Customer Reviews Brooks Levitate 3

I love the look but it definitely does not fit like my previous Levitate shoes, seems smaller and not as comfortable. I bought the same size as past shoes but feel I needed to half size up in these.

The back detail rubs the back of my Achilles. They're alittle narrow, but otherwise very comfortable

This is my first pair of Brooks. I purchased because a friend of mine, an avid runner, raved about the brand. I am impressed with the lightweight feel and cushioned interior. I am not sure whether I will keep the pair because the heel is very high and rubs uncomfortably.

Like many other reviews, I experienced blisters on the back of my heels the first several times I've worn them; hoping this will subside over time. My feet tend to go numb towards the end of my run with these, but not with other shoes. Overall, they're ok - don't LOVE them, don't hate them.

Brooks has been the best running shoe for my small, narrow feet...until now. These shoes actually seem to be doing ok except for the heel. It seems higher than past models I've had (Cadence, Ghost), and on the first three trips around the neighborhood, the top of the shoe has badly rubbed the heel of my smaller foot. I've never had to "break in" a Brooks shoe before, and I sure hope that happens quickly.

This is a super-comfy shoe and seems to provide the perfect amount of cushion for high-impact exercise. My only area of concern is that the back of the shoe rubs very heavily against my heel and created a large blister. I am still trying to find the "right" socks that are thick enough to prevent further blistering but not so bulky as to affect my exercise.

i didn't like the elastic heel back. It irritated my ankle. Otherwise comfortable though.

These are comfortable. I gave it three stars because the back heel section presses on my foot. The arch support is not as comfortable as my adrenaline sneakers.

I really like the look but unfortunately are not padded enough for what I was looking for and ended up with knee pain. I am not a professional runner but love to run 8-10 km a few times a week on roads...

Cute shoe, love glove feeling, but it's a high platform and cushion feels plasticy.

Like other reviews noted- the fit at the back of the heel is uncomfortable and painful to break in. However, I love the rest of the fit of the shoe, so I definitely want to make it work! I'll hang on to these.

These are comfortable for the most part, but the back is a bit high on my ankle and rubs. I live in Blister City if I don't lube up before a run.

The back ate into my Achilles and bothered me. The show feels tighter than the Levitate 2. I hope that the 4s come out to be comfortable. Returned the 3s. I did love the color!

I love the look but it has a high back that digs into my heel and has cut the back of it.

feels tight, my feet hurt and go numb 10 minutes into my workout

I just didn't love the sock fit at the top. I felt like it rubbed my foot and agitated the skin around my heel. It didn't cause any bleeding but its not the most comfortable shoe.

Ran a bit big, so had to tighten the laces more, which folds the "tongue". Since the shoe doesn't slide over the tongue, as it is built into the shoe, it makes it all bungee on the top of the foot. Also, the way that it comes up higher in the back digs into my Achilles

Super cute shoe and I love the style, but the padding at the back of the ankle was not enough to stop it from rubbing on my skin.

High back of shoe pushes into my Achilles, causing open sores. I'm hoping that with increased use and protecting the area with some tape, that it will improve once the shoes are broken in. I will not order these again. The rest of the shoe fits well and is very cushioned and comfortable.

The levitate 3 is comfortable however the heel is to high and causes blisters. I keep trying but have not been able to wear without developing blisters on my achilles. I will probably return to the Ghost and donate these.

I buy Brooks because they run wide. My older Levitate shoes are my daily go-to shoe. They are wide enough and had some give on the side. These are more narrow and less flexible. I lost two toenails after my first 5K in these shoes. The three stars are for the color design. I will never wear them again, but they are beautiful.

Shoe Tounge is so thin that it bites the ankle area while walking.
