Product Information

Full details

The Brooks Ghost Max 3 is designed for adult runners who prioritize a soft, protective underfoot feel during their daily road runs. Its high-stack cushioning and rocker-shaped geometry work in tandem to provide smooth transitions from landing to toe-off while offering a broad base for added stability. While it is an excellent choice for neutral support and shock absorption, the shoe's significant cushioning stack and 313g weight may feel bulkier to runners who prefer a lightweight, responsive ground-feel.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the Ghost Max 3 suitable for speed work?

No, it is designed for comfort and daily road training rather than fast-paced track or tempo work due to its weight and cushioning profile.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 313g, reflecting its protective, high-stack construction.

What is the midsole drop?

The Ghost Max 3 features a 6mm midsole drop.

Does this shoe provide stability?

Yes, it is designed with a broad base that offers neutral support and enhanced stability for a wide range of runners.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the foam cushioning and the structural integrity of the shoe materials.

Troubleshooting

Feeling instability on uneven terrain

The shoe is specifically engineered for road use. Stick to paved surfaces to ensure the broad base provides the intended stability.

Difficulty achieving a secure lockdown

Experiment with alternative lacing techniques, such as the runner's loop (heel lock), to improve fit around the ankle collar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brooks Ghost Max 3, it is recommended to allow the midsole foam to recover for 24 hours between runs. For sizing, the shoe adheres to standard UK adult sizing, ensuring a predictable fit across the Ghost Max series. Keep the exterior clean by wiping the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the adhesive and foam cushioning. Always air-dry in a cool, shaded place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
