Hey guys I'm searching for a new running shoe in preparation for track! I had the Brooks Levitate in mind but i'd like to hear from someone who has them. I'm also trying to give the Vomero 13 a try but I have to wait for those. I have a Road Runners VIP Membership so switching up shoes now and then is common for me.
The Nike Vaporfly 4% might be worth trying.
Word on the street has been mostly positive.
I'm giving the Levitates a shot, first off they run a bit smaller than the Ghosts, if you're used to Brooks shoes - I had to go from my normal 12 to a 12.5. Also they're heavy AF, and feel even heavier in hand since all the weight is in the bottom, the upper seems pretty light.
They feel decent running, probably in my head but they feel a bit faster than my Ghosts, and they feel better the faster I go (but I'm a slow hobby jogger).
Hi,
I tried the Brooks levitate briefly found them okay but a bit heavy and stiff overall. I compared them to my Saucony Freedoms, the saucony's were much more flexible and lighter and seem to have a bit more get up and go - preferred the sauconys to run in. The new Saucony triumph iso 4's just came out you could check them out. You may like to check out the new asics dynaflyte 2 too.
Cheers
Steve

It’s a bit of a heavy shoe, what kind of running do you want to do in them? What made you want to try them?
