  • Perfect Balance of Cushioning, Stability & Roomy Fit for Long Walks
Size: 7 Color: Blue/Sylvan Green/Clearwater
I'm 5'2" and 114 lbs. I ordered a size 7 (regular width). After trying several popular walking shoes, this one was the clear winner for me. It has the perfect balance of cushioning and stability. The foam feels soft without being overly bouncy, so I feel very stable while walking. The toe box is roomy enough for my feet, which is important because I have a tailor's bunion and need extra space around my toes. I can tell this shoe will be comfortable for long sightseeing trips with 10,000+ steps a day. If you're looking for a supportive, stable, and comfortable walking shoe, I highly recommend giving the Ghost Max a try. ... show more

  • Immediate Buy… and Buy a Second Pair
After spending years suffering with ankle foot knee calve leg pain I was suggested to get a pair of these. While it didn’t 100% solve the problems (was injured 2 years ago) I can walk again without feeling in agony. I liked them immediately and bought a second pair. They seem durable and fit well true to size standards in America. I purchased Wide shoes I have wide feet. Material feels sturdy and shoe is flexible enough for comfortable wear. The material is also breathable. Purchased in black look great. I am also purchasing in the beige colour as well. I can not wait to gain my mobility back with the help of these shoes! ... show more

  • Best Overall XX Wide Shoe for Women!
Size: 7.5 X-Wide Color: Coconut/Chateau Grey/Blue
I've been struggling most of my life to find shoes that are wide enough to not cause any major discomfort or pain in my feet, and the Ghost Max 3 is BY FAR the best shoe I've found. I've tried Skechers, New Balance, and Altras, to name a few brands you may be familiar with. I still long for the goga mat insoles of skechers, but at some point their shoes became narrower and narrower over time. It came to a point where going up 2 or 3 sizes still wasn't enough to get the width or height I needed for my "high volume" foot. I stuck with New Balance for a while because it was more widely available to try on in stores etc. But eventually they phased out some of the wider models that fit me too, and had meager offerings for any true XX Wide shoes for Women. Then I tried Altras. I LOVE the toe box on Altras, but as many others call out in their reviews--the midfoot area is often too tight. I also felt that Altras seem to target very active folks, so a lot of their shoes are designed for specific needs like cross training or hiking rather than everyday use or walking. I would still totally recommend Altras to any wide feet friends who are targeting those needs, OR who want a low drop/zero drop shoe with less cushioning. Personally however, the Brooks Ghost Max 3 (and hopefully future models of this shoe line) will continue to be my holy grail. My BIGGEST COMPLAINT is that there are only 2 color options (that I've seen on Amazon and the Brooks home website) for the XX Wide version of this shoe for Women. They are also not my top picks of the colors they offer for the regular width, and I have seen others say the same. ADDITIONALLY, the Ghost Max 4 is now available for pre-order and still continues this trend. In fact, the colors available of the 4 are so horrid that I'm contemplating getting another pair of Ghost Max 3's to hold me over until the next generation. If Brooks truly needs to cut costs by offering only 2 or 3 color options for XX Wide models, I feel like it would be better to keep options simple and flexible. Rather than some slightly funky option and an all black shoe (which often gets called out as ugly because they look like food service shoes), I think a better solution would be... 1. All White 2. Black Upper, White Sole 3. All Black (Or their most popular color ordered in regular widths based on pre-order, released at a slightly delayed timeframe). I would knock off a star for color options on the XX Wide widths, if it weren't for being afraid that these shoes might disappear completely lol. I would rather have a shoe that actually fits and is comfortable than looks pretty, so I guess it is what it is. As a side note, one other thing that might be worth mentioning is that I think the base model of this shoe is fantastic, but could possibly be upgraded based on your personal needs with an insole that targets whatever your specific needs are. I tried out an insole that I bought for my previous pair of shoes (recommended to me based on a professional fitting at a shoe store) and it felt like an entirely different shoe. So, you never know what could be worth trying! TLDR; best overall XX Wide fit Women's shoe I've ever tried! Sad about color options, but happy with comfort. ... show more

  • Great Recovery Shoe
Size: 7.5 Color: Black/Black/Rose Gold
I purchased these shoes after a tibial plateau fracture and torn meniscus. I needed something that would help me correct my step, take some of the pressure off of my knee, and absorb the impact of walking. So far, I am highly impressed. I absolutely love the wide toe box and the level feel of the shoe. They are very solid, well-built, and lightweight. I have only worn them for three days, and so far am enjoying them. My feet aren't aching at the end of the day, and I have noticed they really are helping in the recovery from my injury. They are very stylish, and I have worn them with several outfits; I purposely chose the black color to keep stains from showing. I gave four stars for the sole purpose that I would like to see maybe a tad bit more arch support. ... show more

  • Old ones are way better but look similar
Size: 8.5 X-Wide Color: Black/Black/Ebony
These are ok, and not too bad, but I prefer the Ghost Max 2 way better. I bought t hese because I really liked the Ghost Max 2 shoes I got last year. I thought that I would get a new pair, but they were no longer available as they are discontinued, however these Ghost Max 3s were the updated model. I thought i would get them because they were just the newer version, but after wearing them I quickly noticed that these aren't nearly as comfortable, so I just went back to wearing my older version, because they are just nicer and far superior in every way. It appears Brooks wanted to increase their margins, and unfortunately I was one of the guinea pigs. Im not happy with these shoes over my older ones, these are a lot like my cheaper adidas and if I knew about the changes, I would have just spent 1/3 as much and purchased adidas or new balance, or even under armor, as they are all very comparable and i have tried and own them all. ... show more

  • best sneakers of my life!
Size: 10 Color: Harbor Mist/Poppy Seed/Pink
I now understand why these are rated #1 best selling sneakers. I've been a life long runner and I am old, and my regret is that I haven't found this particular style sooner. I started wearing Brooks about 6 years ago, and the first two styles were super, but this style is phenomenal. The comfort is off the charts. The support at the base of my heel is what does the trick, and makes running, walking, rucking, hiking (all the things) feel SO! MUCH! BETTER! Give them a try, I doubt you'll be disappointed. ... show more

  • Very comfortable and supportive
These are the most comfortable sneakers I have ever owned, I do a lot of walking and have been noticing that the current shoes I have (Skechers) are too pointy in the toe area and I get toe trauma from wearing them on long walks. I like the Brooks because they have a wider toe area. I highly recommend these, I wish I bought them sooner. ... show more
