Features
Step up your run with the Brooks Ghost Max 2. Designed for unparalleled comfort and smooth transitions, this max-cushioned trainer is the elevated version of the fan-favorite Brook Ghost.
A DNA Loft v3 midsole delivers plush support perfect for long runs or everyday training, while the GlideRoll Rocker system gives you effortless strides.
“These are just the ticket for some easy miles. The fat stack of DNA Loft v3 foam strikes a really nice balance of soft and firm, something I’ve been looking for in a long run shoe,” says Max during our Brooks Ghost Max 2 review.
Details:
- Upper: The breathable, double-layer upper gives you a secure and comfortable fit. A unique Linear Last construction adds more volume to the shoe for a comfortable fit inclusive of foot shapes and orthotics.
- Midsole: The DNA Loft v3 nitrogen-infused midsole foam and GlideRoll Rocker system make all the difference during longer runs. It balances plush landings and responsive toe-offs perfectly, while sidewalls cradle your foot for extra stability.
- Outsole: A wide base with good rubber coverage gives this shoe a smooth and durable ride.

The Brooks Ghost Max 2 has a new nitrogen-infused DNA LOFT v3 midsole for a soft and smooth ride. The upper was improved with a double-layer mesh that adds some weight but boosts comfort for the perfect fit.
Who It’s Best For
“Thanks to a thick stack of DNA Loft v3 cushioning, the Brooks Ghost Max 2 is a stellar choice for runners who thrive in a moderately soft shoe with a balanced ride. If you like high-stack shoes without the squishy feeling, the Ghost Max 2 is for you,” says Caroline in our Ghost Max 2 review.
It can accommodate a wide variety of foot shapes and is a great choice for anyone who prioritizes comfort and protection over all-out speed.
