Brooks Women's Ghost Max 3 Sneaker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been wearing solely Ghost style Brookes since 2017, I’m 42 and over the past year have realized my feet just need a little more cushion for comfort. I just ordered my first pair of Ghost Max, they are the MOST COMFORTABLE pair of tennis shoes I’ve ever owned, my feet are thanking me! Only caution: be careful doing lunges or asymmetrical exercises I find it super easy to twist ankle with the extra cushion yet I highly recommend for casual and walking! Love these shoes! I also wish they came in brighter colors and darker soles! I will definitely invest in future shoes of Ghost max!

They’re HUGE. Feels like running in a marshmallow. I don’t understand these “Max” versions because they’re nothing like the original version of the shoe. I got a ripple under the bottom lace because I had to cinch them so tight to make them fit, and I got a crease on the toe of the shoe after ONE MILE. The length of my true size was fine, the sole felt awesome and plush, but the shoe fit horribly on the upper. I’ve never stopped and walked the remainder of my run because my shoes were irritating me so badly, that’s exactly what I did with these. Returned. Don’t reply to me Brooks, get your quality control in line. I should be able to order my size in a shoe and it fits me but everything is all over the place.

I have bad feet. Every metatarsal in both feet have been broken. My arches have dropped. And, let's not leave out the fallen arches or foot pain. I tried these on without much hope honestly. I thought they wouldn't be wide enough. Or, they would make my feet hurt. I was wrong. It felt like I was walking on a cloud! I bought them right then and there! My only complaint? That I didn't buy them sooner! I love them! Even after a few days, my feet felt great in them! I plan on buying another pair! I have arthritis in my knees and wearing these don't make my knees hurt! They have such great support! I understand why these are so popular!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Lymphedema, finding adequate shoes that have the necessary supports as well as can fit my foot is HUGE! I’ve been raving about the Ghost Max 3’s to all who will listen. I’ve spoken to my physical therapist as well who usually helps me “test” my shoes and this passed the test! I’m so excited to find a shoe brand I can constantly rely on and that provides the necessary support even without my braces. The only reason I’m not giving my full five stars is due to the lack of colorways. I would love to see more colors. Sometimes the color choices are a bit too vibrant for everyday wear versus gym attire. But otherwise I love this Brooks these are my third pair, and it’s safe to say I’m a brooks fan for life!

I almost never write reviews, but felt compelled to do so due to how much I dislike this shoe. I’ve worn ghosts for the past 10 years and this is by far the worst. It is nothing like the previous. For one thing they are way too high. I feel like I’m almost rolling my ankle just walking around in them. Another thing is you absolutely cannot slip them on due to the material and how the tongue lays which as my daily shoe I like to be able to slip my foot into without untying. The light color is getting dirty really quickly and I don’t even wear them outdoors mostly. They just don’t feel like the old ghosts and are not comfortable.

The Ghost Max 3 could have been THE perfect sneaker for me if it weren't for the rubbing on the outside of my right ankle, near the tongue. This sneaker checked ALL the boxes I needed.... GREAT toe box roominess, perfect arch support (not too extreme), cushioned sole that isn't too squishy. It literally solved every foot problem I have BUT it dug under the bone of the outside of my right ankle with every stride. I am not a fan of the tongue shape either. It is too narrow and not long enough; taking away from extra padding in that area. Oh well, back to the drawing board. Such a shame because I truly loved how this sneaker fit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a person that write reviews for sneakers because I have spent so much money for comfortable sneakers. I could not let Brooks know how happy my feet’s are. I am a Type 1 diabetic and suffer from severe diabetic neuropathy in my feet’s and hands. I am an everyday walker and there are days I am unable to walk due to pain. Since I have gotten my Brooks Max I haven’t missed one day of walking. I shared with my walking buddy that these sneakers make we want to walk longer and more. I have gotten so many compliments, even though I thought they were ugly because I’m use to the narrower look but guess what my feet’s are feeling blessed and I get a good walking workout. I literally feel like I am walking on air and when I finish my walk my feet have no pain whatsoever.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ghost max 3 sneakers are lightweight, comfortable and give lots of support whether you’re on a treadmill or taking them for a spin outdoors. I have a lot of issues finding shoes that support my feet, since they are slightly wider, but these were just the ticket. Long term, these shoes will definitely last, with one exception, they are white. If you are one that fears white shoes and keeping them clean, have no fear. The fabric was super easy to spot treat and doesn’t crease due to the light mesh material.
