[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s very comfortable and it’s like walking on cloud. My orthopedics fit well in my shoes too.
I have difficult to fit feet due to quite thick custom orthotics and a bunion on 1 foot. I need a stable, neutral shoe with good cushioning to also mitigate knee pain. From the minute I tried these on they felt perfect. They’re the only current brand/style that is deep enough in the heel for my orthotics. The D width is wide enough and feels secure without being too tight. I don’t run but use them for everyday walking and light gym exercises and these have helped bring back the spring in my step. I love the black/rose gold colour and do plan on buying another pair. Please don’t stop making these shoes :-).
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely love my new Brooks Ghost 4 shoes! From the first time I put them on, they felt incredibly comfortable, with a snug yet roomy fit that supports my feet perfectly. The cushioning is outstanding, making every step feel soft, smooth, and effortless. Whether I’m walking for hours or out for a run, they provide excellent stability and support without feeling heavy. They’re lightweight, breathable, and beautifully made, so my feet stay comfortable all day. I also love the stylish design—they look just as good as they feel. These are easily some of the best shoes I’ve ever owned. Brooks has delivered another high-quality product, and I would highly recommend the Ghost 4 to anyone looking for exceptional comfort, durability, and performance. Worth every cent!
I am a support worker for Disabilities and Aged Industries and i love these runners. So comfy, well fitted and i can also use my custom Orthotics and still have plenty of room. the cushioning makes them feel like i am walking on clouds and the slight roll from back to front makes movement easy. Love them this is my third pair, last pair where leather and managed the wear and tear well. I have the fabric this time and need to weather proof as I already have a stain eeeeeek.
I purchased these a few weeks ago in an effort to reduce hip pain while walking, and these Ghost Max 4 are perfect! Excellent cushioned sole, curved sole to increase muscle stability, and the black/harlequin colour is fantastic. These are definitely my favourite shoes for daily use.
So happy with my new Ghost Max 4 - I have been waiting patiently for the new version since my conversion from Ghost shoes! Counting the days for another colour in D sizing to be released! I walk approximately 80klms a week and am in in 70’s. Only shoes I now wear!
I’m brought the Ghost Max 4 for running and support and they are the most comfortable shoes with excellent cushioning, less impact and have improved my running form. l’m wearing them daily, no problems with transition and love the design and colour choices
I love the wide fit for my orthotics. I feel I’m ‘floating on air’ with the cushioning and at the toe end, I can ‘push off’ easily making my transition from walking to jogging seamless. Love these trainers!
Great shoes for someone with plantar fasciitis. Ghost max 4 have an amazing cushioning, they provide sturdy stability and overall super comfortable shoe. Would highly recommend to anyone!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a glycerin wearer through and through and purchased these as an additional run pair for my longer runs. They have been excellent and long runs feel so much more comfortable.
