Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Top Performance Unleashed: Brooks Men's Levitate 4 Running Shoe by Brian Cox

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not suitable for human feet - Cheap construction and poor fit

I don't often get the chance to write a 1 star review. I try to make the right decisions, but every once in a while I make such a horrible mistake that a one star rating is the only thing I can do. I have a history with Brooks Levitate. I had three pairs of originals. Since they are hard to find, I decided to buy the latest version. Version 4 should be better than the original, right? Wrong, very wrong. I ordered a pair in my correct size and was surprised that they didn't fit. The toes come out too early which means my big toe is not at the widest part of the shoe. 2. The top of the shoe where the toes are is too low so it puts pressure on my toes. 3. The damping on the fingers ends too soon, leaving your fingers supported only by a thin rubber membrane. Oh oh oh. They are not as soft as the original Levitate. And finally ankle support. The material on the heel is prophylactically thin. There is no ankle support at all. What a disaster. They were clearly not designed for human feet. The original Levitate was an expensive shoe ($150), but the Levitate 4 costs $110. I see everywhere where money has been saved. And each of these savings was achieved through comfort, durability, softness and functionality. They will hurt your legs and won't fit. Complete nonsense.
