The Brooks Ghost Max 2 Shoes Are on Sale at Amazon

I walk approximately 10 miles a week. It’s the only form of cardio I can consistently do, and the only version that feels good for my body, given my chronic inflammation. Since I am sensitive to pain, I gravitate toward cushy, cloud-like sneakers for my walks because they help soften the impact of my steps. The first high cushion shoe I ever fell in love with was the Brooks Ghost Max. The original iteration of this now arguably coveted shoe, I ranted and raved so much that my sister ended up getting a pair of her own.
One year later, she sent me a text saying she already bought the second model—the Ghost Max 2—before I even knew the brand had launched it. As a physical therapist, she is on her feet for 8 to 10-hour shifts every single day, moving, lifting and working with rehabilitation patients. That was confirmation enough that these Ghost Max sneakers were something special. With the rare discount, they’re even more valuable if you ask me.

As the name suggests, these running shoes were designed for the maximum amount of cushion. They’re part of the classic Ghost line, so they maintain the same level of neutral support and a lightweight upper as their predecessors were known for.
When the brand launched the first Ghost Max, I couldn’t believe how airy yet plush the shoes felt. The cushion was slightly less durable than the brand’s stiffer shoes, but the Ghost Max 2’s base got an upgrade. They’re just as comfortable as the first pair, but the midsole includes a material that’s designed to be more protective —music to my ears, if you ask me.
The Ghost Max 2 shoes have a very smooth rocker, so your foot transitions easily from heel to toe with little effort and resistance. The base at the heel also extends around the edges, providing additional stability to keep your gait in check.
Made for road running, these shoes have quickly become a popular choice for walking, errands or work. “I am up and down for 12-hour shifts, and my feet are never sore with these shoes. They are extremely comfortable and provide wonderful support,” wrote one Amazon reviewer. There are upwards of 2,000 more five-star ratings, many of which have written reviews with similar callouts. “I have purchased this item in multiple colors and it is my favorite sneaker for walking, running, and standing for long periods of time at work,” said a second person. Another happy customer said these are the “best walking shoes ever, and I’ve tried them all!”
There’s never been a better time than now to try these crowd-pleasing Brooks shoes. Grab the Ghost Max 2 in a variety of colors and sizes for $110.
