Brooks

Ghost Max 2 Running Shoe - Men's

I'm a nurse. I am also cheap. I always went with on sale Sketchers and Asics, which I always thought are great shoes. I won't say they are bad shoes, but I ponied up and paid a little more for a pair of brooks. I chose brooks over Hoka because the extra wide were available because I have wide duck feet. This pair of Brooks really is amazing. It's almost weird how soft and comfortable they are. Going down stairs especially, the cushion is far better than any pair of shoes I've worn. If you're on your feet a lot, these shoes are great!

Very very good!

These are fantastic running shoes. They are the perfect fit comfortable and had no issues while road running in them. Previously I wore Ghost 14/15 and there was always some little ache or pain in my feet or legs, But not with these. The cushioning is deep and provides good support and I am sure this has helped reduce injuries and minor niggles to the point I have not had any since I made the swap several months ago. (Fingers crossed) Now on my second pair. I now use these as my go to road shoes for short/medium distance tempo/speed runs, as well as slow long runs up to half marathons. Only slight niggle is the grip. If its wet road conditions or even frosty or icy I have had to be careful as I have lost grip going up and downhill. But other than that brilliant! Wish Brooks would make a trail running version with better protection and grip. I can dream!

For both Morton’s neuroma and plantar fasciitis this Ghost Max 2 has helped so much! Please don’t change this shoe or discontinue like so many others. Thank you!

Amazing support and shoe overalk

Very comfortable for road running. Very soft and easy on the heel and toes.

I started a new job walking 10k steps a day and needed new shoes asap. After a small break-in period, they are super comfortable and very durable. I’m walking on mostly concrete outside, but no issues walking on other surfaces. Would highly recommend these for walking, haven’t run much though.

more of a walking shoe

very comfortable to wear around and stand for jobs that require longs hours on your foot, for running i noticed my pace was slower and it was harder to pick it up.

A near perfect running shoe. WILL BUY AGAIN.

These are near perfect right out of the box. Very little break in needed. They are very cushioning and absorb impacts of running well. I am on my second pair and will be getting a 3rd as long as they keep this model and or build. My only ONLY complaint about the design of the shoe is I wish there was a version of this shoe that had trail running bottom layer for the traction when running off road. That would give this platform a more rounded area to use them. I runn just to the side of the road and if the grass is wet it can get slippery. My grip about them is the color palette seems poorly done. But I am very glad they come in all black as those I can wear at work. I would just like some plain colors for my running, Im not a flashy guy.

Best shoe I’ve ever worn

Good News/ Bad News

Good News/Bad News The Ghost Max 2 is an amazing shoe and the weight is feather like and the comfort is exceptional. So what's the downside? If you need a wide shoe size then you are restricted to White only. Some seriously nice color options exist like London Fog or Baltic Blue however not in a wide size. My podiatrist recommended these and that endorsement is shared by me. Just vanilla seems a bit sour.

Could ya make a wide/xtra wide in any other color than all black, please??? I had the original Ghost Max in xtra wide (black, blue, white) and loved them.
