Customer Reviews Brooks Launch 4

This shoe did provide the lateral support I was looking for. The toe area is great for my wider foot. Colors are great. Could use some more cushion in ball of one's foot region. But all in all I like it.

Great shoe! This is my 4th pair. If I were you, I'd order a half size up on the Launch 4. Even vs the Lunch 3. It seems they have more plush cushion than the last model.

Great shoes and fabulous design of a koi (fish) wrapped around your foot. Very cool especially for Brooks which tend to be conservative. Brooks run small, too me. 1/2 to full size more that I usually buy.

I love Brooks sneakers. I had a great pair that i bought over a year ago and they latest a long time. Not only that, they were lightweight and gave my feet good stability which is perfect for power walking or running. I am equally happy so far with these shoes. The size was perfect for my feet so, I can say they run neither to small or two large. I would highly recommend this shoes to any runner or walker or for the gym. The colors were a bit more vibrant than expected, but I love the just the same. And they were a great price for good running/walking shoes.

I've worn all 4 versions of the Launch and love them. These are great but I noticed they seem to be slightly smaller, I'd recommend ordering a 1/2 size larger.

I've learned to always order one size up for shoes that you plan to run or do serious walking in. These are the most supportive and best athletic shoes I've ever owned. They look amazing also. I'm ordering another pair.

Great arch support. Lightweight shoe with a nice wide toe box.

Great shoe straight from the box...I wore them all day and no pain. Once again thanks Zappos for great customer service and next day delivery...

I buy Brooks because they are recommend by my foot doc. They are perfect for running, lifting, and my bootcamp class. The Launch's have stabilized my foot and enabled me to stay as active as I want

Great for running. Brooks are some of the best athletic shoes.

Love these shoes but they run at least a 1/2 size small. I always wear a size 8 in every shoe but the size 8 in this shoe was very tight and my toes were to the end. I am returning and ordering an 8.5 because I do love the shoes.

Really great running shoe. Comfort and support

I usually wear 9.5 in brooks but should have gotten a 10

Love these shoes. Super comfortable and plenty of support for me 10,000 steps each day.

Love these shoes! Ran a 1/2 marathon after running only 3-5 miles in them. More cushioning in the forefoot than the Launch 3's.

I am a diehard Brooks fan, and the Launch line has been my favorite (well, except for the original Launch 1 - ugh). I feel like this is the best fit for me yet. I have a narrower heel and a wider toe. I ordered the same size that I wore in Launch 3, and the fit feels right. I love the weight of these - so light. I run about 30 miles a week and these last me about 300 miles before they die. I typically rotate 2 or 3 pairs. I, too, wish they had more colors - and more marls! Love those.

My favorite running shoes! Love the peacock design... So fun!

Have always worn the Brooks Cascadia, which I love, but wanted a lighter weight shoe for the gym. I love this shoe - so comfortable. I have high arches and have had no trouble with this shoe. I have worn for several weeks and no problems.

I'm a newcomer to the Launch. I've been wearing Brooks Ravenna 5s for years, but found I need less stability in my running shoes now. After going to a local running store and being fitted, I decided on the Launch. The right shoe of the first pair I got had a very stiff tongue seam and it rubbed the top of my toes raw on the first run I did with them. Not awesome. However! I'm pleased to say that Zappos customer service was super helpful in helping me exchange them quickly, and the second pair I received did not have this issue. Without the rubbing, I have absolutely no complaints about the shoe. It's very lightweight, and fits my foot well. I get the stability I need, without being weighed down. The Launch does run smaller than the Ravennas, so while I wear a 7.5 in everyday shoes I had to go up all the way to an 8.5 in the Launch.

I bought my first pair of Brooks and love them! Having a foot problem, I am going to physical therapy and the Brooks shoes (lAUNCH) were suggested for me to buy and wear every day. Therapist said they had great arch support and they do. I will be buying a second pair soon.

Great running sneaker! It's supportive yet flexible. Every time I attempt to try a new brand of sneaker, I come right back to Brooks.

These tennis shoes fit perfectly and are extremely comfortable. The shipping was very quick and I am very pleased with the whole process of ordering from Zappos.

I'm not a trendy sneaker fan, but these are some very good looking shoes. I get lots of comments about the adorable fish pattern. Probably some of my favorite shoes.

Just did first run in these and they are great!

Loyal Brooks wearer for years - loved the Ghost until they changed their lacing system a year or two ago, so gave the Launch a try (Launch 3). Found I liked it more than the Ghost, had a little more room in the toe box, good support. After about 350-400 miles on Launch 3, shoes were worn out and tired so I've just bought the Launch 4 in Anthracite / Lime Punch. Love the color: a little black and grey with an aqua/teal color. Comfy too. Started with a 7.5, which is my normal running shoe size (and every pair of Brooks I have ever bought), but my toes were at the end and squashed. Wearing a size 8 now and lots more room. Definitely would say you should size up. If you're considering Brooks, I say give it a try - I am sure you won't be disappointed. These shoes are made for the average runner, so if you have an ankle injury or need more support in the foot, you might want to try another pair of brooks. After switching to the Launch, I found the Ghost to have too much support around the ankle for free movement of my foot and ability to shift direction quickly. Bottom line - love the Launch shoes and highly recommend.
