This project marked the pivotal moment that launched my journey as a footwear designer—the epitome of "I made it" in my career.

In an effort to cater to a wider range of runners, we introduced the Levitate 5 alongside its counterpart, the Levitate 5 Stealth Fit. Collaboratively, our team honed in on delivering a familiar fit and feel with a particular emphasis on the upper construction, making this project exclusively focused on enhancing the upper.

The Levitate 5 boasts a harmonious fusion of neutral support, cushioning, and energy return, ensuring utmost comfort throughout your runs. Its design articulates motion through a seamless integration of materials and prints across the upper.

Reflecting on the journey, it still astounds me that amidst a wall of options, someone chose this shoe. It's immensely gratifying to know that our team has crafted a product that resonates deeply with runners.
