Go to Travel shoes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are my go to airport and work travel shoes. Crazy comfortable and stable and supportive and perfect for long days on feet and on concrete...so nice I bought 3 different colors. Thanks Brooks! PS love the grey color. Goes with everything

Brooks doesn't know how to properly size their shoes
Ordered a half size up based on recommendations and they were still too small. Just size your shoes the same as every other company. Now I have to return these and order a brand new pair a whole size up from what I normally wear. Obnoxious. Also the shoe color is awful in person. Don't get the tan ones.

Mostly comfortable, but toe box is cramped.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ghost Max SE is a comfortable shoe. The cushioning feels good underfoot and feels stable for daily use. However, the toebox is noticeably small and feels restrictive. I’m currently undecided on whether I’m going to keep them or return them. If you prefer a roomier fit, these might not be the right choice. Also, just an FYI that these sneakers run small.

Seem to run a little small
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes were tighter on my feet than the Adrenalines I currently wear and my toes went nearly to the end of the shoe - no wiggle room or space at the front of the shoe. They also seemed stiffer but that could be just a break-in issue. The look nice, seemed well made and were a sturdy shoe. I like the Brooks shoe line but this one is not for me. The return was easy, the refund came quickly and the people are friendly and helpful. I will order another pair of Adrenalines. I am a walker, not a runner and wear these as an everyday shoe as well.

Greeny
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the all green look and comfortable, sizes seem to run small. So size up is my recommendation. Other than that highly recommend.

Best walking shoes I've ever owned
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ghost max se is a very comfortable shoe that helps me succeed on my my 5 to 10 mile walks. I have had foot pain issues from past injuries. I got these after having my last pair my wife bought me. After owning brooks I have not had pain in my feet. I will continue buying brooks walking shoes as they really do have the best support I have gotten in a shoe!
