Men's Brooks Ghost Max 4

The Ghost Max 4 is the most cushioned Ghost Brooks makes and the one we recommend to walkers, big-mileage easy runners, and anyone on their feet all day. The 40 mm heel of nitrogen-injected DNA LOFT v3 sits on a wide platform that resists tipping, so you get stability without a support shoe. The GlideRoll rocker rolls you forward smoothly and spares the calves and Achilles. Brooks trimmed about 6 percent of the weight from the Max 3, softened the heel counter, added padding to the upper, and rebuilt the outsole with more rubber and flex grooves for wet grip. Available in medium, wide, and extra wide.
