This is the Brooks Hyperion Max 4 and it looks almost exactly like the Brooks Hyperion Max 3. They’ve both got a peba top layer, a daily training bottom layer, and a notch on the side. They have nearly identical geometries, nearly identical weights, and the same giant plastic stability plate. So what’s up with this update? It’s time to lace up the Hyperion Max 4 and take it for a run.
