Upgraded from my Ghost 13 to the Max. As a bigger guy, I was surprised by how the Max felt broken in right out of the box, and the great feel on my feet. The shoe has helped me regain my motivation to run through the northeast winter months
The Kinvara Pro are very stiff for a “daily trainer”. They are a fast shoe but that have a moderately aggressive roll to them in my opinion and after a few miles my feet start hurting because of the carbon plate. With the Ghost max, it’s pretty much max cushion with a slight roll technology in them. I feel like they are more comfortable than the Kinvara for daily trainers.
They are very similar regarding the higher stack, extra cushioning.. I believe the upper is better on the Ghost Max, it’s more breathable and foot conforming. Regarding the midsole foam, I do believe the DNA Loft V2 on the Max is more “squishy/comfy” than the More V4. The only thing that I think the NB More V4 is better in the heel counter. I wish The Max had the same as the More V4. I hope this is helpful.

That’s awesome Shaun! I totally agree with you….and I’m encouraged by your motivation. Thank you for the comment.
I love my NB supercomp trainers, but I am not disappointed this shoe. In fact, I’m impressed.
👏👏👏👍👍🤛🏼 I agree!
Such a roller coaster of not liking it, then liking, back to not feeling it, but the Cush bringing me back around
lol that sounds about right….the Cush is a game changer.
Hi I’m going tomorrow to try some on thank you 😊❤❤❤
I hope it worked out for you!
I love the look
Is it as cushioned as the New Balance Fresh Foam v4?
Yes. Lots of cushion
How would you compare it to the kinvara pro? These are the two I'm most interested in

Would a 6mm drop be a good or bad thing for someone who has supination?
I don’t think it would be a bad thing. The Ghost max have a very wide base and offer good support even thought it’s not a “support” shoe.
how do you rate this against the clifton 9? looking at getting one of these in a wide
Great question….
I have a video coming out soon comparing the 2.
I’ll let you know soon.

Thanks for the comment, I believe the Nimbus 25 is more comfortable than the Invincible 2.
