Feel great to run in, bouncy but firm enough to be supportive and very comfortable for 5-10 mile runs

Solid trainer

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Fits a little snug. Feels very bouncy. Have only used it for road runs so far, sure it would be fine for treadmill also. Very light, mesh on the top, so it’s nice for Texas heat. Just wish it came in more colors, mostly neutral. I don’t wear colors a lot, though I do like the orange/coral.

Pretty disappointing update to the hyperion max's. The 2s were my favorite shoes Brooks has ever made. Definitely see the vision but the cushion and upper were complete misses from me. Did 3 tempo runs and am returning them. Feet hurt, the energy return from the base was there but felt squirrely and put a lot of stress on my lower legs. For sure would get hurt if I continued to use them.

The reviews don’t give this shoe enough credit. Love it! Perfect balance of cushioning and stability. Highly recommend. Works well for flat feet also.

Best shoes ever made!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I got these for my husband. He is a PE Teacher and a runner. He goes through lots of shoes, and these are the most comfortable pair of shoes he has ever owned! They fit true to size. The upper feels great, snug but not tight. There is plenty of room in the toe box. The ride is very cushioned but you can also turn up the speed and go at a nice quick pace. Outstanding shoes! 10 out of 10

I tried these on and walked in the house for a minute. They are not true to size. I ordered a 13 and they were so tight they hurt. I returned them.

Great shoe

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Great shoe. Able to handle easy runs, recovery runs as well as pick up the pace in them. They are a little more stiff than I wanted, but still a very good shoe. Fit was true to size. Would recommend to runners of all levels.

Hyperion Max 3 Review

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Did my first run in these today in light rain. It was faster paced threshold run zone 4. Shoes worked out great and highly recommend them. These shoes felt comfortable at speed and fit very well. I would say traction is good and a great shoe for interval training and higher paced runs at least for me. They feel awkward at slower pace or just starting out the run working up. For my slower paced recovery and distance runs I will use the Glycerin 22s. For my 5k/10k shoes the Hyperion Elite 5. Overall great to have in a rotation for what your training for.

Hyperion Max 3 my favorite new runningshoe

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

As a very heavy beginning runner I absolutely love the Hyperion Max 3. They fit true to size for me, and I loved the snug sock-like fit that gave such a great heel lockdown for me. They felt stable, protective, and well cushioned without feeling too mushy at slow paces. At faster paces the nylon plate and rocker really made it come alive. I'm a VERY slow runner but first time I ran in these I broke every PB within my 4.5 mile run. Only negative thing I can say is that although I really liked the laces, I wish they were longer to accommodate the higher volume of my feet. One last thing, maybe it's because I'm heavier runner but they did not feel heavy to me as I've heard and read in many reviews, they felt just perfect.

Ehh, prefer the Max 2

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I have the Hyperion Max 1 and 2 and these were a big disappointment. I loved the firmness of #1 and the responsiveness and upper from #2. These Hyperion Max 3 totally missed the mark. They are way too cushiony, if that is a word, which causes knee pain from the instability. The upper isn't as good as #2. Please go back to the Hyperion max 2 formula. Amazing upper and a firmer bottom.

No medial support

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Have loved all the other Hyperion models but these missed the mark. They have no medial support which really put a lot of pressure on your first MTP. The cushion and stack height is just too much, I constantly feel like I’m going to sprain my ankle when running in them.

Great sole with rolling impact provides excellent cushioning and still stable will need second pair

Boston Qualified!

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

Love these shoes, perfect blend of comfort and speed. Comfortable to run a Marathon yet are fast enough for a Half PR or 5K. The cushion and the stack are perfect. Versatility meets function, homerun for Brooks.

Premium super trainer

Excellent long run shoes for me. Just helps me keep going for those 10+ miles and kept my legs fresh. Fit feels like a race day shoe and locks down my feet without any hotspots.

Narrow. Too high of a stack. Tight toe box. Please go back to the original hyperion max style.

My pair took a little bit of breaking in to get going in them...maybe 3-4 runs of 6-7 miles each. But they seem to be fitting and riding a lot better than the first couple of runs now.

Alot to like

Hyperion Max 3 feels great on my feet. There is plenty of cushion and good energy return. The shoe feels softer and heavier than the Hyperion Max 2. That being said it is very comfortable to run in at fast and slow paces.

Great shoe. Runs true to size, and is my go to. Feels solid underfoot, and get’s up and goes when you need it to. I’m 6’5, 212lbs, and wear a size 14.

Best Brooks Running Shoe

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

I'm a runner. Have tried many shoes, but always come back to Brooks. I read a review about the Hyperion Max 3 - have been using Ghost Max 2. The Hyperion Max 3 are a game changer for me. The cushioning is the best I have had with any Brooks running shoe I've used. The design helps me to have a better stride. I can run 8 - 10 miles and my feet are not sore afterwards. I've always liked my past Brooks shoes. But the Hyperion Max 3, by far, is the best shoe I have had.

8/10 but still better than the competition !

Originally posted on brooksrunning.com

These are not my first brooks and they won’t be my last!I will start off by saying the Shoe runs narrow and snug for me and I had to send back the first pair and go 1/2 size bigger . (I got the first blister ever on my heel running after 17 yrs.) I do have slightly wider feet but My previous pair of Hyperion max 2 was a Perfect fit in the toe box , overall width and length .(I also miss the comfortable tongue plus the lock down from saw tooth laces ) Now for the good stuff ! Love the energy return underfoot even for slower easy runs and picking up the pace the shoe responds very nicely .Feet definitely feel fresher after longer runs of 10+miles AND the next day . I don’t mind the higher stack (if you are running in relatively straighter lines) …but don’t expect to take tight turns at faster paces , the lack of lateral stability will definitely be noticeable. I’ll be using as daily trainers . More colors please !
