Brooks Ghost MAX 3 Men’s Running Shoes
The Brooks Ghost MAX 3 are neutral road running shoes designed for men who want extra underfoot protection without compromising a natural stride. They’re suited to steady road kilometres, longer weekend runs, and daily training where comfort and consistency matter on New Zealand roads and paths.
If you’re logging multiple sessions per week or tackling back-to-back runs, these shoes provide cushioning and support to help reduce fatigue and impact on legs and feet.
Smooth, Cushioned Performance
These shoes use a high stack of nitrogen-infused DNA Loft v3 cushioning. It provides a soft, responsive ride that absorbs impact over longer distances, keeping legs and feet feeling fresher even on extended runs or consecutive training days.
The GlideRoll Rocker sole works with a low offset to guide your foot naturally from heel strike to toe off. The result is a fluid, smooth stride that doesn’t feel forced, even when tackling tired legs or rolling over uneven road surfaces.
A wider base adds stability underfoot without changing the natural motion of a neutral runner. You get added confidence on hard or cracked surfaces, without compromising your running form.

The foot lands on the outside of the heel, then rolls inward to absorb the shock and support body weight.
Drop

The difference from the heel of the shoe to the forefoot.

Shoes with a higher heel drop tend to be preferred by runners that land heel-first.

Shoes with a lower heel drop are often favoured by forefoot or midfoot strikers.
