Would buy again!

A great shoe....very comfortable and built right! It feels soft when walking/running. Love the cushion. I would buy another pair especially if they would offer the wide 2E width in more colors. I have bought three pair of them and wuld buy another if they had more colors in the wider widths.

Very comfortable

Finally, my feet don’t hurt! I purchased wide as I developed bunionettes and these sneakers afford me plenty of room. Plenty of cushioning ,although I do use walk fit arch supports as well.

Cushion

Love the fit and the cushion. I have sensitive toes so the wider box helps a lot. They are great for walking too, lots of bounce. This is my favorite so far.

Going the Mile but not Rinning it

This the 1st pair of Brooks i have ever bought. I don't run but I'm on my feet some days from 5 in the morning making bagels or 830 in the morning on the sales floor. I'm super happy with them! My feet don't hurt and I can go the mile. ;)

So comfortable!

So comfortable, especially when you need to be on your feet all day long. Actually like this version better than the first iteration of the Ghost Max. Compared to the first model, this one is a little stiffer, but has great rebound, which works better for running. The first Ghost Max was excellent for walking, but it felt a little too soft/clunky for running. This shoe works great for both!

Good quality running shoe

Helped my knee pain/shin splints. I don’t have a wide foot but shoe was a bit narrow and small.

Purchased these last November. They've almost.made it to May with daily miles on pavement. They're a bit clunky, but the support is excellent and I believe the bulk makes them a bit more durable than the regular Ghost. With the cost of running shoes these days, that matters to me. I should be able to get through a full year with just 2 pairs of these. I'm a 6 in non-athletic shoes, 6.5 in these and most running shoes.
