Full details
The Brooks Ghost Max 3 is designed for adult runners and walkers seeking maximum cushioning and structural support during daily fitness activities. Featuring the innovative DNA LOFT v3 midsole and GlideRoll Rocker geometry, this shoe excels at providing soft landings and smooth heel-to-toe transitions. While the wide base offers excellent stability for various foot shapes, potential users should note that the high-stack profile may feel less responsive compared to lightweight racing flats.

FAQs
Is the Ghost Max 3 suitable for daily walking?
Yes, the high level of cushioning and stability make it an excellent choice for daily walking and standing for long periods.
What is the primary difference between the Ghost and Ghost Max series?
The Ghost Max series focuses on a higher stack height and rocker geometry for increased cushioning and smoother transitions compared to the standard Ghost.
How long should these trainers last?
Generally, running shoes like the Ghost Max 3 should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running style and surface conditions.
Does this shoe provide arch support?
The shoe features a neutral platform designed to work with your natural gait, though the wide base provides inherent stability for many foot types.
Can I remove the insole to use my own orthotics?
Yes, the stock sock liner is removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Feeling pressure on the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure points along the bridge of the foot.
Heel slippage while walking or running
Use the extra eyelet at the top of the shoe to create a 'runner's loop' or heel lock to secure the ankle more firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Ghost Max 3, ensure you have the correct fit by leaving about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. When the shoes become dirty, gently wipe the jacquard mesh upper with a soft cloth and mild soap; avoid using a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the cushioning materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct sunlight or heaters to preserve the integrity of the foam midsole.
