Love the 3, the 4 is a a lot snugger and not enough toe room. Feels like less cushion than the 3 as well.

Shoes are great! Only is issue is the tongue of the shoe doesn't unlace for ease of slipping your foot in and out. Once your foot is in the shoe it's fantastic though! Just a pain to get there

The shoes were difficult to put on. I read reviews in which the reviewers commented that they needed to use a shoe horn to get them on. This worked for me. The shoes are fine once you get them on but the difficulty in getting them on makes it unlikely I'll purchase that model in the future.

Too tight in the upper and I have a narrow foot. Liked previous versions 2 and 3 better.

My favorite shoes ever are Levitate 2 which sadly are no longer available. I ordered these thinking they would be an ok substitute but the fit is different and not great for my feet so I returned them. Please bring back Levitate 2!

Loved them till about 9 months in and noticed a crack in the sole of each shoe in the same spot that ran all the way across the ball of my foot. I work out in them but not running miles or putting a lot of stain on them.

I love the fit, very comfortable and light. It is supportive not only in the arch, but also around the whole foot--top and sides. However, beware running on slick, wet surfaces. The sole is so slippery that it might as well be made of leather. Use other shoes if running in the rain.

The Levitate 4 shoes are too hard to get off and on. I must use a shoehorn or they won't go on. I prefer my Trace and Anthem 4 Brooks shoes both of which I really like.

These shoes were not easy to insert my feet into because of the snug enclosure. I returned them for this reason alone. Prefer the GTS Adrenaline.

This particular version / model features the tongue sewn in, which makes the fit feel smaller and more restricted ...difficult to put on / pull off.

They seem like nice shoes, but I would recommend getting them a size bigger. I usually get my running shoes a little big and my toes are touching the fronts of these.

Glove-like fit with the elastic, but I couldn’t keep because slightly too narrow just in front of the heel. Not sure why, because none of the other Brooks I’ve tried had this issue.

Once the shoe was on, the level of comfort and support seemed adequate for a decent running shoe. However, my issue with the shoe was the design of the tongue. Instead of being sewn where the first eyelets were located, the tongue was attached about halfway up the lace area. The bridge of my foot made getting the shoe on more of a struggle than I have experienced in the past. I looked into the future and believed the amount of stretching and force needed to insert my foot into the shoe would place a great deal of stress on the stitching, causing early wear and separation.

Very solid shoe as a lightweight trainer. Not sure it holds up of high volume.

The bottom is better than the last version and on my 4th version of the shoe. The tongue is a complete failure for this shoe. It is hard to get the shoe on and tongue right to tie. The feel and cushion while running is better than last version and an improvement. The tongue makes the shoe a complete no go.

I have had many pairs of Brook shoes. I overall like the look here, but they are not as refreshing on my feet as other I have had. I picked these using the online Brook tool.

I'm a Brooks Fan. I've tried several variations of Levitate. Not as supportive or as comfortable as the Ghost.

These are good looking shoes but the fit from the second I put them on felt a bit off. They are narrow in the heel, midfoot and forefoot, with a tight toe box. I took them out for a test and by 2 miles in, my toes were numb. Maybe I needed to size up by half a size? Not sure they would get massively wider if I did. Back to my Pure Flows!

Very narrow shoe. Previously had the Levitate 2 with no issues but had to size up a half size in the levitate 4.
