Customer Reviews Brooks Levitate Stealthfit 5

Nice shoes, I got them because they looked sleek; however, they are extremely uncomfortable. I sometimes wear them with socks for more cushioning but I still get terrible blisters on the back of my feet. My toes rub together and get blisters as well. Probably the most uncomfortable running shoe I?ve ever worn.

I always wear a size 8 in Brooks. This size 8 is a full 1-1.5 size too big. How the stealth fits snug on your foot also makes it impossible to wear socks. As you slide your foot in, it pulls your socks too tight across the toes.

The top of the shoe is suffocating. It?s so tight I could feel my feet pulsating.

it was too tight on my upper foot , hurt my ankles

These were huge. I always wear a size 7 in Brooks sneakers and these fit like a size 8-8.5.

Bought these for the rainbow and returned them right away. Tongue was too high. I didn?t like the stealth fit (normally I wear Glycerines/Adrenalines). Too loose in the heel. I just couldn?t see myself wearing them for anything much less running.

I have loved my "Brooks" in the past, however the arch support is so stiff and not much cushion. I feel like the arch pushes my feet to the edge and I am walking on the edge of my feet all day. I have a flat foot so the stiff arch leaves my feet hurting after a 10 hour shift as a surgical assistant.

I have loved all of my previous Brooks shoes, so I was excited to try out these shoes especially since they were very cute. However, I have been extremely disappointed with this pair. My biggest three problems are 1. The arch of my foot hurts after walking in these shoes for a couple of miles. I am not sure what the problem is. I can walk the same distance in flats or supportive tennis shoes with no problem. 2. The fabric on top of the shoe is too thin for my liking. I often have to re-tie my shoe laces after standing up because they are too tight on my foot after the first attempt. 3. There is too much movement between my heel and the shoe. The first couple of times I wore the shoes, I developed blisters.

Unfortunately not for my feet. They were the most uncomfortable show I?ve ever worn. I only walked around the house a few minutes and decided to send them back. I love my Ghost 14s but these were awful for me.

I?m a nurse and I love Brooks. I bought 2 pairs of levitates and they both squeak. Night shift nurse and squeaky shoes?nope! So disappointed

Was very excited to order these shoes, loved the rainbow colors! When they arrived I was very disappointed. Not comfortable at all. StealthFit is not for me. Mostly disappointed in the color, they look like they would be vibrant, they are not, the colors are more muted. Will be returning.

Very thin. Tight and stiff

I usually love Brooks shoes but these hurt my arches within 5 minutes of wearing. I'm not sure why they were different than my other Brooks. Thankfully, I was able to return for a full refund.

I love the color options for this shoe. This shoe offered little to no support or cushioning. It reminded me of the Keds I used to wear years ago. I suspected when ordering that they wouldn't be the most cushiony shoe and I therefore planned to use them for everyday wear rather than running (I like the current Glycerins for that). But they were too flimsy and loose for that. My foot swam in them and tightening the laces didn't seem to do much, other than create discomfort on the top of my foot. It's too bad because I would like a snug fitting lightweight sneaker like this for daily wear. Lately, it seems that most Brooks models aren't designed for someone with a high arch. I returned them.

These were terribly uncomfortable. Not enough hug on top of the foot to keep the foot in the shoe, even if you tighten the strings a lot. Easily got blisters. I usually get Glycerin and wanted these for speed work, but unfortunately it was a waste of money .

The fit was incredible until I gained momentum and then the show dug into the back of my ankle and left terrible blisters. I would love this in a similar design with a lower aping at the back of the ankle.

Wanted to love these but after one run they gave me horrible blisters. Style was great but the fit wasn?t for me.

I loved my levitates and needed to replace so got these?and was so disappointed in the change to the fit! I have tried multiple times to wear them but have gotten awful blisters in the back of my ankle?the sock fit comes up far too high for me and is super uncomfortable.
