    Launch Season – Brooks Hyperion Elite 4 PB

    by Lionel Brahim Brodie III

     

    Debatable:

     

    I was having a conversation on Instagram last week about wearing Carbons In The Wild. A very prominent A–List celebrity was wearing a top–flight super shoe with a pair of dress slacks, polo shirt, and cardigan. If you know me, this is my VIBE! Disrupting the status quo, right? But.....is this behavior proper, or functional?

     

    4 decades ago, if you purchased a basketball shoe endorsed by the Greatest Of All Time – and actually played basketball in them – it was generally accepted that (1) you had money, and (2) you just wanted the best of the best for your feet and hoop game. Today, if you're buying those same models to play in, most would look at you like, "what are you doing? You're going to play in those?!?!?". This is where many have landed with the Carbon Plate for Casual Wear debate. As great as the Brooks Hyperion Elite 4 PB, for example, would look with a pair of black or tan slacks, grey polo, and any color cardigan....."Brodie, what are you doing?"

     

     

    Who's right in this scenario is subjectively up for debate.

     


    Undebatable:

     

    The Hyperion Elite 4 PB checks all the boxes! It's incredibly lightweight, super springy (like, I wish I could use profanity here super springy), and extremely fast. You can expect to see this shoe on a lot of race podiums during this 2025 Running Season. The Elite also has a customizable carbon fiber propulsion plate, depending on the size, decreasing the weight of the plate while optimizing its bending stiffness to the relative size of the runner.

     

     

    The Elite 4 PB will be a great addition to any fast training/fast racing program. Compared to its predecessor, the Hyperion Elite 3, the Hyperion Elite 4:

     

      

    – 11% Lighter
    – +14% Greater Energy Return
    – 7% Softer
    – +18% Greater Max Displacement (“compress & return")

     


    New in the latest version is 100% PEBA midsole DNA GOLD, which is Brooks most lightweight and responsive midsole ever! Also new is the TPU–coated Flat Knit upper — super lightweight, breathable, but has strength for locked–in fit.

     

    Yes, the Hyperion Elite 4 PB checks all the boxes. This.....is not up for debate.

     

     

    The Tech Talk:

     

    The Brooks Hyperion Elite 4 PB, featuring innovative tech like 100% PEBA cushioning and a carbon fiber tuned propulsion plate, offers a competitive edge for racing.
