Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Hyperion Max 4 is a lightweight, high-stack trainer engineered for adult male runners seeking a blend of speed, responsive cushioning, and everyday durability. Utilizing advanced dual-foam technology and a nylon propulsion plate, it is ideal for runners aiming to improve turnover during fast-paced training sessions, though its specialized geometry may require a brief adjustment period for those accustomed to traditional flat-soled trainers.

FAQs
Is the Hyperion Max 4 suitable for recovery runs?
While the shoe is designed for speed and responsiveness, the high-stack cushioning provides enough comfort for recovery sessions, though it excels most during tempo efforts.
Does the nylon plate make the shoe too stiff?
The SpeedVault plate is designed to be subtle, providing propulsion without the extreme rigidity found in full carbon-plated racing shoes.
How long should these trainers last?
Depending on running surface and usage intensity, the DNA foam and durable outsole are designed to withstand high mileage, typically between 300-500 miles.
Can I use custom orthotics with this model?
Yes, the internal liner is removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required for additional support.
What is the primary benefit of the rocker geometry?
The RapidRoll Rocker geometry reduces the time your foot spends on the ground, facilitating a faster, more efficient transition from landing to toe-off.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability inside the shoe
Adjust the laces to utilize the gusseted tongue and ensure the midfoot lockdown is snug enough to prevent movement.
Excessive pressure on the top of the foot
Loosen the lacing over the tongue area and ensure the lofted comfort zones are aligned with your foot shape.
Material snagging or dirt buildup
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the jacquard knit upper after every run to prevent abrasive buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your Hyperion Max 4, verify that you have the correct size and lace them securely using the gusseted tongue to achieve a snug lockdown across the midfoot. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the performance foams and the nylon plate. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become wet inside, remove the liners and stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Always ensure the shoes are completely dry before your next training session to maintain the integrity of the materials.
