Comfy, lot's of cushion, but narrow!
2 days ago
I purchased the new Ghost Max 3 and so far they are wonderful! I had to go with a wider (2EE) shoe as the regular D width was much too narrow. I didn't have to go with 2EE in the Adrenaline 22, 23, or the Glycerin 21 shoes but the Ghost Max 3 were much more narrow than the shoes I had been wearing. The 2EE in a 9.5 was very comfortable with lots plush cushioning. I use them for the cross-trainer, treadmill at the gym and just walking around during the day. If you don't want a lot of cushioning then these aren't for you, but then they don't call Ghost Max 3 for nothing!

Great Shoes For Daily Walks!
2 months ago
[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
3 weeks ago
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!
2 months ago
[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!
Yes , I recommend this product

Great Fitting Shoe
2 days ago
Wow. The shoemfor my feet;;;;; First shoe I ever got frombrooks that feels comfortable without multiple shoe modifications that I havenhad to make for my multiplr problems. The Ghost 17 has greatcushuining but the top did not fit my foot problems without modifying yhe top of the shoe to allow the right movement. I still knew the shoe was causing my bunion to know it was there. The AdrenalineGTS 24 fit the top of my foot because of the medial structure of the shoe that allowed the top of my foot to be comfortable but was too stiff. Then I saw the Ghost Max 3 that had a similar top of the shoe to the Adrenaline but much better with a soft top. and less side support Put my insole(Powerstep Wide) and elastic laces and have been smiling ever since as it actually fits and allows ankle and foot motion. I can move again!!! Thanks to the designers to fit my needs without my own modifications which is why normally I need to buya shoe and modify it to allow me to move This shoe feels great and allows my kinetic chainto work right. Lst night onmy Concept 2 rower I was faster than I had been for a long time.

Great for recovery runs
1 week ago
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!

Good but not durable
6 days ago
Good shoe. As far as comfort and stability go it’s great. Problem with this shoe is the toe has no protection. It’s just fabric that gets ridiculously dirty quick and the front tip rubber is already tore up after less than a month’s use. Weak. Make sure not to purchase the grey ones for running only the black!

Super comfortable and great stability
1 week ago
For the last month I have tried and returned hokas and on clouds , after they all managed to hurt my feet and not provide enough stability for my pronation. I tried these on in the store and instantly knew they were the one. I am an avid walker and am on my feet all day. I do a mixed variety of street and lots of trail walking. These have so much support and stability that it makes walking on any terrain easy. I absolutely love the material of the tongue, laces, upper and midsole. I personally found that the more I wear these the comfier they get. I actually found myself forgetting to take them on when I get home because they are so comfortable. I got them in primer grey ( best color imo ) and when I find something in life that works best for me I always get another pair of that, so I returned my on clouds I recently got and got another pair of Ghost Max 3’s in the all black. I also think these are aesthetically pleasing. 5/5 !!
