The Brooks Ghost Max 3 is the successor to the Brooks Ghost Max 2, and the series seems to be softening with age. The Ghost Max 3 maintains a similar stack height and geometry, but the midsole is noticeably softer than in the Ghost Max 2. The upper has also been updated, and the mesh in the third version is slightly more breathable than in the second. Overall, the Ghost Max 3 feels more comfortable but less responsive than the Ghost Max 2.
We buy and test running shoes with a very data-oriented approach. While we're just getting started, our methodology already has dozens of tests to help you make the right purchasing decision for your needs. Not only do we use high-end equipment to gather objective data, but we also order multiple sizes of the same shoes so team members can log in miles. This real-world testing is conducted at various paces and conditions, across different types of workouts, to cover all the bases. This allows us to verify our results and ensure they align with what you might feel with a specific pair.
