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.

This is the same shoe I've been in for a couple of years. Luckily, Brooks hasn't made any changes that I can tell. Shipping was very fast

Bye bye Glycerin
I’ve been wearing Brooks Glycerin since the beginning. This year I bought the new 22s but they killed my heels. No, they didn’t rub blisters but actually caused bone pain in the inner back part of the heel whether I was walking or hanging around the house. I felt sad and defeated so I asked for another suggestion and was told to try the Ghost Max 3. Oh so much better! They don’t hurt and feel nice and stable. I should probably go ahead and buy another pair now.
