Brooks Ghost Max 4 Women's

Brooks Ghost Max 4 Women's review: what runners say

Fit

Wide fit in the forefoot, accommodates a range of foot shapes. Non-gusseted tongue flagged as a drawback by multiple sources.

Feel

Stable, predictable ride with consistent cushioning but no responsiveness. The DNA Loft v3 compound is not overly soft, making it viable for heavier runners.

Durability

Outsole nearly intact after 150 km; estimated lifespan of 700 km or more. Near-full rubber outsole coverage; wear concentrated at typical contact points is minimal.

Best for

Daily trainer for easy runs, recovery days, and long runs up to marathon distance. Suited to paces between 4:30 and 6:00/km; not intended for speed sessions or racing.

Weak points

No energy return: the shoe provides no propulsive response. Stated drop reported as lower than the actual drop by at least one source.
