Brooks Men's Hyperion Max 3 Running Shoes

About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    "I’ve run in a lot of shoes over the years, but the Hyperion Max has quickly become one of my favorites—and honestly, it just fits the way I like to run. What I love most is how fast this shoe feels. The moment you pick up the pace, it really comes alive. It’s lightweight, responsive, and has that forward roll that just keeps you moving. It’s not one of those overly soft, sink-in shoes—it’s more of a firm, snappy ride, which I personally prefer because it feels efficient and race-ready. The cushioning is a sweet spot for me. There’s enough there to handle longer runs without beating up your legs, but it never feels heavy or sluggish. It’s the kind of shoe that makes you want to push the pace a little more than you planned. That said, it’s not perfect—and I get why some people might not love it. The fit runs a bit narrow, and it’s definitely built for neutral runners. Also, this isn’t the shoe I reach for on easy, slow days—it really shines when you’re moving with purpose. Bottom line: This is my go-to when I want to feel quick, efficient, and locked in. The Hyperion Max isn’t trying to be everything—and that’s exactly why it works so well. It knows what it is: a fast, no-nonsense training shoe that delivers when it matters." - Peter, DM at DICK'S Sporting Goods Miami and Orlando

Great Running Shoe

I bought these shoes a few weeks ago and they are very comfortable. I love the feel of them with plenty of support.

Hyperion Max 3

These are great shoes. Honestly my favorites part of the shoes are the laces. They does not twist up easily.

Great To Start, Didn't Last Long, Unfortunately.

These shoes were great for about the first 150 miles, ran the Pittsburgh Marathon in them and felt great. Unfortunately at about 150 miles the left shoe seemed like it got a flat and it started pushing me into more pronation and started wearing the back of the shoe awkwardly towards the outer portion of it, which led to blistering. Not fun.

Fast, Fun Ride

I purchased the men’s PYNRS x Hyperion Max 3 when it was in stock. I’ve been running in this shoe from January 2026 til now periodically, logged 151 miles so far. Honestly, I’ve loved it. I look forward to my runs in this shoe, legs feel great and I’ll use these for 10-13 mile runs. My pace has typically been 30 seconds faster (sometimes faster!) and I know it will be an easier run. I typically wear a wide shoe however I’ve had no discomfort with this shoe in the standard sizing at my typical size. Happy Running!

Excellent Shoes!!

I’ve purchased these shoes in the past, as a runner finding shoes that are comfortable for long distance running that you like you’ll find yourself buying several pairs. These are comfortable and perfect for long runs.

Happy Father’s Day To Me.

I like the structure and the color way of the shoe, nice, However, the way the shoe squeezes the top of my foot, to the point that I can’t complete my run without having to stop every 10-15 steps because of PAIN is unacceptable. I’ve gone from an 11:13 mile to a 17+ mile. No matter how loose I tie them, regular, heel lock, NO tie at all, there’s no avoiding the serious fatigue generated by running in these shoes. I think These were my first pair of brooks ever, and on top of that they were a Father’s Day gift from my wife! Disappointed, I’ve already started the return process. Thanks brooks. I think I’ll save up and go back to Nike. :)

Running In Heels

Worst running shoes ever! Felt like I ran in stiletto heels! The shoe is too unforgiving and hurt my feet. Took it for a 10k run and wanted to rip the shoes off after mile 3

Great Shoe!

Brooks nailed this shoe with a combination of high stack, stability, cushioning and bounce. This shoe has been great for easy runs, long runs and picking up the pace a bit. Plus it looks fantastic doing it! Would buy again.

Excellent Shoe!

I really enjoyed running in the Hyperion Max 1, but didn't like the feel of the Max 2. However, the Max 3 has a wider toe box and adds a nice little spring in my step (even more than the Max 1). Once you get your pace going, they really help you float on by. They help keep my stride balanced and stable with my old runner knees. Very comfortable. I tried running without my arch supports and they still did the trick! No issues (maybe even more comfortable). It takes a few strides to get used to the feel, but once you get your cadence, they react well with you and the pavement. They are not made for walking, and have motivated me this last month to ramp it up!

Very cushioned. So far no issues running on the sidewalk. I wish they had more primary colors I have the super bright yellow ones so at least at night I’m visible

Nice Daily Trainer, Tongue Could Be Better.

The Max 3 is a nice daily trainer. The 3 is much better than the 2. The only issue I’ve had is the tongue can cause some irritation when wearing zero profile socks.
