Brooks Ghost Max 3
Features
Discover what comfort feels like in the Brooks Ghost Max 3.
Designed for runners and walkers who want every step to feel supported, the Ghost Max 3 delivers maximum cushioning without compromising the smooth, natural transitions that make long miles feel effortless. This isn't just about more foam—it's about smarter cushioning that works with your body's natural movement. With nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 foam and GlideRoll Rocker technology, the Ghost Max 3 helps reduce underfoot pressure while actively assisting your heel-to-toe transitions, so you can focus on enjoying your run instead of counting down the miles.
Details:
- Upper: New high-fidelity textile delivers a soft, premium feel that wraps your foot in comfort from the first step to the last. The design balances breathability with the protective support you need for longer efforts.
- Midsole: A high stack of nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 cushioning provides maximum protection without the weight penalty. The low 6 mm offset works with GlideRoll Rocker technology to create smooth, assisted transitions that make every step feel effortless.
- Outsole: A broad base delivers inherent stability that supports neutral runners without interfering with your natural stride. Strategic design promotes smooth heel-to-toe transitions whether you're running or walking.

Brooks tennis shoes
My husband was having trouble with his feet. The Brooks shoes have really helped. In fact, even the podiatrist was happy to see he was wearing Brooks shoes.

Great comfort and fit
I have wide feet and it is difficult to get both plush comfort and a wide toe box all in one shoe. These were perfect. If they were available in colors other than black and gray (I have both), I'd buy more!
