Product Information
Full details
The Brooks Hyperion Max 4 is an advanced neutral road trainer designed for runners seeking a balance of high-speed performance and long-distance comfort. Featuring DNA FLASH v2 and DNA GOLD cushioning combined with a propulsive polyamide SpeedVault plate, it is an ideal choice for dedicated athletes focused on fast training sessions and endurance miles, though its aggressive 45mm stack height may feel less stable for those accustomed to minimal, ground-feel footwear.

FAQs
What is the drop of the Hyperion Max 4?
The Hyperion Max 4 features a 6mm heel-to-toe drop.
Are these shoes suitable for trails?
No, these are designed specifically for road running and provide optimal performance on paved surfaces.
Can I use these for marathon distances?
Yes, the combination of energy-returning foam and the propulsion plate makes them well-suited for long-distance endurance running.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes or using a washing machine.
Are these shoes for overpronation?
The Hyperion Max 4 is classified as a neutral trainer and does not provide specific stability features for overpronation.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from high-quality polyester mesh for improved breathability.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing pattern to a runner's loop or ensure the laces are tightened specifically over the midfoot arch.
Excessive dirt in mesh upper
Once dry, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the polyester mesh pores.
Feeling of instability
Ensure you are landing mid-foot and avoid sharp, quick turns that challenge the high-stack geometry of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, start by using the secure lacing system to achieve a locked-in, personalized fit that prevents heel slippage. The shoe is compatible with standard orthotics if necessary, though it is designed to work as a neutral trainer out of the box. To maintain your Brooks Hyperion Max 4, wipe the upper down with a damp cloth after runs in wet or muddy conditions to prevent dirt buildup in the mesh. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can degrade the midsole foam properties. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the structural integrity of the cushioning.
