A well rounded shoe with a slightly larger fit in the toebox than the Levitate 3. Less support along the inside of shoe from toe to heel, but tolerable ( reason 4 stars). Run 5-7 miles and my feet relaxed. I think due to the cushioning my feet are a bit warmer but not too noticeable for my distances.

A little bit of a tight fit but I love these shoes! Provide great support for road running.

I loveeeed the Levitate 2, but they wore out uncharacteristically fast, so I replaced them with the Levitate 4. The 4s have a little bit wider mid-foot/toe box area. But they still have the sock-like ankle opening which I love. I've only put about 20 miles on them so far, but they are very comfortable and I haven't noticed any hot spots/blistering. Let's hope these are longer lasting than my last ones. I will update this review if not.

These are really comfortable once I get them on. But, these shoes fit so tightly that I have to use a shoe horn to get them on. Laces aren't easy to pull up either. I'm hoping they loosen up a bit.

Love the color!! And the ride is fantastic. My only complaint is the toe box is narrower than the previous version. But I still love them

Overall a good shoe. Seems to run small. Very lightweight compared to the previous versions of Levitate. Doesn't seem to have as much cushion. Design is good - have had many compliments.

So far I am enjoying these shoes. It has taken me a bit longer to "break in" but they are comfortable and light. My biggest complaint with these is about the tongue. It is very thin and tends to roll some throughout my run. I also think these are a bit more narrow. I had the levitate 2s before these and loved them and since they are no longer sold I decided to give these a try. I'm overall pleased with them and will continue to train in them!

I did not receive these shoes for free, so here is my honest review: These shoes are great! They fit comfortably and the fabric is breathable, so great for running or working out in the heat. My only complaint is that they do give me blisters if I wear shorter socks (which are my preferred style). My first run I made it not even half a mile before having to return home to change my socks.

Not up to the quality I'm used to from Brooks. Even the shoe laces seem cheap. Start looking at other brands for the first time in years!!!

These look so good and seem to be made of quality materials, but they are wat too narrow for the medium. Wish they were available in wide. Returned, unfortunately.

I love my Brooks, usually but these were an odd fit. After reading the reviews I decided to go up to a 9. (which I do often in other shoes if I don't want the tops of my toes to rub) 9 was too big and 8.5 too small! My last pair of 8.5 Levitate 2’s fit just perfect, not to big not too tight. The 1st thing I noticed with the Levitate 4 is the that tongue is basically part of the knitted shoe with just the last 2” being moveable. This also meant the you could not loosen you laces if the shoe felt too tight. Which unfortunately it did. The new Levitate 4’s feel much more narrow than my old Brooks and I have pretty narrow feel. So in the 9 my heel kept coming up and rubbing on the back and it felt like my toes were swimming. Sent them back for an 8.5 and while the heel moving/rubbing was gone but the tops of my toes felt rubbed raw and my foot felt very tight all over.
Had to send both pairs back unfortunately. I’m sad because I absolutely loved the look of the rose gold cushions and metallic rose gold thread throughout. Really don’t know what shoes to try next!

Moderate support shoe. I personally enjoy the 8 mm heel drop after transitioning from the 12 mm in the Ghost. During initial wear, it doesn't feel broken in enough to run in. After a couple of miles walked in the shoe, I was happy with the support and cushion for running. My biggest drawback with this shoe is the laces. My biggest complaint with these shoes is the laces. They come undone or I find my foot getting caught in the loop and posing a tripping hazard. Of course I questioned my shoe tying skills at first but this has happened multiple occasions and I haven't had this experience with any other shoe in my 10+ years of running.

While the length of the shoe was true to size, the shoe was very tight and difficult to get on; the sock type liner hugged the ankle and I could barely get it on. I’m currently having trouble due to plantar fasciitis, so this shoe won’t work for me. I really liked how it looked though.

Fit well, a bit snug; but no arch support. I’ve purchased several pair of Brooks running shoes & this pair has little to none arch support. But comfortable enough to wear around the house. Would not use these for my running shoes.

These running shoes felt great on the bottom of my feet and the spring was definitely there. However, they came up as an option when I filtered for high arches and I could barely get them on my feet! I loosened the laces and they still cut off my circulation. Great show, but not for those with high arches.

She didn’t like them because she wanted some with an open tongue, this one is sewed down so it doesn’t open tall enough for her foot to fit in the hole.
