This new system gives it a rigid midsole to give greater efficiency to the step from the beginning to the takeoff.

Another option that the brand gives us is that the combination of its technologies in the midsole can benefit runners with plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia and Morton's neuroma.

As for the sensations of these Brooks Ghost MaxAlthough it is a shoe with premium cushioning, its feel is not entirely soft, and it provides a balance between softness and firmness. The foam does not have a great travel in its footprint and this gives it more dynamism than if it were a softer touch. We will notice that it is difficult to flex the shoe, and this is something that the brand seeks, as we have said before, due to its GlideRoll Rocker system What it seeks is for our ankle joint and metatarsals to work less, saving energy and being more efficient.

And finally, we will notice that sensation of ground and a lot of base in contact due to that wide last that the brand has included to counteract that high midsole height that could make it somewhat unstable. We can say that they achieved it, and stability is a strong point of this model.
