Great Shoes For Daily Walks!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband needed a fresh new pair of walking shoes.I decided to get him Brooks Ghost Max 3’s as I thought he could wear them on his daily walks. For the last few weeks, my husband has been wearing his new pair of shoes every day. He likes the shoes design. It’s current and modern. He likes the shoes fit and feel. They are true-to-size and comfortable to wear. His favorite thing about the shoes is how well made they are. All the fabrics and materials are of high quality. His least favorite thing is how the shoes are not available in a variety of different colors. If given the opportunity, my husband would highly recommend Brooks Ghost Max 3’s. As he loves wearing his new pair of shoes on his daily walks.

Color Tone Is More Green Than Expected

These shoes are comfortable, and I love the overall design. However, the color in person is a bit different than what I expected from the photos. The “tea” or “khaki” tone shown online looks more like a neutral tan, but in real life it leans even more greenish or even olive almost like a muted chartreuse. It’s not a bad color, just not as versatile as I hoped. I originally bought them thinking they’d pair well with most of my tan, khaki, and charcoal outfits, but the green tint makes them a little trickier to match, especially if you can only get 1-2 pairs of nice shoes a year. Still keeping them because the gradient design is unique, just be aware that the color might show up differently in person depending on your wardrobe.

Absurdly comfortable, no fatigue!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These chunky cushioned Ghost Max 3s are a winner for my wide feet. I don't have experience with its predecessor but I can only imagine this was probably a step up. Wide toebox, comfortable mesh upper and the DNA Loft 3 midsole provided me with all day comfort. Fresh out of the box, I went out for a day on my feet, carting our son around an outdoor amusement park. Generally, with softer shoes, my legs feel some fatigue, but that wasn't the case with these! The padding around the heel was particularly cushy. Overall, I can't recommend these enough!

My feet say thank you 🙌

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had plantar fasciitis, and the Ghost Max shoes have made a huge difference. Since wearing them, I’m way less likely to get a flare-up and when it does happen, it’s shorter and way less painful. What I love: - Wide fit (finally something for my big, fat feet 😅) - Super comfy and supportive - Look sleek and cool not like “orthotic” shoes - The material is breathable, and hasn’t stretched or dirtied up over time - Solid! tons of outsole rubber and that wide base mean they hold up forever even after long walks! - They feel surprisingly lightweight. - The new Ghost Max 3 is a clear upgrade, smoother, better version of the already-great v2 Only tip: go true to size or slightly shorter not longer. I’ve got four pairs now. Safe to say I’m hooked!

Beware of the Ghost Max 3, it is a completely different shoe and not for the better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ghost Max 3 is very different than the previous version of the Ghost Max 2. Online reviews kept insisting that the two versions are largely the same, but I could not disagree more after trying out two pairs. Unfortunately, this version is not a solid shoe that hugs both my foot and the ground when running or power walking. It is not a solid shoe. It took me many tries with Brooks until I found the Ghost Max 2 to be the best fit for me with my custom orthotics. Now that the previous model is no longer available and this current version is a complete disappointment I will have to search other brands.

The BEST Shoe on the Market !!!!!!!! Super comfortable for walking or running Nice and roomy and breathable fabric Toe box room is perfect It’s hard to find a shoe where the toolbox has enough width for people that have feet problems like myself Brooks Just do me one more favor Please don’t come out with any other colors. I’m running out of money. :-) Thanks again for the perfect shoe

Great for recovery runs

I have been running in Brooks Ghost for a while but in the past 3 years I have had 3 knee injuries all requiring surgery. Recently I was able to run the “Tillman Clocktower 5K” just because of the Ghost Max 3! Amazing shoe that allowed me to finish 6 in my age group. Next year I’ll be able to train better (and more) due to this shoe. Hopefully I’ll be closer to the top!
