4 months

excelente compra muy cómodos

The media could not be loaded. Son muy cómodos como son todos los de la marca pero no lucen de alta gamma como la mayoría de la marca

Stratosferica, si cammina per ore senza sentirsi mai stanchi ( almeno, non i piedi!!!) . Per le mie gite su sterrato ho acquistato le “sorelle “: Brooks caldera 6 .

Cosa dire su Brooks...? Sono assolutamente comode, come se io camminassi su nuvole.
